Fig. 7From: Identification of a methyltransferase catalyzing the final step of methyl anthranilate synthesis in cultivated strawberryMA production from anthranilic acid in protein extracts from MA positive fruits. Protein extracts were prepared from ‘Mara des Bois’ and ‘Elyana’ fruits. The extracts were incubated with a methyl donor and anthranilic acid. Exclusion of extract, methyl donor or anthranilic acid resulted in no accumulation of MA. Statistical significance (p < 0.0001) was established via ANOVA across treatments (F = 110.7) and time (F = 93.9). MA was not detected in extracts from ‘Elyana’Back to article page
