Plant Physiology 64:203-205 (1979) © 1979 American Society of Plant Biologists Distribution of a Fatty Acid Cyclase Enzyme System in Plants 1a United States Department of Agriculture, Science and Education Administration, Agricultural Research, Department of Biochemistry, North Dakota State University, Fargo, North Dakota 58105
Extracts from tissues of 24 plant species were tested for the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 13-L-hydroperoxy-cis-9,15-trans-11-octadecatrienoic acid to the cyclic fatty acid 12-oxo-cis-10,15-phytodienoic acid. The enzyme was detected in 15 of the 24 tissues examined, and was demonstrated in seedlings, leaves, and fruits.
