Research Progress in the Compartmentalization of Plant Specialized Metabolism
Plant specialized metabolism(PSM)can be compartmentalized at multiple levels,which plays important roles in plant growth and development,as well as responses to environmental stress.Here we reviewed the recent advance in the compartmentalization of PSM at the molecular,subcellular,cellular and organ levels.Due to the compartmentation of PSM,the intermediates of biosynthesis pathway have to shuttle between different compartments.Therefore,the transporters are an important part of the compartmentalized biosynthesis system of specialized metabolites.The studies of the compartmentalization of PSM and its related transporters not only expand our knowledge about PSM,but also provide new targets and research strategies for the synthetic biology of natural products.
