Skirball Chemical Biology and Proteomics Laboratory, The Salk Institute for Biological Studies, 10010 North Torrey Pines Road, La Jolla, CA 92037 Communicated by Anthony R. Cashmore, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, May 5, 2006 (received for review March 31, 2006) Phenylpropenes such as chavicol, t-anol, eugenol, and isoeugenol are produced by plants as defense compounds against animals and microorganisms and as floral attractants of pollinators. Moreover, humans have used phenylpropenes since antiquity for food pres- ervation and flavoring and as medicinal agents. Previous research suggested that the phenylpropenes are synthesized in plants from substituted phenylpropenols, although the identity of the en- zymes and the nature of the reaction mechanism involved in this transformation have remained obscure. We show here that glan- dular trichomes of sweet basil (Ocimum basilicum), which synthe- size and accumulate phenylpropenes, possess an enzyme that can use coniferyl acetate and NADPH to form eugenol.

Exposure to chemicals is suspected of playing a main role in the development of some adverse health effects in humans. Additionally, European regulatory authorities have recognized the risk associated with combined exposure to multiple chemicals. Testing all possible combinations of the tens of thousands environmental chemicals is impractical. This PhD project was launched to apply existing computational systems biology methods to toxicological research. In this thesis, I present in three projects three different approaches to using com- putational toxicology to aid classical toxicological investigations. In project I, we predicted human health effects of five pesticides using publicly available data. We obtained a grouping of the chemical according to their potential human health ef- fects that were in concordance with their effects in experimental animals.

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), Acori Tatarinowii Rhizoma (ATR) is widely used to treat memory and cognition dysfunction. Tis study aimed to confrm evidence regarding the potential therapeutic efect of ATR on Alzheimer’s disease (AD) using a system network level based in silico approach. Study results showed that the compounds in ATR are highly connected to AD-related signaling pathways, biological processes, and organs. Tese fndings were confrmed by compound-target network, target-organ location network, gene ontology analysis, and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis. Most compounds in ATR have been reported to have antifbrillar amyloid plaques, anti-tau phosphorylation, and anti-infammatory efects. Our results indicated that compounds in ATR interact with multiple targets in a synergetic way.
