Synthesis for Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) occurs in all locations of plants, within the plastids of the cell, as determined by presence of mRNAs which encode for enzymes in the metabolic pathway.
But also, numerous gut bacteria (main species: Segatella copri and Bacteroides vulgatus / Phocaeicola vulgatus) possess conserved metabolic pathways that are present in fungi and plants but absent in mammals allowing for the Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) biosynthesis using amino acids e.g., [pyruvate](brain://Juoc1TiEpUG8z1xv…
