El-Sharkawy I, Manriquez D, Flores FB, Regad F, Bouzayen M, Latche A, Pech JC: Functional characterization of a melon alcohol acyl-transferase gene family involved in the biosynthesis of ester volatiles. Plant Mol Biol. 2005 Sep;59(2):345-62.
The expression of all Cm-AAT genes is up-regulated during ripening and inhibited in antisense ACC oxidase melons and in fruit treated with the ethylene antagonist 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP), indicating a positive regulation by ethylene.
We demonstrate here that, in Charentais melon (Cucumis melo var. cantalupensis), AAT are encoded by a gene family of at least four members with amino acid identity ranging from 84% (Cm-AAT1/Cm-AAT2) and 58% (Cm-AAT1/Cm-AAT3) to only 22% (Cm-AAT1/Cm-AAT4). |
