Engineering 2‐Pyrone‐4,6‐Dicarboxylic Acid Production Reveals Metabolic Plasticity of Poplar

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1398-1413, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Woody biomass is a promising source of fermentable sugars for biofuels and bio‐based chemicals, but its industrial use is limited by the costly biorefinery process. A viable strategy to reduce costs involves enhancing both biomass processability and the generation of high‐value co‐products.

Reducing the Sinapine Levels of Camelina sativa Seeds Through Targeted Genome Editing of REF1

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 3, Page 1839-1865, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Sinapine (O‐sinapoyl choline) is the major phenolic metabolite typically found in the oil‐rich seeds of Brassicaceae such as Camelina sativa and Brassica napus. It imparts a bitter taste to the seeds as a defence mechanism against herbivores, but it also renders them less palatable to livestock.

Sustainable Porous Carbon Derived from Lignin for High‐Performance CO2 Capture

Chemistry – An Asian Journal, Volume 21, Issue 4, 25 February 2026.
Lignin‐derived porous carbons offer a sustainable and scalable route for high‐performance CO2 capture. By tailoring ultramicroporosity, hierarchical pore networks, and heteroatom functionalities through chemical activation, templating, and hybrid methods, adsorption capacity and selectivity can be optimized. This review correlates.

Metabolomics of dates (Phoenix dactylifera) reveals a highly dynamic ripening process accounting for major variation in fruit composition [PDF]

, 2015
BACKGROUND: Dates are tropical fruits with appreciable nutritional value. Previous attempts at global metabolic characterization of the date metabolome were constrained by small sample size and limited geographical sampling.

Electrochemical Sensing and Assessment of Parabens in Hydro- Alcoholic Solutions and Water Using a Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode

Sensors, 2008
In this paper, the electrochemical behaviour of several parabens preservatives, i.e. esters of p-hydroxybenzoic acid, methyl-, ethyl- and propyl-4-hydroxybenzoates as methyl-, ethyl- and propyl-parabens (MB, EB, and PB), has been investigated at a ...

4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase in malaria parasites and enhances atovaquone efficacy

FEBS Letters, Volume 600, Issue 2, Page 251-266, January 2026.
Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...

Genome‐wide association study and pathway analysis to dissect the genetic control of stay‐green in a Brazilian panel of tropical maize inbred lines

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract The stay‐green trait enables plants to sustain photosynthesis under severe biotic and abiotic stresses and is positively correlated with grain yield in maize (Zea mays L). Despite its importance, information on the inheritance and genetic basis of stay‐green in tropical maize remains limited. This study used genome‐wide association study (GWAS)

Purification and characterization of UDP-glucose: hydroxycoumarin 7-O-glucosyltransferase, with broad substrate specificity from tobacco cultured cells [PDF]

, 2000
The enzyme UDP-glucose: hydroxycoumarin 7-O-glucosyltransferase (CGTase), which catalyzes the formation of scopolin from scopoletin, was purified approximately 1200-fold from a culture of 2,4-D-treated tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv.
