RESUMEN
This study reported the obtainment of the full-length cDNA of Salvia miltiorrhiza hairy roots (Abbr: SmHDR, GenBank number: JX233817), via extracting Salvia miltiorrhiza hairy roots total RNA, designing specific primers according to the transcriptome data and using the RACE strategy, and then analyzed it with bioinformatics approaches. On this basis, using the real-time PCR to detect SmHDR gene expression after Ag+ induction, and testing tanshinones contents of corresponding samples by UPLC. SmHDR has 1 647 nucleotides, and an open reading frame (ORF) encoding a protein of 463 amino acid residues. The deduced protein has isoelectric point (pI) of 5.72 and a calculated molecular weight about 51.88 kD. In the secondary structure, the percentage of alpha helix, beta turn and random coil were 35.64%, 20.30% and 44.06%, respectively. Sequence alignment and phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that SmHDR had relative close relationship to the HDR of Picrorhiza kurrooa, similar to HDR from other species of plants. Real time PCR results indicated that elicitor of Ag+ stimulated the increase of mRNA expression of SmHDR. At the same time, results of ultra performance liquid chromatography (UPLC), used to examine the accumulation of diterpenoid tanshinones in hairy roots, showed that the contents of diterpenoid tanshinones in hairy roots of Salvia miltiorrhiza were increased dramatically at 12 h after treated with Ag+, and then decreased significantly. This result showed a positive correlation between the levels of mRNA expression and tanshinones accumulation in Salvia miltiorrhiza stimulated by Ag+. The content of tanshinones was gradually raised, and it had an obvious increase at 120 h. The bioinformatics analysis and gene expression indicated that SmHDR might be involved in tanshinones biosynthesis, which laid the foundation for further study of secondary metabolic regulation mechanism of tanshinones.

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To clone and analysis a 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate synthase (SmMCS) full-length eDNA from Salvia miltiorrhiza hairy roots.</p><p><b>METHOD</b>A full-length eDNA of SmMCS has been cloned by designing specific primers according to the transcriptome database and using the RACE strategy. ORF Finder was used to find the open reading frame of SmMCS cDNA and ClustalW has been performed to analysis the multiple amino acid sequence alignment. Phylogenetic tree has been constructed using MEGA 5. 1. Real-time quantitative PCR have been applied to detect the transcription level of SmMCS from hairy roots after elicitor Ag+ supplied.</p><p><b>RESULT</b>The SmMCS cDNA sequence was obtained. The full length of SmMCS (DNA was 988 bp encoding 234 amino acids. The deduced protein had isoelectric point (pI) of 8.53 and a calculated molecular weight about 24. 6 kDa. Results of real time PCR indicated that elicitor of Ag+ stimulated the increase of mRNA expression of SmMCS in hairy roots, and were increased dramatically at 12 h.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The full-length cDNA of SmMCS was cloned from S. miltiorrhiza hairy root,which can provide a gene target for further studies of tanshinones biosynthesis and terpenoid secondary metabolites.</p>

Diterpenes, an important class of natural compounds, are widely distributed in nature. As the valuable diterpenoids continue to be found, diterpene synthase in the course of diterpene synthesis get as much attention as possible. The multiformity of end-product-diterpenoids were also due to the diversity of diterpene synthase. This paper focuses on the advances in recent biosynthesis pathway of diterpene and types, cloning, catalytic mechanism, synthetic biology application.
