Cell‐Specific Expression and Cellular Compartmental Regulation in Camptothecin Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant secondary metabolites such as monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) show tightly regulated biosynthesis and accumulation in specific organelles of distinct cell types. However, the cell‐specific expression patterns of anticancer MIA camptothecin biosynthetic genes in Ophiorrhiza pumila and the regulatory mechanisms of camptothecin ...

MYB Factors: Hubs of Plant Stress and Hormone Crosstalk

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MYB transcription factors function as main regulatory hubs that integrate environmental signals with multi‐hormonal pathways to synchronize plant growth, metabolism and stress responses. This review delineates the regulatory roles of MYB in the signalling pathway of salicylic acid, jasmonic acid, ethylene and abscisic acid signalling.

Biosynthetically‐Inspired Oxidative Cleavage Platform Enables Rapid Access to Diverse and Architecturally Complex Chemotypes From Indole Alkaloids

ChemistryEurope
High‐throughput screening (HTS) of compound libraries is a primary driver in the discovery of therapeutic leads. HTS libraries are largely composed of structurally simple organic compounds bearing few, if any, complex molecules which limits the kinds of ...

Methyl Jasmonate Seed Priming Mitigates the Defence‐Growth Trade‐Off and Tailors Plant Response to Specific Pests

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Seed defence priming is emerging as a novel, cost‐efficient and environmentally safe tool for pest management. It has been proposed as a means to uncouple the defence‐growth trade‐off in plants by enhancing defence responses with minimal fitness costs, but the mechanisms underlying this role remain elusive.

Deciphering Role of Endophytes in Plant Defences and Biotic Stress Resilience Across Families

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant families generate distinct repertoires of specialised metabolites that govern their biotic interactions. Endophytes strengthen host plant defence mechanisms and tolerance to biotic challenges by upregulating metabolite biosynthesis, modifying precursor compounds into more potent forms, or by directly synthesising analogous defence ...

Water Deficit Does Not Compromise the Resistance to Insect Herbivores in Plants Associated With Fungal Endophytes Able to Produce Bioactive Alkaloids

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plants growing in nature are exposed to multiple abiotic and biotic stressors that sometimes occur sequentially. We hypothesised that drought will not compromise the resistance levels to herbivores when plants are associated with Epichloë endophytes able to produce bioactive alkaloids. Lolium perenne plants without (nil) and with Epichloë LpTG‐

Advances in organic UV filters for sunscreens over the past decade

Photochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Highlighted organic UV filter frameworks that have been described for sunscreens over the past decade divided into three groups: derivatives of or inspired by approved organic UV filters, natural product‐based compounds, and miscellaneous. Abstract Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a major environmental factor in photoaging, erythema, and skin cancer ...

Unveiling the impact of nitrogen deficiency on alkaloid synthesis in konjac corms (Amorphophallus muelleri Blume)

BMC Plant Biology
Background Konjac corms are known for their alkaloid content, which possesses pharmacological properties. In the primary cultivation areas of konjac, nitrogen deficiency is a common problem that significantly influences alkaloid synthesis.
