环烯醚萜类成分生物合成途径及关键酶基因研究进展

Progress of Biosynthetic Pathway and the Key Enzyme Genes of Iridoids

环烯醚萜类化合物是广泛存在于双子叶植物中的一类化合物,具有广泛的生物活性,如神经保护、抗肿瘤、抗氧化、抗炎等作用。文章对药用植物环烯醚萜类化合物生物合成途径及三个可能的关键酶基因的研究进展进行综述,以期为进一步解析环烯醚萜生物合成途径以及挖掘功能基因奠定基础。

Iridoids are a class of compounds widely found in dicotyledonous plants, which have a wide range of biological activities, such as neuroprotection, anti -tumor, antioxidant, anti -inflammatory and other effects. In this paper, the biosynthetic pathway of iridoids in medicinal plants and three key enzyme genes were reviewed. In order to lay the foundation for further analysis of iridoid biosynthesis pathway and the establishment of functional genes.
