摘要
【目的】克隆中国野生毛葡萄(Vitis quinquangularis)‘丹凤-2’芪合酶(stilbene synthase)基因(STS)并研究其功能,为提高欧洲葡萄(V. vinifera)的白粉病抗性及品质提供依据。【方法】利用同源克隆法获得中国野生毛葡萄‘丹凤-2’芪合酶基因VqSTS9和VqSTS21,构建植物过表达载体;用无核白单芽茎段诱导出分生愈伤组织,作为农杆菌介导法遗传转化的受体材料,获得抗性植株,经过不同水平检测,确定转基因植株;对野生型和转基因植株叶片人工接种葡萄白粉病菌(Uncinula necator),通过显微技术观察叶片受白粉病菌侵染后的情况,比较两者对白粉病的抗性;利用实时荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)分析野生型和转基因植株在自然条件和接种白粉病菌后STS及其相关基因的表达,用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)检测转基因植株中芪类物质的种类与含量。【结果】同源序列克隆得到VqSTS9(JQ868689)与VqSTS21(JQ868677)的cDNA序列,长度为1 179 bp。经PCR和Western blot检测,鉴定出过表达VqSTS9无核白植株4株和过表达VqSTS21无核白植株3株。显微观察发现,与野生型植株相比,转VqSTS9VqSTS21植株叶片上的菌丝生长较慢,表现出对白粉病的抗性。qRT-PCR结果表明,自然生长条件下,与野生型植株相比,转VqSTS9VqSTS21植株STS的表达量提高,STS上游苯丙氨酸裂解酶基因(PAL)、下游白藜芦醇糖基转移酶基因(RSGT)、转录因子基因(MYB14MYB15)的表达量均不同程度上升,而查尔酮合成酶基因(CHS)表达量降低;人工接种白粉病菌后,与野生型植株相比,转基因植株STS表达量显著上调。高效液相色谱分析表明,自然条件下,芪类物质主要以反式云杉新苷形式存在,转基因植株芪类物质的含量高于野生型植株;在接种白粉病菌诱导表达后,除了反式云杉新苷,还产生了反式白藜芦醇和葡萄素,即转基因植株体内芪类物质的种类和含量均有所增加。【结论】将VqSTS9VqSTS21转入无核白后,转基因植株STS的表达量增高,芪类物质的含量与种类增加,并抑制白粉病菌的生长。因此,中国野生毛葡萄‘丹凤-2’携带的VqSTS9VqSTS21能够增强欧洲葡萄对白粉病的抗性,‘丹凤-2’可用作葡萄抗病性育种的种质资源。

Abstract
【Objective】Two stilbene synthase (STS) genes from Chinese wild Vitis quinquangularis ‘Danfeng-2’ (VqSTS9 and VqSTS21) were cloned and functionally investigated with the aim to provide a theoretical basis for improving the disease-resistance and quality of V. vinifera.【Method】Homologous cloning was applied to obtain VqSTS9 and VqSTS21 and their overexpression vectors under the control of CaMV35 promoter were constructed, respectively. The calluses were induced from single bud segment of V. vinifera cv. ‘Thompson Seedless’, which were used as the receptor materials. The resistant ‘Thompson Seedless’ plants were obtained via Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation. Furthermore, the disease-resistant transgenic plants were determined by different levels of detection. The leaves of wild-type (WT) and transgenic plants were inoculated with Uncinula necator, the pathogenic conditions of leaves infected with U. necator were observed by microscope to compare their resistance. The expressions of STS and other genes in the metabolic pathway of resveratrol synthesis were analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) in WT and transgenic plants under natural conditions and after inoculation with U. necator. The types and contents of stilbenoids in transgenic plants were determined by HPLC.【Result】The cDNA sequences of VqSTS9 (JQ868689) and VqSTS21 (JQ868677) from the Chinese wild V. quinquangular accession ‘Danfeng-2’ were cloned, and both were 1 179 bp in length. Four VqSTS9-overexpressing and three VqSTS21-overexpressing plants were confirmed by PCR and Western blot analysis. These transgenic plants enhanced resistance to powdery mildew and reduced hyphae growth compared with WT plants through observing the growth of U. necator. The qRT-PCR results indicated that VqSTS9 and VqSTS21 transgenic plants increased the expressions of STS, its upstream PAL, the downstream RSGT, and transcription factor genes MYB14, MYB15 under the natural conditions when compared with WT plants. However, the expression of CHS was down-regulated. After inoculation, the expression of STS in transgenic plants was significantly up-regulated compared to WT. HPLC determination demonstrated that the stilbenoids mainly existed as the form of trans-piceid, and its content in transgenic plants was higher than that in WT under natural conditions. After inoculation, the expression of STS was induced, and trans-piceid, trans-resveratrol and viniferin were also produced. Compared with WT plants, the types and contents of stilbenoids in transgenic plants increased.【Conclusion】Overexpression of VqSTS9 and VqSTS21 in ‘Thompson Seedless’ can enhance the expression of STS, increase the types and contents of stilbenoids, and further inhibit the growth of U. necator. Therefore, ‘Danfeng-2’ is an important germplasm resource for disease-resistant breeding and quality improvement of V. vinifera. Stilbene synthase genes VqSTS9 and VqSTS21 can improve resistance to powdery mildew of V. vinifera.

【研究意义】葡萄是世界各地广泛栽培的果树[1]。据世界粮农组织(FAO)2017年数据统计(http:// www.fao.org/home/zh/),全球葡萄种植面积和总产量分别为693.14万公顷、7 427.66万吨。目前,葡萄生产中主栽品种为欧洲葡萄(Vitis vinifera),但该品种抗病能力差,易感白粉病[2],病菌侵染对葡萄产量和质量造成巨大影响[3]。生产上常用化学药剂防治真菌病害,而杀菌剂的使用会增加生产成本,降低果实品质,长期使用还会影响环境[4]。因此,抗病育种是葡萄育种的主要目标之一[5]。利用转基因技术抗病育种,能够避免常规杂交育种出现的杂交不亲和及周期长的缺点。抗病育种需要有抗病种质资源,中国野生毛葡萄‘丹凤-2’(Vitis quinquangularis accession Danfeng-2)不仅抗病性强,并且白藜芦醇(resveratrol)含量高[6]。因此,将‘丹凤-2’中的抗病基因转入欧洲葡萄,提高其抗病性,获得抗病且白藜芦醇含量高的新品种,具有重要的理论和实践意义。【前人研究进展】研究表明,葡萄中的白藜芦醇是其特有的一种植保素[7],不仅可以增强植物抗病性[8],而且果实中的白藜芦醇对人体有抗氧化、抗衰老以及抗癌等作用[9,10,11]。芪合酶(stilbene synthase,STS)是白藜芦醇代谢途径的关键酶。因此,将芪合酶基因(STS)作为提高植物抗病性的目的基因,在葡萄[12]以及其他物种如猕猴桃[13]、苹果[14]、拟南芥[15]、水稻[16]、白杨[17]、苜蓿[18]等进行遗传转化,研究证明转入外源STS的过表达植株对逆境胁迫的抗性增强并且芪类物质积累。笔者所在课题组前期利用转基因技术,获得了过表达VpSTS29的无核白和霞多丽植株[19]、过表达VqSTS6VqSTS26VqSTS32VqSTS12VqSTS25的无核白植株,人工接种葡萄白粉病菌(Uncinula necator)后发现,转基因植株芪类物质含量和种类增加,并且对白粉病的抗性也有所增强[12,20-21]。【本研究切入点】以中国野生毛葡萄‘丹凤-2’在成熟果实中表达较高的VqSTS9和在幼叶中表达较高的VqSTS21为目的基因,构建植物过表达载体,用农杆菌介导法转入欧洲葡萄无核白(Vitis vinifera cv. Thompson Seedless),研究基因表达特性以及抗病功能。【拟解决的关键问题】以无核白的分生愈伤组织为受体材料,通过农杆菌介导法获得过表达VqSTS9VqSTS21的无核白植株,比较过表达植株在接菌前后STS表达水平及芪类物质含量和种类的差异,研究STS的表达特性以及抗病功能,为葡萄抗病育种提供参考。

2.6.2 白粉病菌诱导下转基因植株STS的表达与产物分析 对转基因植株与野生型植株接种白粉病菌,通过qRT-PCR分析接菌前后STS表达量的变化(图7-A、7-B)。结果表明在白粉病菌诱导后,STS响应其诱导表达上调,转基因植株中STS表达量显著升高,且与同时期的野生型植株相比始终保持较高水平。在OEVqSTS9-L1和OEVqSTS9-L2株系中,STS相对表达量分别在接菌后3 d和4 d达到峰值,是同时期野生型表达量的15.8倍与13.8倍;在OEVqSTS21-L2和OEVqSTS21-L3株系中,STS相对表达量分别在接菌后5 d和3 d达到峰值,是同时期野生型表达量的18.6倍与45.8倍。

3 讨论

要解决欧洲葡萄不抗病的问题,需要培育抗病品种,而抗病育种中抗病种质资源尤为关键。早期,研究者试图从欧洲葡萄品种中寻找抗病物质。1976、1979年,LANGCAKE等相继鉴定出葡萄中的白藜芦醇及衍生物[26,27];1984年,SCH?PPNER等首次分离与纯化了合成白藜芦醇的关键酶芪合酶[28]。关于葡萄转芪合酶基因,最早研究是在1990年,转花生STS的烟草原生质体在紫外灯诱导下检测到白藜芦醇[29];研究表明,白藜芦醇不仅作为植保素具有抗病性,还具有生物学保健功能如抗癌、抗氧化、抗衰老等[8,9,10]。而芪合酶是白藜芦醇合成途径中的关键酶,可以响应并提高植物的抗病性[30]。因此,转芪合酶基因到其他植物成了研究的热点与重要领域,作为转基因受体的如番茄[31]、豌豆[32]、油菜[33]、大麦[34]、小麦[35]、葡萄[12]、番木瓜[36]等。笔者所在课题组前期也获得过表达STS的无核白植株[12,20-21]。研究证明转入外源STS,过表达植株对逆境胁迫的耐性增强并且使芪类物质积累。葡萄已被作为转基因STS及其产物白藜芦醇研究的模式植物,被广泛地用作抗性候选基因研究。将葡萄中STS作为改良植物抗性能力的目的基因,利用转基因技术在葡萄植物种内以及其他物种间进行遗传转化,从而提高植株抗病性。

有研究表明,在植物体内,芪类物质有白藜芦醇、云杉新苷、葡萄素和紫檀芪[37],这些衍生物具有与白藜芦醇相似的作用[38],如葡萄素等能抑制霜霉菌菌丝生长[39]。本研究中,随着接种时间的增长,转STS植株芪类物质的量和种类均有所增加,特别是葡萄素的积累,说明转入的基因与获得的转基因植株具有抗病性。这与笔者课题组前期研究结果一致[12,40]

在植物体内,通过苯丙氨酸代谢途径合成白藜芦醇[41]。合成包括一系列的酶反应,其中芪类化合物合成的关键酶是STS,它能够催化香豆酰-CoA和丙二酰-CoA合成白藜芦醇[42]。本研究通过qRT-PCR技术对转基因植株中与白藜芦醇合成相关的转录因子基因(MYB14MYB15)、STS、苯丙氨酸解氨酶基因(PAL)、白藜芦醇糖基转移酶基因(RSGT)和查尔酮合成酶基因(CHS)进行了表达分析。结果表明在转基因株系中,在携带CaMV35S启动子植物表达载体增强基因表达情况下,与野生型相比,STS不同程度地表达上调,这与CHENG等[12]研究结果一致。CaMV35S属于组成型启动子,其整合到双子叶植物基因组后,能够启动在不同器官、发育时期外源基因高强度的表达,但其活性在单子叶植物中受到限制[43]。PAL作为苯丙氨酸代谢途径中的第一个关键酶,能够催化合成香豆酸辅酶A,在转VqSTS21的植株中表达上调,可能是由于STS表达上调增加了对香豆酸辅酶A的消耗。转基因植株中RSGT表达上调,其可催化白藜芦醇糖基化,转化为云杉新苷,由于STS表达上调使得白藜芦醇合成增加,导致RSGT表达上调。CHSSTS有共同的前体底物香豆酰辅酶A,转基因植株中CHS表达下调,可能是因为两者存在底物竞争关系[44]。H?LL等[45]研究发现,MYB14MYB15能够正调控芪类物质的合成。本研究中,MYB14MYB15不同程度地上调。因此,过表达VqSTS9VqSTS21不仅提高了转基因植株STS的表达,还引起白藜芦醇合成途径中其他酶基因(PALRSGT)和相关转录因子基因(MYB14MYB15)的上调表达,从而促进芪类物质的积累。

转基因技术是一种的重要分子育种手段,在葡萄中已有转化成功的例子。一般葡萄用于遗传转化的受体材料主要包括通过体细胞胚发生途径诱导的胚性愈伤组织和器官发生途径诱导的分生愈伤组织。胚性愈伤组织起源于单细胞,可避免嵌合体的形成,但其诱导时间较长,诱导率低,受季节影响,使得转基因效率较低;而器官再生是由多个细胞共同发育分化形成的,在遗传转化时会有嵌合体形成但其诱导时间短,再生成苗率高,受季节影响较小[46]。本研究基于课题组前期遗传转化体系进行。通过构建携带目的基因的植物过表达载体,转入欧洲葡萄无核白中,获得抗性植株。转基因定向改良性状是今后精准育种的重要途径之一,但葡萄遗传转化效率受多方面因素的影响,包括基因型、受体材料(类型、状态)、侵染菌液浓度、共培养时间、抗生素筛选浓度等。因此,优化遗传转化体系与提高遗传转化效率是今后葡萄转基因定向改良目标性状的瓶颈技术问题。

4 结论

中国野生毛葡萄‘丹凤-2’芪合酶基因VqSTS9VqSTS21具有抗白粉病的功能,将VqSTS9VqSTS21利用农杆菌转入欧洲葡萄无核白中,芪合酶基因表达产物种类与含量积累增加,表现出转基因植株对白病菌的抗性。因此,中国野生葡萄毛葡萄‘丹凤-2’是进行抗病育种的重要种质资源,VqSTS9VqSTS21是重要的抗病基因资源,可进一步用作杂交亲本与欧洲葡萄品种杂交改进欧洲葡萄品种抗病性。

The most economically important disease of cultivated grapevines worldwide is powdery mildew (PM) caused by the ascomycete fungus Erysiphe necator. The majority of grapevine cultivars used for wine, table grape, and dried fruit production are derived from the Eurasian grape species Vitis vinifera because of its superior aroma and flavor characteristics. However, this species has little genetic resistance against E. necator meaning that grape production is highly dependent on the frequent use of fungicides. The integration of effective genetic resistance into cultivated grapevines would lead to significant financial and environmental benefits and represents a major challenge for viticultural industries and researchers worldwide. This review will outline the strategies being used to increase our understanding of the molecular basis of V. vinifera susceptibility to this fungal pathogen. It will summarize our current knowledge of different resistance loci/genes that have evolved in wild grapevine species to restrict PM infection and assess the potential application of these defense genes in the generation of PM-resistant grapevine germplasm. Finally, it addresses future research priorities which will be important in the rapid identification, evaluation, and deployment of new PM resistance genes which are capable of conferring effective and durable resistance in the vineyard.

Although phytoalexins have long been inferred to be important in the defence of plants against fungal infection, there are few reports showing that they provide resistance to infection. Several plants, including grapevine, synthesize the stilbene-type phytoalexin resveratrol when attacked by pathogens. Stilbenes with fungicidal potential are formed in several unrelated plant species, such as peanut (Arachis hypogaea), grapevine (Vitis vinifera) and pine (Pinus sylvestris). Stilbene biosynthesis only specifically requires the presence of stilbene synthase. Furthermore, the precursor molecules for the formation of hydroxy-stilbenes are malonyl-CoA and p-coumaroyl-CoA, both present in plants. To investigate the potential of stilbene biosynthetic genes in a strategy of engineering pathogen resistance, we isolated stilbene synthase genes from grapevine, where they are expressed at a high level, and transferred them into tobacco. We report here that regenerated tobacco plants containing these genes are more resistant to infection by Botrytis cinerea. This is, to our knowledge, the first report of increased disease resistance in transgenic plants based on an additional foreign phytoalexin.

Resveratrol, a constituent of red wine, has long been suspected to have cardioprotective effects. Interest in this compound has been renewed in recent years, first from its identification as a chemopreventive agent for skin cancer, and subsequently from reports that it activates sirtuin deacetylases and extends the lifespans of lower organisms. Despite scepticism concerning its bioavailability, a growing body of in vivo evidence indicates that resveratrol has protective effects in rodent models of stress and disease. Here, we provide a comprehensive and critical review of the in vivo data on resveratrol, and consider its potential as a therapeutic for humans.

Natural stilbenes are an important group of nonflavonoid phytochemicals of polyphenolic structure characterized by the presence of a 1,2-diphenylethylene nucleus. Stilbenes have an extraordinary potential for the prevention and treatment of different diseases, including cancer, due to their antioxidant, cell death activation, and anti-inflammatory properties which associate with low toxicity under in vivo conditions. This review aims to discuss various approaches related to their mechanisms of action, pharmacological activities in animal models and humans, and potential chemoprevention in clinical studies. The biological activity of natural stilbenes is still incompletely understood. Furthermore, after administration to animals or humans, these molecules are rapidly metabolized. Thus pharmacokinetics and/or activities of the natural structures and their metabolites may be very different. Novel drug formulations have been postulated in order to improve stability and bioavailability, to minimize side effects, and to facilitate interaction with their domains in target proteins. These pharmacological improvements should lead stilbenes to become effective candidates as anticancer drugs.

MAIN CONCLUSION: The stilbene synthase gene VqSTS6, from Chinese wild type Vitis quinquangularis accession Danfeng-2, increases the resveratrol content and pathogen resistance of transgenic plants of V. vinifera Thompson Seedless. This study successfully created transgenic plants of V. vinifera Thompson Seedless which overexpressed VqSTS6, cloned from Chinese wild type V. quinquangularis accession Danfeng-2. Western blot and qRT-PCR showed a variable range in transcript levels among transgenic lines. The resistance to powdery mildew (Uncinula necator) was particularly enhanced in lines most highly expressing VqSTS6. Compared with the non-transformed controls, trans-resveratrol and other stilbene compounds were significantly increased in the transgenic lines. The correlation between high resveratrol content and high pathogen resistance in transgenic grapes is discussed. We hypothesize that the fruit-specific, highly expressed gene VqSTS6 from Chinese wild V. quinquangularis accession Danfeng-2, is directly involved in the resveratrol synthesis pathway in grapes, and plays an important role in the plant's defense against pathogens. Genetic transformation of VqSTS6 explored the potential of the wild Chinese grape species for use in breeding, the results of which would raise both the disease resistance and the fruit quality of V. vinifera grapevines.

A stilbene synthase gene was isolated from three Vitis spp. (V. vinifera, V. labrusca and V. riparia). These genes were placed under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter and introduced into kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa) plants by Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer. The introduced gene(s) were expressed and piceid (resveratrol-glucoside) rather than resveratrol was produced in the leaves of the transformants. Resveratrol produced by the action of the integrated gene(s) seems to be metabolized into piceid by an endogenous glycosyltransferase. Among the transformants obtained, the highest piceid content in the young leaves was 182 mug/g fresh weight. Although these transformants did not show resistance against Botrytis cinerea, which causes gray-mould disease, the fruits may have some beneficial effects on human health.

A stilbene synthase gene along with the selectable marker gene bar for herbicide resistance was transferred via Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation into apple (Malus domesticaBorkh.) cvs. 'Elstar' and 'Holsteiner Cox'. The stilbene synthase catalyzes the conversion of 1 molecule of p-coumaroyl-CoA and 3 molecules of malonyl-CoA into 3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene, commonly known as resveratrol. This phytoalexin has implications in both phytopathology and human health. Greenhouse-grown transgenic and nontransformed control plants were grafted onto dwarfing rootstock M27. Flowering and fruiting occurred within the following years, offering the opportunity to analyze transgenic apple fruit and fertility of transgenic plants as well as inheritance of the transgenes into the seedling progeny. Molecular analysis revealed that the stilbene synthase is expressed in transgenic plants and in the skin and flesh of transgenic apple fruit. After formation, resveratrol is modified by the addition of a hexose sugar. The resulting component was characterized as piceid. With the aim of characterizing the influence of the novel biosynthetic pathway on the accumulation of other phenolic compounds naturally present in apple fruit, the amounts of flavanols, flavonols, phloretin derivatives and hydroxycinnamic acids in wild type and transgenic fruit were determined by HPLC. In all investigated transformed lines that accumulated piceid, no negative correlation between levels of piceid and the above-mentioned compounds was observed, except for the flavonol contents, which slightly decreased. Inheritance of the transgenes was confirmed in the seedling progeny, which were obtained after pollination of transgenic plants with nontransgenic pollen and vice versa after pollination of nontransgenic plants with pollen obtained from transgenic plants. The fertility of stilbene synthase transgenic plants was demonstrated. To the authors' knowledge this is the first time that data are available on piceid synthesis in transgenic apple fruit and the effects of its accumulation on levels of other phenolic compounds present in the fruit.

Sorghum SbSTS1 was the first example of a stilbene synthase gene in monocots. Previously, we demonstrated that the gene was involved in defense responses. To examine its biochemical function in planta, SbSTS1 was overexpressed in transgenic Arabidopsis. Metabolite analysis revealed that cis-resveratrol glucoside (piceid) accumulated as the major stilbene in the transgenic lines. Using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in selected reaction monitoring mode, up to 580 microg g(-1) FW of cis-piceid were detected in 2-week-old plants, which represent a convenient source of the cis-isomers for pharmacological investigations. Our results also suggested the presence of unknown stilbene isomerase activities in Arabidopsis.

Resveratrol has been clinically shown to possess a number of human health benefits. As a result, many attempts have been made to engineer resveratrol production in major cereal grains but have been largely unsuccessful. In this study, we report the creation of a transgenic rice plant that accumulates 1.9 microg resveratrol/g in its grain, surpassing the previously reported anti-metabolic syndrome activity of resveratrol through a synergistic interaction between the transgenic resveratrol and the endogenous properties of the rice. Consumption of our transgenic resveratrol-enriched rice significantly improved all aspects of metabolic syndrome and related diseases in animals fed a high-fat diet. Compared with the control animals, the resveratrol-enriched rice reduced body weight, blood glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, and LDL-cholesterol by 24.7%, 22%, 37.4%, 27%, and 59.6%, respectively. The resveratrol-enriched rice from our study may thus provide a safe and convenient means of preventing metabolic syndrome and related diseases without major lifestyle changes or the need for daily medications. These results also suggest that future transgenic plants could be improved if the synergistic interactions of the transgene with endogenous traits of the plant are considered in the experimental design.

When present, stilbene synthase leads to the production of resveratrol compounds, which are major components of the phytoalexin response against fungal pathogens of the plant and are highly bioactive substances of pharmaceutical interest. White poplar (Populus alba L.) was transformed with a construct containing a cDNA insert encoding stilbene synthase from grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), under the control of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter, and a chimeric kanamycin resistance gene. Southern blot hybridization analysis demonstrated the presence and integration of exogenous DNA sequences in the poplar genome. Expression of the stilbene synthase-encoding gene in different transgenic lines was confirmed by Western blot and Northern analyses. Compared to the controls, in the transgenic plants two new compounds were detected and were identified as the trans- and cis-isomers of resveratrol-3-glucoside (piceid) by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), UV spectrophotometry, electrospray mass spectrometry (HPLC-ESI-MS) and enzymatic hydrolysis. Since poplar is a good biomass producer and piceids are accumulated in substantial amounts (up to 615.2 microg/g leaf fresh weight), the transgenic plants represent a potential alternative source for the production of these compounds with high pharmacological value. Despite the presence of piceid, in our experimental conditions no increased resistance against the pathogen Melampsora pulcherrima, which causes rust disease, was observed when in vitro bioassays were performed.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) was transformed with a peanut (Arachis hypogaea) cDNA encoding resveratrol synthase (RS) transcriptionally regulated by an enhanced Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter. Transgenic plants accumulated a new compound, not present in wild-type or vector-transformed alfalfa, that was identified as trans-resveratrol-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (RGluc) by high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC), UV, 1H- and 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyses. RGluc concentration was highest in the youngest leaves (>15 microg per g fresh weight) and oldest stem internode segments (>10 microg per g fresh weight) while roots contained only trace amounts (<0.2 microg per g fresh weight). RS transcript levels were highest in leaves and stems, with comparatively little transcript accumulation in the roots, while an inverse pattern was observed for chalcone synthase (CHS) transcript levels. CHS directly competes with RS for the metabolic precursors p-coumaroyl CoA and malonyl CoA, and may also contribute to the developmental variations in RGluc levels by limiting the availability of substrates. Agar-plate bioassays indicated that both RGluc and resveratrol greatly inhibit hyphal growth of the alfalfa fungal pathogen Phoma medicaginis. Subsequently, RGluc-containing leaves were wound inoculated and showed a significant reduction (relative to control leaves) in the size of necrotic lesions, intensity of adjacent chlorosis, and number of fungal reproductive structures (pycnidia). Decreasing sporulation of this pathogen may greatly reduce disease spread and severity throughout the field.

Resveratrol is positively correlated with grapevine disease resistance and its consumption is also highly beneficial to human health. HPLC analyses showed that resveratrol content was significantly higher in most wild Chinese grapevines than in most European Vitis vinifera grapevine cvs. Fruit of the wild Chinese genotype Vitis quinquangularis Danfeng-2 contains much higher levels of resveratrol than some others. Because stilbene synthase is responsible for resveratrol biosynthesis, 41 full-length stilbene synthase genes were isolated from Danfeng-2 using the RACE method. A neighbor-joining tree of the STS family displayed high similarity between Danfeng-2 and V. vinifera cv. Pinot Noir. The content of the endogenous stilbene synthase family in tissues and the expression levels induced by powdery mildew were both higher in Danfeng-2 than in Pinot Noir. Moreover, expression in the berry was significantly higher than in the leaves. Our results demonstrated that resveratrol accumulation was consistent with endogenous STS gene expressions, and that both were higher in Danfeng-2 than in Pinot Noir. Therefore, STS genes and producing resveratrol from V. quinquangularis played more important role in Vitis resistance. Otherwise, the gene VqSTS6 was markedly higher than the other VqSTS genes in the six tissues/organs assayed by Real-time PCR, which will offer a useful basis for commercial application of resveratrol from Chinese wild grapes.

Stilbene synthase ( resveratrol -forming) converts one molecule of rho- coumaroyl -CoA and three molecules of malonyl-CoA into 3,4',5- trihydroxystilbene . Following selective induction of stilbene synthesis in cell suspension cultures of peanut (Arachis hypogaea), the enzyme was extracted and purified to apparent homogeneity by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and hydroxylapatite. The enzyme was found to be a dimer of estimated Mr = 90,000 exhibiting under denaturing conditions a subunit Mr of approximately 45,000. The isoelectric point was determined with pI = 4.8. The enzyme's high selectivity towards rho- coumaroyl -CoA (Km = 2 microM) as substrate qualified it as resveratrol -forming stilbene synthase. Structurally related CoA esters, e.g. dihydro-rho- coumaroyl -CoA and cinnamoyl-CoA, were converted less than 1/10 as efficiently as rho- coumaroyl -CoA. Malonyl-CoA (Km = 10 microM) could not be substituted by acetyl-CoA. The purified enzyme was free of chalcone synthase activity. Antibodies raised against stilbene synthase were shown to be monospecific and not to cross-react with chalcone synthase.

A gene from groundnut (Arachis hypogaea) coding for stilbene synthase was transferred together with a chimaeric kanamycin resistance gene. It was found to be rapidly expressed after induction with UV light and elicitor in tobacco cells (Nicotiana tabacum). Comparative studies of stilbene synthase mRNA synthesis in groundnut and transgenic tobacco suspension cultures revealed the same kinetics of gene expression. Stilbene synthase specific mRNA was detectable 30 minutes after elicitor induction and 10 minutes after UV irradiation. The maximum of mRNA accumulation was between 2 and 8 hours post induction. 24 hours after induction stilbene synthase mRNA accumulation ceased. Furthermore, in transgenic tobacco plants, the gene was found to be inducible in sterile roots, stems and leaves. Stilbene synthase was demonstrated in crude protein extracts from transgenic tobacco cell cultures using specific antibodies. Resveratrol, the product of stilbene synthase, was identified by HPLC and antisera raised against resveratrol.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) tissues were transformed with a grape (Vitis vinifera L.) stilbene synthase cDNA, transcriptionally regulated by the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter. Transgenic plants accumulated new compounds, not present in either wild-type or vector-transformed plants. These were identified, by high-pressure liquid chromatography, as trans-resveratrol and trans-resveratrol-glucopyranoside. The amounts of trans-resveratrol and its piceid form were evaluated in the transgenic fruit. It was found that the content of the metabolite varied during fruit maturation to up to 53 microg/g fresh weight of total trans-resveratrol at the red stage of ripening. This metabolite accumulation was possibly dependent on a combination of sufficiently high levels of stilbene synthase and the availability of substrates. With the aim of verifing the metabolic impairment, the amounts of chlorogenic acid and naringenin in both transgenic and wild-type ripening fruit were compared and no dramatic variation in the synthesis profile of the two metabolites was noted. To our knowledge, no data are available on the assessment of the effects of the expression of the StSy gene on other antioxidant compounds present in tomato fruit. To establish whether the presence of a novel antioxidant molecule affected the redox regulation in transgenic tomato fruit cells, the effect of resveratrol accumulation on the naturally present antioxidant pool was analysed. We showed that, in transgenic fruit which accumulate trans-resveratrol, there is an increase in the levels of ascorbate and glutathione, the soluble antioxidants of primary metabolism, as well as in the total antioxidant activity. Conversely, the content of tocopherol and lycopene, which are membrane-located antioxidants, is not affected. Consistent with the increased antioxidant properties, the lipid peroxidation was lower in transformed than in wild-type fruit.

The phytoalexin resveratrol (trans-3,5,4'-trihydroxy-stilbene), a natural component of resistance to fungal diseases in many plants, is synthesized by the enzyme trihydroxystilbene synthase (stilbene synthase, EC 2.3.1.95), which appears to be deficient or lacking in susceptible plants. Earlier workers isolated a stilbene synthase gene (Vst1) from grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.), which has subsequently been introduced as a transgene into a range of species to increase resistance of hosts to pathogens to which they were originally susceptible. Papaya (Carica papaya L.) is susceptible to a variety of fungal diseases, including root, stem, and fruit rot caused by the pathogen Phytophthora palmivora. Since resveratrol at 1.0 mM inhibited mycelium growth of P. palmivora in vitro, we hypothesized that papaya resistance to this pathogen might be increased by transformation with the grapevine stilbene synthase construct pVst1, containing the Vst1 gene and its pathogen-inducible promoter. Multiple transformed lines were produced, clonally propagated, and evaluated with a leaf disk bioassay and whole plant response to inoculation with P. palmivora. RNA transcripts of stilbene synthase and resveratrol glycoside were induced in plant lines transformed with the grapevine pVst1 construct shortly after pathogen inoculation, and the transformed papaya lines exhibited increased resistance to P. palmivora. The immature transformed plants appear normal and will be advanced to field trials to evaluate their utility.

Here we report the effect of the 35S promoter sequence on activities of the tissue- and organ-specific gene promoters in tobacco plants. In the absence of the 35S promoter sequence the AAP2 promoter is active only in vascular tissues as indicated by expression of the AAP2:GUS gene. With the 35S promoter sequence in the same T-plasmid, transgenic plants exhibit twofold to fivefold increase in AAP2 promoter activity and the promoter becomes active in all tissue types. Transgenic plants hosting the ovary-specific AGL5:iaaM gene (iaaM coding an auxin biosynthetic gene) showed a wild-type phenotype except production of seedless fruits, whereas plants hosting the AGL5:iaaM gene along with the 35S promoter sequence showed drastic morphological alterations. RT-PCR analysis confirms that the phenotype was caused by activation of the AGL5:iaaM gene in non-ovary organs including roots, stems and flowers. When the pollen-, ovule- and early embryo-specific PAB5:barnase gene (barnase coding a RNase gene) was transformed, the presence of 35S promoter sequence drastically reduced transformation efficiencies. However, the transformation efficiencies were restored in the absence of 35S promoter, indicating that the 35S promoter might activate the expression of PAB5:barnase in non-reproductive organs such as calli and shoot primordia. Furthermore, if the 35S promoter sequence was replaced with the NOS promoter sequence, no alteration in AAP2, AGL5 or PAB5 promoter activities was observed. Our results demonstrate that the 35S promoter sequence can convert an adjacent tissue- and organ-specific gene promoter into a globally active promoter.

As a major component of plant specialized metabolism, phenylpropanoid biosynthetic pathways provide anthocyanins for pigmentation, flavonoids such as flavones for protection against UV photodamage, various flavonoid and isoflavonoid inducers of Rhizobium nodulation genes, polymeric lignin for structural support and assorted antimicrobial phytoalexins. As constituents of plant-rich diets and an assortment of herbal medicinal agents, the phenylpropanoids exhibit measurable cancer chemopreventive, antimitotic, estrogenic, antimalarial, antioxidant and antiasthmatic activities. The health benefits of consuming red wine, which contains significant amounts of 3,4',5-trihydroxystilbene (resveratrol) and other phenylpropanoids, highlight the increasing awareness in the medical community and the public at large as to the potential dietary importance of these plant derived compounds. As recently as a decade ago, little was known about the three-dimensional structure of the enzymes involved in these highly branched biosynthetic pathways. Ten years ago, we initiated X-ray crystallographic analyses of key enzymes of this pathway, complemented by biochemical and enzyme engineering studies. We first investigated chalcone synthase (CHS), the entry point of the flavonoid pathway, and its close relative stilbene synthase (STS). Work soon followed on the O-methyl transferases (OMTs) involved in modifications of chalcone, isoflavonoids and metabolic precursors of lignin. More recently, our groups and others have extended the range of phenylpropanoid pathway structural investigations to include the upstream enzymes responsible for the initial recruitment of phenylalanine and tyrosine, as well as a number of reductases, acyltransferases and ancillary tailoring enzymes of phenylpropanoid-derived metabolites. These structure-function studies collectively provide a comprehensive view of an important aspect of phenylpropanoid metabolism. More specifically, these atomic resolution insights into the architecture and mechanistic underpinnings of phenylpropanoid metabolizing enzymes contribute to our understanding of the emergence and on-going evolution of specialized phenylpropanoid products, and underscore the molecular basis of metabolic biodiversity at the chemical level. Finally, the detailed knowledge of the structure, function and evolution of these enzymes of specialized metabolism provide a set of experimental templates for the enzyme and metabolic engineering of production platforms for diverse novel compounds with desirable dietary and medicinal properties.
