Abstract

Abstract:

Biosynthesis, degradation pathways, degradation product analysis, degradation product functions of glucosinolates play important roles in the secondary metabolites in Cruciferae plants, which has been reviewed in this paper. The biosynthesis of glucosinolates was completed using amino acids as the substrates through three steps. The degradation pathways of glucosinolates were classified as enzymatic degradation, thermal degradation and chemical degradation. Chemical and chromatographic analyses were the major strategies for the analysis of glucosinolate degradation products. The degradation products of glucosinolates exhibited a positive role in anti-cancer as well as a negative role in anti-nutrient.

Key words: glucosinolates, degradation pathway, degradation product analysis, degradation product function
