Four new mulinane-type diterpenoids besides the known compounds mulin-11,13-dien-20-oic acid, 13α-hydroxyazorellane, 13β-hydroxyazorellane, mulinolic acid, azorellanol, and mulin-11,13-dien-18-acetoxy-16,20-dioic acid were isolated from the Chilean plant Azorella trifurcata. One of the new metabol
A new triterpene (1), 3-β-O-olean-11,13 (18)-diene-23,28-dioic acid, together with five known compounds (2-6), was isolated from Anoectochilus elwesii and their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic methods and comparison with the literature data. Compound 1 was the first example of

Cytosolic acetyl-CoA is involved in the synthesis of a variety of compounds, including waxes, sterols and rubber, and is generated by the ATP citrate lyase (ACL). Plants over-expressing ACL were generated in an effort to understand the contribution of ACL activity to the carbon flux of acetyl-CoA to

… We succeeded in purifying the carotenoid produced by Bacillus firmus GB1 using chromatography on polystyrenic synthetic adsorbents, and identified it as 4,4'-diapolycopene-4,4'-dioic acid by HRESI-MS and NMR analyses of it and its dimethylester. … In addition, we clarified the singlet oxygen (1O2) quenching activities of 4,4'-diapolycopene-4,4'-dioic acid and its methyl esters (mono and dimethyl ester). …
… In our ongoing studies on medicinal plant resources of the Himalayas, 2β,15α-dihydroxy-ent-kaur-16-ene-2-O-β-glucoside, creticoside A (1), 2α,3β,19α-trihydroxyurs-12-ene-24,28-dioic acid 28-O-β-glucoside, trachelosperoside A-1(2), 2α,3β,19α-trihydroxyurs-12-ene-24,28-dioic acid, trachelosperogenin A (3), tiliroside (4) and kaempferol-3-O-β-glucoside (5) were isolated from the leaves of Rubus pedunculosus D. …
