Total Syntheses of Biosynthetic Intermediates Toward Collective Supply of Biologically Active Alkaloid and Total Synthesis of (—)-Rubenine [PDF]
The first enantioselective total syntheses of the biosynthetic intermediates of the monoterpenoid indole alkaloids, (—)- secologanin (1), (—)-5-carboxystrictosidine (2), and (—)-strictosidine (3), were accomplished.

An assay for secologanin in plant tissues based on enzymatic conversion into strictosidine [PDF]
The secoiridoid glucoside secologanin is the terpenoid building block in the biosynthesis of terpenoid indole alkaloids. A method for its determination in plant tissues and in cell suspension cultures has been developed.

Silencing of tryptamine biosynthesis for production of nonnatural alkaloids in plant culture
Natural products have long served as both a source and inspiration for pharmaceuticals. Modifying the structure of a natural product often improves the biological activity of the compound.

Soil-borne microorganisms and soil-type affect pyrrolizidine alkaloids in Jacobaea vulgaris [PDF]
Secondary metabolites like pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) play a crucial part in plant defense. We studied the effects of soil-borne microorganisms and soil-type on pyrrolizidine alkaloids in roots and shoots of Jacobaea vulgaris.
