My principal role in this network was the discovery of P450 enzymes with novel functions. Wine is a rich source of chemically diverse aroma compounds, yet the underlying enzymes are largely unknown. The aim of this work is therefore to identify cytochromes P450 that synthesize aroma in grapes. These cytochromes P450 could be used for industrial production of flavor and fragrance compounds. In addition, grapevine is one of the most important crops in France and worldwide and aroma is of crucial importance for the quality of the final product. The knowledge of aroma biosynthetic pathways could thus also help to improve the quality of grapes and wines. This work was also supported by the funding of collaboration with the team of Dr Philippe Hugueney of the French National Institute for Agricultural Research (INRA) in Colmar by ANR (the French National Agency of Research). In the first part of my thesis, I review the current knowledge on wine aroma and its biosynthesis in the form of a meta-analysis of 19 published datasets of grape and wine aroma profiles. The objective of this work was to identify aroma compounds that are possibly synthesized in grapes by cytochromes P450. This reviewing and compiling study, presented here as Chapter 1 : Meta-analysis of grape and wine aroma (to be submitted to Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry), revealed an elaborate oxidative metabolism of the monoterpenol linalool, and convinced us to focus our efforts on biotransformations of this compound in grape and wine. After briefly introducing biosynthesis of terpenoids ( Chapter 2 ) and cytochromes P450 (Chapter 3 ), I review in detail recent progress in oxidations of monoterpenols by cytochromes P450 in Chapter 4 : Cytochrome P450-catalyzed oxidations of monoterpenols in plants (invited publication in Frontiers in Plant Science). In collaboration with the INRA group, we built an exhaustive and reliable annotation of cytochrome P450 genes in the reference grapevine genome. We then used this annotation to study the expression of these genes using publically available and INRA’s newly-generated transcriptomic data ( Chapter 5 : Annotation, classification, genomic organization and expression of the Vitis vinifera CYPome, to be submitted to BMC Genomics). This allowed us to identify several gene candidates for biosynthesis of aroma in grapes. In addition, it pointed to other cytochromes P450 of interest, involved for instance in the plant interactions with pathogens, and will provide the argument for future projects. The second part of the results and main experimental section addresses the formation of an important wine aroma compound, the wine lactone ( Chapter 6 : CYP76F14 catalyzes vi biosynthesis of wine lactone precursor from linalool, to be submitted to New Phytologist). I first show that this potent aroma is formed during wine ageing from a grapevine-derived precursor, ( E)-8-carboxylinalool. I then demonstrate that ( E)-8-carboxylinalool is synthesized from linalool by the grapevine cytochrome

  • Bifunctional CYP81AA Proteins Catalyse Identical Hydroxylations but Alternative Regioselective Phenol Couplings in Plant Xanthone Biosynthesis
    ARTICLE Received 27 Oct 2015 | Accepted 30 Mar 2016 | Published 5 May 2016 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms11472 OPEN Bifunctional CYP81AA proteins catalyse identical hydroxylations but alternative regioselective phenol couplings in plant xanthone biosynthesis Islam El-Awaad1,2,w, Marco Bocola3, Till Beuerle1,2, Benye Liu1,2 & Ludger Beerhues1,2 Xanthones are natural products present in plants and microorganisms. In plants, their biosynthesis starts with regioselective cyclization of 2,30,4,6-tetrahydroxybenzophenone to either 1,3,5- or 1,3,7-trihydroxyxanthones, catalysed by cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. Here we isolate and express CYP81AA-coding sequences from Hypericum calycinum and H. perforatum in yeast. Microsomes catalyse two consecutive reactions, that is, 30-hydro- xylation of 2,4,6-trihydroxybenzophenone and C–O phenol coupling of the resulting 2,30, 4,6-tetrahydroxybenzophenone. Relative to the inserted 30-hydroxyl, the orthologues Hc/HpCYP81AA1 cyclize via the para position to form 1,3,7-trihydroxyxanthone, whereas the paralogue HpCYP81AA2 directs cyclization to the ortho position, yielding the isomeric 1,3,5- trihydroxyxanthone. Homology modelling and reciprocal mutagenesis reveal the impact of S375, L378 and A483 on controlling the regioselectivity of HpCYP81AA2, which is converted into HpCYP81AA1 by sextuple mutation. However, the reciprocal mutations in HpCYP81AA1 barely affect its regiospecificity. Product docking rationalizes the alternative C–O phenol coupling reactions. Our results help understand the machinery of bifunctional CYPs. 1 Institute of Pharmaceutical Biology, Technische Universita¨t Braunschweig, Mendelssohnstrae 1, Braunschweig 38106, Germany. 2 Center of Pharmaceutical Engineering (PVZ), Technische Universita¨t Braunschweig, Franz-Liszt-Strae 35A, Braunschweig 38106, Germany. 3 Institute of Biotechnology, RWTH Aachen University, Worringerweg 1, Aachen 52074, Germany.

Date: 03-12-2018 Copyright © 2019 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Summary The understanding of grapevine reaction to its environment and resulting grape composition, wine composition and sensory profile forms the foundation from which wine producers make product-based/market-related, downstream cultivation decisions. Yet, surprisingly limited information is available to producers with regards to the expected changes in wine style linked to a range of harvest dates, including early or late/delayed harvest. Therefore the main objective of this descriptive study was to create a reference base to better assist practical harvest decision making. The native South African Vitis vinifera L. cv. Pinotage was studied due to its early and rapid sugar accumulation, analogous to the predicted grapevine response due to climate warming.
