Long-term dynamics of monoterpene synthase activities, monoterpene storage pools and emissions in boreal Scots pine [PDF]

open access: yesBiogeosciences, 2018
Seasonal variations in monoterpene emissions from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) are well documented, and emissions are often shown to follow the incident temperatures due to effects on compound volatility.

α-Terpineol, a natural monoterpene: A review of its biological properties

open access: yesOpen Chemistry, 2018
Terpineols are monocyclic monoterpene tertiary alcohols which are naturally present in plant species. There are five common isomers of terpineols, alpha-, beta-, gamma-, delta- and terpinen-4-ol, of which α-terpineol and its isomer terpinen-4-ol are the ...

Structural Basis of Catalysis in the Bacterial Monoterpene Synthases Linalool Synthase and 1,8-Cineole Synthase

open access: yesACS Catalysis, 2017
Terpenoids form the largest and stereochemically most diverse class of natural products, and there is considerable interest in producing these by biocatalysis with whole cells or purified enzymes, and by metabolic engineering.

Onset of photosynthesis in spring speeds up monoterpene synthesis and leads to emission bursts

open access: yesPlant, Cell and Environment, 2015
Emissions of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOC) by boreal evergreen trees have strong seasonality, with low emission rates during photosynthetically inactive winter and increasing rates towards summer.

Transcriptome analysis identifies key gene LiMYB305 involved in monoterpene biosynthesis in Lilium ‘Siberia’

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Lilium is a popular cut flower that is highly favored by consumers due to its snowy white color and strong fragrance, which originates from the release of monoterpenes.

Reconstitution of monoterpene indole alkaloid biosynthesis in genome engineered Nicotiana benthamiana

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Monoterpene indole alkaloids (MIAs) are a diverse class of plant natural products that include a number of medicinally important compounds. We set out to reconstitute the pathway for strictosidine, a key intermediate of all MIAs, from central metabolism ...
