regulation of pulegone metabolism involves menthofuran, the flux of (+)-pulegone through pulegone reductase correlates negatively with the essential oil content of menthofuran, such that menthofuran, and pulegone increase, or decrease, in concert, overview, although (+)-menthofuran does not inhibit (+)-pulegone reductase activity, stem feeding with menthofuran selectively decreases enzyme transcript levels in immature leaves, thereby accounting for decreased reductase activity and increased pulegone content, overview |
