Generation of Isoprenoid and Hydrogen Peroxide Products by Recombinant Arabidopsis FC Lyase.

Product Production, pmol min−1 mg−1***
Farnesal + farnesol* 1,333 ± 0
H2O2** 1,195 ± 28

* NADase pretreatments were not performed. Consequently, farnesal and farnesol were resolved and quantified by gas chromatography and the amounts summed. Because this experiment was performed with a different preparation of recombinant Arabidopsis FC lyase (i.e. a different baculovirus infection) from that described in Figure 4, the activity is higher. ** Peroxide formation was slightly less than farnesal and farnesol, presumably due to peroxidase activity in Sf9 cell extracts. *** The standard error of the mean is indicated.
