Fig. 2From: Characterization of a second secologanin synthase isoform producing both secologanin and secoxyloganin allows enhanced de novo assembly of a Catharanthus roseus transcriptomeSLS1 and SLS2 catalyze the conversion of loganin in secologanin and secoxyloganin. a LC-MS chromatograms using selected ion monitoring (loganin, mass-to-charge ratio 413; secologanin, mass-to-charge ratio 433; secoxyloganin, mass-to-charge ration 403) of the reaction products of yeast extracts from cell cultures expressing either SLS1 or SLS2 or containing the empty pYeDP60 vector, incubated with loganin or secologanin. b Schematic reaction catalyzed by SLS1 and SLS2 highlighting the aldehyde to acid conversionBack to article page
