Analysis of MS/MS Fragmentation of Taxoids [PDF]
The fragmentation pathways of seven types of taxoids were investigated by using a LC-MS/MS method, namely: (1) neutral taxoids with a C-4(20) double bond; (2) taxoids with a C-4(20) double bond and oxygenation at C-14; (3) 5-cinnamoyl taxoids with a C-4 ...

Transcriptome and Metabolome Analyses of Taxus chinensis var. mairei Tissues Provide New Insights into the Regulation of Paclitaxel Biosynthesis [PDF]
Taxus is the natural source of the anticancer drug paclitaxel. Although significant progress has been made in elucidating the biosynthetic pathway of paclitaxel, its tissue-specific accumulation and associated regulatory networks in Taxus remains unclear.

Optimization of the fermentation media, mathematical modeling, and enhancement of paclitaxel production by Alternaria alternata after elicitation with pectin [PDF]
Alternaria alternata fungus is a potent paclitaxel producer isolated from Corylus avellana. The major challenge is the lack of optimized media for endophytic fungi productivity. In the effort to maximize the production of taxoids by A. alternata, several

Engineering of 10-Deacetylbaccatin III-10-β-O-Acetyltransferase From Taxus Species for Efficient Acetylating Non-Natural Substrates Into Taxol in Nicotiana benthamiana. [PDF]
ABSTRACT 7‐β‐xylosyl‐10‐deacetyltaxol (XDT) is much more abundant than the anticancer drug Taxol in Taxus species and is usually regarded as the by‐product of Taxol. It could be enzymatically transformed into 10‐deacetyltaxol (DT), and the latter could be further converted into Taxol.
