IntroductionWith the increasing demand for health products derived from Polygonati rhizoma (PR), people begin to artificially plant Polygonatum cyrtonema Hua (P. cyrtonema) in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. To promote P.

Secondary metabolism and pathophysiology [PDF]
Mechanisms of regulation of biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in microorganisms under natural conditions differ from the regulation mechanisms resulting in an overproduction of these metabolites in industrial fermentations. The overproduction is attained by creating pathophysiological cultivation conditions and by using mutant strains which differ ...

Regulation of fungal secondary metabolism [PDF]
Fungi 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.

Engineering of Secondary Metabolism
Annual Review of Genetics, 2015Secondary (specialized) metabolites, produced by bacteria, fungi, plants, and other organisms, exhibit enormous structural variation, and consequently display a wide range of biological activities. Secondary metabolism improves and modulates the phenotype of the host producer.

Secondary metabolism in cannabis
Phytochemistry Reviews, 2008Cannabis sativa L. is an annual dioecious plant from Central Asia. Cannabinoids, flavonoids, stilbenoids, terpenoids, alkaloids and lignans are some of the secondary metabolites present in C. sativa. Earlier reviews were focused on isolation and identification of more than 480 chemical compounds; this review deals with the biosynthesis of the secondary

Biotechnological exploitation of plant cell cultures for production of natural products will depend on our ability to modify expression of complex biosynthetic pathways both quantitatively and qualitatively. De novo, transcriptional activation of genes encoding biosynthetic pathway enzymes represents the first, and often the major, control point for ...

Secondary metabolism in the lichen symbiosis
Chemical Society Reviews, 2018Lichens, which are defined by a symbiosis between a mycobiont (fungal partner) and a photobiont (photoautotrophic partner), are in fact complex assemblages of microorganisms that constitute a largely untapped source of bioactive secondary metabolites.

Origins of secondary metabolism.
Ciba Foundation symposium, 1993Secondary metabolites generally benefit their producers as poisons that protect them against competitors, predators or parasites. They are produced from universally present precursors (most often acetyl-CoA, amino acids or shikimate) by specific enzymes that probably arose by the duplication and divergence of genes originally coding for primary ...
