Maize biosynthesis rate

Several enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of phenethylamines in plants have been studied. A tyrosine carboxy-lyase (decarboxylase) isolated from barley seedlings and barley roots has been studied in considerable detail (347-349). The enzyme is rather specific for L-tyrosine and meta-tyrosine ort/io-tyrosine and L-dopa are decarboxylated slowly. Tyrosine carboxylase activity was also demonstrated in wheat and maize (348). Cytisus scoparius contains dopa car-boxy-lyase which decarboxylates d- and L-dopa at about the same rate (350). Tyrosine is decarboxylated 15 times slower. A similar enzyme has been found in the alga Monostroma juscum (174). [Pg.141]
