metabolism
-
the biosynthesis of oleoresin is usually completed through two separate pathways of methyl-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) and mevalonate (MVA) pathways in conifers, the enzyme is involved in the oleoresin monoterpene volatiles biosynthesis using geranyl diphosphate derived from the MEP pathway, biosynthetic pathway of terpenoids in Pinus massoniana
physiological function
-
the enzyme tricyclene synthase, in addition to geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase, (-)-alpha/betapinene, ABC transporters, non-specific lipid-transfer protein-like protein, phosphomethylpyrimidine synthase, ERFs and pathogen responses may play important roles in regulating the yield of oleoresin. Oleoresin is a mixture of many terpenoids including turpentine (monoterpenes and sesquiterpenes) and rosin (diterpenes) and is stored in resin ducts or blisters in stems, roots, needles and cones of conifer trees of Pinus massoniana.
