Cysteine biosynthesis is a vital biochemical process that converts inorganic sulphur into organic forms, ultimately producing the sulphur‐containing amino acid cysteine. This amino acid is essential ...
Medicinal plants produce a wide range of bioactive compounds, yet the genetic and evolutionary mechanisms underlying their ...
The widely used chemotherapy drug paclitaxel, commonly known as Taxol, was first extracted from the Pacific yew tree in 1963. But while plants have figured out how to manufacture the molecule, for ...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) represents one of the most prevalent chronic endocrine-metabolic disorders affecting women ...
Researchers identify the crucial protein for controlling the biosynthesis of steroidal glycoalkaloids and saponins in plants of the genus Solanum and for the first time demonstrate the ecological role ...
Scientists in China have developed a way to synthesize medicarpin in yeast—specifically, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, also known as baker’s yeast. Like paclitaxel in the 1990s, this tumor-attacking ...
Automated detection of metallophore biosynthesis reveals that metal-chelating non-ribosomal peptides are widespread, chemically diverse, and deeply rooted in bacterial evolution.
NAEs are lipid-based endogenous signaling molecules that are produced by combining long-chain fatty acids with ethanolamine. Collectively, NAEs include both endocannabinoids and structurally related ...
A research team has conducted a study exploring the role of the mannose pathway in regulating cell fate decisions in low glucose environments. Their work may hold potential for novel therapeutic ...
Kobe University researchers have engineered Escherichia coli to synthesise orsellinic acid-derived meroterpenoids with anticancer, anti-HIV, antidiabetic and anti-inflammatory potential, ...
