Enantioselectivity of VvGT7a determined by chiral phase GC-MS analysis of citronellol. A, A racemic mixture of R,S-citronellol was used as a substrate for VvGT7a. B, Residual citronellol is depleted in R-citronellol. C, R-Citronellol is released by acid-catalyzed hydrolysis from citronellyl β-d-glucoside. Signals labeled with x are by-products of the hydrolysis. D, Enantiomerically pure R-citronellol was used as reference material. Traces in A, C, and D were smoothed.
