Auxin and tryptophan homeostasis are facilitated by the ISS1/VAS1 aromatic aminotransferase in arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) plays a critical role in regulating numerous aspects of plant growth and development. While there is much genetic support for tryptophan-dependent (Trp-D) IAA synthesis pathways, there is little genetic evidence for tryptophan ...

Transcriptional control of monolignol biosynthesis in Pinus taeda: factors affecting monolignol ratios and carbon allocation in phenylpropanoid metabolism.

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 2002
Transcriptional profiling of the phenylpropanoid pathway in Pinus taeda cell suspension cultures was carried out using quantitative real time PCR analyses of all known genes involved in the biosynthesis of the two monolignols, p-coumaryl and coniferyl alcohols (lignin/lignan precursors). When the cells were transferred to a medium containing 8% sucrose

SWP4.1 : Functionalisation of cellulosic fibres : characterization of laccase oxidation of lignosulfonates in presence of lignocellulosic substrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Laccases (EC 1.10.3.2) are multi–copper oxidases, which catalyze one electron oxidation of a wide range of inorganic and organic substances, coupled with one four-electron reduction of oxygen to water (Xu 1996).

Extraction of Hemicelluloses by Acid Catalyzed Hydrolysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The techniques of chemical hydrolysis can be employed in order to separate polysaccharides from wood in a form of monosaccharides. Various acids can be used as the catalyst such as mineral acids and organic acids at certain operational conditions, i.e ...
