Biosynthesis of the Red Algal Diterpene Peyssonnosol in Bacteria

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Two terpene synthases derived from Anaerolineae bacteria catalyse the biosynthesis of peyssonnosene‐type diterpenes from red algae. Site‐directed mutagenesis enabled a partial functional switch, resulting in the formation of additional byproducts. The intricate cyclisation mechanisms were investigated through isotopic labelling experiments and density ...

Tuberculosis Terpene Targets

Chemistry & Biology, 2015
In this issue, Young, Moody, and colleagues report the discovery of an isomer of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) virulence factor 1-tuberculosinyl adenosine, N(6)-tuberculosinyl adenosine, in mice infected with tuberculosis. These Mtb-derived terpene compounds may serve as sensitive and specific biomarkers of infection.

Physicochemical, Rheological, and Sensory Properties of Low‐Fat Mayonnaises Formulated With Flaxseed Oil‐Based Sunflower and Whale Wax Oleogels

Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, EarlyView.
In this study, low‐fat, carbohydrate‐free mayonnaise samples based on flaxseed oil–wax oleogels were successfully developed and analyzed. ABSTRACT This study aimed to prepare and characterize low‐fat mayonnaises containing 50% of total weight as fat by incorporating oleogels based on sunflower wax–flaxseed oil (SWO‐M) and whale wax–flaxseed oil (WWO‐M).

Understanding Synergistic Toxicity of Terpenes as Insecticides: Contribution of Metabolic Detoxification in Musca domestica

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Essential oils, which are mixtures of terpenes, frequently show stronger insecticide activity, i.e., lower lethal dose 50 (LC50), than their most abundant terpenes. Synergy between terpenes provides a plausible explanation, but its demonstration has been
