The sesquiterpene α-farnesene and its corresponding oxidation products, namely conjugated trienols (CTols) is well known to be correlated with the development of superficial scald, a typical physiological disorder after a long term of cold storage in...
Sesquiterpene synthases (STSs) catalyze the formation of a large class of plant volatiles called sesquiterpenes. While thousands of putative STS sequences from diverse plant species are available, only a small number of them have been functionally ch...
Training algorithms to computationally plan multistep organic syntheses has been a challenge for more than 50 years. However, the field has progressed greatly since the development of early programs such as LHASA, for which reaction choices at each s...
The discovery of macromolecular targets for bioactive agents is currently a bottleneck for the informed design of chemical probes and drug leads. Typically, activity profiling against genetically manipulated cell lines or chemical proteomics is pursu...
INTRODUCTION: Keloids characterized by fibroblast hyperproliferation and depositions of collagen which similar to cancer cells. Tagitinin C is a class of sesquiterpene lactones (SLS) was isolated from the leaves of the moon flower (Hemsley) A. Gray....
