The process and system led to the identification of prenyltransferase genes from elicitor-treated peanut hairy roots. One of the prenyltransferases, AhR4DT-1 catalyzes a key reaction involved in the biosynthesis of prenylated stilbenoids, in which resveratrol is prenylated at its C-4 position to form arachidin-2, while another, AhR3′DT-1, was able to add the prenyl group to C-3′ of resveratrol. Each of these prenyltransferases has a high specificity for stilbenoid substrates, and their subcellular location in the plastid was confirmed by fluorescence microscopy. Structure analysis of the prenylated stilbenoids suggest that these two prenyltransferase activities represent the first committed steps in the biosynthesis of a large number of prenylated stilbenoids and their derivatives in peanut.
通过这一过程和系统,从诱导剂处理过的花生毛根中鉴定出了前酰转移酶基因。其中一个前酰基转移酶(AhR4DT-1)催化了参与前酰基化二苯乙烯类化合物生物合成的一个关键反应,在该反应中,白藜芦醇在其 C-4 位置被前酰基化,形成花生苷-2;而另一个前酰基转移酶(AhR3′DT-1)能够将前酰基添加到白藜芦醇的 C-3′ 位置。这些前酰基转移酶对白藜芦醇底物都有很高的特异性,荧光显微镜证实了它们在质体中的亚细胞位置。前炔基化二苯乙烯类化合物的结构分析表明,这两种前炔基化转移酶活性代表了花生中大量前炔基化二苯乙烯类化合物及其衍生物生物合成的第一步。
