Title | Oxidative Decarboxylation of /?^m-Hydroxybenzoic Acids by Peroxidases under in vivo and in vitro Conditions ![]() | ||
Abstract | Oxidative decarboxylation of p-hydroxybenzoic acids in plant cell suspension cultures is catalyzed by peroxidases. This reaction has been characterized in vivo and in vitro. Decarboxylation of sub stituted benzoic acids yields monomeric, dimeric and oligomeric benzoquinones. All peroxidases ob tained from soybean (Glycine max) cell suspension cultures by gel electrophoresis are equally capable to decarboxylate p-hydroxybenzoic acids as indicated by their rather low differences in specific activity for various benzoic acids. | ||
