Transcriptome analysis of bitter acid biosynthesis and precursor pathways in hop (Humulus lupulus)

BACKGROUND: Bitter acids (e.g. humulone) are prenylated polyketides synthesized in lupulin glands of the hop plant (Humulus lupulus) which are important contributors to the bitter flavour and stability of beer. Bitter acids are formed from acyl-CoA precursors derived from branched-chain amino acid (...
