Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) arm of catecholamine pathway catalyzes the conversion of L-tyrosine to L-DOPA in Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC var. pruriens: An integrated pathway analysis using field grown and in vitro callus cultures

Mucuna pruriens (L.) DC var. pruriens is the natural source for L-DOPA, precursor of the neurotransmitter dopamine, used widely in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. However, L-DOPA synthesis in plants is mediated either by Catecholamine (CA) pathway or alternate pathway catalyzed by Cytochr...
