RESUMO

Neolamarckia cadamba (Roxb.), a close relative of Coffea canephora and Ophiorrhiza pumila, is an important traditional medicine in Southeast Asia. Three major glycosidic monoterpenoid indole alkaloids (MIAs), cadambine and its derivatives 3ß-isodihydrocadambine and 3ß-dihydrocadambine, accumulate in the bark and leaves, and exhibit antimalarial, antiproliferative, antioxidant, anticancer and anti-inflammatory activities. Here, we report a chromosome-scale N. cadamba genome, with 744.5 Mb assembled into 22 pseudochromosomes with contig N50 and scaffold N50 of 824.14 Kb and 29.20 Mb, respectively. Comparative genomic analysis of N. cadamba with Co. canephora revealed that N. cadamba underwent a relatively recent whole-genome duplication (WGD) event after diverging from Co. canephora, which contributed to the evolution of the MIA biosynthetic pathway. We determined the key intermediates of the cadambine biosynthetic pathway and further showed that NcSTR1 catalyzed the synthesis of strictosidine in N. cadamba. A new component, epoxystrictosidine (C27H34N2O10, m/z 547.2285), was identified in the cadambine biosynthetic pathway. Combining genome-wide association study (GWAS), population analysis, multi-omics analysis and metabolic gene cluster prediction, this study will shed light on the evolution of MIA biosynthetic pathway genes. This N. cadamba reference sequence will accelerate the understanding of the evolutionary history of specific metabolic pathways and facilitate the development of tools for enhancing bioactive productivity by metabolic engineering in microbes or by molecular breeding in plants.

RESUMO

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries face a few vital issues, including poor conductivity, severe volume expansion/contraction, and especially the detrimental shuttle effect during the long-term electrochemical process. Herein, we designed a hierarchical MXene@TiO2 nanoarray via in situ solvothermal strategies followed by heat treatment. The MXene@TiO2 heterostructure achieves superior charge transfer and sulfur encapsulation. Based on the polar-polar and Lewis acid-base mechanism, the robust dual chemisorption capability to trap polysulfides can be synergistically realized through the intense polarity of TiO2 and the abundant acid metal sites of MXene. Hence, the MXene@TiO2 nanoarray as a sulfur host retains a substantially stable discharge capacity of 612.7 mA h g-1 after 500 cycles at a rate of 2 C, which represents a low fading rate of 0.058% per cycle.
