1.
Isolation of the cDNAs encoding (+)6a-hydroxymaackiain 3-O-methyltransferase, the terminal step for the synthesis of the phytoalexin pisatin in Pisum sativum
Wu Q, Preisig C, Vanetten H
Plant Mol Biol . 1998 Feb; 35(5):551-60. PMID: 9349277
Pisatin is the major phytoalexin produced by pea upon microbial infection. The enzyme that catalyzes the terminal step in the pisatin biosynthetic pathway is (+)6a-hydroxymaackiain 3-O-methyltransferase (HMM). We report here...

Induction of 6a-hydroxymaackiain 3-O-methyltransferase and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase mRNA translational activities during the biosynthesis of pisatin
Preisig C, Vanetten H, Moreau R
Arch Biochem Biophys . 1991 Nov; 290(2):468-73. PMID: 1929414
The isoflavonoid phytoalexin pisatin is synthesized by pea (Pisum sativum L.) in response to microbial infection and certain other forms of stress. The terminal step in the biosynthesis of pisatin...

Biosynthesis of the Phytoalexin Pisatin : Isoflavone Reduction and Further Metabolism of the Product Sophorol by Extracts of Pisum sativum
Preisig C, Bell J, Sun Y, Hrazdina G, Matthews D, Vanetten H
Plant Physiol . 1990 Nov; 94(3):1444-8. PMID: 16667851
NADPH-dependent reduction of 2',7-dihydroxy-4',5'-methylenedioxyisoflavone to the isoflavanone sophorol, a proposed intermediate step in pisatin biosynthesis, was detected in extracts of Pisum sativum. This isoflavone reductase activity was inducible by treatment...

Purification and Characterization of S-Adenosyl-l-methionine:6a-Hydroxymaackiain 3-O-Methyltransferase from Pisum sativum
Preisig C, Matthews D, Vanetten H
Plant Physiol . 1989 Oct; 91(2):559-66. PMID: 16667069
The isoflavonoid phytoalexin pisatin is synthesized by Pisum sativum in response to microbial infection and certain other forms of stress. An enzyme which synthesizes pisatin by methylating the 3-hydroxyl of...

Inhibition by Salicylhydroxamic Acid, BW755C, Eicosatetraynoic Acid, and Disulfiram of Hypersensitive Resistance Elicited by Arachidonic Acid or Poly-l-Lysine in Potato Tuber
Preisig C, Kuc J
Plant Physiol . 1987 Jul; 84(3):891-4. PMID: 16665539
The hypothesis that arachidonic acid (AA) induction of sesquiterpene accumulation and browning in potato (Solanum tuberosum) is mediated by a lipoxygenase metabolite of AA was tested using lipoxygenase inhibitors. Salicylhydroxamic...

Arachidonic acid-related elicitors of the hypersensitive response in potato and enhancement of their activities by glucans from Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) deBary
Preisig C, Kuc J
Arch Biochem Biophys . 1985 Jan; 236(1):379-89. PMID: 3966802
The dose response for elicitation of the hypersensitive reaction in potato tuber discs by arachidonic acid (AA) suggested saturation at higher concentrations. Glucans from Phytophthora infestans, inactive themselves as elicitors...
