The schematic description showing proposed key steps of plant betalain biosynthetic pathway. S, spontaneous reactions; TYR-TOH, tyrosine hydroxylase or monophenolase activity of tyrosinase; TYR-DO, diphenolase activity of tyrosinase; CYP76AD1, a cytochrome P450 enzyme; DODA, 4,5-DOPA-extradiol dioxygenase. Solid arrows show biochemically and molecularly confirmed enzymatic reactions. Dashed arrows show proposed reactions.
