Molecular characterization and in silico expression analysis of a chalcone synthase gene family in Sorghum bicolor [PDF]
, 2002 Recent use of Sorghum bicolor as a target for grass genomics has presented new resources for gene discovery in novel metabolic pathways in Poaceae. Sorghum synthesizes a unique class of flavonoid phytoalexins, the 3-deoxyanthocyanidins, in response to ...

An Aldol Switch Discovered in Stilbene Synthases Mediates Cyclization Specificity of Type III Polyketide Synthases [PDF]
Chemistry & Biology, 2004 Stilbene synthase (STS) and chalcone synthase (CHS) each catalyze the formation of a tetraketide intermediate from a CoA-tethered phenylpropanoid starter and three molecules of malonyl-CoA, but use different cyclization mechanisms to produce distinct chemical scaffolds for a variety of plant natural products.

Defence signalling triggered by Flg22 and Harpin is integrated into a different stilbene output in Vitis cells. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Plants can activate defence to pathogen attack by two layers of innate immunity: basal immunity triggered by pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMP) triggered immunity (PTI) and effector-triggered immunity (ETI) linked with programmed cell death ...

50 Years of Giese Reaction – a Personal View
Angewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 7, 9 February 2026.The Giese‐Reaction celebrates its 50. Birthday, it is a cyclic radical chain reaction centered around C,C‐bond formation in a three component synthesis. This minireview speaks about the birth of the name‐reaction, explains how the complete understanding of its reaction mechanism stimulates new methods in organic synthesis, and why it can proceed in ...

Transcriptomic and metabolomic networks in the grape berry illustrate that it takes more than flavonoids to fight against ultraviolet radiation [PDF]
, 2016 Plants are constantly challenged by environmental fluctuations. In response, they have developed a wide range of morphological and biochemical adaptations committed to ameliorate the effects of abiotic stress.
