Retrograde sulfur flow from glucosinolates to cysteine in Arabidopsis thaliana
Significance Specialized (secondary) metabolites have been largely considered bioactive “end” products synthesized from primary metabolites. We report biochemical evidence of a retrograde flow of sulfur atoms from specialized metabolites (glucosinolates)

Glucosinolates and Isothiocyantes in Processed Rapeseed Determined by HPLC-DAD-qTOF
Glucosinolates are well known as natural antimicrobials and anticarcinogenic agents. However, these compounds can lose their properties and transform into antinutrients, depending on processing conditions.
