Proanthocyanidins (PAs) have antioxidant properties and are beneficial to human health. The fruit of apple (Malus x domestica Borkh.), especially the peel, is rich in various flavonoids, such as PAs, and thus is an important source of dietary antioxidants. Previous research on the regulation of PAs in apple has mainly focussed on the transcription level, whereas studies conducted at the post-transcriptional level are relatively rare. In this study, we investigated the function of mdm-miR858, a miRNA with multiple functions in plant development, in the peel of apple fruit. We showed that mdm-miR858 neg. regulated PA accumulation by targeting MdMYB9/11/12 in the peel. During fruit development, mdm-miR858 expression was neg. correlated with MdMYB9/11/12 expression and PA accumulation. A 5′-RACE experiment, GUS staining assays and transient luminescent assays indicated that mdm-miR858 cleaved and inhibited the expression of MdMYB9/11/12. Overexpression of mdm-miR858 in apple calli, tobacco and Arabidopsis reduced the accumulation of PAs induced by overexpression of MdMYB9/11/12. Furthermore, we found that MdBBX22 bound to the mdm-miR858 promoter and induced its expression. Overexpression of MdBBX22 induced the expression of mdm-miR858 to inhibit the accumulation of PAs in apple calli overexpressing MdMYB9/11/12. Under light stress, MdBBX22 induced mdm-miR858 expression to inhibit PA accumulation and thereby indirectly enhanced anthocyanin synthesis in the peel. The present results revealed that the MdBBX22-miR858-MdMYB9/11/12 module regulates PA accumulation in apple. The findings provide a reference for further studies of the regulatory mechanism of PA accumulation and the relationship between PAs and anthocyanins. This study involved multiple reactions and reactants, such as (2R,2’R,3R,3’R,4R)-2,2′-Bis(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-[4,8′-bichromane]-3,3′,5,5′,7,7′-hexaol (cas: 29106-49-8Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks).
(2R,2’R,3R,3’R,4R)-2,2′-Bis(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)-[4,8′-bichromane]-3,3′,5,5′,7,7′-hexaol (cas: 29106-49-8) belongs to alcohols. Alkyl halides are often synthesized from alcohols, in effect substituting a halogen atom for the hydroxyl group. A multistep synthesis may use Grignard-like reactions to form an alcohol with the desired carbon structure, followed by reactions to convert the hydroxyl group of the alcohol to the desired functionality.Category: alcohols-buliding-blocks
