The long road of functional recruitment—The evolution of a gene duplicate to pyrrolizidine alkaloid biosynthesis in the morning glories (Convolvulaceae)

In plants, homospermidine synthase (HSS) is a pathway‐specific enzyme initiating the biosynthesis of pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs), which function as a chemical defense against herbivores. In PA‐producing Convolvulaceae (“morning glories”), HSS originated from deoxyhypusine synthase at least >50...
