Phyllotreta striolata flea beetles use host plant defense compounds to create their own glucosinolate-myrosinase system.
The ability of a specialized herbivore to overcome the chemical defense of a particular plant taxon not only makes it accessible as a food source but may also provide metabolites to be exploited for communication or chemical defense. Phyllotreta flea beetles are adapted to crucifer plants (Brassicales) that are defended by the glucosinolate-myrosinase system, the so-called "mustard-oil bomb." T...
متن کاملGlucosinolate and amino acid biosynthesis in Arabidopsis.
Enzymes that catalyze the condensation of acetyl coenzyme A and 2-oxo acids are likely to be important in two distinct metabolic pathways in Arabidopsis. These are the synthesis of isopropylmalate, an intermediate of Leu biosynthesis in primary metabolism, and the synthesis of methylthioalkylmalates, intermediates of Met elongation in the synthesis of aliphatic glucosinolates (GSLs), in seconda...
متن کاملArabidopsis IQD1, a novel calmodulin-binding nuclear protein, stimulates glucosinolate accumulation and plant defense.
Glucosinolates are a class of secondary metabolites with important roles in plant defense and human nutrition. To uncover regulatory mechanisms of glucosinolate production, we screened Arabidopsis thaliana T-DNA activation-tagged lines and identified a high-glucosinolate mutant caused by overexpression of IQD1 (At3g09710). A series of gain- and loss-of-function IQD1 alleles in different accessi...
متن کاملA glucosinolate metabolism pathway in living plant cells mediates broad-spectrum antifungal defense.
Selection pressure exerted by insects and microorganisms shapes the diversity of plant secondary metabolites. We identified a metabolic pathway for glucosinolates, known insect deterrents, that differs from the pathway activated by chewing insects. This pathway is active in living plant cells, may contribute to glucosinolate turnover, and has been recruited for broad-spectrum antifungal defense...
متن کاملThe Defense Metabolite, Allyl Glucosinolate, Modulates Arabidopsis thaliana Biomass Dependent upon the Endogenous Glucosinolate Pathway
Glucosinolates (GSLs) play an important role in plants as direct mediators of biotic and abiotic stress responses. Recent work is beginning to show that the GSLs can also inducing complex defense and growth networks. However, the physiological significance of these GSL-induced responses and the molecular mechanisms by which GSLs are sensed and/or modulate these responses are not understood. To ...
