Research Abstract |
Novel fusicoplagins, isolated from the leafy liverwort Plagiochila sciophila, are diterpenoids thay are potent inducers of differentiation in human myelocytic leukemia HL-60 cells. Because the fusicoplagins are a minuscule amount in the liverwort, construction of the stable supply method is a matter of great urgency. Therefore, studies aiming at the elucidation of the entire biosynthetic genes was carried out using a comprehensive transcriptome method. The predicted biosynthetic genes were discovered and the function of the diterpene cyclases was analyzed using heterologous gene expression system.
