| In Vitro | The biosynthetic pathway leading to benzylisoquinoline alkaloids originates from the enzyme-catalyzed condensation of dopamine and 4-hydrophenylacetaldehyde to yield (S)-norcoclaurine. Both substrates are secondary metabolites derived from the decarboxylation/hydroxylation/deamination of tyrosine[1]. |
