Abstract
A cell-free system from Andrographis paniculata tissue cultures incorporates 3H from (3RS)-[2-14C, 5-3H2]mevalonate into trans,trans-farnesol without loss and into the cis,trans-isomer with loss of one sixth of the label; this strongly supports trans→cisisomerisation via aldehydes.Keywords
