Institute of Organic Chemistry, Technical Univerity of Berlin, D-1000 Berlin 12 (West).

Published: June 1988

The polar fractions of the extract of the aerial parts of CALENDULA PERSICA afforded eight sesquiterpene glycosides, five derived from viridiflorol, two of beta-eudesmol, and one of 4alpha-hydroxygermacra-1(10) E,5E-diene. In addition to fucopyranosides, also chinovopyranosides were present. The structures were elucidated by high field NMR techniques.

Bracken fern ( sp.) is a viable and vigorous plant with invasive potential, ingestion of which causes chronic illness and cancers in farm animals. Bracken is a suspected human carcinogen, and exposure can result from ingestion of bracken-contaminated water, dairy products, or meat derived from livestock grazing on bracken fern.

The FvABF3-FvALKBH10B-FvSEP3 cascade regulates fruit ripening in strawberry.

Nat Commun

State Key Laboratory of Plant Diversity and Specialty Crops, Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, 100093, China.

Fruit ripening is a highly-orchestrated process that requires the fine-tuning and precise control of gene expression, which is mainly governed by phytohormones, epigenetic modifiers, and transcription factors. How these intrinsic regulators coordinately modulate the ripening remains elusive. Here we report the identification and characterization of FvALKBH10B as an N-methyladenosine (mA) RNA demethylase necessary for the normal ripening of strawberry (Fragaria vesca) fruit.

Diabetes has been declared an epidemy by the World Health Organization and represents a significant metabolic comorbidity. Given the promising pharmaceutical activities of myxobacterial secondary metabolites, we investigated the inhibitory potential of compounds from the soil myxobacterium Archangium sp. UTMC4535, leading to the identification of magnodelavin C, a guaiane sesquiterpene lactone.
