Single‐cell sequencing and mass spectrometry imaging reveal the multicellular compartmentalization map of plant triterpenes: A ginsenoside in Panax ginseng example

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 23, Issue 10, Page 4461-4476, October 2025.
Summary Revealing the multicellular compartmentalization map is crucial for plant breeding and metabolism regulation. Despite the importance of triterpenes as active compounds, there has been no report on their biosynthetic multicellular mapping. In this study, ginsenosides are used as an example to reveal the multicellular compartmentalization map of ...

A re-assessment of Taxomyces andreanae, the alleged taxol-producing fungus, using comparative genomics

IMA Fungus, 2022
The monotypic “bulbilliferous hyphomycete” genus Taxomyces was erected in 1993 for a fungal endophyte isolated from the Yew tree Taxus brevifolia and named Taxomyces andreanae. This fungus was reported to produce the plant-derived anti-cancer drug taxol.

A Friendly Relationship between Endophytic Fungi and Medicinal Plants: A Systematic Review [PDF]

, 2016
Endophytic fungi or endophytes exist widely inside the healthy tissues of living plants, and are important components of plant micro-ecosystems. Over the long period of evolution, some co-existing endophytes and their host plants have established a ...

Cloning and expression of a human kinesin heavy chain gene: interaction of the COOH-terminal domain with cytoplasmic microtubules in transfected CV-1 cells. [PDF]

, 1992
To understand the interactions between the microtubule-based motor protein kinesin and intracellular components, we have expressed the kinesin heavy chain and its different domains in CV-1 monkey kidney epithelial cells and examined their distributions ...

Interactions between co-habitating fungi elicit synthesis of Taxol from an endophytic fungus in host Taxus plants

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2013
Within a plant, there can exist an ecosystem of pathogens and endophytes, the latter described as bacteria and fungal inhabitants that thrive without causing disease to the host.
