S-adenosyl-l-methionine: Anol-O-methyltransferase activity in organ cultures of Pimpinella anisum

Supercritical Extraction of Essential Oil from Aniseed (Pimpinella anisum L) Using CO2: Solubility, Kinetics, and Composition Data

“…On the other hand, for the steam distillation oil there was no difference between the relative proportions of the above substances. The presence of cis-and trans-pseudoisoeugenyl 2-methylbutyrate has been reported in the literature (19)(20)(21).…”

“…On the other hand, for the steam distillation oil there was no difference between the relative proportions of the above substances. The presence of cis - and trans -pseudoisoeugenyl 2-methylbutyrate has been reported in the literature ( − ). Table shows, for every pressure, that the amount of anethole remained approximately constant for all extraction time intervals; nonetheless, at 100 bar, it decreased by ∼6% from the first extraction time interval (0−20 min) to that collected over the last extraction time interval (100−120 min).…”

The biosynthesis of shikimate metabolites

“…Recent experiments have reversed this conclusion, and anol is now implicated as an obligatory intermediate. 252,253 Although both 121 and 122 are incorporated into EPB in callus cultures of P. anisum, the incorporation of anol 121 is severely depressed by its rapid modification by peroxidases. When fed along with sodium azide, an inhibitor of peroxidases, incorporations were dramatically increased, and anol was substantially better than (4-methoxy)cinnamyl alcohol as a precursor.…”
