The ROS are captured by cinnamyl alcohols (precursors of lignins) and immobilized when deposited in cell walls (Barcelo, 1997; Apel & Hirt, 2004).
ulmoides showed antimicrobial and antioxidant activities and then was isolated by bioactivity-guided fractionation to obtain a new cinnamyl glucoside, 1-O-trans-cinnamoyl-[beta]-D-apiofuranosyl-(1a6)-[beta]-D-glucopyranose (1), together with twenty known secondary metabolites (2-21).
It can also be synthesized by aldol condensation of benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde or from cinnamyl alcohol.
During commercial enzyme production, the fungi produce a diverse suite of enzymes, including unwanted side activities including cinnamyl esterase.
From the different parts of the plant, essential oils with various chemical compositions can be obtained, and essential oil from the stem bark contains up to 4% oil consisting of (E)-cinnamaldehyde (65-78%) and eugenol (4-10%), accompanied by low percentages of cinnamyl acetate, methyl-n-amyl-ketone, and mono- and sesquiterpenoids [27].
This phenomenon was related to many mechanisms, for example, phenylpropanoid and the related-enzymes such as phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD), and peroxidase (POD) [21].
Cinnamaldehyde (CAL) is representative [alpha],[beta]-unsaturated aldehydes, which can be hydrogenated first via C=C or C=O double bonds to hydrocinnamaldehyde (HALD) or cinnamyl alcohol (COL), followed by total hydrogenation of these products to hydrocinnamyl alcohol (HALC) (Scheme 1) [1].
Interestingly, although Leaf Star possesses decreased lignin content due to decreased activity of the lignin biosynthetic enzyme, cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase2 (CAD2), it still showed high culm strength.
pisciphila inoculation also improved the root dry weight, non-photochemical quenching values (NPQ), photochemical quenching values (qP), increased the content of related secondary metabolites including anthocyanin, polyphenol and flavonoid and enhanced the enzymatic activities related to secondary metabolism, such as cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), guaiacol peroxidase (G-POD) in sorghum seedlings.
