Predicting the substrate specificity of a glycosyltransferase implicated in the production of phenolic volatiles in tomato fruit [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The volatile compounds that constitute the fruit aroma of ripe tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) are often sequestered in glycosylated form. A homology-based screen was used to identify the gene SlUGT5, which is a member of UDP-glycosyltransferase 72 family ...

A GmeIF2B5‐GmPRX4 Regulatory Axis Divergently Governs Drought‐Lignin and Salt‐Ion Homeostasis in Soybean

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 4, Page 2405-2418, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Abiotic stresses severely constrain soybean productivity worldwide. Here we demonstrate that gmeif2b5 (eukaryotic initiation factors) mutants confer dual stress tolerance through coordinated mechanisms. Integrative RNA‐Seq and protein interaction analyses revealed that gmeif2b5 mutants increase lignin deposition to increase drought resilience ...

In situ analysis of lignins in transgenic tobacco reveals a differential impact of individual transformations on the spatial patterns of lignin deposition at the cellular and subcellular levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Using tobacco transgenic lines altered in the monolignol biosynthetic pathway and which differ in their lignin profiles we have evaluated lignin deposition at the cellular and subcellular levels using several microanalytical techniques.

Identification and characterization of BAHD hydroxycinnamoyltransferases in the fern Neoblechnum brasiliense

open access: yesThe Plant Journal, Volume 126, Issue 1, April 2026.
Significance Statement Nine BAHD acyltransferases have been identified and characterized in the fern Neoblechnum brasiliense transferring hydroxycinnamoyl units onto various alcohol and amine acceptor substrates. Kinetic characterization showed that shikimic and quinic acids for ester formation as well as 3‐hydroxyanthranilic acid and tryptamine for ...

Parasitic Plant–Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 16, 18 March 2026.
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Analysis of a modern hybrid and an ancient sugarcane implicates a complex interplay of factors in affecting recalcitrance to cellulosic ethanol production [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Abundant evidence exists to support a role for lignin as an important element in biomass recalcitrance. However, several independent studies have also shown that factors apart from lignin are also relevant and overall, the relative importance of ...

Breaking Down Lignin: A Macromolecule's Path to the Nanoscale

open access: yesAdvanced Energy and Sustainability Research, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
This section highlights lignin's critical role as a sustainable, multifunctional precursor for nanomaterial design. Its unique structure and abundance enable the creation of lignin‐based, lignin‐derived, and hybrid nanomaterials with tunable properties. Emphasis is placed on lignin's potential to drive innovation in nanotechnology, offering ecofriendly

Biological conversion of aromatic monolignol compounds by a Pseudomonas isolate from sediments of the Baltic Sea

open access: yesAMB Express, 2018
Bacterial strains were isolated from the sediments of the Baltic Sea using ferulic acid, guaiacol or a lignin-rich softwood waste stream as substrate. In total nine isolates were obtained, five on ferulic acid, two on guaiacol and two on a lignin-rich ...
