摘要: Objectives Terpenes are important volatile organic compounds that impact fruit aroma and flavor quality. Terpene synthases (TPSs) are the key enzymes responsible for the biosynthesis of basic backbone structure of terpenes. The identification and characterization of TPSs are critical for comprehending the biosynthesis of terpenes in fruit.Materials and Methods The present study utilized cultivated peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) as materials. RNA-sequencing was employed to investigate the expression profiles of PpTPSs during fruit ripening and in response to hormone and temperature treatments. Enzyme activities of PpTPSs were assessed using different substrates.Results Here, we show that peach contains 38 TPS genes, with 24 members in the TPS-a cluster. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the expression of PpTPSs in peach fruits was regulated by environmental factors such as UV-B light and low temperature, as well as by phytohormones such as ethylene and methyl jasmonate. After analyzing the expression of 38 PpTPSs in peach fruit developmental stages and different tissues, we screened and cloned six new highly expressed TPS genes. Subcellular localization showed that PpTPS13 and PpTPS23 were localized in the plastid, whereas PpTPS12, PpTPS22, PpTPS25, and PpTPS28 were localized in the cytoplasm. Heterologous expression of PpTPSs in Escherichia coli followed by the enzymatic assays revealed that only four TPSs (PpTPS12, PpTPS22, PpTPS25, and PpTPS28) were active in vitro. Using GPP and FPP as substrates, these PpTPSs were able to synthesize an array of volatile terpenes, including 15 monoterpenes such as geraniol, camphene, pinene, borneol and phellandrene, and 14 sesquiterpenes such as farnesene, nerolidol and alpha-bergamotene.Conclusions Our results identify target genes for engineering to increase the production of volatile terpenes and thereby improve fruit quality.
