 | | In Wollastonia, DMSP is synthesized by methylation of methionine to S-methylmethionine (SMM) in the cytosol (Hanson et al, 1994; James et al, 1995ab), transport of SMM into the chloroplast, decarboxylation and deamination of SMM to DMSP-aldehyde (James et al, 1995b), and oxidation of the aldehyde to DMSP in the chloroplast (Trossat et al, 1996). |
