Taxiphyllin
(R)-4-hydroxymandelonitrile beta-D-glucoside is a beta-D-glucoside consisting of (R)-prunasin carrying a hydroxy substituent at position 4 on the phenyl ring. It is a beta-D-glucoside and a nitrile. It is functionally related to a (R)-prunasin. Taxiphyllin is a natural product found in Girgensohnia oppositiflora, Caroxylon tetrandrum, and other organisms with data available. Dhurrin is found in borage. Cyanogenic glucoside isolated from Sorghum vulgare (sorghum) Dhurrin is a cyanogenic glycoside occurring in plants. Its biosynthesis has been elucidated. Dhurrin is hydrolyzed in the stomach of an insect into a carbohydrate and aglycone. The aglycone is unstable and releases hydrogen cyanide Cyanogenic glucoside of Macadamia ternifolia. Taxiphyllin is found in many foods, some of which are naranjilla, bayberry, celeriac, and red beetroot.
Dhurrin
Dhurrin is a cyanogenic glycoside occurring in plants. Its biosynthesis has been elucidated. Dhurrin is hydrolyzed in the stomach of an insect into a carbohydrate and aglycone. The aglycone is unstable and releases hydrogen cyanide. (Wikipedia) In biosynthesis of the cyanogenic glucoside dhurrin in Sorghum bicolor, the UDP-glucosyltransferase UGT85B1 catalyzes the conversion of p-hydroxymandelonitrile into dhurrin. (PMID: 16169969) In Sorghum, the cyanogenic glucoside dhurrin is derived from l-tyrosine in a pathway involving the two cytochromes P450 (CYPs) CYP79A1 and CYP71E1, a glucosyltransferase (UGT85B1), and the redox partner NADPH-dependent cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR). (PMID: 21620426) Synthesis of the tyrosine derived cyanogenic glucoside dhurrin in Sorghum bicolor is catalyzed by two multifunctional, membrane bound cytochromes P450, CYP79A1 and CYP71E1, and a soluble UDPG-glucosyltransferase, UGT85B1. In the presence of CYP79A1 and CYP71E1, the localization of UGT85B1 shifted towards the surface of the ER membrane in the periphery of biosynthetic active cells, demonstrating in planta dhurrin metabolon formation.
