“…Occurrence and activity of the epithiospecifier protein (ESP) leads to the generation of ETNs from alkenyl-GLS aglucons as well as nitriles from non-alkenyl-GLS-aglucons (Burow et al, 2006;Matusheski et al, 2006). Many Brassica species release nitriles and ETNs upon GLS hydrolysis, among them B. oleracea and also B. campestris, B. carinata, and B. rapa (Macleod and Rossiter, 1985;Matusheski et al, 2004;Hanschen and Schreiner, 2017;Klopsch et al, 2017;Klopsch et al, 2018;Hanschen et al, 2019). So far, ESPs were characterized in A. thaliana (Lambrix et al, 2001;De Torres Zabala et al, 2005;Hanschen et al, 2018b) and in Brassica species, such as broccoli (B. oleracea var.…”
