Spider mite-induced (3S)-(E)-nerolidol synthase activity in cucumber and lima bean. The first dedicated step in acyclic C11-homoterpene biosynthesisH J Bouwmeester
Research Institute for Agrobiology and Soil Fertility, P O Box 14, 6700 AA Wageningen, The Netherlands
Plant Physiol 121:173-80. 1999..Thus, (3S)-(E)-nerolidol synthase is a good candidate for a regulatory role in the release of the important signaling molecule 4,8-dimethyl-1,3(E),7-nonatriene...
Amorpha-4,11-diene synthase catalyses the first probable step in artemisinin biosynthesisH J Bouwmeester
Research Institute for Agrobiology and Soil Fertility AB DLO, Wageningen, Netherlands
Phytochemistry 52:843-54. 1999..annua and the high activity of amorpha-4,11-diene synthase all support that amorpha-4,11-diene is the likely olefinic sesquiterpene intermediate in the biosynthesis of artemisinin...
Biosynthesis of germacrene A carboxylic acid in chicory roots. Demonstration of a cytochrome P450 (+)-germacrene a hydroxylase and NADP+-dependent sesquiterpenoid dehydrogenase(s) involved in sesquiterpene lactone biosynthesisJ W de Kraker
Plant Research International, P.O. Box 16, 6700 AA Wageningen, The Netherlands
Plant Physiol 125:1930-40. 2001..e. costol, were also observed. The (+)-germacrene A hydroxylase is inhibited by carbon monoxide (blue-light reversible), has an optimum pH at 8.0, and hydroxylates beta-elemene with a modest degree of enantioselectivity...
Trichome dynamics and artemisinin accumulation during development and senescence of Artemisia annua leavesW J M Lommen
Crop and Weed Ecology Group, Wageningen University, Wageningen, The Netherlands
Planta Med 72:336-45. 2006..Later formed leaves achieved higher concentrations of artemisinin than earlier formed leaves, because of a higher trichome density and a higher capacity per trichome...
Identification of intermediates and enzymes involved in the early steps of artemisinin biosynthesis in Artemisia annuaC M Bertea
Plant Research International, Wageningen, The Netherlands
Planta Med 71:40-7. 2005....
Germacrenes from fresh costus rootsJ W de Kraker
Laboratory of Organic Chemistry, Wageningen University, Dreijenplein 8, 6703 HB, The, Wageningen, Netherlands
Phytochemistry 58:481-7. 2001..Acid induced cyclisation of the germacrenes yields selinene, costol, costal, and costic acid respectively. It is highly probable that the elemenes reported in literature for costus root oil are artefacts...
Identification of the SAAT gene involved in strawberry flavor biogenesis by use of DNA microarraysA Aharoni
Business Unit Cell Cybernetics, Plant Research International, Wageningen, The Netherlands
Plant Cell 12:647-62. 2000....
Expression of Clarkia S-linalool synthase in transgenic petunia plants results in the accumulation of S-linalyl-beta-D-glucopyranosideJ Lucker
Business Unit Cell Cybernetics, Plant Research International, PO Box 16, 6700 AA, Wageningen, The Netherlands
Plant J 27:315-24. 2001..The results presented demonstrate that monoterpene production can be altered by genetic modification, and that the compounds produced can be converted by endogenous enzymatic activity...
