花青素是一种广泛存在于植物中的水溶性色素,在植物抗逆和预防人类慢性疾病中起着重要作用。花青素生物合成过程在模式植物中的研究较为清晰,其过程主要受多种结构基因编码的酶类及转录调控因子(MYB、bHLH和WD40蛋白)控制。此外,LBD基因家族中的LBD37、LBD38和LBD39基因对花青素的生物合成起负调控作用,microRNA和环境因子对花青素的生物合成过程也起到了调控作用。同时,茉莉酸、赤霉素和脱落酸等植物激素也参与了花青素的生物合成调控过程。近年来,随着人们对植物花青素研究不断深入,越来越多的研究结果揭示花青素合成途径的分子调控机制在不同种植物中存在很大的差异性和复杂性。该文对植物花青素的合成途径、相关酶和各种调控因子进行了综述,并概述了植物花青素合成代谢中基因突变与花色变异的关系,旨在为今后深入研究花青素的分子调控机制,解析其遗传规律以及利用基因工程开展作物遗传改良等方面提供理论依据。  相似文献

原花青素作为植物重要的次生代谢产物,是植物应对生物和非生物胁迫的一种重要防御手段,也是影响植物发育和品质的重要因素。原花青素作为花青素生物合成的一条末端通路在模式植物中已有研究,但是具体代谢和调控机制尚不明确;原花青素作为棕色棉纤维呈色的主要物质,其棉纤维呈色的生化与分子机制仍未完全阐明。本研究从陆地棉(Gossypium hirsutum)中克隆了一个MYB类转录因子基因GhTT2 (transparent testa 2),并对其基因结构、表达模式、亚细胞定位及功能进行了分析。结果表明:GhTT2转录因子具有典型的MYB结构域,在纤维中优势表达,其转录水平随花青素含量增加而降低;该基因可被原核诱导表达;与GFP融合的重组蛋白定位在细胞核;酵母转化结果表明GhTT2具有转录激活功能;在棉花中沉默GhTT2基因的表达,导致原花青素含量显著降低,表明其可能参与调控陆地棉原花青素的生物合成。本研究结果为深入阐明MYB类转录因子参与调控植物原花青素生物合成途径的分子机制提供参考。  相似文献

高等植物二氢黄酮醇4-还原酶基因研究进展   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
花青素苷是影响植物花瓣呈色的重要色素,而花色是决定花卉观赏价值和商业价值的一个重要因素。在花青素苷的生物合成过程中,二氢黄酮醇4-还原酶(DFR)是花青素苷生物合成下游途径中的第一个关键的酶。因此,DFR在高等植物花色的形成过程中发挥极其重要的作用,是形成花青素苷的一个非常重要的调控点。DFR对3种二氢黄酮醇底物具有选择特异性,但决定DFR底物特异性的分子机制目前仍不十分清楚。该文简单概述了花青素苷生物合成途径及其转录调控机制,并结合作者的工作重点综述了DFR的底物特异性以及克隆的DFR基因在植物基因工程中的应用。  相似文献

The plant hormone auxin, which is predominantly represented by indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), is involved in the regulation of plant growth and development. Although IAA was the first plant hormone identified, the biosynthetic pathway at the genetic level has remained unclear. Two major pathways for IAA biosynthesis have been proposed: the tryptophan (Trp)-independent and Trp-dependent pathways. In Trp-dependent IAA biosynthesis, four pathways have been postulated in plants: (i) the indole-3-acetamide (IAM) pathway; (ii) the indole-3-pyruvic acid (IPA) pathway; (iii) the tryptamine (TAM) pathway; and (iv) the indole-3-acetaldoxime (IAOX) pathway. Although different plant species may have unique strategies and modifications to optimize their metabolic pathways, plants would be expected to share evolutionarily conserved core mechanisms for auxin biosynthesis because IAA is a fundamental substance in the plant life cycle. In this review, the genes now known to be involved in auxin biosynthesis are summarized and the major IAA biosynthetic pathway distributed widely in the plant kingdom is discussed on the basis of biochemical and molecular biological findings and bioinformatics studies. Based on evolutionarily conserved core mechanisms, it is thought that the pathway via IAM or IPA is the major route(s) to IAA in plants.  相似文献

Yellow seed is a desirable characteristic for the breeding of oilseed Brassica crops, but the manifestation of seed coat color is very intricate due to the involvement of various pigments, the main components of which are flavonols, proanthocyanidin (condensed tannin), and maybe some other phenolic relatives, like lignin and melanin. The focus of this review is to examine the genetics mechanism regarding the biosynthesis and regulation of these pigments in the seed coat of oilseed Brassica. This knowledge came largely from recent researches on the molecular mechanism of TRANSPARENT TESTA (tt) and similar mutations in the ancestry model plant of Brassica, Arabidopsis. Some key enzymes in the flavonoid (flavonols and proanthocyanidin) biosynthetic pathway have been characterized in tt mutants. Some orthologs to these TRANSPARENT TESTA genes have also been cloned in Brassica species. However, it is suggested that some alterative metabolism pathways, including lignin and melanin, might also be involved in seed color manifestation. Polyphenol oxidases, such as laccase, tyrosinase, or even peroxidase, participate in the oxidation step in proanthocyanidin, lignin, and melanin biosynthesis. Moreover, some researches also suggested that melanic pigment in black-seeded Brassica was several fold higher than in yellow-seeded Brassica. Although more experiments are required to evaluate the importance of lignin and melanin in seed coat browning, the current results suggest that the flavonols and proanthocyanidin are not the only roles affecting seed color.  相似文献

Proanthocyanidins--a final frontier in flavonoid research?   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Proanthocyanidins are oligomeric and polymeric end products of the flavonoid biosynthetic pathway. They are present in the fruits, bark, leaves and seeds of many plants, where they provide protection against predation. At the same time they give flavor and astringency to beverages such as wine, fruit juices and teas, and are increasingly recognized as having beneficial effects on human health. The presence of proanthocyanidins is also a major quality factor for forage crops. The past 2 years have seen important breakthroughs in our understanding of the biosynthesis of the building blocks of proanthocyanidins, the flavan-3-ols (+)-catechin and (-)-epicatechin. However, virtually nothing is known about the ways in which these units are assembled into the corresponding oligomers in vivo. Molecular genetic approaches are leading to an understanding of the regulatory genes that control proanthocyanidin biosynthesis, and this information, together with increased knowledge of the enzymes specific for the pathway, will facilitate the genetic engineering of plants for introduction of value-added nutraceutical and forage quality traits.  相似文献

A unified multibranched chlorophyll (Chl) biosynthetic pathway is proposed. The proposed pathway takes into account the following considerations: (a) that the earliest putative precursor of monovinyl Chl b that has been detected in higher plants is monovinyl protochlorophyllide b, (b) that in most cases, Chl b biosynthesis has its roots in the Chl a biosynthetic pathway, (c) that the Chl a biosynthetic pathway exhibits extensive biosynthetic heterogeneity, (d) that Chl biosynthesis may proceed differently at different stages of greening and in different greening groups of plants. Integration of the Chl a and b biosynthetic pathways into a unified multibranched pathway offers the functional flexibility to account for the structural and biosynthetic complexity of photosynthetic membranes. In this context, it is proposed that the unified, multibranched Chl a/b biosynthetic pathway represents the template of a Chl-protein biosynthesis center where photosystem (PS) 1, PS2, and light-harvesting Chl-protein complexes are assembled into functional photosynthetic units. The individual biosynthetic routes or groups of two to three adjacent biosynthetic routes may constitute Chl-protein biosynthesis subcenters, where specific Chl-protein complexes are assembled. This revised version was published online in September 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Enzymes of the biosynthesis of octadecanoid-derived signalling molecules   总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11  
It is known that octadecanoids, i.e. jasmonic acid and related compounds are involved in plant defence reactions against (1) microbial pathogens, (2) herbivores and (3) damage by UV-B or UV-C light as well as (4) senescence and (5) mechanotransduction. Jasmonic acid is likely to occur ubiquitously in the plant kingdom, and it has also been found in some fungi. The pathway of octadecanoid biosynthesis was elucidated in the early 80s by Vick and Zimmerman. This review summarizes recent progress in the identification and characterization of octadecanoid biosynthetic enzymes and in the understanding of the regulation of octadecanoid biosynthesis.  相似文献

Lignin engineering   总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8  
Lignins are aromatic polymers that are present mainly in secondarily thickened plant cell walls. Several decades of research have elucidated the main biosynthetic routes toward the monolignols and demonstrated that lignin amounts can be engineered and that plants can cope with large shifts in p-hydroxyphenyl/guaiacyl/syringyl (H/G/S) lignin compositional ratios. It has also become clear that lignins incorporate many more units than the three monolignols described in biochemistry textbooks. Together with the theory that lignin polymerization is under chemical control, observations hint at opportunities to design lignin structure to the needs of agriculture. An increasing number of examples illustrates that lignin engineering can improve the processing efficiency of plant biomass for pulping, forage digestibility and biofuels. Systems approaches, in which the plant's response to engineering of a single gene in the pathway is studied at the organismal level, are beginning to shed light on the interaction of lignin biosynthesis with other metabolic pathways and processes.  相似文献
