jasmonoyl-L-amino acid ligase activity
Catalysis of the reaction: a jasmonate + an L-alpha-amino acid + ATP = a jasmonyl-L-amino acid + AMP + diphosphate + H+. In Arabidopsis, isoleucine is the principal amino acid that conjugates with JA to form JA (JA-Ile). Other amino acid can be conjugated with JA such as valine, leucine, and phenylalanine.
Lewis x epitope biosynthetic process
The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a Lewis x epitope, a trisaccharide (beta-D-galactosyl-(1,4)-[alpha-L-fucosyl-(1,3)]-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosamine) expressed on several glycolipids, glycoproteins, and proteoglycans of the nervous system. The related Lewis x epitope is formed by alpha(1,3) fucosylation of the N-acetylglucosaminyl residue of a type 2 histo-blood group antigen precursor disaccharide.
