After enrichment culture with indole-3-carboxylate in static culture, a novel reversible decarboxylase, indole-3-carboxylate decarboxylase, was found in Arthrobacter nicotianae FI1612 and several molds. The enzyme reaction was examined in resting-cell reactions with A. nicotianae FI1612. The enzyme activity was induced

Dietary indoles in cruciferous vegetables induce cytochrome P450 enzymes and have prevented tumors in various animal models. Because estradiol metabolism is also cytochrome P450 mediated and linked to breast cancer risk, indoles may similarly reduce estrogen-responsive tumors in humans. We

In plants, a host's responses to an attempted infection include activation of various secondary metabolite pathways, some of which are specific for particular plant phylogenetic clades. Phytochemicals that represent respective end products in plant immunity have been stereotypically linked to

The chemical structures and accumulation kinetics of several major soluble as well as wall-bound, alkali-hydrolyzable compounds induced upon infection of Arabidopsis thaliana leaves with Pseudomonas syringae pathovar tomato were established. All identified accumulating products were structurally related to tryptophan. Most
