Identification of transcription factors controlling the expression of paclitaxel biosynthesis genes in cambial meristematic cells of Taxus cuspidata [PDF]
Paclitaxel is an antitumor diterpene from Taxus spp. that binds tubulin, stabilizes microtubules and induces apoptosis in dividing human cells. It was originally isolated from the bark of Taxus brevifolia and approved for clinic uses by the FDA in ...
