Linking Terpene Synthases to Sesquiterpene Metabolism in Grapevine Flowers

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) terpene synthases (VviTPS) are responsible for the biosynthesis of terpenic volatiles. Volatile profiling of nine commercial wine cultivars showed unique cultivar-specific variation in volatile terpenes emitted from ...

Root volatiles in plant–plant interactions I: High root sesquiterpene release is associated with increased germination and growth of plant neighbours

open access: yesPlant, Cell and Environment, 2019
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by plant leaves can influence the physiology of neighbouring plants. In contrast to leaf VOCs, little is known about the role of root VOCs in plant–plant interactions.

Germacrene B – a central intermediate in sesquiterpene biosynthesis

open access: yesBeilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2023
Germacranes are important intermediates in the biosynthesis of eudesmane and guaiane sesquiterpenes. After their initial formation from farnesyl diphosphate, these neutral intermediates can become reprotonated for a second cyclisation to reach the ...

Sesquiterpene Lactones: Promising Natural Compounds to Fight Inflammation

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2021
Inflammation is a crucial and complex process that reestablishes the physiological state after a noxious stimulus. In pathological conditions the inflammatory state may persist, leading to chronic inflammation and causing tissue damage.
