Cell‐Specific Expression and Cellular Compartmental Regulation in Camptothecin Biosynthesis

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plant secondary metabolites such as monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs) show tightly regulated biosynthesis and accumulation in specific organelles of distinct cell types. However, the cell‐specific expression patterns of anticancer MIA camptothecin biosynthetic genes in Ophiorrhiza pumila and the regulatory mechanisms of camptothecin ...
