萜类化合物种类繁多,生物活性多样,在食品、药品与化妆品等行业中具有广泛的应用。萜类化合物多来源于植物,然而随着合成生物学的快速发展,相较于传统的天然植物提取与化学合成方法,利用工程微生物进行萜类化合物异源合成的方法显得更为经济与环保。萜类合成酶的催化活性及合成产物的结构特性是萜类化合物异源合成的关键。通过蛋白定向进化与理性设计可以有针对性地优化萜类合成酶的催化性能及产物专一性,但该方案需要一个特异的筛选方法来实现蛋白突变体库的高通量筛选。近年来,一系列高通量筛选方法的建立使得萜类合成酶的筛选变得更加灵敏与高效。本文对近期建立的萜类合成酶高通量筛选方法进行了综述,简要概述了各种筛选方法的基本原理与优缺点,并对高通量筛选技术在萜类合成酶改造中的应用做出了展望。 相似文献

Leaves of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) are covered with glandular trichomes that produce sucrose esters and diterpenoids in varying quantities, depending on cultivar type. The bicyclic diterpene Z‐abienol is the major labdanoid present in some oriental tobacco cultivars, where it constitutes a precursor of important flavours and aromas. We describe here the identification and characterization of two genes governing the biosynthesis of Z‐abienol in N. tabacum. As for other angiosperm labdanoid diterpenes, the biosynthesis of Z‐abienol proceeds in two steps. NtCPS2 encodes a class‐II terpene synthase that synthesizes 8‐hydroxy‐copalyl diphosphate, and NtABS encodes a kaurene synthase‐like (KSL) protein that uses 8‐hydroxy‐copalyl diphosphate to produce Z‐abienol. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that NtABS belongs to a distinct clade of KSL proteins that comprises the recently identified tomato (Solanum habrochaites) santalene and bergamotene synthase. RT‐PCR results show that both genes are preferentially expressed in trichomes. Moreover, microscopy of NtCPS2 promoter‐GUS fusion transgenics demonstrated a high specificity of expression to trichome glandular cells. Ectopic expression of both genes, but not of either one alone, driven by a trichome‐specific promoter in transgenic Nicotiana sylvestris conferred Z‐abienol formation to this species, which does not normally produce it. Furthermore, sequence analysis of over 100 tobacco cultivars revealed polymorphisms in NtCPS2 that lead to a prematurely truncated protein in cultivars lacking Z‐abienol, thus establishing NtCPS2 as a major gene controlling Z‐abienol biosynthesis in tobacco. These results offer new perspectives for tobacco breeding and the metabolic engineering of labdanoid diterpenes, as well as for structure–function relationship studies of terpene synthases. 相似文献

Trichome-based host plant resistance is a complex mechanism that could be used in tomato breeding to control arthropod pests.
The aims of this work were to evaluate the plant traits (density of trichomes and acylsucrose production) and the functional
relationships of these traits with mortality, repellence, and oviposition of Tetranychus urticae Koch (Acari: Tetranychidae). We used a population of recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from the cross between the wild
tomato, Solanum pimpinellifolium L. ‘TO-937’, and the cultivated tomato, Solanum lycopersicum L. Multiple regression analyses showed that high acylsucrose content and high type-IV trichome density increased mortality
and repellence, and reduced oviposition of T. urticae. Single regression analyses showed that a logistic model best explained the relationship between mortality or repellence
and acylsucrose content, whereas a negative-exponential model best described the relationship between oviposition and acylsucrose
content. Linear models were the best-fits for the three resistance variables with trichome IV density. Probit analysis was
used to estimate acylsucrose effective doses, and revealed that 31 and 10% of the RILs produced acylsucrose above the effective
doses for 90% mortality or repellence, respectively. Altogether, these results indicate that S. pimpinellifolium may be a suitable genetic source of resistance to spider mites to be used in cultivated tomato. 相似文献

The 2–oxoglutarate‐dependent dioxygenase (2OGD) superfamily is the second largest enzyme family in the plant genome, and its members are involved in various oxygenation/hydroxylation reactions. Despite their biochemical significance in metabolism, a systematic analysis of plant 2OGDs remains to be accomplished. We present a phylogenetic classification of 479 2OGDs in six plant models, ranging from green algae to angiosperms. These were classified into three classes – DOXA, DOXB and DOXC – based on amino acid sequence similarity. The DOXA class includes plant homologs of Escherichia coli AlkB, which is a prototype of 2OGD involved in the oxidative demethylation of alkylated nucleic acids and histones. The DOXB class is conserved across all plant taxa and is involved in proline 4–hydroxylation in cell wall protein synthesis. The DOXC class is involved in specialized metabolism of various phytochemicals, including phytohormones and flavonoids. The vast majority of 2OGDs from land plants were classified into the DOXC class, but only seven from Chlamydomonas, suggesting that this class has diversified during land plant evolution. Phylogenetic analysis assigned DOXC‐class 2OGDs to 57 phylogenetic clades. 2OGD genes involved in gibberellin biosynthesis were conserved among vascular plants, and those involved in flavonoid and ethylene biosynthesis were shared among seed plants. Several angiosperm‐specific clades were found to be involved in various lineage‐specific specialized metabolisms, but 31 of the 57 DOXC‐class clades were only found in a single species. Therefore, the evolution and diversification of DOXC‐class 2OGDs is partly responsible for the diversity and complexity of specialized metabolites in land plants. 相似文献
