Taxol biosynthesis: Taxane 13 -hydroxylase is a cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase
A central feature in the biosynthesis of Taxol is oxygenation at multiple positions of the taxane core structure, reactions that are considered to be mediated by cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenases. A PCR-based differential display-cloning approach, using Taxus (yew) cells induced for Taxol production, yielded a family of related cytochrome P450 genes, one of which was assigned as a taxane...
متن کاملBiosynthesis, Encodes a Putative Cytochrome P450 Monooxygenase
Phytoalexins are low molecular weight antimicrobial compounds that are synthesized in response to pathogen attack. The phytoalexin camalexin, an indole derivative, is produced by Arabidopsis in response to infection with the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. The phytoalexin deficient 3 ( pad3 ) mutation, which causes a defect in camalexin production, has no effect on resistance to P. syr...
متن کاملThe P450 monooxygenase BcABA1 is essential for abscisic acid biosynthesis in Botrytis cinerea.
The phytopathogenic ascomycete Botrytis cinerea is known to produce abscisic acid (ABA), which is thought to be involved in host-pathogen interaction. Biochemical analyses had previously shown that, in contrast to higher plants, the fungal ABA biosynthesis probably does not proceed via carotenoids but involves direct cyclization of farnesyl diphosphate and subsequent oxidation steps. We present...
متن کاملAsymmetrical ligand binding by abscisic acid 8'-hydroxylase.
Abscisic acid (ABA), a plant stress hormone, has a chiral center (C1') in its molecule, yielding the enantiomers (1'S)-(+)-ABA and (1'R)-(-)-ABA during chemical synthesis. ABA 8'-hydroxylase (CYP707A), which is the major and key P450 enzyme in ABA catabolism in plants, catalyzes naturally occurring (1'S)-(+)-enantiomer, whereas it does not recognize naturally not occurring (1'R)-(-)-enantiomer ...
متن کاملCytochrome P450 Monooxygenase-Mediated Resistance to Insecticides
Insecticide resistance is one of the major obstacles to the control of agriculturally important arthropod pests. Resistance results in increased application frequencies, increased dosages, decreased yields, environmental damage, and outbreaks of human and animal diseases when vectors cannot be controlled. The World Health Organization has called insecticide resistance "the biggest single obstac...
