Structural analysis of rice Os4BGlu18 monolignol β-glucosidase.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
Monolignol glucosides are storage forms of monolignols, which are polymerized to lignin to strengthen plant cell walls. The conversion of monolignol glucosides to monolignols is catalyzed by monolignol β-glucosidases.

Synergistic Enhancement of Antioxidant Activity in Arbutus unedo Leaf Extract by Biological Fluids: Implications for Functional and Nutraceutical Applications

open access: yesBiotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examined the effect of biological fluids (saliva, blood plasma, and urine) on the antioxidant capacity of an aqueous extract derived from Arbutus unedo leaves. The extract displayed a concentration‐dependent reducing activity in the ferric reducing power assay (IC50 = 292 ± 7.54 µg/mL) and phosphomolybdenum assays (IC50 = 461.67 ± 4.

Hidden O‐Deglycosylation Activity Triggers O → C Rearrangement for Aryl Di‐C‐Glucoside Formation by the C‐Glycosyltransferase From Fortunella crassifolia

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Here, we uncovered an unexpected O‐deglycosylation activity of the C glycosyltransferase (FcCGT), forming phloretin (1) from phloretin 2'‐O‐glucoside (2). In the presence of UDP, FcCGT catalyzes the O→C rearrangement to yield nothofagin (3). Upon additional UDP‐glucose, further C‐glycosylation occurs, forming phloretin 3',5'‐di‐C‐glucoside (4 ...

The phenolic complex in flaxseed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Flaxseed is the richest plant source of the lignan secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG). In flaxseed, SDG exists in an oligomeric structure with 3-hydroxy-3-methyl glutaric acid (HMGA) forming a phenolic complex together with p-coumaric acid and ...
