Characterization of Arabidopsis CYP79C1 and CYP79C2 by Glucosinolate Pathway Engineering in Nicotiana benthamiana Shows Substrate Specificity Toward a Range of Aliphatic and Aromatic Amino Acids
Glucosinolates (GLSs) are amino acid-derived defense compounds characteristic of the Brassicales order. Cytochromes P450s of the CYP79 family are the entry point into the biosynthetic pathway of the GLS core structure and catalyze the conversion of amino acids to oximes. In Arabidopsis thaliana, CYP...
