  • [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/viewer.fcgi?db=nucleotide&val=169745 Tyrosine Ammonia Lyase] (TAL) - Begins resveratrol biosynthetic pathway by catalyzing the the conversion of L-tyrosine to ammonia and p-coumaric acid. Also has activity as Phenylalanine Ammonia Lyase (PAL) via conversion of L-phenylalanine to ammonia and trans-cinnamic acid.
    • Our Tyrosine Ammonia Lyase was selected specifically because of its relatively high TAL/PAL activity ratio, and its proven successful activity in S. cerevisiae.
