Effect of Sterol Inhibitors on the Incorporation of14C-Isopentenyl Pyrophosphate into Artemisinin by a Cell-Free System from Artemisia annua Tissue Cultures and Plants
Abstract
A cell-free system from ARTEMISIA ANNUA L. shoot cultures and plants (shoots and roots) which is capable of incorporating (14)C-isopentenyl pyrophosphate ( (14)C-IPP) into artemisinin has been developed. The sterol inhibitors miconazole, AMO 1618, CCC, and MER 29 increased both the incorporation of (14)C-IPP into artemisinin by cell-free extracts and the production of artemisinin in shoot cultures of ARTEMISIA ANNUA.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
