Cells treated with compactin, an inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the enzyme which catalyzes the rate-limiting step of the mevalonate pathway, are arrested prior to the DNA synthesis (S) phase of the cell cycle. Identification of a specific

To understand the nematicidal mode of action of phytochemicals derived from plant essential oils against the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus), we evaluated 97 compounds (49 monoterpenes, 17 phenylpropenes, 16 sesquiterpenes, and 15 sulfides) for their inhibitory effects on B. xylophilus

Based on stereoisotopic studies and beta-secondary isotope effects, we propose that the acid-catalyzed cyclization of geranyl acetate proceeds through a concerted mechanism. Under heterogeneous conditions (zeolite Y confinement), a preorganized chairlike transition state predominates, whereas under homogeneous conditions the boat-

Chemical signaling plays an important role in spider sexual communication, yet the chemistry of spider sex pheromones remains poorly understood. Unlike insects and mammals, the identification of spider pheromones has seldom been attempted, and no multicomponent pheromones have been found.
