Chemical wizardry? The generation of diversity in terpenoid biosynthesis*
Terpene synthases catalyze the conversion of linear prenyl-diphosphates to a multitude of hydrocarbon skeletons with often high regioand stereoselectivity. These remarkable enzymes all rely on a shared fold for activity, namely, the class I terpene cyclase fold. Recent work has illuminated the catalytic strategy used by these enzymes to catalyze the arguably most complex chemical reactions foun...

15 صفحه اولphylogeography and genetic diversity of the lesser mouse- eared bat (myotis blythii) in iran
in current study, 63 samples of bat populations collected from differ regions were used for evaluating the geographic variations. twenty cranial and dental characters for traditional morphometric and landmarks method on the ventral, dorsal skull and mandible for geometry morphometric studies were used. statistical analyses of traditional morphometric and geometry morphometric data indicated low...
Terpenoid intermediates in the biosynthesis of cholesterol.
Previous reports from this laboratory (1, 2) have described a particlefree extract of rat liver which is capable of incorporating C14-labeled acetate and P-hydroxy+methylglutaric acid (HMG)’ into cholesterol. With this enzyme system, it has been possible to demonstrate that acetate and HMG can be incorporated into squalene, and that biosynthetic Cr4-labeled squalene is incorporated into cholest...
متن کاملThe biosynthesis of C5-C25 terpenoid compounds.
This review covers recently-published experimental information on the biosynthesis of terpenoids in the range C5-C25. In addition to sections on the mevalonate and mevalonate-independent (deoxyxylulose phosphate) pathways, the review considers in turn hemiterpenoids, polyprenyl diphosphate synthases, monoterpenoids, sesquiterpenoids, diterpenoids, and sesterterpenoids. The literature from Janua...
