Besides defence pathways regulated by classical stress hormones, distinct amino acid
metabolic pathways constitute integral parts of the plant immune system. Mutations in …

Chiral amines represent a prominent functional group in pharmaceuticals and
agrochemicals and are hence attractive targets for asymmetric synthesis. Since the …

Astrocytes are heterogeneous glial cells of the central nervous system,–. However, the
physiological relevance of astrocyte diversity for neural circuits and behaviour remains …

The nonprotein amino acid pipecolic acid (Pip) regulates plant systemic acquired resistance
and basal immunity to bacterial pathogen infection. In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) …

Summary l‐lysine catabolic routes in plants include the saccharopine pathway to α‐
aminoadipate and decarboxylation of lysine to cadaverine. The current review will cover a …

The lysine catabolism pathway differs in adult mammalian brain from that in extracerebral
tissues. The saccharopine pathway is the predominant lysine degradative pathway in …

Crystallins are the abundant, long-lived proteins of the eye lens. The major human
crystallins belong to two different superfamilies: the small heat-shock proteins (α-crystallins) …

Abstract A NADPH-dependent (S)-imine reductase (SIR) was purified to be homogeneous
from the cell-free extract of Streptomyces sp. GF3546. SIR appeared to be a homodimer …

Metabolic pathways in eubacteria and archaea often are encoded by operons and/or gene
clusters (genome neighborhoods) that provide important clues for assignment of both …

N‐Functionalized amino acids are important building blocks for the preparation of diverse
bioactive molecules, including peptides. The development of sustainable manufacturing …
