Methionine, glucosinolates

Methylthiobutyl glucosinolate derives from L-methionine by a complex elongation process leading to dihomomethionine. Four of the five carbons of methionine are retained, one being lost in a decarboxylation. The two necessary additional carbons each derive from a methyl group of acetyl-S-CoA by a complex, multi-step condensation mechanism (Equation 11) ... [Pg.688]

These reactions to 4-methylthiobutyl glucosinolate, the precursor for sulforaphane formation, have been extensively studied in Eruca sativa (arugula, rocket).64 A gene controlling variation in the glucosinolates of Arabidopsis is part of the methionine elongation pathway just described.65... [Pg.688]

Glucosinolates are derived from amino acids. The precursor amino acids comprise seven protein amino acids (alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan), a number of chain-elongated methionines (CH3-S-(CH2)2-(CH2)n-CH(NH2)-COOH, n = 1-9), and chain-elongated... [Pg.226]

Glucosinolates are divided into three classes based on the general chemical properties of the amino acid precursors. Aliphatic glucosinolates variously contain a straight carbon chain derived from methionine or a branched chain fix)m isoleucine, leucine or valine. Indole glucosinolates are formed from tryptophan, and the aromatic glucosinolates are derived from phenylalanine or tyrosine. ... [Pg.21]
