Plants produce an astonishing variety of chemical substances. Most of these metabolites are involved in chemical communication and serve to defend against pests, protect against pathogens, and attract ...

Among key uraemic toxins derived from tryptophan, higher indoxyl sulphate levels are independently associated with a greater ...

Indole, and structures derived from it, are a component of many natural substances, such as the amino acid tryptophan. A new catalytic reaction produces cyclopenta[b]indoles -- frameworks made of ...

Flowering plants need indole: Indole is important for plant defense and for attracting pollinators. Indole biosynthesis occurs via a pseudoenzyme: Although TSB-like is essential for indole formation, ...
