Identification and Partial Characterization of an L-Tyrosine Aminotransferase (TAT) from Arabidopsis thaliana

Figure 9

Secondary metabolites derived from the catabolism of L-Tyrosine and L-Phenylalanine in plants. The synthesis of secondary metabolites that are involved in plant defense occurs via the degradation of L-Tyrosine and L-Phenylalanine through the phenylpropanoid pathway.
