Application Notes
p-Coumaric acid is a common plant metabolite, biosynthetically formed by the action of tyrosine ammonia-lyase (TAL) on phenylalanine. p-Coumaric acid is a member of the phenylpropanoid class of lignin biosynthetic precursors. p-Coumaric acid is readily produced by fermentation on media containing plant extracts. The biochemical and pharmacological activity of p-coumaric acid has > 10,000 SciFinder entries and the area is well reviewed by Guzman (2014) and Sharma (2011). p-Coumaric acid a useful standard for analytical and bioassay dereplication.
