Benzylisoquinoline alkaloids from the papaveraceae: the heritage of Johannes Gadamer (1867-1928).

چکیده
The substance archive of the laboratory of Johannes Gadamer (1867-1928), Marburg, Germany, was analyzed thoroughly with modern instrumental methods, with the samples purified when necessary, and the authenticity of the samples confirmed by historical and analytical evidence. Eight formerly unknown alkaloids of the benzylisoquinoline type were identified in the archive originally isolated from Corydalis cava or Fumaria vaillantii. This finding underscores the importance of the work of Johannes Gadamer and his group in stimulating overall progress in natural product chemistry. Several alkaloids were isolated by the group long before they were officially reported.

Role of the phloem in the biochemistry and ecophysiology of benzylisoquinoline alkaloid metabolism
Benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (BIAs) are a diverse group of biologically active specialized metabolites produced mainly in four plant families. BIA metabolism is likely of monophyletic origin and involves multiple enzymes yielding structurally diverse compounds. Several BIAs possess defensive properties against pathogenic microorganisms and herbivores. Opium poppy (Papaver somniferum: Papaverace...

Transcription factors control many processes in plants and have high potentials to manipulate specialized metabolic pathways. Transcriptional regulation of the biosynthesis of monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs), nicotine alkaloids, and benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (BIAs) has been characterized using Catharanthus roseus, Nicotiana and Coptis plants. However, metabolic engineering in which spe...
