Nature, intracellular distribution and formation of terpenoid quinones in Euglena gracilis.

1. Light-grown cells of Euglena gracilis strain Z, var. bacillaris and 1224/5g contain phylloquinone, plastoquinone, alpha-tocopherol, alpha-tocopherolquinone and ubiquinone-9 (i.e. ubiquinone with 9 isoprene units/mol.). 2. The concentration (per g. dry wt.) of plastoquinone (and chlorophyll) in light-grown cells of strain Z was governed by the composition of the culture medium and age of the ...

Cell-free studies of monoterpene and sesquiterpene biosynthesis.

Regulation of biosynthesis Plastoquinone, ph ylloquinone and a-tocopherol are present in much lower amounts in etiolated tissue compared with green tissue, and the increase in these compounds on illumination is concomitant with the formation of the thylakoid membrane. This is perhaps the major regulatory level in biosynthesis of chloroplastidic quinones and chromanols. Evidence for lightdepende...

Chloroplast Autonomy in Acetyl-Coenzyme-A-Formation and Terpenoid Biosynthesis

Biosynthesis, /?-Carotene, Chloroplast, Plastoquinone-9, Terpenoids Isolated intact spinach chloroplasts were supplied with 14C-labeled C 0 2, phosphoglycerate, phosphoenolpyruvate, acetate and mevalonate and the incorporation of radioactivity into /?-carotene and plastoquinone-9 assayed. All applied substrates were capable of crossing the chloroplast envelope. Except phosphoenolpyruvate all ra...

The Shikimate Pathway: Aromatic Amino Acids and Phenylpropanoids

Shikimic acid and its role in the formation of aromatic amino acids, benzoic acids, and cinnamic acids is described, along with further modifications leading to lignans and lignin, phenylpropenes, and coumarins. Combinations of the shikimate pathway and the acetate pathway are responsible for the biosynthesis of styrylpyrones, flavonoids and stilbenes, flavonolignans, and isoflavonoids. Terpeno...

Abiotic and biotic elicitors’ effects on secondary metabolites biosynthesis of periwinkle (Catharanthus roseus (Linn.) G. Don)

Based on recent statistical survey, the cancer is the third important factor in Iran mortality. Vinblastine and vincristine alkaloids are dominantly biosynthesized in the aerial parts of periwinkle, broadly applied for cancer treatment. Therefore, over production of these alkaloids by using the biotechnological approaches is inevitable. Since the terpenoid indole alkaloids (TIAS) biosynthesis p...
