Isocapric acid

Stored under continuous light, and placental extracts from non-pungent fruit could synthesize capsaicinoids if vanillylamine and isocapric acid are provided. Together, these results raise the possibility that the gene product at Pml is a regulatory gene or a structural gene upstream in either the phenylpropanoid pathway or the branched chain fatty acid pathway and not capsaicinoid synthase.
