Is There a Possibility to Involve the Hormesis Effect on the Soybean with Glyphosate Sub-Lethal Amounts Used to Control Weed Species Amaranthus retroflexus L.?

Agronomy, 2020
Sub-lethal doses of herbicides can promote plant growth and have a positive effect on an organism this is called hormesis. The purpose of this study was to test the effects of sub-lethal doses of glyphosate on soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) (1.8, 3.6 ...

Virtual Screening, Molecular Docking and Dynamic Simulation of Shikimate Kinase from Mycobacterium Tuberculosis Using in Silico Approach

, 2020
Shikimate kinase (SK) is an enzyme that catalyzes the fifth steps in the shikimate pathway. The enzyme facilitate the transfer of phosphoryl from ATP to shikimate, to produce ADP and shikimate-3-phosphate from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB).

Targeting hydroxycinnamoyl CoA: shikimate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase for lignin modification in Brachypodium distachyon

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background Hydroxycinnamoyl CoA: shikimate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT) is a central enzyme of the so-called “esters” pathway to monolignols. As originally envisioned, HCT functions twice in this pathway, to form coumaroyl shikimate and then, in ...

Structures of Helicobacter pylori shikimate kinase reveal a selective inhibitor-induced-fit mechanism. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
Shikimate kinase (SK), which catalyzes the specific phosphorylation of the 3-hydroxyl group of shikimic acid in the presence of ATP, is the enzyme in the fifth step of the shikimate pathway for biosynthesis of aromatic amino acids.

Shikimate Kinase Plays Important Roles in Anthocyanin Synthesis in Petunia

, 2022
In plants, the shikimate pathway is responsible for the production of aromatic amino acids L-tryptophan, L-phenylalanine, and L-tyrosine. L-Phenylalanine is the upstream substrate of flavonoid and anthocyanin synthesis.
