Son JS, Chang YJ, Choi YD, Kim SU: Role of jasmonic acid in biotransformation of (--)-isopiperitenone in suspension cell culture of Mentha piperita. Mol Cells. 1998 Jun 30;8(3):366-9.
The role of jasmonic acid was studied in biotransformation of (--)-isopiperitenone to (--)-7-hydroxyisopiperitenone using alpha suspension cells were treated with (--)-isopiperitenone, mRNA of a cytochrome P450 was induced in a similar time-course pattern as the biotransformation shown in a previous study (Park et al., 1997). The induction of P450 mRNA and the biotransformation of (--)-isopiperitenone were increased by methyl jasmonate, but decreased by salicylhydroxamic acid, and inhibitor of jasmonic acid synthesis. These results suggest that the biotransformation involves the induction of P450 which is mediated by jasmonic acid as a signaling molecule. |
