Fig. 1: Schematic representation of the furanocoumarin biosynthetic pathway and the validated catalytic enzymes in the Apiaceae, Moraceae, Rutaceae, and Brassicaceae families.

From: Integrative multi-omics data provide insights into the biosynthesis of furanocoumarins and mechanisms regulating their accumulation in Angelica dahurica

Fig. 1

Solid arrows indicate steps for which a biosynthetic gene has been discovered, and dashed arrows indicate proposed step reactions and the catalyzing enzymes are unknown. The red color shows the newly formed structures at each step.
