Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular cloning, expression, and characterization of adenylate isopentenyltransferase from hop (Humulus lupulus L.).

TL;DR: Interestingly, steady-state kinetic analyses revealed that the isopentenylation of ADP and ATP were more efficient than that of AMP as previously reported for A. thaliana AtIPT4.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of human lanosterol synthase by the constituents of Colocasia esculenta (taro).

TL;DR: Examination of activity variation among eight taro cultivars indicated that "Aichi-wase" and "Yatsugashira" had the most potent activity for hOSC inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of digalactosyl diacylglycerols and their structure–inhibitory activity on human lanosterol synthase

TL;DR: Digalactosyl and monogalactocyl diacylglycerols (DGDG and MGDG), which were identified as anti-hyperlipemia active components in Colocasia esculenta (Taro), were synthesized and showed the most potent activity.
