Gromomycins: An Unprecedented Class of Triterpene Antibiotics Produced by a Novel Biosynthetic Pathway

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Gromomycins represent a novel class of pentacyclic triterpene antibiotics with a unique biosynthetic pathway independent of the squalene route. These compounds exhibit potent activity against drug‐resistant Gram‐positive pathogens, including MRSA, and their unprecedented cyclization mechanism provides new insight into bacterial triterpene biosynthesis.

Transcriptome pathways unique to dehydration tolerant relatives of modern wheat [PDF]

, 2009
Among abiotic stressors, drought is a major factor responsible for dramatic yield loss in agriculture. In order to reveal differences in global expression profiles of drought tolerant and sensitive wild emmer wheat genotypes, a previously deployed shock ...

Terpene synthases in disguise: enzymology, structure, and opportunities of non-canonical terpene synthases.

Natural product reports (Print), 2020
Covering: up to July 2019Terpene synthases (TSs) are responsible for generating much of the structural diversity found in the superfamily of terpenoid natural products. These elegant enzymes mediate complex carbocation-based cyclization and rearrangement

Silylation of Aryl and Alkyl Chlorides by a Seven‐Membered Dialkoxysilyl Group Si(pan)Me via an In Situ Generated Silylpotassium

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
This study reveals a facile silylation protocol that enables the delivery of a stable and activatable dioxasilepanyl group, Si(pan)Me, to aryl and alkyl chlorides. Of note is the X‐ray structure of 18‐C‐6·K–Si(pan)Me, which elucidates a pivotal silylpotassium intermediate.

Decoding the Chemical Language of Ribosomally Synthesized and Post‐Translationally Modified Peptides from the Untapped Archaea Domain

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Secondary metabolites (SMs) are essential across all life domains, yet those originating from the Archaea domain remain poorly understood. Here, the systematic genome mining and the pioneering heterologous expression of archaeal SMs have revealed the chemical landscape of archaeal lanthipeptides, showing both canonical and non‐canonical forms.

Oleoresin defenses in conifers: chemical diversity, terpene synthases, limitations of oleoresin defense under climate change.

New Phytologist, 2019
Conifers have evolved complex oleoresin terpene defenses against herbivores and pathogens. In co-evolved bark beetles, conifer terpenes also serve chemo-ecological functions as pheromone precursors, chemical barcodes for host identification, or nutrients
