physiological function
additional information
-
enzyme OsTPS24 is localized in chloroplasts and produced the monoterpene, gamma-terpinene. The amount of gamma-terpinene increased after jasmonate treatment. gamma-Terpinene has significant antibacterial activity against Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), but it does not show significant antifungal activity against Magnaporthe oryzae. The antibacterial activity of gamma-terpinene against Xoo is caused by damage to bacterial cell membranes. These results suggest that gamma-terpinene plays an important role in jasmonate-induced resistance against Xoo, and that it functions as an antibacterial compound in rice plants
physiological function
The biosynthesis of gamma-terpinene, a precursor of the phenolic isomers thymol and carvacrol found in the essential oil from Thymus sp., is attributed to the activitiy of gamma-terpinene synthase (TvTPS)
physiological function
-
the monoterpene synthase activity is predominantly regulated at the level of transcription, and the phenolic monoterpene alcohol thymol is derived from gamma-terpinene, the product of a single monoterpene synthase. Terpene synthase expression levels directly control the composition of the essential oils. Proportion (%) changes of essential oil components in different varieties of Origanum majorana, GC-MS analysis of plant volatiles, overview
