Comparative transcriptome analysis to reveal putative genes responsible for high theacrine content in Kucha (Camellia kucha (Chang et Wang) Chang)

Abstract: Background: The purine alkaloid theacrine, synthesized in a high amount in Kucha (Camellia kucha (Chang et Wang) Chang), has shown multiple pharmacological effects such as anti-depression, dehydration and hypnotic activities. It is critical to better understand the theacrine metabolism at the molecular level for future breeding programs. Results: In this study, we carried out comparative transcriptome analysis of Kucha (Kucha-6 and Kucha-11) and conventional varieties (Yinghong 9 and Qingxin 1). HPLC showed th… Show more
