ginsenoside/シロイヌナズナ

Ginsenoside Rh2, a rare protopanaxadiol (PPD)-type triterpene saponin isolated from Panax ginseng, exhibits notable anticancer and immune-system-enhancing activities. Glycosylation catalyzed by uridine diphosphate-dependent glucosyltransferase (UGT) is the final biosynthetic step of ginsenoside Rh2.

Ginsenoside F1 is a rare ginsenoside in medicinal plants such as Panax ginseng,P. notogingseng and P. quinquefolius. It has strong pharmacological activities of anti-tumor,anti-oxidation and anti-aging. In order to directly produce ginsenoside F1 by using inexpensive raw materials such as glucose,we

Ginsenosides are the main bioactive constituents of Panax species, which are biosynthesized by glycosylation at C3-OH and/or C20-OH of protopanaxadiol (PPD), C6-OH and/or C20-OH of protopanaxatriol (PPT). The C12-glycosylated ginsenosides have scarcely been identified from Panax species. The

Ginsenosides are the primary bioactive components of ginseng, which is a popular medicinal herb and exhibits diverse pharmacological activities. Protopanaxadiol is the aglycon of several dammarane-type ginsenosides, which also has anticancer activity. For microbial production of protopanaxadiol,

Sesquiterpenes are an abundant group belonging to the terpenoid family, with a C15 structure comprise of three isoprene units. Many sesquiterpenes are volatile compounds and it act as chemical messenger in plant signalling, particularly in the defense mechanism against biotic and abiotic stresses.

OBJECTIVE To achieve heterologous biosynthesis of dammarenediol-II, which is the precursor of dammarane-type tetracyclic ginsenosides, by reconstituting the 2,3-oxidosqualene-derived triterpenoid biosynthetic pathway in Escherichia coli. RESULTS By the strategy of synthetic biology, dammarenediol-II

The Panax ginseng root proteome has been investigated via capture with combinatorial peptide ligand libraries (CPLL) at three different pH values. Proteomic characterization by SDS-PAGE and nLC–MS/MS analysis, via LTQ-Orbitrap XL, led to the identification of a total of 207 expressed proteins. This

Ginsenosides, the major bioactive components of Panax ginseng, are regarded as promising high-value pharmaceutical compounds. In ginseng, ginsenosides are produced from their precursor protopanaxadiol. Recently, an artificial biosynthetic pathway of protopanaxadiol was built in Saccharomyces

Ginsenosides are glycosylated triterpenes that are considered to be important pharmaceutically active components of the ginseng (Panax ginseng 'Meyer') plant, which is known as an adaptogenic herb. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying the biosynthesis of triterpene saponin through the

Korean ginseng (Panax ginseng C.A. Meyer) has been widely used for medicinal purposes and contains potent plant secondary metabolites, including ginsenosides. To obtain transcriptomic data that offers a more comprehensive view of functional genomics in P. ginseng, we generated genome-wide
