Identification of iridoid glucoside transporters in Catharanthus roseus [PDF]
, 2017 Monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) are plant defense compounds and high-value pharmaceuticals. Biosynthesis of the universal MIA precursor, secologanin, is organized between internal phloem-associated parenchyma (IPAP) and epidermis cells ...

Strictosidine activation in Apocynaceae: towards a "nuclear time bomb"? [PDF]
, 2010 Background The first two enzymatic steps of monoterpene indole alkaloid (MIA) biosynthetic pathway are catalysed by strictosidine synthase (STR) that condensates tryptamine and secologanin to form strictosidine and by strictosidine β-D-glucosidase (SGD ...
