摘要

Abstract: The substrate specificity of farnesyl pyrophosphate synthetase of pumpkin fruit was studied by using synthetic 3-methyl-2-alkenyl pyrophosphates. cis-3-Methyl-2-hexenyl pyrophosphate (19) reacted enzymically with isopentenyl pyrophosphate (1) as well as the trans isomer 12, and even cis-3-methyl-2-heptenyl pyrophosphate (20) was reactive, though far less reactive than its trans isomer 13. However, cis-3-methyl-2-octenyl pyrophosphate ( ...
