Figure 1.

The main breakdown scheme of glucosinolates with possible detection methods of the products. Enzymatic reactions are shown with bold arrows, enzymes have italic font. The reactions that occur in vivo, are shown in black. Detection methods are either blue (those which require an operating myrosinase) or green (methods reliant only on similarity of sequences). The default rearrangement products of the thiohydroximates are isothiocyanates, alternative reaction products (from top to bottom) are nitriles, thiocyanates and epithionitriles. In our model, R1 = allyl- (sinigrin is converted to allyl isothiocyanate), R2 = 2-aminoethyl- (cysteamine).
