In-depth sequence-function characterization reveals multiple paths to enhance phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity [PDF]
ABSTRACTPhenylalanine ammonia-lyases (PALs) deaminate L-phenylalanine to trans-cinnamic acid and ammonium and have idespread application in chemo-enzymatic synthesis, agriculture, and medicine. In particular, the PAL from Anabaena variabilis (Trichormus variabilis) has garnered significant attention as the active ingredient in Pegvaliase®, the only FDA-

The phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) gene family shows a gymnosperm-specific lineage [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundPhenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) is a key enzyme of the phenylpropanoid pathway that catalyzes the deamination of phenylalanine to trans-cinnamic acid, a precursor for the lignin and flavonoid biosynthetic pathways. To date, PAL genes have been less extensively studied in gymnosperms than in angiosperms.

It has been suggested that salicylic acid (SA) is a signal in acquired resistance to pathogens in several plants. Also, it has been suggested that infestation of plants causes an increase in the activity of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), a key phenolic biosynthesis enzyme.

Enzyme substitution therapy with the phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) is a new approach to the treatment of patients with phenylketonuria (PKU). This enzyme is responsible for the conversion of phenylalanine to trans-cinnamic acid.

Coumarins exhibit many biological activities and are the main specialised metabolites of Peucedanum praeruptorum Dunn, an important plant used in traditional Chinese medicine. In preliminary studies, we cloned several genes involved in coumarin biosynthesis in P. praeruptorum, such as 4-coumarate: CoA ligase (4CL), p-coumaroyl CoA 2'-hydroxylase (C2'H),

Activity of Phenylalanine Ammonia-Lyase (PAL) and Concentrations of Anthocyanins and Phenolics in Developing Strawberry Fruit [PDF]
Studies on regulation of production of phenolics in strawberry (Fragaria X ananassa Duch,) fruit were initiated by monitoring phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity and levels of anthocyanins, flavonoids, tannins, and other soluble phenols throughout fruit ontogeny in `Tillikum'.

The synthesis of phenylpropanoids is considered one of the plants' most important assimilatory pathways. In higher plants, the amino acid phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL; EC 4.3.1.5) is a substrate of primary and secondary metabolic pathways. This study is novel since PAL genes have not been documented in Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek.

Jute is one of the important ligno-cellulose bast fiber crops next to cotton. High lignin content in jute fiber makes hindrances during spinning in the textile industry. Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), encoded by multigene family, is the first enzyme in the phenylpropanoid pathway which involved in biosynthesis of different secondary metabolites ...
