Light-dependent regulation of carotenoid biosynthesis in plants
(Facultad de Agronomía e Ingeniería Forestal, Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile, 2008-12-22)
Carotenoids are colored terpenes synthesized in
plants, algae and some yeasts and bacteria. In plants and algae, these lipophilic molecules exert
functional roles in hormone synthesis, photosynthesis, photomorphogenesis ...
Biosynthesis of carotenoids in carrot: An underground story comes to light
(Elsevier, 2013)
Carrot (Daucus carota) is a biannual plant that accumulates massive amounts of carotenoid pigments in
the storage root. Although the root of carrot plants was white before domestication, intensive breeding
generated the ...
Biosynthesis of sesquiterpene alcohols and aldehydes by cell free extracts from orange flavedo
(1973)
Water soluble enzymes obtained from orange flavedo form two isomeric farnesols from 1-3H labeled geranylpyrophosphate plus isopentenylpyrophosphate. © 1973.
Regulation of a glutamyl-tRNA synthetase by the heme status
(2007)
Glutamyl-tRNA (Glu-tRNA), formed by Glu-tRNA synthetase (GluRS), is a substrate for protein biosynthesis and tetrapyrrole formation by the C 5 pathway. In this route Glu-tRMA is transformed to δ-aminolevulinic acid, the ...
ABA biosynthesis genes are down regulated while auxin and cytokinin biosynthesis genes are up-regulated during the release of grapevine buds from endodormancy
(Springer, 2017)
Auxin–cytokinin (CK) interactions have been
extensively studied in the control of bud outgrowth in herbaceous
plants. However, in temperate woody plants where
the meristem of dormant buds can be repressed by either
exogenous ...
Low-temperature biosynthesis of fluorescent semiconductor nanoparticles (CdS) by oxidative stress resistant Antarctic bacteria
(Elsevier, 2014)
Bacterial biosynthesis of nanoparticles represents a green alternative for the production of nanostructures with novel properties. Recently, the importance of antioxidant molecules on the biosynthesis of semiconductor ...
Concholepas hemocyanin biosynthesis takes place in the hepatopancreas, with hemocytes being involved in its metabolism
(2010)
Hemocyanins are copper-containing glycoproteins in some molluscs and arthropods, and their bestknown function is O2 transport. We studied the site of their biosynthesis in the gastropod Concholepas concholepas by using ...
Montecrinanes A-C: Triterpenes with an Unprecedented Rearranged Tetracyclic Skeleton from Celastrus vulcanicola. Insights into Triterpenoid Biosynthesis Based on DFT Calculations
(Wiley, 2016)
Three new triterpenoids with an unprecedented 6/6/6/6-fused tetracyclic carbon skeleton, montecrinanes A-C (1-3), were isolated from the root bark of Celastrus vulcanicola, along with known D:B-friedobaccharanes (4-6), and ...
Illuminating colors: regulation of carotenoid biosynthesis and accumulation by light
(Elsevier, 2017)
Light stimulates the biosynthesis of carotenoids and regulates the development of plastid structures to accommodate these photoprotective pigments. Work with Arabidopsis revealed molecular factors coordinating carotenoid ...
Kaurenolides and fujenoic acids are side products of the gibberellin P450-1 monooxygenase in Gibberella fujikuroi
(2004)
The steps involved in kaurenolide and fujenoic acids biosynthesis, from ent-kauradienoic acid and ent-6α,7α-dihydroxykaurenoic acid, respectively, are demonstrated in the gibberellin (GA)-deficient Gibberella fujikuroi ...
