英文摘要	Toosendanin, bearing a furan ring, is a limonoid belonging to the group of tetranortriterpenoids. Toosendanin is a phytochemical found in the medicinal plantMelia toosendanSieb.etZucc. of the Meliaceae family. Toosendanin and its derivatives demonstrate high insecticidal activity and are important pesticides derived from plants. Despite intensive investigation of limonoids over several decades, the biosynthetic pathway of these triterpenoids is less understood. To identify the key enzymes involved in the toosendanin biosynthetic pathway, we analyzed the contents of toosendanin in various plant tissues and parts and found that the highest level of toosendanin was found in the developing fruit and gradually decreased as the fruit matured. More than 346 116 transcripts were assembled based on 394 million paired-end Illumina reads and 6 million PacBio reads from the pooled RNA samples of fruits, leaves and young barks. A total of 186 263 genes were predicted. Six 2,3-oxidosqualene cyclase (OSC) genes were identified by analyzing the association between gene expression and metabolite profiles. Functional analyses using theNicotiana benthamianatransient expression assay showed thatMtOSC1catalyzed 2,3-oxidosqualene to produce a tetracyclic triterpene skeleton, tirucalla-7,24-dien-3 beta-ol, which is predicted as the precursor for toosendanin biosynthesis. We identified another OSC, MtOSC6, which is a lupeol synthase. Using synthetic biology methods, these identified enzymes could be used to model a biosynthetic pathway to produce large quantities of toosendanin.
