Protein–phenolic interactions and reactions: Discrepancies, challenges, and opportunities
Abstract Although noncovalent interactions and covalent reactions between phenolic compounds and proteins have been investigated across diverse scientific disciplines, a comprehensive understanding and identification of their products remain elusive. This review will initially outline the chemical framework and, subsequently, delve into unresolved or ...

4-Pentadecylpyridine: A Competitive Polyphenoloxidase Inhibitor
Abstract 4-Pentadecylpyridine was isolated from plums infected by Taphrina pruni. This fungal metabolite has been tested for its effect on polyphenoloxidase, using the polyphenoloxidase-catalysed addition of L-proline to 4-methylcatechol in a chromogenic assay The resulting data prove that 4-pentadecylpyridine is a competitive inhibitor
