Histopathological Effects on the Eye Development During Perinatal Growth of Albino Rats Maternally Treated with Experimental Phenylketonuria During Pregnancy [PDF]
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a genetic disorder that is characterized by an inability of the body to utilize the essential amino acid, phenylalanine. The disease results from a deficiency in phenylalanine hydroxylase, the enzyme catalyzing the conversion of ...

Molecular phenotyping of the pal1 and pal2 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana reveals far-reaching consequences on phenylpropanoid, amino acid, and carbohydrate metabolism [PDF]
The first enzyme of the phenylpropanoid pathway, Phe ammonia-lyase (PAL), is encoded by four genes in Arabidopsis thaliana. Whereas PAL function is well established in various plants, an insight into the functional significance of individual gene family ...

GmMYB4 Positively Regulates Isoflavone Biosynthesis via the GmMAPK6‐GmMYB4‐MBW Module in Soybean
ABSTRACT Isoflavones, a class of bioactive compounds predominantly found in leguminous plants, are largely responsible for their beneficial effects on human health. Although MYB transcription factors (TFs) are known to be crucial regulators of isoflavone biosynthesis in soybean, the precise mechanisms underlying their regulatory functions remain poorly

Systematic literature review of the somatic comorbidities experienced by adults with phenylketonuria
Background Phenylketonuria (PKU) is an inborn error of phenylalanine (Phe) metabolism that, if untreated, causes Phe accumulation in the brain leading to neurophysiologic alterations and poor outcomes.

Conventional Phenylketonuria Treatment
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is caused by a deficient activity of enzyme phenylalanine (Phe) hydroxylase, which results in high Phe blood concentration, which is toxic to the central nervous system.

ABSTRACT Anthocyanins are plant pigments that contribute to fruit coloration and nutritional quality, yet the coordinated regulation of their accumulation in both peel and flesh remains elusive. Here, we present a haplotype‐resolved genome of Malus cv. ‘Royalty’, a model cultivar with consistently red peel and flesh. A zinc‐finger transcription factor,

Reducing the Sinapine Levels of Camelina sativa Seeds Through Targeted Genome Editing of REF1
ABSTRACT Sinapine (O‐sinapoyl choline) is the major phenolic metabolite typically found in the oil‐rich seeds of Brassicaceae such as Camelina sativa and Brassica napus. It imparts a bitter taste to the seeds as a defence mechanism against herbivores, but it also renders them less palatable to livestock.
