Formation of coenzyme a esters of cinnamic acids with an enzyme preparation from cell suspension cultures of parsley.

The formation of coenzyme A thiol esters of cinnamic, p-coumaric, p-methoxy cinnamic, and ferulic acids was catalyzed by enzyme preparations from cell suspension cultures of leaf petioles from parsley (Petroselinum hortense Hoffm.). Of these acids, p-coumaric acid served as the most efficient substrate. Enzyme activity is markedly increased upon illumination with white light in a manner very similar to that in which the activities of a number of enzymes involved in flavone biosynthesis are stimulated by light. This strongly suggests that the formation of p-coumaroyl coenzyme A is part of this biosynthetic pathway.

Transfer of apiose from UDP-apiose to 7-O-(beta-D-glucosyl)-apigenin and 7-O-(beta-D-glucosyl)-chrysoeriol with an enzyme preparation from parsley.

An enzyme preparation from parsley (Petroselinum hortense Hoffm.) catalyses the formation of apiin (7-O-[beta-D-apio-furanosyl(1-->2)beta-D-glycosyl]-5,7,4'-trihydroxyflavone) from 7-O-(beta-D-glycosyl)-apigenin and UDP-apiose and of the corresponding chrysoeriol-7-apiosyl-glucoside from 7-O(beta-D-glucosyl)-chrysoeriol and UDP-apiose. Neither free apiose nor cyclic apiose-1,2-phosphate can function as a substrate for the transfer reaction.
