Isoprenoid Pathway Optimization for Taxol Precursor Overproduction in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Author Manuscript February 6, 2011Taxol (paclitaxel) is a potent anticancer drug first isolated from the Taxus brevifolia Pacific yew tree. Currently, cost-efficient production of Taxol and its analogs remains limited.

ABSTRACT The synthesis and accumulation of active ingredients in medicinal plants are distributed in specific organs, tissues, and cell types, which are important for the exploitation of medicinal plants. However, the fine distribution of active ingredients is difficult to know. Here, the system of mass spectrometry imaging (MSI) integrated with single‐

Cloning and Sequencing of Hydroxylase Genes Involved in Taxol Biosynthesis
Abstract Two full-length cDNAs (TCH1 and TCH2) were obtained from a cDNA library of Taxus chinensis mainly by the single specific-primer PCR (SSP-PCR) method. Compared with other reported enzymes from Taxus species, the deduced amino acid sequences of TCH1 and TCH2 exhibit significant homologies to hydroxylases that are involved in taxol

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.

The role of cytokines in ovarian cancer drug resistance
Abstract Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death among women diagnosed with female reproductive system cancers. While significant advances have been made in treating various types of cancer, progress in ovarian cancer treatment over the past 20 years has been minimal, and the treatment course of ovarian cancer is not linear. Although many patients
