abstract：:Fatty acid hydroperoxide lyase (HPL) is a novel P-450 enzyme that cleaves fatty acid hydroperoxides to form short-chain aldehydes and oxo-acids. In cucumber seedlings, the activities of both fatty acid 9HPL and 13HPL could be detected. High 9HPL activity was especially evident in hypocotyls. Using a polymerase chain r...
