Functional characterization of Capsicum chinense vanillin aminotransferase: Detection of vanillylamine-forming activity from vanillin

In capsaicin biosynthesis, vanillin aminotransferase (VAMT; EC 2.6.1.119) catalyzes the conversion of vanillin (V) to vanillylamine (VA). In vitro analysis of the recombinant VAMT enzyme has been reported; however, this enzyme catalyzed only the V-forming reaction and not the VA-forming reaction, wh...
