Coronatine-inducible tyrosine aminotransferase (TAT), which catalyses the transamination from tyrosine to p-hydroxyphenylpyruvate, is the first enzyme of a pathway leading via homogentisic acid to plastoquinone and tocopherols, the latter of which are known to be radical scavengers in plants. TAT
Tocopherols are important antioxidants in lipophilic environments. They are synthesized by plants and some photosynthetic bacteria. Recent efforts to analyze and engineer tocopherol biosynthesis led to the identification of Synechocystis sp. strain PCC 6803 as a well-characterized model system. To
An amperometric biosensor was designed for the determination of sulcotrione, a β-triketone herbicide, based on inhibition of hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD), an enzyme allowing the oxidation of hydroxyphenylpyruvate (HPP) in homogentisic acid (HGA). HPPD was produced by cloning the hppd
Tocotrienols are the primary form of vitamin E in seeds of most monocot plants, including cereals such as rice and wheat. As potent antioxidants, tocotrienols contribute to the nutritive value of cereal grains in human and livestock diets. cDNAs encoding homogentisic acid geranylgeranyl transferase
