The major anthocyanin in the leaves and stems of Arabidopsis thaliana has been isolated and shown to be cyanidin 3-O-[2-O(2-O-(sinapoyl)-beta-D-xylopyranosyl)-6-O-(4-O-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl)-p-coumaroyl-beta-D-glucopyranoside] 5-O-[6-O-(malonyl) beta-D-glucopyranoside]. This anthocyanin is a glucosylated version of one of the anthocyanins found in the flowers of the closely related Matthiola incana.

Glycosylation modification of anthocyanins is important as a preceding step to acylation modification. Cyanidin-3-O-(p-coumaroyl)glucoside-5-O-malonylglucoside (Cy3pCG5MaG) is one of the major anthocyanin substances in blue-flowered grape hyacinth, but its 5-position glycosylation is unknown. Here, we identified two glycoside hydrolase family 1 genes, MaAGGT1 and MaAGGT5, which use acyl-glucose as a donor and are involved in the glycosylation modification of anthocyanins in grape hyacinth.

Purinergic signaling plays a major role in aging and neurodegenerative diseases, which are associated with memory decline. Blackcurrant (BC), an anthocyanin-rich berry, is renowned for its antioxidant and neuroprotective activities. However, evidence on the effects of BC on purinergic signaling is lacking.

Soil contamination with toxic heavy metals [such as aluminum (Al)] is becoming a serious global problem due to the rapid development of the social economy. Although plant growth-promoting rhizo-bacteria (PGPR) are the major protectants to alleviate metal toxicity, the study of these bacteria to ameliorate the toxic effects of Al is limited. Therefore, the present study was conducted to investigate the combined effects of different levels of (5 ppm and 10 ppm) of accession number of MT123456 on plant growth and biomass, photosynthetic pigments, gas exchange attributes, oxidative stress and response of antioxidant compounds (enzymatic and nonenzymatic), and their specific gene expression, sugars, nutritional status of the plant, organic acid exudation pattern and Al accumulation from the different parts of the plants, which was spiked with different levels of Al [0 µM (i.

The winemaking process generates huge amounts of waste every year. Fermented grape pomace, the major by-waste product, holds significant value due to its chemical composition and technological properties. In this study a multi-omics approach was employed for the detailed molecular characterization of fermented grape pomace from Montepulciano grape, a widely used Italian red grape variety.

Oral supplementation of anthocyanins-rich haskap () berry (HB) reduces 4-(methylnitrosamino)-1-(3-pyridyl)-1-butanone (NNK)-induced lung tumorigenesis, cytotoxicity, DNA damage, and modulated inflammation in vitro and in vivo. The procarcinogen NNK is metabolically activated by cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes, producing reactive metabolites that induce lung carcinogenesis. : Therefore, we hypothesized that the HB-modulated protective effect against NNK could be due to its ability to suppress P450 enzymes.
