Die Chemie und Biologie der Tetrodotoxin Naturstofffamilie
Tetrodotoxin ist vor allem als das Gift des Kugelfisches bekannt, einer Delikatesse in der japanischen Küche. Seine Toxizität beruht auf der selektiven Blockade von NaV Kanälen, wie am Beispiel der NaV1.7 Pore dargestellt, wobei das DEKA Motiv hervorgehoben ist, das für die Durchlässigkeit von Natriumionen verantwortlich ist.

Biosynthese des Rotalgen‐Diterpens Peyssonnosol in Bakterien
Zwei Terpensynthasen aus Anaerolineae‐Bakterien katalysieren die Biosynthese von Peyssonnosen‐artigen Diterpenen aus Rotalgen. Ortsgerichtete Mutagenese ermöglichte einen partiellen Funktionswechsel, der zur Bildung zusätzlicher Nebenprodukte führte.

The Influence of UV on the Production of Free Terpenes in Vitis vinifera cv. Shiraz
Terpenes contribute to the desirable flavour and aroma of grapes and wine. The biosynthesis of these plant secondary metabolites is influenced by both physiological and environmental factors, such as grapevine phenological stage and sunlight exposure. In

[Regulation of terpene metabolism] [PDF]
OAK-B135 Research over the last four years has progressed fairly closely along the lines initially proposed, with progress-driven expansion of Objectives 1, 2 and 3. Recent advances have developed from three research thrusts: 1. Random sequencing of an enriched peppermint oil gland cDNA library has given access to a large number of potential pathway ...

Interfacial Photoelectrochemistry in Organic Synthesis
Photoelectrodes have traditionally enjoyed widespread attention as heterogeneous catalysts for the activation of water and CO2 in energy research, while photoelectrochemistry with homogeneous molecular catalysts dominates the activations of more complex molecules in organic synthesis.

The Chemistry and Biology of the Tetrodotoxin Natural Product Family
Tetrodotoxin is best known as the poison of the pufferfish, which is a delicacy in Japanese cuisine. Its toxicity arises from the selective blockage of NaV channels, which is depicted for the NaV1.7 pore, highlighting the DEKA motif, which permeates sodium ions.
