AB  - Iridoids, a class of atypical monoterpenes, exhibit exceptional diversity within the Nepeta genus (subfam. Nepetoidae, fam. Lamiaceae).The majority of these plants produce iridoids of the unique stereochemistry, with nepetalactones (NLs) predominating; however, a few Nepeta species lack these compounds. By comparatively analyzing metabolomics, transcriptomics, gene co-expression, and phylogenetic data of the iridoid-producing N. rtanjensis Diklić & Milojević and iridoid-lacking N. nervosa Royle & Bentham, we presumed that one of the factors responsible for the absence of these compounds in N. nervosa is iridoid synthase (ISY). Two orthologues of ISY were mined from leaves transcriptome of N. rtanjensis (NrPRISE1 and NrPRISE2), while in N. nervosa only one (NnPRISE) was identified, and it was phylogenetically closer to the representatives of the Family 1 isoforms, designated as P5βRs. Organ-specific and MeJA-elicited profiling of iridoid content and co-expression analysis of IBG candidates, highlighted NrPRISE2 and NnPRISE as promising candidates for ISY orthologues, and their function was confirmed using in vitro assays with recombinant proteins, after heterologous expression of recombinant proteins in E. coli and their His-tag affinity purification. NrPRISE2 demonstrated ISY activity both in vitro and likely in planta, which was supported by the 3D modeling and molecular docking analysis, thus reclassification of NrPRISE2 to NrISY is accordingly recommended. NnPRISE also displays in vitro ISY-like activity, while its role under in vivo conditions was not here unambiguously confirmed. Most probably under in vivo conditions the NnPRISE lacks substrates to act upon, as a result of the loss of function of some of the upstream enzymes of the iridoid pathway. Our ongoing work is conducted towards re-establishing the biosynthesis of iridoids in N. nervosa.

AB  - The present study was principally aimed at ascertaining the differences in metabolomics profiles and biological activities between non-hydrolyzed (ME) and hydrolyzed methanol extract (HME) of Centaurium erythraea Rafn. UHPLC-MS/MS Orbitrap analysis showed that the enzymatic hydrolysis of the extract caused changes in beta-Dglycoside/aglycone ratio of both flavonoid and secoiridoid compounds. UHPLC/DAD/ + HESI - qqqMS characterization and/or quantification of secoiridoid glucosides (SGs) and their aglycones in both ME and HME revealed gentiopicral and erythrocentaurin as the major aglycones, the same metabolic products which appear after the hydrolysis of pure swertiamarin, the dominant secoiridoid glucoside of C. erythraea. SGs played an antioxidant role only in ABTS assay, whilst the remarkable antioxidant potential of C. erythraea methanol extract is ascribed chiefly to phenolics detected in it. Interestingly, antioxidant activities of swertiamarin and sweroside recorded in ABTS assay increased after the compounds have been hydrolyzed, which highlighted their possible antioxidant role during ingestion. Strong antimicrobial activities of ME and HME against a vast array of pathogens, which exceed the effects of the reference antibiotics and antimycotics, largely depended on the amount of secoiridoids in either of the glycosylation forms. Extracts and pure secoiridoids were especially effective against most of the tested Penicillium species. On the other hand, P. funiculosum has evolved an efficient mechanism of detoxification of sub-lethal concentrations of secoiridoid glucosides, involving their biotransformation and complete digestion. The presented findings will contribute to clarify the fate and role of the SGs after C. erythraea ingestion within in vivo systems, and to further promote this remarkable plant as a food preservation additive with significant health benefits.
