The Myo-inositol pathway does not contribute to ascorbic acid synthesis.

Plant biology (Stuttgart, Germany) - 1 Jan 2019

Ivanov Kavkova E, Blöchl C, Tenhaken R

Abstract excerpt

Ascorbic acid (AsA) biosynthesis in plants predominantly occurs via a pathway with d-mannose and l-galactose as intermediates. One alternative pathway for AsA synthesis, which is similar to the biosynthesis route in mammals, is controversially discussed for plants. Here, myo-inositol is cleaved to glucuronic acid and then converted via l-gulonate to AsA. In contrast to animals, plants have an effective recycling...
