Assembly of the eukaryotic PLP-synthase complex from plasmodium and activation of the Pdx1 enzyme [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Biosynthesis of vitamins is fundamental to malaria parasites. Plasmodia synthesize the active form of vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5-phosphate, PLP) using a PLP synthase complex.

A TAF10‐ERF109 Transcriptional Module Directs Flavonoid‐Based Stress Resilience and Yield Enhancement in Foxtail Millet and Wheat

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 10, Page 5352-5368, October 2026.
ABSTRACT To ensure sustainable agricultural production under escalating environmental constraints such as drought and salinity, innovative strategies are urgently needed. Here, we reveal in foxtail millet (Setaria italica) that transcription factors TAF10 and ERF109 form a functional complex which co‐activates the expression of key flavonoid ...

Enzymatic Formation of Unnatural Novel Chalcone, Stilbene, and Benzophenone Scaffolds by Plant Type III Polyketide Synthase

open access: yes, 2016
A C19 hexaketide stilbene and a C21 heptaketide chalcone were synthesized by Aloe arborescens octaketide synthase (OKS), a plant-specific type III polyketide synthase (PKS).

Groundnut Improvement for Aflatoxin Resistance: Progress and Opportunities

open access: yesFood and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 5, September/October 2026.
ABSTRACT Groundnut, or peanut, is an industrial oilseed crop that serves the food and feed industries and provides income along the value chain. Pre‐ and post‐harvest aflatoxin contamination, caused by Aspergillus spp., hinders the food and feed value and market opportunities of groundnut products. Developing and deploying aflatoxin‐resistant varieties

Cyclization Pathways of a (Z)-Stilbene-Derived Bis(orthoquinone monoketal)

open access: yes, 2016
Lead tetraacetate mediated oxidation of a (Z)-bisphenolic stilbene derivative affords a bis(orthoquinone monoketal) product. Thermolysis studies of this highly unsaturated dione reveal that sigmatropic hydrogen shifts, followed by either of two distinct ...

Glucan synthase of Phytophthora sojae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Glucans, with the (1-3)-b-glucosidic linkage as major feature, are present in most of the higher plants, in many lower plants, as well as in microorganisms (Stone and Clarke, 1992). The synthesis of (1-3)-b-glucan in vivo is catalysed by the enzyme (1-3)-

Chromosome‐level genome and methylome of vine tea suggest roles for tandem duplication and CHH hypomethylation in high dihydromyricetin accumulation

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 3, September 2026.
A chromosome‐level genome assembly and single‐base resolution methylome of vine tea (Nekemias grossedentata) reveal that lineage‐specific tandem duplications of dihydromyricetin (DHM) biosynthetic genes (NgCHS and NgF3′5′ H) have expanded their copy numbers, providing the genetic basis for high DHM flux.

Calcium, methyl jasmonate and their combined foliar applications: Influence on Tempranillo grape amino acids composition over two seasons

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, Volume 106, Issue 12, Page 7380-7396, September 2026.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change is currently affecting chemical grape composition and, consequently, grape quality. The foliar application of biostimulants has emerged as a promising approach to mitigate these effects. This study investigated the effects of foliar applications of calcium (Ca), methyl jasmonate (MeJ), and their combination (Ca + MeJ)

Identification of amino acid residues important in the cyclization reactions of chalcone and stilbene synthases [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2000
Chalcone synthase (CHS) and stilbene synthase (STS) catalyse condensation reactions of p-coumaroyl-CoA and three C2 units from malonyl-CoA up to a common tetraketide intermediate but then catalyse different cyclization reactions to produce naringenin chalcone and resveratrol respectively. On the basis of sequence alignment with other condensing enzymes

Constitutive accumulation of cis-piceid in transgenic Arabidopsis overexpressing a sorghum stilbene synthase gene

open access: yes, 2006
Sorghum SbSTS1 was the first example of a stilbene synthase gene in monocots. Previously, we demonstrated that the gene was involved in defense responses.
