Identification and Expression Analysis of the Terpenoid Synthase Gene Family in Dendrobium nobile

Journal of Food Biochemistry, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Terpenoid synthase (TPS) is a crucial enzyme catalyzing terpenoid synthesis in plants. However, the TPS gene family and its expression patterns in different growth stages of Dendrobium nobile remain unexplored. This study aims to systematically identify and analyze TPS family members using whole genome sequencing. Results revealed the identification of

Novel insights into structure–function mechanism and tissue‐specific expression profiling of full‐lengthdxr gene fromCymbopogon winterianus

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 325-334, January 01, 2015., 2015
The 1‐deoxy‐d‐xylulose‐5‐phosphate reductoisomerase (DXR; EC1.1.1.267), an NADPH‐dependent reductase, plays a pivotal role in the methylerythritol 4‐phosphate pathway (MEP), in the conversion of 1‐deoxy‐d‐xylulose‐5‐phosphate (DXP) into MEP.

Inhibition of human mevalonate kinase by allosteric inhibitors of farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 1320-1339, August 2024.
Mevalonate kinase constitutes a key regulatory step in the mevalonate pathway, an established drug target for its role in the synthesis of isoprenoid molecules. Using a structure‐based rational approach, we identified several synthetic compounds that inhibit mevalonate kinase with nanomolar potency.
