Abstract: Glucosinolates are important sulfur-rich secondary metabolites in cruciferous vegetables， and the hydrolysate (sulforaphane) has important anticarcinogenic and health-promoting antioxidants biological role for human. This overview includes genes in glucosinolates biosynthetic pathway， i.e. side-chain elongation of precursor amino acids， formation of the core glucosinolate structure and side-chain decoration and in glucoraphanin degradation， such as: BCAT， MAM， CYP79/CYP83， AOP and MYB gene families， and incorporates allogenic material that to influence sulforaphane accumulation， e.g. NaCl， fertilization (S， N， Se)， phytohormones (JA， BRs， IAA)， amino acid and so on. This work was to lay theoretical foundation from gene expression of the pathway on sulforaphane biosynthesis and metabolism.
