Biosynthesis of the dimethylallyl moiety of glabrol in Glycyrrhiza glabra hairy root cultures via a non-mevalonate pathway.
Incorporation of [1-13C]glucose indicates that the biosynthesis of the hemiterpene moiety of glabrol, the main prenylated flavanone in the hairy root cultures of Glycyrrhiza glabra, proceeds via a glyceraldehyde/pyruvate non-mevalonate pathway.
