[Method] Microstructure of I. indigotica Fort. and B. cusia （Nees） Bremek. with different sources were compared and analyzed by using digital microscopy. [Result] Comparison result of the microstructure shows that reticulate vessels, single starch granules, multiple starch granules and stone cells are mostly observed in I. indigotica Fort.; pitted vessels, parenchyma cells with small pits, single starch granules and cystolith are mostly observed in B. cusia （Nees） Bremek., which indicated that microstructure of L indigotica Fort. and B. cusia （Nees） Bremek. are significantly different. [Conclusion] Microstructure char- acteristics of I. indigotica Fort. and B. cusia （Nees） Bremek. established in this study can be used to evaluate the quality of these two kinds of Chinese herbal medicines, which also provide scientific basis and methods for comprehensively studying the quality standard of /. indigotica Fort. and B. cusia （Nees） Bremek.

Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase(PAL) is the first key enzyme of the phenylpropanoid pathway. The present study was designed to investigate whether there is a multi-gene family in I. Indigotic and, if so, to characterize their properties. We conducted a comprehensive survey on the transcription profiling database by using tBLASTn analysis. Several bioinformatics methods were employed to perform the prediction of composition and physicochemical characters. The expression levels of IiPAL genes in various tissues of I. indigotica with stress treatment were examined by quantitative real-time PCR. Protoplast transient transformation was used to observe the locations of IiPALs. IiPALs were functionally characterized by expression with pET-32a vector in Escherichia colis strain BL21(DE3). Integration of transcripts and metabolite accumulations was used to reveal the relation between IiPALs and target compounds. An new gene(IiPAL2) was identified and both IiPALs had the conserved enzymatic active site Ala-Ser-Gly and were classified as members of dicotyledon. IiPAL1 and IiPAL2 were expressed in roots, stems, leaves, and flowers, with the highest expression levels of IiPAL1 and IiPAL2 being observed in stems and roots, respectively. The two genes responded to the exogenous elicitor in different manners. Subcellular localization experiment showed that both IiPALs were localized in the cytosol. The recombinant proteins were shown to catalyze the conversion of L-Phe to trans-cinnamic acid. Correlation analysis indicated that Ii PAL1 was more close to the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites than IiPAL2. In conclusion, the present study provides a basis for the elucidation of the role of Ii PALs genes in the biosynthesis of phenolic compounds, which will help further metabolic engineering to improve the accumulation of bioactive components in I.indigotica.展开更多
