Reduction of the delta 7 double bond of sterols, a key biosynthetic step in higher eukaryotes, is lacking in lower eukaryotes like the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, leading to terminal sterols with a delta 5,7-conjugated diene structure. Genes encoding two sterol reductases involved, respectively,
In an organized assembly in Arabidopsis thaliana plant, proton loss from the radical cation of zeaxanthin (Zea+) was found to occur under intense illumination, a possible component in photoprotection. A stable neutral radical is formed because of the favorable proton loss at C4(4') position(s) of
Streptomyces bacteria are ubiquitous in soils and are well-known for producing secondary metabolites, including antimicrobials. Increasingly, they are being isolated from plant roots and several studies have shown they are specifically recruited to the rhizosphere and the endosphere of the
