Genome-Wide Identification and Structural Characterization of Secondary Metabolite Biosynthetic Gene Clusters in African Baobab (Adansonia digitata). [PDF]
Chem BiodiversGenome‐wide computational analysis of the African baobab (Adansonia digitata) identifies 50 candidate biosynthetic gene clusters spanning terpene, polyketide, cyclopeptide, and lignan pathways, including nine BURP‐domain clusters linked to putative chemical defense.

Novel polyketides synthesized with a higher plant stilbene synthase [PDF]
FEBS Journal, 2001 The physiological function of the stilbene synthase (STS) from groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) is the formation of resveratrol. The enzyme uses 4‐coumaroyl‐CoA, performs three condensations with malonyl‐CoA, and folds the resulting tetraketide into a new aromatic ring system.

PmWRKY-10 Enhances Pine Wilt Disease Resistance by Promoting Pinosylvin Monomethyl Ether Biosynthesis Through Transcriptional Activation of PmPMT2-1. [PDF]
Mol Plant PatholWe identified a PmWRKY‐10→PmPMT2‐1→PME defence pathway in Pinus massoniana against pine wilt disease. PmWRKY‐10 activates PmPMT2‐1 to promote the accumulation of the nematicidal metabolite PME. This discovery reveals the mechanism of stilbene‐mediated resistance and provides key genetic targets for forest management.

Pine stilbene synthase cDNA, a tool for probing environmental stress [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1992 Stilbene synthase cDNAs were isolated from a pine (Pinus sylvestris) cDNA library, Poly(A)'RNA required for the preparation was obtained from young seedlings challenged with Botrytis cinerea. A full‐length cDNA encoding pinosylvin‐forming stilbene synthase was sequenced, and the deduced amino acid sequence was compared with sequences of resveratrol ...

Stilbene Synthase and Chalcone Synthase [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1984 Cultured cells of Picea excelsa capable of forming stilbenes and flavanoids have been established. Unlike needles of intact plants containing piceatannol (3,3',4',5-tetrahydroxystilbene) and stilbene glycosides the cultured cells converted phenylalanine and p-coumaric acid primarily into resveratrol monomethyl ether (3,4'-dihydroxy-5-methoxystilbene ...

Reaction Mechanisms of Homodimeric Plant Polyketide Synthases (Stilbene and Chalcone Synthase) [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1995 Stilbene (STS) and chalcone (CHS) synthases are homodimeric, related plant-specific polyketide synthases. Both perform a sequential condensation of three acetate units to a starter residue to form a tetraketide intermediate that is folded to the ring systems specific to the different products.

Cross‐reaction of chalcone synthase and stilbene synthase overexpressed in Escherichia coli [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1999 Chalcone synthase (CHS) and stilbene synthase (STS) are related plant polyketide synthases belonging to the CHS superfamily. CHS and STS catalyze common condensation reactions of p‐coumaroyl‐CoA and three C2‐units from malonyl‐CoA but different cyclization reactions to produce naringenin chalcone and resveratrol, respectively.

Stilbene synthase from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 1992 Stilbene synthases are named according to their substrate preferences. By this definition, enzymes preferring cinnamoyl‐CoA are pinosylvin synthases, and proteins with a preference for phenylpropionyl‐CoA are dihydropinosylvin synthases. We investigated the assignment of a stilbene synthase cloned from Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) as dihydropinosylvin

Crystal structure of stilbene synthase from Arachis hypogaea [PDF]
Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, 2005 Introduction. Stilbene synthase [STS; Enzyme Commission (EC) 2.3.1.95] and chalcone synthase (CHS; EC 2.3.1.74) are members of the type III polyketide synthases (PKSs) and plant-specific enzymes. 1 CHS is widely found in higher plants and plays a key role in the flavonoid biosynthesis by supplying chalcone to downstream enzymes.

Forests, 2023 Stilbenes are a large group of plant phenolic compounds that have a wide range of biologically active properties, such as antioxidant, immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and anti-angiogenic effects. In plants, stilbenes are involved in the defense against environmental stresses, including fungal infections and insect attacks.
