Down-Regulation of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Kinase in Grapevine Cell Cultures and Leaves Is Linked to Enhanced Resveratrol Biosynthesis
In grapevine, trans-Resveratrol (tR) is produced as a defence mechanism against stress or infection. tR is also considered to be important for human health, which increases its interest to the scientific community. Transcriptomic analysis in grapevine cell cultures treated with the defence response...

In grapevine, trans-Resveratrol (tR) is produced as a defence mechanism against stress or infection. tR is also considered to be important for human health, which increases its interest to the scientific community. Transcriptomic analysis in grapevine cell cultures treated with the defence response elicitor methyl-β-cyclodextrin (CD) revealed that both copies of PHOSPHOENOLPYRUVATE CARBOXYLASE KINASE (<i>PPCK</i>) were down-regulated significantly. A role for PPCK in the defence response pathway has not been proposed previously. We therefore analysed the control of <i>PPCK</i> transcript levels in grapevine cell cultures and leaves elicited with CD. Moreover, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (<i>PPC</i>), stilbene synthase (<i>STS</i>), and the transcription factors <i>MYB14</i> and <i>WRKY24,</i> which are involved in the activation of <i>STS</i> transcription, were also analysed by RT-qPCR. The results revealed that under CD elicitation conditions <i>PPCK</i> down-regulation, increased stilbene production and loss of PPC activity occurs in both tissues.
