| Zusammenfassung: | Copyright © 2014 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved. Cyanotis arachnoidea contains a rich source of bioactive phytoecdysteroids (i.e. analogues of insect steroid hormones). 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) supplies mevalonate for the synthesis of many secondary metabolites including 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), one of metabolism-enhancing phytoecdysteroids. In this study, in order to develop a sustainable source of 20E, cell suspension cultures were established from shoot cultures of C. arachnoidea, and a full length cDNA encoding HMGR (designated as CaHMGR) was cloned and characterized. The cDNA contained 2037 nucleotides with a complete open reading frame (ORF) of 1800 nucleotides, which was predicted to encode a peptide of 599 amino acids. Expression analysis by real-time PCR revealed that CaHMGR mRNA was abundant in C. arachnoidea stems, roots and leaves. When cultivated in Murashige & Skoog medium supplemented with 0.2 mg L(-1) 1-naphthlcetic acid (NAA) and 3.0 mg L(-1) 6-benzyladenine (6-BA), C. arachnoidea cells in suspension culture grew rapidly, yielding 20E (124.14 μg L(-1)) after 12 days. The content of 20E in cell cultures elicited by 0.2 mM methyl jasmonate (MeJA), 100 mg L(-1) yeast elicitor (YE) or 25 μM AgNO3 was increased 8-, 2-, and 6-fold over the control, respectively. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis showed that CaHMGR was expressed at a higher level under the treatment of MeJA or Ag(+) elicitor. Our results suggested that 20E accumulation may be the result of the expression up-regulation of CaHMGR involved in the biosynthesis under the treatment of various elicitors |
