摘要
Jasmonic acid(JA)signaling pathway plays an important role in tanshinone and phenolic acid biosynthesis in Salvia miltiorrhiza.However,the specific regulatory mechanism remains largely unclear.Previous work showed that a JASMONATE ZIM-domain(JAZ)protein,SmJAZ9,acted as a repressor of tanshinone production in S.miltiorrhiza.In this study,we revealed that SmJAZ9 reduced both phenolic acid accumulation and related biosynthetic gene expression,confirming that SmJAZ9 also negatively affected phenolic acid biosynthesis.Then,we identified a novel MYB transcription factor,SmMYB76,which interacted with SmJAZ9.SmMYB76 repressed phenolic acid biosynthesis by directly downregulating SmPAL1,Sm4CL2,and SmRAS1.Further investigation demonstrated that JA mediated phenolic acids biosynthesis via SmJAZ9-SmMYB76 complex.Taken together,these findings state the molecular mechanism that SmJAZ9-SmMYB76 regulated phenolic acid biosynthesis at the transcriptional and protein levels,which provided new insights into JA signaling pathway regulating plant metabolism.
