Cell-free systems from Catharanthus roseus plants are utilized for various studies relating to the biosynthesis of indolealkaloids. Tryptamine (5) and secologanin (6), two fundamental building units, are shown to be incorporated into the alkaloidvindoline (7). In another study, catharanthine (18) and vindoline (7) are utilized by this enzyme system and coupled to the important bisindole biointermediate
