Adventitious Roots and Secondary Metabolism
Chinese Journal of Biotechnology, 2008Plants are a rich source of valuable secondary metabolites and in the recent years plant cell, tissue and organ cultures have been developed as an important alternative sources for the production of these compounds. Adventitious roots have been successfully induced in many plant species and cultured for the production of high value secondary ...

In addition to the primary metabolic reactions which are similar in all groups of living organisms (formation and breakdown of nucleic acids and proteins and their precursors, of most carbohydrates, of some carboxylic acids, etc., cf. Table 6), a vast number of metabolic pathways lead to the formation of peculiar chemical compounds, the so-called ...

Secondary metabolism in simulated microgravity
The Chemical Record, 2001AbstractWe have studied microbial secondary metabolism in a simulated microgravity (SMG) environment provided by NASA rotating‐wall bioreactors (RWBs). These reactors were designed to simulate some aspects of actual microgravity that occur in space. Growth and product formation were observed in SMG in all cases studied, i.e., Bacillus brevis produced ...

Metabolic engineering of the plant primary–secondary metabolism interface
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2011Plants synthesize a myriad of secondary metabolites (SMs) that are derived from central or primary metabolism. While these so-called natural products have been targets for plant metabolic engineering attempts for many years, the immense value of manipulating the interface between committed steps in secondary metabolism pathways and those in primary ...

Secondary metabolic encephalopathy
Postgraduate Medicine, 1976Secondary metabolic encephalopathy is a diffuse disorder of the brain caused by an extracerebral process. Underlying causes include oxygen deprivation, systemic metabolic disease, and drug intoxication. Symptoms and signs usually suggest a generalized disturbance of brain function: alterations in the level of consciousness; diffuse and, occasionally ...

Regulation of fungal secondary metabolism
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2012Fungi produce a multitude of low-molecular-mass compounds known as secondary metabolites, which have roles in a range of cellular processes such as transcription, development and intercellular communication. In addition, many of these compounds now have important applications, for instance, as antibiotics or immunosuppressants.

The Regulation of Secondary Metabolism in Photorhabdus
2016A general definition of secondary metabolism is that it consists of the metabolic pathways and the products of metabolism that are not absolutely required for the survival of the organism. Using this definition, it is now well established that Photorhabdus elaborate an extensive secondary metabolism during the post-exponential phase of bacterial growth.

Regulation of secondary metabolism in streptomycetes
Current Opinion in Microbiology, 2005While the biological functions of most of the secondary metabolites made by streptomycetes are not known, it is inconceivable that they do not play an adaptive ecological role. The biosynthesis of secondary metabolites under laboratory conditions usually occurs in a growth phase or developmentally controlled manner, but is also influenced by a wide ...

Secondary Metabolism and Microbial Physiology
1985Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the biochemical similarities and differences between primary and secondary metabolism. The known secondary metabolites are divided into three categories according to the perceived source of the carbon from which their skeletons are derived.

Metabolic Engineering of Secondary Plant Metabolism
2017Metabolic engineering is a modulation of metabolic pathway(s) of the host either to increase the concentration of existing compounds or to produce a novel compound. It began with the engineering of microorganisms, and the concept has been extrapolated to plants opening newer promising perspectives.
