Abstract
In the investigation of a pathway for ethylene biosynthesis, intermediates arising from the metabolism of β-alanine-2-14C to ethylene by enzyme powders from wax-bean cotyledons were isolated and identified by paper and thin-layer chromatography. Quantitative determinations of the label have provided evidence for the conversion of β-alanine through malonic semialdehyde, β-hydroxypropionic acid, and acrylic acid to ethylene.
