Molecular functional mechanisms of two alcohol acetyltransferases in Lavandula x intermedia (lavandin) [PDF]
Volatile esters are key flavor components in most plants, including Lavandula x intermedia (lavandin). The final step in ester biosynthesis is catalyzed by Lavandula x intermedia alcohol acyltransferases (LiAATases), which attach alcohols to acyl groups.
