 This research paper examined the molecular mechanisms behind the production of mogrocytes, a type of tritapinoid saponin found in the fruit of psoriasia grossvanorii, a non-model plant species native to southern China. Using next-generation sequencing techniques, the authors identified and characterized the genetic components involved in mogrocytes biosynthesis. They also conducted digital gene expression profiling to identify candidate genes involved in mogrocytes biosynthesis. This study provides valuable insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying the production of these compounds, which could potentially lead to new therapeutics or other applications.
