Abstract

BACKGROUND: Desacetoxyvindoline-4-hydroxylase is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of vindoline, the important intermediate leading to vinblastine and vincristine in Catharanthus roseus.

RESULTS: A d4h-like gene has been isolated from C. roseus C

CONCLUSION: These results suggest that d4h-like is closely related with d4h in the genetic evolution but with different transcriptional expression profiles. It may be revolved in the hormone-independency of C

Keywords: C20hi cells; Catharanthus roseus; Desacetoxyvindoline-4-hydroxylase; GUS activity; Real-time quantitative PCR; Transient expression; d4h-like
