Journal ArticleDOI
Separation and identification of major plant sphingolipid classes from leaves.
TL;DR: In extracts from A. thaliana leaves, hexosehexuronic-inositolphosphoceramides, monohexosylceramide, and ceramides accounted for ∼64, 34, and 2% of the total sphingolipids, respectively, suggesting an important role for the anionic sphingoipids in plant membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using unnatural protein fusions to engineer resveratrol biosynthesis in yeast and Mammalian cells.
Yansheng Zhang,Song Zhe Li,Jia Li,Xiangqing Pan,Rebecca E. Cahoon,Jan G. Jaworski,Xuemin Wang,Joseph M. Jez,Feng Chen,Oliver Yu +9 more
TL;DR: An entire plant natural product pathway into a mammalian host is successfully engineered and resveratrol, a naturally occurring defense compound produced by a limited number of plants in response to stresses, is introduced into human HEK293 cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fatty acid synthesis is inhibited by inefficient utilization of unusual fatty acids for glycerolipid assembly
Philip D. Bates,Sean R. Johnson,Xia Cao,Jia Li,Jeong-Won Nam,Jan G. Jaworski,John B. Ohlrogge,John Browse +7 more
TL;DR: Evidence is presented that inefficient utilization of unusual fatty acids within the endoplasmic reticulum can induce posttranslational inhibition of acetyl–CoA carboxylase activity in the plastid, thus inhibiting fatty acid synthesis and total oil accumulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular characterization of the pentacyclic triterpenoid biosynthetic pathway in Catharanthus roseus.
TL;DR: Results suggest that CrAS and CrAO are involved in the pentacyclic triterpene biosynthesis in C. roseus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glucosylceramide synthase is essential for alfalfa defensin-mediated growth inhibition but not for pathogenicity of Fusarium graminearum.
TL;DR: It is concluded that glucosylceramide is essential for MsDef1‐mediated growth inhibition of F. graminearum, but its role in fungal pathogenesis is host‐dependent, and a functional role of the fungal sphingolipid glucosyceramide in regulating sensitivity of the fungus is characterized.
