Biosynthesis of trans-2-hexenal in response to wounding in strawberry fruit.
    Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 2006, Feb-22, Volume: 54, Issue:4

    Wounded strawberry fruit produces a diverse group of volatile compounds including aldehydes, alcohols, and esters derived from the lipoxygenase (LOX) and hydroperoxide lyase (HPL) pathways. Because the wound volatiles may play an important role in plant-fungal interaction, the goal of this study was to develop a greater understanding about the biosynthesis of the major wound volatile, trans-2-hexenal (t-2-H), produced by strawberry fruit upon wounding. To that end, composition and quantity of total and free fatty acids of control and wounded strawberry fruit were analyzed. In addition, activities of the key enzymes, LOX and HPL, and production of C6 aldehydes were determined. Intact strawberry fruit did not produce detectable t-2-H which is derived from alpha-linolenic acid (18:3). However, in response to wounding by bruising, strawberry fruit emitted t-2-H and its precursor cis-3-hexenal (c-3-H). The level of total lipid 18:3 in the fruit increased 2-fold in response to wounding, whereas free 18:3 declined slightly ( approximately 30%). At 10 min following wounding, fruit exhibited a 25% increase in LOX activity, which leads to the production of 13-hydroperoxyoctadecatrienoic acid (13-HPOT) from 18:3. The activity of HPL, which catalyzes formation of cis-3-hexenal from 13-HPOT, increased 2-fold by 10 min after wounding. Thus, during a 15 min period after wounding, free 18:3 substrate availability and the activity of two key enzymes, LOX and HPL, changed in a manner consistent with increased c-3-H and t-2-H biosynthesis.

Analysis of oxylipins by high-performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light-scattering detection and particle beam-mass spectrometry.
    Lipids, 1997, Volume: 32, Issue:9

    The metabolism of 13S-hydroperoxy-9Z,11E,15Z-octadecatrienoic acid was investigated in a crude enzyme extract from mung bean seedlings (Phaseolus radiatus L.). Hydroperoxide-metabolizing activity was mainly due to a hydroperoxide lyase and, to a lesser extent, to an allene oxide synthase and a peroxygenase. Oxylipins originating from hydrolysis and cyclization of the allene oxide synthase product 12,13-epoxy-9Z,11,15Z-octadecatrienoic acid and from peroxygenase catalysis were identified by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) particle beam-mass spectrometry (PB-MS) and quantified by normal-phase HPLC with an evaporative light-scattering detector (ELSD). An advantage of this methodology was the possibility to avoid extensive derivatization procedures commonly used for the gas chromatographic analysis of oxylipins. Owing to a comparable sample inlet system, the ELSD served an important analytical pilot function for the PB-MS: Qualitatively identical chromatographic patterns were obtained with both detection systems. The HPLC system enabled the separation of methyl 12-oxo-phytodienoate, methyl 11-hydroxy-12-oxo-9Z,15Z-octadecadienoate, methyl 12-oxo-13-hydroxy-9Z,15Z-octadecadienoate, methyl 9-hydroxy-12-oxo-10E,15Z-octadecadienoate, methyl 13-hydroxy-9Z,11E,15Z-octadecatrienoate, methyl 15,16-epoxy-13-hydroxy-9Z,11E-octadecadienoate, and methyl 13-hydroperoxy-9Z,11E,15Z-octadecatrienoate on a Lichrospher DIOL column within 33 min. Compared with a diode array detector, the ELSD proved to be more sensitive, in the case of methyl 12-oxo-13-hydroxy-9Z, 15Z-octadecadienoate by a factor of about 15. In addition, volatile metabolites were analyzed by capillary gas chromatography. The yield of the hydroperoxide lyase product 2E-hexenal was 49%, whereas the sum of oxylipins reached about 15%.
