Alliance Between Conifer Trees and Endophytic Fungi Against Insect Defoliators
Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 48, Issue 7, Page 5236-5249, July 2025.ABSTRACT Fungal endophytes can alter plant resistance against herbivores by indirectly influencing plant secondary metabolism or through direct effects of their own metabolism. However, the role of fungal endophytes in conifer defences to insect herbivores remains largely unknown.

Identification, characterization and molecular adaptation of class I redox systems for the production of hydroxylated diterpenoids [PDF]
, 2016 Background De novo production of multi-hydroxylated diterpenoids is challenging due to the lack of efficient redox systems. Results In this study a new reductase/ferredoxin system from Streptomyces afghaniensis (AfR·Afx) was identified, which allowed ...

Mitochondrial mRNA transcripts predict overall survival, tumor recurrence and progression in serous ovarian cancer : companion diagnostics for cancer therapy [PDF]
, 2017 Here, we performed a systematic analysis to discover new biomarkers of overall survival and tumor progression in ovarian cancer patients. More specifically, we determined whether nuclear-encoded mitochondrial genes related to mitochondrial biogenesis and

A Review on Taxol Production through Biotechnological Approaches
Journal of Medicinal Plants, 2018 Taxol is a very important anticancer drug which was first isolated from Yew plant (Taxus spp.). However, Taxol supply by extraction from natural sources, has several limitations, and cannot meet current marketchr('39')s demands.

Arabidopsis katanin binds microtubules using a multimeric microtubule-binding domain. [PDF]
, 2007 Katanin is a heterodimeric protein that mediates ATP-dependent destabilization of microtubules in animal cells. In plants, the catalytic subunit of Arabidopsis thaliana katanin (AtKSS, Arabidopsis thaliana Katanin Small Subunit) has been identified and ...

Experimental design-aided systematic pathway optimization of glucose uptake and deoxyxylulose phosphate pathway for improved amorphadiene production [PDF]
, 2016 Artemisinin is a potent antimalarial drug; however, it suffers from unstable and insufficient supply from plant source. Here, we established a novel multivariate-modular approach based on experimental design for systematic pathway optimization that ...
