Phytol derived from chlorophyll hydrolysis in plants is metabolized via phytenal

Phytol is the isoprenoid alcohol bound in ester linkage to chlorophyll, the most abundant photosynthetic pigment in plants. During leaf senescence, large amounts of phytol are released by chlorophyll degradation. However, the pathway of phytol catabolism in plants is unknown. We hypothesized that ph...
