Non-enzymatic degradation of aliphatic Brassicaceae isothiocyanates during aqueous heat treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
Glucosinolate-derived isothiocyanates are valuable for human health as they exert health promoting effects. Here, the stability and reactivity of 12 different isothiocyanates during aqueous heating at 100 °C and pH 5 to pH 8 were investigated.

Glucosinolate-derived isothiocyanates impact mitochondrial function in fungal cells and elicit an oxidative stress response necessary for growth recovery

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Glucosinolates are brassicaceous secondary metabolites that have long been considered as chemical shields against pathogen invasion. Isothiocyanates, are glucosinolate-breakdown products that have negative effects on the growth of various fungal species.

The phytopathogenic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum detoxifies plant glucosinolate hydrolysis products via an isothiocyanate hydrolase

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Some plants produce toxic isothiocyanates that protect them against pathogens. Here, Chen et al. show that the plant pathogenic fungus Sclerotinia sclerotiorum converts isothiocyanates into non-toxic compounds via glutathione conjugation and, more ...
