Biogenesis of sulfonium compounds in a dinoflagellate; methionine cascade

Feeding experiments of 13C-labeled compounds to dinoflagellates have unveiled existence of methionine cascade pathway from methionine to sulfonium compounds such as 3-dimethylsulfoniopropionate, gonyauline and gonyol in a dinoflagellate. The biogenesis of gonyauline, gonyol and DMSP from methionine...

Description
Summary:Feeding experiments of 13C-labeled compounds to dinoflagellates have unveiled existence of methionine cascade pathway from methionine to sulfonium compounds such as 3-dimethylsulfoniopropionate, gonyauline and gonyol in a dinoflagellate. The biogenesis of gonyauline, gonyol and DMSP from methionine was established.
