植物萜类生物合成中的后修饰酶 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
萜类化合物由于其结构类型丰富多样而被称为"terpenome".除了参与植物生长发育、环境应答等生理过程,萜类化合物还应用于医药、有机化工等领域.萜类的生物合成大致可分为前体形成、骨架构建以及后修饰三部分,基本骨架通常由萜类合酶催化形成,进一步在后修饰酶的作用下产生数以万计的萜类化合物.结合我们对香茶菜二萜生物合成的初步研究结果,本文主要针对近年来植物萜类生物合成中的一些有代表性的后修饰酶包括P450单氧酶、双键还原酶、酰基转移酶和糖基转移酶,进行研究现状分析与展望. 相似文献

三萜皂苷生物合成途径研究进展 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
三萜皂苷是一类重要的植物次生代谢产物,在体外具有抗癌、抗病毒、降低胆固醇等药理学作用。由于三萜皂苷生物合成途径中的关键酶在细胞中的表达水平较低,决定了其在植物中的含量低,因而对其生物合成途径的探讨具有重要的现实意义和应用价值。 相似文献

Saponins are a diverse family of secondary metabolites that are produced by many plant species, particularly dicots. These molecules commonly have potent antifungal activity and their natural role in plants is likely to be in protection against attack by pathogenic microbes. They also have a variety of commercial applications including use as drugs and medicines. The enzymes, genes and biochemical pathways involved in the synthesis of these complex molecules are largely uncharacterized for any plant species. Cereals and grasses appear to be generally deficient in saponins with the exception of oats, which produce both steroidal and triterpenoid saponins. The isolation of genes for saponin biosynthesis from oats is now providing tools for the analysis of the evolution and regulation of saponin biosynthesis in monocots. These genes may also have potential for the development of improved disease resistance in cultivated cereals. 相似文献

Saponins are bioactive compounds generally considered to be produced by plants to counteract pathogens and herbivores. Besides their role in plant defense, saponins are of growing interest for drug research as they are active constituents of several folk medicines and provide valuable pharmacological properties. Accordingly, much effort has been put into unraveling the modes of action of saponins, as well as in exploration of their potential for industrial processes and pharmacology. However, the exploitation of saponins for bioengineering crop plants with improved resistances against pests as well as circumvention of laborious and uneconomical extraction procedures for industrial production from plants is hampered by the lack of knowledge and availability of genes in saponin biosynthesis. Although the ability to produce saponins is rather widespread among plants, a complete synthetic pathway has not been elucidated in any single species. Current conceptions consider saponins to be derived from intermediates of the phytosterol pathway, and predominantly enzymes belonging to the multigene families of oxidosqualene cyclases (OSCs), cytochromes P450 (P450s) and family 1 UDP-glycosyltransferases (UGTs) are thought to be involved in their biosynthesis. Formation of unique structural features involves additional biosynthetical enzymes of diverse phylogenetic background. As an example of this, a serine carboxypeptidase-like acyltransferase (SCPL) was recently found to be involved in synthesis of triterpenoid saponins in oats. However, the total number of identified genes in saponin biosynthesis remains low as the complexity and diversity of these multigene families impede gene discovery based on sequence analysis and phylogeny.This review summarizes current knowledge of triterpenoid saponin biosynthesis in plants, molecular activities, evolutionary aspects and perspectives for further gene discovery. 相似文献

The chemical structure of triterpenoid saponins is quite complicated, especially the glucuronide oleanane-type triterpene
carboxylic acid 3,28-bidesmosides (GOTCAB) saponins. Moreover, triterpenoid saponins are numerous as a result of this complicated
structure. This review tries to explain this diversity in terms of plant classification and phylogeny. The study focuses on
the three main successive steps of the biosynthetic pathway of the triterpenoid saponins: cyclisation, oxidation and glycosylation
showing the relationship between triterpenols and sterols in terms of cell membrane evolution and the importance of which
metabolic intermediates involved as aglycones of the triterpenoid saponins, represented progressively less and less in the
advanced groups of the plant kingdom as they are more and more oxidised. This oxidation seems to reflect a better adaptation
to new environmental conditions of some of these groups. By their enormous chemical diversity, the triterpenoid saponins seem
to be good candidates to study the phylogeny of the flowering plants. A first attempt is given using recent advances in botanical
classification for the orders and families by the Angiosperm Phylogenic Group (APG). This study was simplified in the first
step focusing only on the “gypsogenin group” of the GOTCAB saponins. For example, as a result, these compounds are mainly
concentrated in advanced groups such as Caryophyllideae, primitive Rosideae and Asterideae. 相似文献
