This study focused on expression, purification and functional characterization of three key proteins (Urc1p, Urc2p and Urc8p) in the newly discovered uracil catabolism (URC) pathway. A novel expression system was established by using Saccharomyces kluyveri as a host organism for expression of 6-His tagged Urc1p and Urc2p. Moreover, URC8 gene was cloned in pET151/D-TOPO vector and expressed in Esch

An investigation of Eupatorium lasiophthalmum yielded fourteen sesquiterpene lactones (1-14) including one new epimer (7) and a revision of the reported stereochemistry of 2 is suggested. One known sesquiterpene (15) and one triterpene (16) with a novel skeleton were found. Two known flavonoids (17-18) were also isolated. Michael adducts were prepared out of 1, 4 and 5 and their reversibility stud
