Fatty acid derivative biosynthetic pathway. Fatty acid precursors (linoleic and linolenic acids) enter the LOX pathway and are converted to 9- and 13-hydroperoxide, which are oxidized and converted to volatiles by hydroperoxide lyase (HPL) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH). AAT, alcohol acyltransferase; ADH, alcohol dehydrogenase; AOS, allene oxide synthase; HPL, hydroperoxide lyase; LOX, lipoxygenase; PUFAs, polyunsaturated fatty acids.
