Phenyl ammonia lyase (PAL) involved in biosynthesis of phenolic compound in plants. Following are some statements regarding the action of PAL;

a) PAL catalyze conversion of phenyl alanine to p-coumaric acid

b) PAL catalyzes the conversion of phenyl alanine into trans-Cinnamic acid by elimination of an ammonia molecule

c) The activity of PAL is increased by environmental factors, such as low nutrient levels, light, and fungal infection

d) PAL is situated at a branch point between primary and secondary metabolism, so the reaction that it catalyzes is an important regulatory step in the formation of many phenolic compounds

A new chemical pesticide developed for agricultural use was subjected to the Ames test. The rate of mutation seen in samples treated with the pesticide and liver extract was approximately half that of the samples treated with the liver extract alone; in samples treated with only pesticide, the mutation rate was about the same as that of untreated samples. Which of the following statements could you make about this pesticide?
