Inherited metabolic epilepsies–established diseases, new approaches

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Inherited metabolic epilepsies (IMEs) represent the inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs) in which epilepsy is a prevailing component, often determining other neurodevelopmental outcomes associated with the disorder. The different metabolic pathways affected by individual IMEs are the basis of their rarity and heterogeneity.

Effects of virus infection on release of volatile organic compounds from insect-damaged bean, Phaseolus vulgaris [PDF]

, 2003
Insects can serve as important vectors of plant pathogens, especially viruses. Insect feeding on plants causes the systemic release of a wide range of plant volatile compounds that can serve as an indirect plant defense by attracting natural enemies of ...

Bioactive Compounds Derived From Natural Foods Against Metabolic Syndrome and the Advances of Resveratrol and Caffeic Acid in Microbial Cell Factory Production: A Review

Food Frontiers, EarlyView.
Metabolic syndrome is characterized by abdominal obesity, hyperglycemia, dyslipidemia, and hypertension. Bioactive compounds extracted from herbs, tea, and coffee using microbial cell factories, particularly resveratrol and caffeic acid, have demonstrated remarkable potential in the management of metabolic syndrome, offering innovative solutions for ...

Overexpression of Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase in Transgenic Roots of Coleus blumei Alters Growth and Rosmarinic Acid Synthesis

Food Technology and Biotechnology, 2011
Most natural phenolic compounds in plants are derived from trans-cinnamic acid, formed by the nonoxidative deamination of L-phenylalanine by phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (EC 4.3.1.24). Although a strict line between primary and secondary metabolism cannot

ZZE-Configuration of chromophore ß-153 in C-phycocyanin from Mastigocladus laminosus [PDF]

, 1987
The photochemistry of C-phycocyanin has been studied after denaturation in the dark. It shows an irreversible reaction which has characteristics of a Ζ,Ζ,Ε- to Z,Z,Z-isomerization of dihydrobilins. Its amplitude depends on the reaction conditions, with

Thermal Bifunctionality of Bacterial Phenylalanine Aminomutase and Ammonia Lyase Enzymes [PDF]

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 2012
Enzymatic thermal switch: The bacterial 4-methylideneimidazol-5-one (MIO)- dependent enzymes AdmH and EncP are shown to display remarkable thermal bifunctionality: they act as mutases (blue graph) at lower temperatures but with lyase (red graph) activity predominant at higher temperatures. This temperature-dependent switch in enzyme class also explains

A review of the postharvest biochemical, biophysical and biological properties of 61 cultivars of North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) fruit

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Fruit from the North American pawpaw (Asimina triloba) is unfamiliar to many as a food crop and botanically unusual because it is the northernmost genus and only temperate member of the tropical Annonaceae family. It is the largest edible fruit native to North America.

Root Growth and Enzymes Related to the Lignification of Maize Seedlings Exposed to the Allelochemical L-DOPA

The Scientific World Journal, 2013
L-3,4-Dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) is a known allelochemical exuded from the roots of velvet bean (Mucuna pruriens L. Fabaceae). In the current work, we analyzed the effects of L-DOPA on the growth, the activities of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL),

Methyl jasmonate fumigation enhances crop yield and delays physiochemical quality changes by modulating the secondary metabolism in green bell pepper

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The green bell pepper (Capsicum annuum L.), of the ‘Lamuyo’ type, is a highly valued vegetable owing to its excellent organoleptic and nutritional properties. However, these properties are subject to deterioration during postharvest storage, which in turn limits the shelf‐life of the pepper fruit.

Influence of continuous and pulsed light on the yield and phytochemical composition of Capsicum annuum L. cv. ‘Padrón’

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Sweet pepper (Capsicum annuum) is of considerable socio‐economic importance and is among the most widely cultivated vegetables worldwide, occupying more than 20 000 km2. Light‐emitting diodes (LEDs), applied in continuous or pulsed modes, can increase yield and improve the phytochemical composition in indoor production systems ...
