 The researchers used next-generation sequencing to identify genes involved in the production of mogrocytes, a type of tritopenoid saponyne found in the fruit of psoriasia gross venorei. They identified several genes coding for cytochrome P for 50 enzymes and UDP glucose transferases, two key enzymes in the biosynthetic pathway of mogrocytes. This information will help researchers better understand how these compounds are produced and could lead to new methods of producing them commercially.
