We report here on the identification of the major plasma membrane (PM) ascorbate-reducible b-type cytochrome of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) and soybean (Glycine max) hypocotyls as orthologs of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) AIR12 (for auxin induced in root cultures). Soybean AIR12, which is
Plant-specific bioactive compounds including feruloyltyramine (FT), 4-coumaroyltyramine (CT), and caffeoyltyramine (CaT) were simultaneously produced in Escherichia coli by heterologous expression of two biosynthetic genes encoding 4-coumarate:coenzyme A ligase and tyramine
Trans-plasma membrane electron transfer is achieved by b-type cytochromes of different families, and plays a fundamental role in diverse cellular processes involving two interacting redox couples that are physically separated by a phospholipid bilayer, such as iron uptake and redox signaling.
Cytochromes b561 (cyts b561) constitute a family of eukaryotic membrane proteins, catalysing ascorbate (Asc)-mediated trans-membrane electron transport, and hence likely involved in Asc regeneration. A class of proteins (DoH-CB) has been identified in plants and animals, containing the cyt b561
(S)-Norcoclaurine synthase (NCS) (EC 4.2.1.78) catalyzes the condensation of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylethylamine (dopamine) and 4-hydroxyphenylacetaldehyde (4-HPAA) as the first committed step in the biosynthesis of benzylisoquinoline alkaloids such as morphine, sanguinarine, and berberine, in plants. A
