Isolation, Structure Elucidation, and Total Synthesis of Biologically Active Natural Products from Plants
… extract was investigated for inhibitors of the shikimate pathway in Plasmodium falciparum. Bioassay-guided fractionation of the extracts led to the identification of nineteen compounds with both antiplasmodial and antiproliferative activity, and thirteen compounds with only antiproliferative …

Characterization of the Pathway Leading to the Synthesis of Salicylic Acid in Plants Resisting Pathogen Infection.
… levels. The results suggest that genes of the shikimate pathway are up-regulated in both plant lines but much more quickly in the resistant plant, making differential gene expression a possible cause of SA accumulation. Additionally, results showed a more pronounced decrease in amino acid …

Biosynthetic Studies on Geldanamycin and Pactamycin
… units of geldanamycin and pactamycin via the shikimate pathway was studied. {('13)C(,6)}glucose was used to determine the incorporation of intact carbon units into both molecules. This revealed that the respective m-C(,7)N units were derived from three-carbon and four-carbon subunits …

SYNTHESIS OF NATURAL-DERIVED POLYPHENOLS AS POTENTIAL ANTICANCER AGENTS
… polyphenols, these latter directly derived from shikimate pathway, as phenylpropanoids and lignans, or from a mixed biosynthetic pathway (shikimate/ acetate and/or malonate pathways), as stilbenoids or flavonoids. My thesis is devoted to the family of polyphenols with the specific goal of …

An Investigation of Plant Hypersensitive Response and Photosynthesis Inhibition on a Genomic and Physiological Scale
… profiling of soybean in response to the shikimate pathway inhibitor, glyphosate, was analyzed and cross compared with that from HR and bentazon treatments. The gene expression profiling from HR and bentazon treatment shared similar patterns in many aspects, including the efforts to …

Comparative studies on the modes of action of SC-0224 and glyphosate
… effects of these herbicides on the conversion of shikimate to anthranilate in a cell-free extract of Klebsiella pneumoniae ATCC 25306 were also compared. SC-0224 and glyphosate equally inhibited the production of anthranilate indicating that SC-0224 has action similar to glyphosate on the …

Biochemical Characterization of Self-Sacrificing P-Aminobenzoate Synthases from Chlamydia Trachomatis and Nitrosomonas Europaea
… transfer reactions in various biochemical pathways including DNA and amino acid biosynthesis. This cofactor is made up of three distinct moieties: a pteridine ring, p-aminobenzoate (pABA), and glutamate residues. Most bacteria and plants can synthesize folate de novo, unlike animals that …

Constraints on plant resistance and tolerance trade-offs
… relationship to the well-characterized molecular pathway involved in chemical defense, i.e., the shikimate pathway. Previous studies in the lab have shown that the process of endoreduplication is the primary mechanism by which plants compensate for lost tissue following mammalian herbivory …
