Investigation of two distinct flavone synthases for plant-specific flavone biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Flavones are plant secondary metabolites that have wide pharmaceutical and nutraceutical applications. We previously constructed a recombinant flavanone pathway by expressing in Saccharomyces cerevisiae a four-step recombinant pathway that consists of cinnamate-4 hydroxylase, 4-coumaroyl:coenzyme A ligase, chalcone synthase, and chalcone isomerase. In the present work, the biosynthesis of flavo...
متن کاملFlavone synthases from Lonicera japonica and L. macranthoides reveal differential flavone accumulation.
Flavones are important secondary metabolites found in many plants. In Lonicera species, flavones contribute both physiological and pharmaceutical properties. However, flavone synthase (FNS), the key enzyme responsible for flavone biosynthesis, has not yet been characterized in Lonicera species. In this study, FNSII genes were identified from Lonicera japonica Thunb. and L. macranthoides Hand.-M...
متن کاملTwo CYP82D Enzymes Function as Flavone Hydroxylases in the Biosynthesis of Root-Specific 4′-Deoxyflavones in Scutellaria baicalensis
Baicalein, wogonin, and their glycosides are major bioactive compounds found in the medicinal plant Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi. These flavones can induce apoptosis in a variety of cancer cell lines but have no effect on normal cells. Furthermore, they have many additional benefits for human health, such as anti-oxidant, antiviral, and liver-protective properties. Here, we report the isolati...
متن کاملFlavone Glucosiduronic Acids
Polylysine has been shown to possess various biological activities. It is bacteriostatic (Katchalski, Bichowski-Slomnitzki & Volcani, 1953) and virostatic (Stahmann, Graf, Patterson, Walker & Watson, 1951); it inhibits thromboplastic activity (de Vries et al. 1951), fibrinolysis (Ginsburg, de Vries & Katchalski, 1952), the proteolytic activity of pepsin (Katchalski, Berger & Neumann, 1954) and ...
متن کاملPhytochemical Investigation of Cassia spectablis Seeds Isolation and Structural Studies of Two New Flavone Glycosides
From the ethanolic extract of the seeds of Cassia spectablis two flavone glycosides C2iH2o08 (1) m.p. 185 °C (d) and C ^ H ^ O N (2) m .p . 280 °C (d) have been isolated. Homogeneity and purity of these compounds were established by chromatography. C 2 I H 2 0 O 8 (1) was found to be a glycoside. On acid hydrolysis it gave arabinose and an aglycone C I 6 H 1 2 0 4 , m.p. 245 ° C which showed co...
