Purification and Characterization of S-Linalool Synthase, an Enzyme Involved in the Production of Floral Scent in Clarkia breweri

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1995
S-Linalool is one of the volatiles emitted by Clarkia breweri Grey [Green] flowers to attract its moth pollinator. S-Linalool synthase, the enzyme that stereoselectively converts the ubiquitous C10 intermediate GPP to S-linalool, is abundant in stigmata of freshly opened flowers, and it was purified to > 95% homogeneity by anion-exchange and ...

Inhibitory effect of thyme and basil essential oils, carvacrol, thymol, estragol, linalool and p-cymene towards Shigella sonnei and S. flexneri

Food Microbiology, 2004
There are a few reports on the antimicrobial activity of essential oils or their major constituents towards Shigella sp. The antimicrobial effect of basil and thyme essential oil and its major constituents thymol, p-cymene, estragol, linalool, and carvacrol was determined using the agar well diffusion assay. Thyme essential oil and thymol and carvacrol

Quantitation of (R)- and (S)-Linalool in Beer Using Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) in Combination with a Stable Isotope Dilution Assay (SIDA)

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2003
A stable isotope dilution assay (SIDA) was developed for the quantitation of both linalool enantiomers using synthesized [2H(2)]R/S-linalool as the internal standard. For enrichment of the target compound from beer, a solid phase microextraction method (SPME) was developed. In comparison to the more time-consuming extraction/distillation cleanup of the

Inhalation of a racemic mixture (R,S)-linalool by rats experiencing restraint stress alters neuropeptide and MHC class I gene expression in the hypothalamus

Neuroscience Letters, 2017
Some odorants have physiological and psychological effects on organisms. However, little is known about the effects of inhaling them, particularly on the central nervous system. Using DNA microarray analysis, we obtained gene expression profiles of the hypothalamus from restraint stressed rats exposed to racemic (R,S)-linalool.

Characterisation of an (S)-linalool synthase from kiwifruit (Actinidia arguta) that catalyses the first committed step in the production of floral lilac compounds

Functional Plant Biology, 2010
Kiwifruit (Actinidia spp. Lindl.) flowers and fruit contain many compounds of interest to the flavour and fragrance industries. In particular, Actinidia arguta (Sieb. et Zucc.) Planch. ex Miq. flowers produce ß-linalool and important derivatives thereof, including linalool oxides, lilac aldehydes, alcohols and alcohol epoxides.

Functional Characterization of a New Antarctic Microbial Esterase EST112-2 and Its Use in the Preparation of Chiral Tertiary Alcohol (S)-Linalool

Chinese Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2018
Chiral tertiary alcohols (TAs) are key building blocks for the synthesis of many crucial flavor compounds and pharmaceuticals. The two enantiomers of tertiary alcohol, linalool, differ in odor. So, sustainable strategies for the manufacture of optically pure TAs represented by linalool, are highly desirable.

Antimicrobial effect of vapours of terpineol, (R)‐(–)‐linalool, carvacrol, (S)‐(–)‐perillaldehyde and 1,8‐cineole on airborne microbes using a room diffuser

Flavour and Fragrance Journal, 2008
AbstractIn this study the antimicrobial activities of five volatiles, which represent main compounds of several essential oils, were tested. Terpineol, (R)‐(–)‐linalool, carvacrol, (S)‐(–)‐perillaldehyde and 1,8‐cineole were evaluated for their influence on airborne microbes when vaporized with a room diffuser.

On the enantiomeric distribution of R(-) and S(+) linalool in Muscat Wine

2000
Linalool (3,7-dimethyl-1,6-octadien-3-ol)is one of the most characterizing flavour natural substances in muscati wine. This paper presents the results of the enantiomeric distribution of linalool in a typical product of the Portuguese market called "Moscatel Favaios" and produced by a technology similar to the Port wine one.

Antimicrobial effect of vapours of terpineol, (R)-(-)-linalool, carvacrol, (S)-(-)-perillaldehyde and 1,8-cineole on airborne microbes using a room diffuser

Flavour & Fragrance Journal, 2008
ABSTRACT: In this study the antimicrobial activities of five volatiles, which represent main compounds of several essential oils, were tested. Terpineol, (R)-(¿)-linalool, carvacrol, (S)-(¿)-perillaldehyde and 1,8-cineole were evaluated for their influence on airborne microbes when vaporized with a room diffuser.
