A green callus culture of Croton sublyratus Kurz established from the leaf explants appeared to actively synthesize two well-known phytosterols, beta-sitosterol and stigmasterol. The phytosterol biosynthesis was highly active during the linear phase of the culture. Feeding of [1-13C]glucose into the callus culture at this growth phase showed that the label from glucose was highly incorporated into both phytosterols. Isolation of the labeled products followed by 13C NMR analysis revealed that the phytosterols had their 13C-labeling patterns consistent with the acquisition of isoprene units via both the mevalonate pathway and the deoxyxylulose pathway with relatively equal contribution. Since the biosynthesis of phytosterol has so far been reported to be mainly from the classical mevalonate pathway, this study provides a new evidence on the biosynthesis of phytosterols via the novel deoxyxylulose pathway. 相似文献

The biosynthesis of the triterpene 22-(30)-hopene-29-acid and the diterpenes 7,17-sacculatadiene-11,12-dial (sacculatal), trans-phytol and a new neoverrucosane-type diterpenoid (5-oxo-neoverrucos-(13)-ene) was studied by incorporation of [1-13C]-labelled glucose into axenic cultures of the artic liverwort Fossombronia alaskana. Quantitative 13C NMR spectroscopic analysis of the resulting labelling patterns showed that the isoprene units of the triterpene are derived from the mevalonic acid pathway, whereas the isoprene units of the diterpenes are built up via the methylerythritol phosphate pathway. 相似文献

The incorporation of [1-13C] labelled glucose into hodgsonox, a sesquiterpene epoxide with a unique, doubly allylic ether functionality has been studied in axenic cultures of the liverwort Lepidolaena hodgsoniae. Quantitative 13C NMR spectroscopic analysis showed that the isoprene units are derived exclusively from the methylerythritol phosphate pathway. 相似文献

The incorporation of [1-13C]-labeled glucose into the irregular monoterpene artemisia ketone, the regular monoterpenes camphor and beta-thujone, the sesquiterpene germacrene D, the diterpene trans-phytol and beta-sitosterol and isofucosterol has been studied in axenic cultures of Tanacetum vulgare L. (Asteraceae). Quantitative 13C NMR spectroscopic analysis of the resulting labeling patterns showed that the isoprene units of the monoterpenes and the diterpene are formed via the methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway, whereas the isoprene building blocks of the sesquiterpene and the sterols originate from the mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway. 相似文献

The incorporation of (13)C labeled 1-deoxy-D-xylulose into the monoterpene bornyl acetate, the sesquiterpene cubebanol, and the diterpene phytol has been studied in axenic cultures of the liverwort Conocephalum conicum. Quantitative (13)C NMR spectroscopic analysis of the labeling patterns of the sesquiterpene indicated a possible degradation of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose to acetate and subsequent incorporation via the mevalonic acid pathway. In bornyl acetate, the labeling occurred only in the acetate moiety whereas the isoprene units remained unlabelled. The isoprene units of the diterpene phytol showed incorporation of intact deoxy-D-xylulose. These results indicate the involvement of both IPP biosynthetic pathways and two independently operating compartments/cell types with MEP pathway machinery. One MEP compartment is presumably the plastid where phytol is formed; the second, involved in the build-up of the isoprene part of bornyl acetate, might be located in the oil cells. The acetylation of borneol to bornyl acetate in turn occurs in a cellular compartment that is not involved in the build-up of the isoprene units of borneol. 相似文献

Origin of two isoprenoid units in a lavandulyl moiety of sophoraflavanone G from Sophora flavescens cultured cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cell suspension cultures of Sophora flavescens produced large amounts of sophoraflavanone G, an 8-lavandulylated flavanone and lupalbigenin, a 6,3'-di-dimethylallylated isoflavone, by the simultaneous addition of cork tissues and methyl jasmonate. The labeling pattern of the isoprene units resulting after administration of [1-13C] glucose into the cell cultures in the presence of the above additives revealed that two isoprene units in the lavandulyl group of sophoraflavanone G and two dimethylallyl groups of lupalbigenin were biosynthesized via the 1-deoxy-D-xylulose-5-phosphate pathway. 相似文献

Plant isoprenoids are derived from two biosynthetic pathways, the cytoplasmic mevalonate (MVA) and the plastidial methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway. In this study their respective contributions toward formation of dolichols in Coluria geoides hairy root culture were estimated using in vivo labeling with (13)C-labeled glucose as a general precursor. NMR and mass spectrometry showed that both the MVA and MEP pathways were the sources of isopentenyl diphosphate incorporated into polyisoprenoid chains. The involvement of the MEP pathway was found to be substantial at the initiation stage of dolichol chain synthesis, but it was virtually nil at the terminal steps; statistically, 6-8 isoprene units within the dolichol molecule (i.e. 40-50% of the total) were derived from the MEP pathway. These results were further verified by incorporation of [5-(2)H]mevalonate or [5,5-(2)H(2)]deoxyxylulose into dolichols as well as by the observed decreased accumulation of dolichols upon treatment with mevinolin or fosmidomycin, selective inhibitors of either pathway. The presented data indicate that the synthesis of dolichols in C. geoides roots involves a continuous exchange of intermediates between the MVA and MEP pathways. According to our model, oligoprenyl diphosphate chains of a length not exceeding 13 isoprene units are synthesized in plastids from isopentenyl diphosphate derived from both the MEP and MVA pathways, and then are completed in the cytoplasm with several units derived solely from the MVA pathway. This study also illustrates an innovative application of mass spectrometry for qualitative and quantitative evaluation of the contribution of individual metabolic pathways to the biosynthesis of natural products. 相似文献

Isoprene emitted from plants is made in chloroplasts from dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP). Leaves of Populus nigra and Phragmites australis exposed to (13)CO(2) for 15 min emitted isoprene that was about 90% (13)C, but DMAPP isolated from those leaves was only 28% and 36% (13)C, respectively. The labeled DMAPP is likely to represent chloroplastic DMAPP contributing to isoprene emission. A substantial (13)C labeling was also found in both emission and DMAPP pool of low-emitting, young leaves of Phragmites. This confirms that low emission of young leaves is not caused by absence of chloroplastic DMAPP but rather by enzyme characteristics. A very low (13)C labeling was found in the DMAPP pool and in the residual isoprene emission of leaves previously fed with fosmidomycin to inhibit isoprene formation. This shows that fosmidomycin is a very effective inhibitor of the chloroplastic biosynthetic pathway of isoprene synthesis, that the residual isoprene is formed from extra-chloroplastic sources, and that chloroplastic and extrachloroplastic pathways are not cross-linked, at least following inhibition of the chloroplastic pathway. Refixation of unlabeled respiratory CO(2) in the light may explain incomplete labeling of isoprene emission, as we found a good association between these two parameters. 相似文献

The location of the internal trans and cis isoprene units in ficaprenol-11 isolated from Ficus elastica was determined by 13C nuclear magnetic resonance. The alignment of the isoprene units was estimated to be in the order: omega-terminal unit, three trans units, six cis units and alpha-terminal cis alcohol unit. 相似文献

Feeding tobacco BY-2 cells with [2-13C,4-2H]deoxyxylulose revealed from the 13C labeling that the plastid isoprenoids, synthesized via the MEP pathway, are essentially derived from the labeled precursor. The ca. 15% 2H retention observed in all isoprene units corresponds to the isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP)/dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) ratio (85:15) directly produced by the hydroxymethylbutenyl diphosphate reductase, the last enzyme of the MEP pathway. 2H retention characterizes the isoprene units derived from the DMAPP branch, whereas 2H loss represents the signature of the IPP branch. Taking into account the enantioselectivity of the reactions catalyzed by the (E)-4-hydroxy-3-methylbut-2-enyl diphosphate reductase, the IPP isomerase and the trans-prenyl transferase, a single biogenetic scheme allows to interpret all labeling patterns observed in bacteria or plants upon incubation with 2H labeled deoxyxylulose. 相似文献

This study was performed to test if alternative carbon sources besides recently photosynthetically fixed CO2 are used for isoprene formation in the leaves of young poplar (Populus x canescens) trees. In a 13CO2 atmosphere under steady state conditions, only about 75% of isoprene became 13C labeled within minutes. A considerable part of the unlabeled carbon may be derived from xylem transported carbohydrates, as may be shown by feeding leaves with [U-13C]Glc. As a consequence of this treatment approximately 8% to 10% of the carbon emitted as isoprene was 13C labeled. In order to identify further carbon sources, poplar leaves were depleted of leaf internal carbon pools and the carbon pools were refilled with 13C labeled carbon by exposure to 13CO2. Results from this treatment showed that about 30% of isoprene carbon became 13C labeled, clearly suggesting that, in addition to xylem transported carbon and CO2, leaf internal carbon pools, e.g. starch, are used for isoprene formation. This use was even increased when net assimilation was reduced, for example by abscisic acid application. The data provide clear evidence of a dynamic exchange of carbon between different cellular precursors for isoprene biosynthesis, and an increasing importance of these alternative carbon pools under conditions of limited photosynthesis. Feeding [1,2-13C]Glc and [3-13C]Glc to leaves via the xylem suggested that alternative carbon sources are probably derived from cytosolic pyruvate/phosphoenolpyruvate equivalents and incorporated into isoprene according to the predicted cleavage of the 3-C position of pyruvate during the initial step of the plastidic deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate pathway. 相似文献

Isoprene (2-methyl-1,3-butadiene) is the most abundant biogenic hydrocarbon released from vegetation, and there is continuing interest in understanding its biosynthesis from photosynthetic precursors in leaf chloroplasts. We used on-line proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) to observe the kinetics of (13)C-labeling of isoprene following exposure to (13)CO(2) and then the loss of (13)C after a return to normal (12)CO(2) in oak ( Quercus agrifolia Nee) and cottonwood (Populus deltoides Barr.) leaves. Assignments of labeled isoprene species were verified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. For the first time, it was possible to observe the half-lives of individually (13)C-labeled isoprene species during these transitions, and to trace some of the label to a C3 fragment that contained the two isoprene carbons derived from pyruvate via the deoxyxylulose-5-phosphate (DOXP) pathway. At steady state (under (13)CO(2)), approximately 80% of isoprene carbon was labeled, with fully labeled isoprene as the major species (approx. 60%). The source of the unlabeled C is suggested to be extrachloroplastic, but not from photorespiratory carbon. After a transfer to (12)CO(2), (13)C-labeling persisted in one isoprene carbon for several hours; this persistence was much more pronounced in (i) leaves inhibited by fosmidomycin, a specific inhibitor of the DOXP pathway, and (ii) in sun leaves which have higher ratios of soluble sugars to starch. From the mass 41-44 fragment data, and labeling predicted from the DOXP pathway in chloroplasts, precursors may arise from cytosolic pyruvate/phospho enolpyruvate equivalents transported into the chloroplast; this idea was supported by an indirect measure of pyruvate labeling. Other sources of cytosolic isoprene precursors (i.e. dimethylallyl diphosphate or pentose phosphate) could not be excluded. The data obtained shed light on the half-lives of photosynthetic metabolites, exchanges of carbon between cellular pools, and suggest multiple origins of isoprene precursors in leaves. 相似文献

Incorporation of synthetically prepared 1-[1-(13)C]deoxy-d-xylulose into chamomile sesquiterpenes has been achieved by injecting an aqueous solution into the anthodia of the plant. The analysis of labeling patterns and absolute (13)C abundances of the isolated sesquiterpenes bisabololoxide A (1), bisabololoxide B (2), and chamazulene (3) using quantitative (13)C NMR spectroscopy showed that 1-[1-(13)C]deoxy-d-xylulose was efficiently incorporated in all three isoprene building blocks of the sesquiterpenes. A significantly lower (13)C abundance of the labeled carbon atom in the biogenetically terminal isoprene unit confirms the mixed biosynthesis of this unit, involving both the mevalonic acid pathway and the methylerythritol phosphate pathway. 相似文献

Biogenic isoprene substantially affects atmospheric chemistry, but it is not known how or why many plants, especially trees, make isoprene. We fed 13CO2 to leaves of Quercus rubra and monitored the incorporation of 13C into isoprene by mass spectrometry. After feeding 13CO2 for 9 min we found all possible labelling patterns from completely unlabelled to fully labelled isoprene. By 18 min, 84% of the carbon atoms in isoprene were 13C. Labelling of the last 20% of the carbon atoms was much slower than labelling of the first 80%. The rate of labelling of isoprene was similar to that reported for phosphoglyceric acid indicating that there is a close linkage between the carbon source for isoprene synthesis and the photosynthetic carbon reduction pathway. 相似文献

The biosynthesis of the neurotoxin domoic acid (DA) in the diatom Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries was investigated using 13C- and 14C-labelled precursors. The labelling pattern determined by NMR spectroscopy following incorporation of [1,2-13C2]-acetate showed enrichment of every carbon of DA. The enrichment levels were consistent with a biosynthetic pathway involving two different intermediate precursor units. Addition of labelled acetate either early or late during exponential growth gave similar patterns and levels of incorporation. Analysis of the labelling pattern indicated that DA is biosynthesised by condensation of an isoprenoid intermediate with another intermediate derived from the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. The absence of deuterium at C2 in DA following incorporation of [2-13C, 2H3]-acetate is consistent with alpha-ketoglutarate or a derivative as the TCA cycle-derived intermediate. The different incorporation efficiencies of acetate into the putative precursor intermediates suggest that either each unit is biosynthesized in a different part of the diatom cell, or that the isoprene chain is not assembled by the usual acetate-mevalonate pathway. The latter proposal is supported by the complete absence of deuterium retention in the isoprenoid-derived portion following incorporation of [2-13C, 2H3]-acetate. 相似文献

Biogenically released isoprene plays important roles in both tropospheric photochemistry and plant metabolism. We performed a (13)CO(2)-labeling study using proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) to examine the kinetics of recently assimilated photosynthate into isoprene emitted from poplar (Populus × canescens) trees grown and measured at different atmospheric CO(2) concentrations. This is the first study to explicitly consider the effects of altered atmospheric CO(2) concentration on carbon partitioning to isoprene biosynthesis. We studied changes in the proportion of labeled carbon as a function of time in two mass fragments, M41(+), which represents, in part, substrate derived from pyruvate, and M69(+), which represents the whole unlabeled isoprene molecule. We observed a trend of slower (13)C incorporation into isoprene carbon derived from pyruvate, consistent with the previously hypothesized origin of chloroplastic pyruvate from cytosolic phosphenolpyruvate (PEP). Trees grown under sub-ambient CO(2) (190 ppmv) had rates of isoprene emission and rates of labeling of M41(+) and M69(+) that were nearly twice those observed in trees grown under elevated CO(2) (590 ppmv). However, they also demonstrated the lowest proportion of completely labeled isoprene molecules. These results suggest that under reduced atmospheric CO(2) availability, more carbon from stored/older carbon sources is involved in isoprene biosynthesis, and this carbon most likely enters the isoprene biosynthesis pathway through the pyruvate substrate. We offer direct evidence that extra-chloroplastic rather than chloroplastic carbon sources are mobilized to increase the availability of pyruvate required to up-regulate the isoprene biosynthesis pathway when trees are grown under sub-ambient CO(2). 相似文献

Feeding experiments were independently performed with [1-13C]deoxy-D-xylulose triacetate and (RS)-[2-13C]mevalonolactone in the tobacco plant. The labeling pattern for solanesol was elucidated to reveal that the isoprene moiety of solanesol would be derived from deoxy-xylulose. The result strongly suggests that tobacco solanesol is biosynthesized via the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway. 相似文献

The isoprenoid metabolic pathway in protozoa of the Leishmania genus exhibits distinctive characteristics. These parasites, as well as other members of the Trypanosomatidae family, synthesize ergosterol, instead of cholesterol, as the main membrane sterol lipid. Leishmania has been shown to utilize leucine, instead of acetate as the main precursor for sterol biosynthesis. While mammalian dolichols are molecules containing 15-23 isoprene units, Leishmania amazonensis promastigotes synthesize dolichol of 11 and 12 units. In this paper, we show that the intracellular stages of L. amazonensis, amastigotes, synthesize mainly polyprenols of 9 isoprene units, instead of dolichol. 相似文献

The carbon of the four main monoterpenes emitted by Quercus ilex L. leaves was completely labeled with 13C after a 20-min feeding with 99% 13CO2. This labeling time course is comparable with the labeling time course of isoprene, the terpenoid emitted by other Quercus species and synthesized in leaf chloroplasts. It is also comparable with that of phosphoglyceric acid. Our experiment therefore provides evidence that monoterpenes emitted by Q. ilex are formed from photosynthesis intermediates and may share the same synthetic pathway with isoprene. By analyzing the rate and the distribution of labeling in the different fragments, we looked for evidence of differential carbon labeling in the [alpha]-pinene emitted. However, the labeling pattern was quite uniform in the different fragments, suggesting that the carbon skeleton of the emitted monoterpenes comes from a unique carbon source. 相似文献

The arrangement of isoprene units in pig liver dolichol-18, -19 and -20 was determined by 1H- and 13C-n.m.r. spectroscopies. The alignment of trans and cis isoprene units was found to be in the order: dimethylallyl unit, two trans units, a sequence of 14-16 cis units, and a saturated isoprene unit terminated with a hydroxyl group, which verified the presumed chemical structure of dolichol. The absence of geometric isomers was confirmed. A slight amount of impurity was detected in each reversed-phase h.p.l.c. fraction of dolichol obtained by a conventional method. Detailed assignments of the 13C-n.m.r. spectrum were given for these dolichols by using model compounds and INEPT (insensitive nuclei enhanced by polarization transfer) measurement. The chemical structure of synthetic dolichol-19, which was prepared by the addition of a saturated isoprene unit to the polyprenol-18 isolated from Ginkgo biloba, was confirmed to be identical with that of pig liver dolichol-19. 相似文献
