Gaultherase

/ɡɔːlˈθɛreɪs/ noun

Definition

An enzyme found in certain plants of the genus Gaultheria; it breaks down specific organic compounds and is important in plant biochemistry and flavor development.

Etymology

From 'Gaultheria' (a plant genus) + '-ase' (biochemical suffix for enzymes). Named after the Gaultheria plant, which was itself named after Jean-François Gaultier, an 18th-century Canadian botanist.

Kelly Says

Gaultherase is the enzyme that makes wintergreen leaves smell like wintergreen—it's a perfect example of how enzymes have specific jobs in nature, creating the exact flavors and scents plants use to attract or defend against insects.
