Elucidation and reconstitution of hydrolyzable tannin biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology
Hydrolyzable tannins (HTs) are a class of polyphenols produced mostly in core eudicot plants. They accumulate in various plant tissues and are considered to function as defense compounds that protect against herbivory, infections, and toxic metals (specifically aluminum ions).
