Identification of leucoanthocyanidin reductase and anthocyanidin reductase genes involved in proanthocyanidin biosynthesis in Malus crabapple plants.

Only registered users can translate articles

Proanthocyanidins (PAs) from plants are a nutritionally valuable component of the human diet and play important roles in defense against pests and diseases. PAs are products of the flavonoid pathway, which also leads to the production of anthocyanins and flavonols. The enzymes leucoanthocyanidin

Heterologous expression of dihydroflavonol 4-reductases from various plants.

Only registered users can translate articles

Dihydroflavonol 4-reductases (DFR) catalyze the stereospecific reduction of dihydroflavonols to the respective flavan 3,4-diols (leucoanthocyanidins) and might also be involved in the reduction of flavanones to flavan-4-ols, which are important intermediates in the 3-deoxyflavonoid pathway. Several

Functional characterization of proanthocyanidin pathway enzymes from tea and their application for metabolic engineering.

Only registered users can translate articles

Tea (Camellia sinensis) is rich in specialized metabolites, especially polyphenolic proanthocyanidins (PAs) and their precursors. To better understand the PA pathway in tea, we generated a complementary DNA library from leaf tissue of the blister blight-resistant tea cultivar TRI2043 and

Early steps in proanthocyanidin biosynthesis in the model legume Medicago truncatula.

Only registered users can translate articles

Oligomeric proanthocyanidins (PAs) composed primarily of epicatechin units accumulate in the seed coats of the model legume Medicago truncatula, reaching maximal levels at around 20 d after pollination. Genes encoding the single Medicago anthocyanidin synthase (ANS; EC 1.14.11.19) and

Molecular and biochemical analysis of two cDNA clones encoding dihydroflavonol-4-reductase from Medicago truncatula.

Dihydroflavonol-4-reductase (DFR; EC1.1.1.219) catalyzes a key step late in the biosynthesis of anthocyanins, condensed tannins (proanthocyanidins), and other flavonoids important to plant survival and human nutrition. Two DFR cDNA clones (MtDFR1 and MtDFR2) were isolated from the model legume
