Bracken A, Gekko C, Suss N, Lueders E, Cui Q, Fu Q, et al.
J Am Chem Soc . 2024 Jan; 146(4):2524-2548. PMID: 38230968
Natural products perennially serve as prolific sources of drug leads and chemical probes, fueling the development of numerous therapeutics. Despite their scarcity, natural products that modulate protein function through covalent...

Lam L, Lui A, Bartley L, Mikami B, Umezawa T, Lo C
J Exp Bot . 2024 Jan; 75(6):1671-1695. PMID: 38198655
Lignin, flavonoids, melatonin, and stilbenes are plant specialized metabolites with diverse physiological and biological functions, supporting plant growth and conferring stress resistance. Their biosynthesis requires O-methylations catalyzed by 5-hydroxyconiferaldehyde O-methyltransferase...

Lui A, Pow K, Lin N, Lam L, Liu G, Godwin I, et al.
Nat Commun . 2023 Jun; 14(1):3462. PMID: 37308495
O-Methylated stilbenes are prominent nutraceuticals but rarely produced by crops. Here, the inherent ability of two Saccharinae grasses to produce regioselectively O-methylated stilbenes is reported. A stilbene O-methyltransferase, SbSOMT, is...

Lam P, Wang L, Lui A, Liu H, Takeda-Kimura Y, Chen M, et al.
Plant Physiol . 2021 Dec; 188(4):1993-2011. PMID: 34963002
Lignin is a complex phenylpropanoid polymer deposited in the secondary cell walls of vascular plants. Unlike most gymnosperm and eudicot lignins that are generated via the polymerization of monolignols, grass...

Lam P, Lui A, Wang L, Liu H, Umezawa T, Tobimatsu Y, et al.
Front Plant Sci . 2021 Sep; 12:733198. PMID: 34512707
Tricin (3',5'-dimethoxyflavone) is a specialized metabolite which not only confers stress tolerance and involves in defense responses in plants but also represents a promising nutraceutical. Tricin-type metabolites are widely present...

Wang L, Lam P, Lui A, Zhu F, Chen M, Liu H, et al.
J Exp Bot . 2020 May; 71(16):4715-4728. PMID: 32386058
Flavonoids are essential for male fertility in some but not all plant species. In rice (Oryza sativa), the chalcone synthase mutant oschs1 produces flavonoid-depleted pollen and is male sterile. The...

New Phytol . 2020 Feb; 228(1):269-284. PMID: 32083753
Tricin (3',5'-dimethoxylated flavone) is a predominant flavonoid amongst monocots but occurs only in isolated and unrelated dicot lineages. Although tricin biosynthesis has been intensively studied in monocots, it has remained...

Lam P, Lui A, Yamamura M, Wang L, Takeda Y, Suzuki S, et al.
New Phytol . 2019 Mar; 223(1):204-219. PMID: 30883799
In rice (Oryza sativa), OsF2H and OsFNSII direct flavanones to independent pathways that form soluble flavone C-glycosides and tricin-type metabolites (both soluble and lignin-bound), respectively. Production of soluble tricin metabolites...

Milne R, Dibley K, Schnippenkoetter W, Mascher M, Lui A, Wang L, et al.
Plant Physiol . 2018 Oct; 179(4):1285-1297. PMID: 30305371
Fungal pathogens are a major constraint to global crop production; hence, plant genes encoding pathogen resistance are important tools for combating disease. A few resistance genes identified to date provide...
