Salicylic acid (SA) is generally considered to be a critical signal transduction factor in plant
defenses against pathogens. It could be converted to methyl salicylate (MeSA) for remote …

We cloned a salicylic acid/benzoic acid carboxyl methyltransferase gene, OsBSMT1, from
Oryza sativa. A recombinant OsBSMT1 protein obtained by expressing the gene in …

Methyl salicylate (MeSA), which is synthesized in plants from salicylic acid (SA) by
methyltransferases, has roles in defense against microbial and insect pests. Most of the …

The salicylic acid (SA) plays a critical role during the establishment of systemic acquired
resistance (SAR) in uninfected plant tissues after localised exposure to a pathogen. Here …

We reported previously that overexpression of a salicylic acid (SA) methyltransferase1 gene
from rice (OsBSMT1) or a SA glucosyltransferase1 gene from Arabidopsis thaliana …

Salicylic acid (SA) plays an essential role in the growth and development of plants, and in
their response to abiotic stress. Previous studies have mostly focused on the effects of …

Sulphonation of small molecules by cytosolic sulphotransferases in mammals is an
important process in which endogenous molecules are modified for inactivation/activation of …

Salicylic acid (SA) plays a pivotal role in plant resistance to pathogens. Salicylic acid
carboxyl methyltransferase (SAMT) is an enzyme for catalyzing the formation of methyl …

Drought is the main environmental factor which limits growth, photosynthesis and yield of
agricultural crops worldwide. Salicylic acid (SA) is a phenolic compound involved in plant …

ABSTRACT SABATH methyltransferases convent plant small-molecule metabolites into
volatile methyl esters, which play important roles in many biological processes and defense …
