Cultivation of cow cockle (Vaccaria hispanica (Mill.) Rauschert): An industrial-medicinal weed
(2012)Cow cockle (Vaccaria hispanica (Mill.) Rauschert) is an important medicinal weed. Its therapeutic properties are due to present of triterpenoid saponins. Large potential exists to use cow cockle as source of pharmaceutical ... -
Finding and analyzing plant metabolic gene clusters
(2012)Plants produce an array of diverse secondary metabolites with important ecological functions, providing protection against pests, diseases, and abiotic stresses. Secondary metabolites are also a rich source of bioactive ... -
A hairy-root transformation protocol for Trigonella foenum-graecum L. as a tool for metabolic engineering and specialised metabolite pathway elucidation
(2020)The development of genetic transformation methods is critical for enabling the thorough characterization of an organism and is a key step in exploiting any species as a platform for synthetic biology and metabolic engineering ... -
Phytoestrogens, phytosteroids and saponins in vegetables: Biosynthesis, functions, health effects and practical applications
(2019)Phytoestrogens are non-steroidal secondary metabolites with similarities in structure and biological activities with human estrogens divided into various classes of compounds, including lignans, isoflavones, ellagitannins, ... -
Plant terpenoid metabolism co-opts a component of the cell wall biosynthesis machinery
(2020)Glycosylation is one of the most prevalent molecular modifications in nature. Single or multiple sugars can decorate a wide range of acceptors from proteins to lipids, cell wall glycans and small molecules, dramatically ... -
Sad3 and Sad4 are required for saponin biosynthesis and root development in oat
(2008)Avenacins are antimicrobial triterpene glycosides that are produced by oat (Avena) roots. These compounds confer broad-spectrum resistance to soil pathogens. Avenacin A-1, the major avenacin produced by oats, is strongly ...
