Tema(s): Recursos en línea: Resumen: In plants, phenylalanine biosynthesis occurs via two compartmentally separated pathways. Overexpression of petunia chorismate mutase 2 (PhCM2), which catalyzes the committed step of the cytosolic pathway, increased flux in cytosolic phenylalanine biosynthesis, but paradoxically decreased the overall levels of phenylalanine and phenylalanine-derived volatiles. Concomitantly, the levels of auxins, including indole-3-acetic acid and its precursor indole-3-pyruvic acid, were elevated. Biochemical and genetic analyses revealed the existence of metabolic crosstalk between the cytosolic phenylalanine biosynthesis and tryptophan-dependent auxin biosynthesis mediated by an aminotransferase that uses a cytosolic phenylalanine biosynthetic pathway intermediate, phenylpyruvate, as an amino acceptor for auxin formation.
