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
