Combined metabolomic and transcriptomic analysis reveals the key genes for triterpenoid biosynthesis in Cyclocarya paliurus.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Cyclocarya paliurus is a high-value tree, and it contains a variety of bioactive secondary metabolites which have broad application prospects in medicine, food and health care. Triterpenoids can improve the bioactive function of C. paliurus health tea and also improve the efficacy of health care tea.

Results

The results of this study showed that there were 69 kinds were terpenoids, and triterpenoids accounted for more than 80%. We excavated 5 kinds of triterpenoid metabolites with high content and significant difference dynamics, namely, corosolic acid, asiatic acid, maslinic acid, ursolic acid and oleanolic acid. The co-expression analysis identified CYP71D8 and CYP716A15 co-expressed with β-AS may generate oleanane type triterpenoids by modifying β-amyrin, while
