In vivo bioconversion of tetrahydroisoquinoline by recombinant coclaurine N-methyltransferase.

Only registered users can translate articles

Coclaurine N-methyltransferase from Coptis japonica catalyzes the N-methylation of coclaurine as well as simple tetrahydroisoquinoline. We examined the possibility of converting 6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline into its N-methylated product using transgenic Escherichia coli, which

S-Adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM): coclaurine N-methyltransferase (CNMT), which catalyzes the transfer of a methyl group from S-adenosyl-L-methionine to the amino group of the tetrahydrobenzylisoquinoline alkaloid coclaurine. was purified 340-fold from Coptis japonica cells in 1% yield to give an almost

Molecular cloning and characterization of coclaurine N-methyltransferase from cultured cells of Coptis japonica.

S-adenosyl-L-methionine:coclaurine N-methyltransferase (CNMT) converts coclaurine to N-methylcoclaurine in isoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis. The N-terminal amino acid sequence of Coptis CNMT was used to amplify the corresponding cDNA fragment and later to isolate full-length cDNA using 5'- and

Isolation and Characterization of O-methyltransferases Involved in the Biosynthesis of Glaucine in Glaucium flavum.

Transcriptome resources for the medicinal plant Glaucium flavum were searched for orthologs showing identity with characterized O-methyltransferases (OMTs) involved in benzylisoquinoline alkaloid biosynthesis. Seven recombinant proteins were functionally tested using the signature alkaloid

Molecular cloning and characterization of tetrahydroprotoberberine cis-N-methyltransferase, an enzyme involved in alkaloid biosynthesis in opium poppy.

S-Adenosyl-l-methionine:tetrahydroprotoberberine cis-N-methyltransferase (EC 2.1.1.122) catalyzes the conversion of (S)-stylopine to the quaternary ammonium alkaloid, (S)-cis-N-methylstylopine, as a key step in the biosynthesis of protopine and benzophenanthridine alkaloids in plants. A full-length

Developmental and inducible accumulation of gene transcripts involved in alkaloid biosynthesis in opium poppy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Opium poppy (Papaver somniferum) produces a large number of benzylisoquinoline alkaloids, including morphine and sanguinarine, derived from tyrosine via the branch-point intermediate (S)-reticuline. Molecular clones for the three methlytransferases involved in (S)-reticuline biosynthesis,

Identification and Characterization of Genes Involved in Benzylisoquinoline Alkaloid Biosynthesis in Coptis Species.

Only registered users can translate articles

The dried rhizomes of Coptis chinensis have been extensively used in heat clearing, dampness drying, fire draining, and detoxification by virtue of their major bioactive components, benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (BIAs). However, C. teeta and C. chinensis are occasionally interchanged, and current
