BACKGROUND
Vanillin is one of the most widely used flavouring agents, originally obtained from cured seed pods of the vanilla orchid Vanilla planifolia. Currently vanillin is mostly produced via chemical synthesis. A de novo synthetic pathway for heterologous vanillin production from glucose has
Vanillin is one of the world's most important flavor compounds, with a global market of 180 million dollars. Natural vanillin is derived from the cured seed pods of the vanilla orchid (Vanilla planifolia), but most of the world's vanillin is synthesized from petrochemicals or wood pulp lignins. We
Plant reproduction is an extremely important phenomenon, as it is strongly associated with plant genetics and early development. Additionally, foundations of the reproductive system have direct implications on plant breeding and agriculture. Investigation of the functions of male and female
This study investigated potential phytotoxic effects on germination and root growth of 21 plant secondary metabolites (sinapinic, syringic, vanillic, ferulic, p-coumaric, chlorogenic, gallic, gentisic, protocatechuic, p-hydroxybenzoic, and trans-cinnamic acids, and eucalyptol, quercetin, vanillin,
The specific set of reactions that lead to the synthesis of benzoic acid in plants is still unclear, and even the subcellular compartment in which these reactions occur is unknown. Biosynthesis of both vegetative tissues and seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana contain a class of defense compounds termed
The testa of higher plant seeds protects the embryo against adverse environmental conditions. Its role is assumed mainly by controlling germination through dormancy imposition and by limiting the detrimental activity of physical and biological agents during seed storage. To analyze the function of
OBJECTIVE
To demonstrate the expression of coumarate : CoA ligase of Arabidopsis thaliana in Lactococcus lactis as a first step of cloning the vanillin pathway.
RESULTS
The 4CL gene was amplified from a cDNA library of A. thaliana by PCR and subcloned into a multicopy lactococcal vector where the
