Lethal synthesis
text:
Lethal synthesis, or suicide metabolism, is the biosynthesis of a toxin from a precursor which is not itself toxic, such as the synthesis of fluorocitrate from fluoroacetate or the synthesis of methylglyoxal from glycerol. The term was first publicised by Rudolph Peters in his Croonian Lecture of 1951.
