[PMID: 38670017 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139458] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/21/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Ripening refers to the process of chemical change during the refinement of Keemun black tea (KBT) and is crucial in the formation of Keemun Congou black tea's quality. In this study, the aroma composition of KBT during the ripening was analyzed. Sensomics indicated that ripening strengthened the coconut and fatty aroma of KBT and contributed to the decrease of green aroma substances, resulting in a shift of the overall aroma type of KBT to an integrated aroma profile, which was consistent with sensory evaluation. Changes in fatty acid content and the results of in vitro addition simulation tests confirmed that heat causes highly degradation of fatty acids into fatty aroma volatiles, which is a key driver of the formation of "Keemun aroma" quality. This study revealed the mechanism behind the formation of KBT's integrated "Keemun aroma" quality and the mode of thermal degradation of major fatty acids.

Abstract
This overview summarizes the latest research progress on the aroma absorption mechanism and aroma fixation pathway of jasmine green tea, and discusses in depth the aroma absorption mechanism of green tea, the aroma release mechanism of jasmine flowers, as well as the absorption and fixation mechanism of the aroma components of jasmine green tea in the process of scenting, to provide a theoretical basis for the improvement of the quality of jasmine green tea and the innovation of processing technology. It was found that the aroma absorption mechanism of jasmine green tea is mainly associated with both physical and chemical adsorption, aroma release in jasmine involves the phenylpropanoid/benzoin biosynthetic pathway, β-glycosidase enzymes interpreting putative glycosidic groups, and heat shock proteins (HSPs) as molecular chaperones to prevent stress damage in postharvest flowers due to high temperatures and to promote the release of aroma components, and so forth. The preparation of aroma-protein nano-complexes, heat stress microcapsules, and the spraying of polymeric substances - β-cyclodextrin are three examples of aroma-fixing pathways. This overview also summarizes the problems and future development trends of the current research and proposes the method of loading benzyl acetate, the main aroma component of jasmine, through konjac glucomannan (KGM)-based gel to solve the problem of volatile aroma and difficult-to-fix aroma, which provides a reference for the sustainable development of the jasmine green tea industry. © 2024 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
This study was the first to comprehensively investigate the metabolic mechanism of flavonoid glycosides (FGs) and their contribution to flavor evolution during white tea processing using quantitative descriptive analysis, metabolomics, dose-over-threshold factors and pseudo-first-order kinetics. A total of 223 flavonoids were identified. Total FGs decreased from 7.02 mg/g to 4.35 mg/g during processing, compared to fresh leaves. A total of 86 FGs had a significant impact on the flavor evolution and 9 key flavor FGs were identified. The FG biosynthesis pathway was inhibited during withering, while the degradation pathway was enhanced. This promoted the degradation of 9 key flavor FGs following pseudo-first-order kinetics during withering. The degradation of the FGs contributed to increase the taste acceptance of white tea from -4.18 to 1.32. These results demonstrated that water loss stress during withering induces the degradation of key flavor FGs, contributing to the formation of the unique flavor of white tea.

Abstract
A novel β-primeverosidase-like enzyme, originating from the hypocotyl of soybeans, was isolated and characterized. This enzyme, with an estimated molecular weight of 44 kDa, was identified as a monomer and exhibited peak activity at 55 °C and pH 5.5. It demonstrated a specific and efficient hydrolysis of 1-octen-3-yl β-primeveroside (1-octen-3-yl prim) and 3-octanyl β-primeveroside (3-octanyl prim) but did not act on glucopyranosides. Mn2+ significantly enhanced its activity, while Zn2+, Cu2+, and Hg2+ exerted inhibitory effects. Kinetic analysis revealed a higher hydrolytic capacity toward 1-octen-3-yl prim. Partial amino acid sequences were determined and the N-terminal amino acid sequence was determined to be AIVAYAL ALSKRAIAAQ. The binding energy and binding free energy between the β-primeverosidase enzyme and its substrates were observed to be higher than that of β-glucosidase, thus validating its superior hydrolysis efficiency. Hydrogen bonds and hydrophobic interactions were the main types of interactions between β-primeverosidase enzyme and 1-octen-3-yl prim and 3-octanyl prim, involving amino acid residues such as GLU-470, TRP-463, GLU-416, TRP-471, GLN-53, and GLN-477 (hydrogen bonds) and PHE-389, TYR-345, LEU-216, and TYR-275 (hydrophobic interactions). This study contributes to the application of a β-primeverosidase-like enzyme in improving the release efficiency of glycosidically conjugated flavor substances.

Spatial and Temporal Disparity Analyses of Glycosylated Benzaldehyde and Identification and Expression Pattern Analyses of Uridine Diphosphate Glycosyltransferase Genes in Prunus mume. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 13:703. [PMID: 38475550 DOI: 10.3390/plants13050703] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2023] [Revised: 02/01/2024] [Accepted: 02/07/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024]
Abstract
The species Prunus mume consists of uniquely aromatic woody perennials with large amounts of free aromatic substances in the flower cells. Uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferase (UGT) modifies these free aromatic substances into water-soluble glycoside-bound volatiles (GBVs) which play an important role in regulating the use of volatiles by plants for information exchange, defense, and stress tolerance. To investigate the changes in the glycosidic state of aromatic substances during the flowering period of P. mume and discern the location and expression of glycoside synthesis genes, we extracted and enzymatically hydrolyzed GBVs of P. mume and then utilized gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to characterize and analyze the types and contents of GBV glycosides. Further, we identified and classified the members of the UGT gene family of P. mume using the bioinformatic method and analyzed the correlation between the expression of the UGT family genes in P. mume and the changes in glycosidic content. The results showed that the benzenoids were the main aromatic substance that was glycosylated during flowering in P. mume and that glycosidic benzaldehyde was the most prevalent compound in different flower parts and at different flowering stages. The titer of glycoside benzaldehyde gradually increased during the bud stage and reached the highest level at the big bud stage (999.6 μg·g-1). Significantly, titers of glycoside benzaldehyde significantly decreased and stabilized after flowering while the level of free benzaldehyde, in contrast, significantly increased and then reached a plateau after the flowering process was completed. A total of 155 UGT family genes were identified in the P. mume genome, which were divided into 13 subfamilies (A-E, G-N); according to the classification of Arabidopsis thaliana UGT gene subfamilies, the L subfamily contains 17 genes. The transcriptome analysis showed that PmUGTL9 and PmUGTL13 were highly expressed in the bud stage and were strongly correlated with the content of the glycosidic form of benzaldehyde at all stages of flowering. This study provides a theoretical basis to elucidate the function of UGT family genes in P. mume during flower development, to explore the mechanism of the storage and transportation of aromatic compounds in flower tissues, and to exploit industrial applications of aromatic products from P. mume.

Abstract
Aroma is among of the most important criteria that indicate the quality of food and beverage products. Aroma compounds can be found as free molecules or glycosides. Notably, a significant portion of aroma precursors accumulates in numerous food products as nonvolatile and flavorless glycoconjugates, termed glycosidic aroma precursors. When subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis, these seemingly inert, nonvolatile glycosides undergo transformation into fragrant volatiles or volatiles that can generate odor-active compounds during food processing. In this context, microbial β-glucosidases play a pivotal role in enhancing or compromising the development of flavors during food and beverage processing. β-glucosidases derived from bacteria and yeast can be utilized to modulate the concentration of particular aroma and taste compounds, such as bitterness, which can be decreased through hydrolysis by glycosidases. Furthermore, oral microbiota can influence flavor perception by releasing volatile compounds that can enhance or alter the perception of food products. In this review, considering the glycosidic flavor precursors present in diverse food and beverage products, we underscore the significance of glycosidases with various origins. Subsequently, we delve into emerging insights regarding the release of aroma within the human oral cavity due to the activity of oral microbial glycosidases.

Abstract
Microbes are crucial to the quality formation of Sichuan South-road Dark Tea (SSDT) during pile-fermentation, but their mechanism of action has not yet been elucidated. Here, the glycoside hydrolase (GH) gene family and microbial function of Debaryomyces hansenii Y4 during solid-state fermentation were analyzed, and the results showed that many GH genes being distributed in comparatively abundant GH17, GH18, GH76, GH31, GH47, and GH2 were discovered in D. hansenii. They encoded beta-galactosidase, alpha-D-galactoside galactohydrolase, alpha-xylosidase, mannosidase, etc., and most of the GHs were located in the exocellular space and participated in the degradation of polysaccharides and oligosaccharides. D. hansenii Y4 could develop the mellow mouthfeel and "reddish brown" factors of SSDT via increasing the levels of water extracts, soluble sugars and amino acids but decreasing the tea polyphenols and caffeine levels, combined with altering the levels of thearubiins and brown index. It may facilitate the isomerization between epicatechin gallate and catechin gallate. Moreover, the expression levels of DEHA2G24860g (Beta-galactosidase gene) and DEHA2G08602g (Mannan endo-1,6-alpha-mannosidase DFG5 gene) were sharply up-regulated in fermentative anaphase, and they were significantly and negatively correlated with epicatechin content, especially, the expression of DEHA2G08602g was significantly and negatively correlated with catechin gallate level. It was hypothesized that D. hansenii Y4 is likely to be an important functional microbe targeting carbohydrate destruction and catechin transformation during SSDT pile-fermentation, with DEHA2G08602g as a key thermotolerant functional gene.

Abstract
Spreading is an indispensable process in the aroma formation of premium green tea. In this study, volatile metabolomics and transcriptomics were performed for three tea plant cultivars to investigate the mechanism of changes occurring in volatile compounds during green tea spreading. The content of primary aroma compounds significantly increased after spreading, the Wickremasinghe-Yamanishi ratio decreased and the Owuor's flavor index increased with the extension of spreading time, and the degree of aroma production was genotype-dependent. Volatile terpenes and fatty acid-derived volatiles were the principal aroma volatiles that accumulated during the spreading of green tea, and the trends of their changes were consistent with the expression pattern of related synthesis pathway genes, indicating that they were primarily derived from de novo synthesis rather than glycoside hydrolysis. Two co-expression networks that were highly correlated with variations in the volatile component contents during the spreading process were identified via WGCNA. Our results provide insights into spreading that can be considered to improve the quality of green tea.

Abstract
There are numerous non-volatile metabolites in the fresh shoots of tea plants. However, we know little about the complex relationship between the content of these metabolites and their gene expression levels. In investigating this, this study involved non-volatile metabolites from 68 accessions of tea plants that were detected and identified using untargeted metabolomics. The tea accessions were divided into three groups from the results of a principal component analysis based on the relative content of the metabolites. There were differences in variability between the primary and secondary metabolites. Furthermore, correlations among genes, gene metabolites, and metabolites were conducted based on Pearson's correlation coefficient (PCC) values. This study offered several significant insights into the co-current network of genes and metabolites in the global genetic background. Thus, the study is useful for providing insights into the regulatory relationship of the genetic basis for predominant metabolites in fresh tea shoots.

Abstract
This study investigated the regulatory relationship between important flavor compounds and microRNA (miRNA) in nine different tissues of tea plant by analyzing the related metabolites, small RNAs (sRNAs), degradome, and coexpression network. A total of 272 differential expressed miRNAs (DEmiRNAs) were obtained, including 198 conserved miRNAs and 74 novel miRNAs. Meanwhile, the expression patterns of miR159-GAMYB, miR167-ARF, and miR396-GRF pairs were investigated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and the target sites were verified by 5'RNA ligase-mediated RACE (5' RLM-RACE). Further coexpression analysis showed that the content of gallated catechins was significantly and negatively correlated with the expression of miR156, but positively correlated with the expression of miR166 and miR172. Additionally, the expression of miR169a, miR169l, and miR319h was shown to be positively correlated with the content of nongallated catechins and the experssion levels of ANRa, ANRb, and LARb. Moreover, important volatile compounds, such as linalool, geraniol, and 2-phenylethanol, were found to be highly positively correlated with the expression of miR171o, miRN71a, miRN71b, miRN71c, and miRN71d. Our data indicate that these miRNAs may play important roles in regulating the biosynthesis of flavor compounds in different tissues of tea plant.

Abstract
Tea (Camellia sinensis) is both a plant and a foodstuff. Many bioactive compounds, which are present in the final tea product and related to its quality or functional properties, are produced during the tea manufacturing process. However, the characteristic secondary metabolites, which give tea its unique qualities and are beneficial to human health, are produced mainly in the leaves during the process of plant growth. Therefore, it is important to understand how tea leaves produce these specialized metabolites. In this review, we first compare the common metabolites and specialized metabolites in tea, coffee, cocoa, and grape and discuss the occurrence of characteristic secondary metabolites in tea. Progress in research into the formation of these characteristic secondary metabolites in tea is summarized, including establishing a biological database and genetic transformation system, and the biosynthesis of characteristic secondary metabolites. Finally, speculation on future research into the characteristic secondary metabolites of tea is provided from the viewpoints of the origin, resources, cultivation, and processing of tea. This review provides an important reference for future research on the specialized metabolites of tea in terms of its characteristics.

Abstract
Tea quality is a polygenic trait that exhibits tremendous genetic variability due to accumulation of array of secondary metabolites. To elucidate global molecular insights controlling quality attributes, metabolite profiling and transcriptome sequencing of twelve diverse tea cultivars was performed in tea shoots harvested during quality season. RP-HPLC-DAD analysis of quality parameters revealed significant difference in catechins, theanine and caffeine contents. Transcriptome sequencing resulted into 50,107 non-redundant transcripts with functional annotations of 81.6% (40,847) of the transcripts. Interestingly, 2872 differentially expressed transcripts exhibited significant enrichment in 38 pathways (FDR ≤ 0.05) including secondary metabolism, amino acid and carbon metabolism. Thirty-eight key candidates reportedly involved in biosynthesis of fatty acid derived volatiles, volatile terpenes, glycoside hydrolysis and key quality related pathways (flavonoid, caffeine and theanine-biosynthesis) were highly expressed in catechins-rich tea cultivars. Furthermore, enrichment of candidates involved in flavonoid biosynthesis, transcriptional regulation, volatile terpene and biosynthesis of fatty acid derived volatile in Protein-Protein Interactome network revealed well-coordinated regulation of quality characteristics in tea. Additionally, ascertainment of 23,649 non-synonymous SNPs and validation of candidate SNPs present in quality related genes suggests their potential utility in genome-wide mapping and marker development for expediting breeding of elite compound-rich tea cultivars.

Abstract
It is generally proposed that tea cultivars with larger leaves contain more linalool, an important tea aroma contributor, than ones with smaller leaves. The objective of this study was to confirm the trait and explore the involved reason. Investigation on ten tea cultivars with different leaf areas demonstrated a significant positive correlation between linalool content and leaf area (R2 = 0.739, p = 0.010). Analysis of metabolite and gene expression level showed that the transform ability of linalool into linalool oxides was the key factor. Feeding experiments that supplied tea leaves of different leaf areas with [2H3]linalool under different light conditions revealed that the larger tea leaves receive more light and are less capable of transformation of linalool to linalool oxides, thus leading to linalool accumulation. This information will advance understanding of the variation of linalool content in tea varieties and will provide assistance in breeding and screening of high-linalool tea cultivars.

Abstract
Fruit aroma is mainly contributed by free and glycosidically bound aroma compounds, in which glycosidically bound form can be converted into free form during storage and processing, thereby enhancing the overall aroma property. In recent years, the bound aroma precursors have been widely used as flavor additives in the food industry to enhance, balance and recover the flavor of products. This review summarizes the fruit-derived aroma glycosides in different aspects including chemical structures, enzymatic hydrolysis, biosynthesis and occurrence. Aroma glycosides structurally involve an aroma compound (aglycone) and a sugar moiety (glycone). They can be hydrolyzed to release free volatiles by endo- and/or exo-glucosidase, while their biosynthesis refers to glycosylation process using glycosyltransferases (GTs). So far, aroma glycosides have been found and studied in multiple fruits such as grapes, mangoes, lychees and so on. Additionally, their importance in flavor perception, their utilization in food flavor enhancement and other industrial applications are also discussed. Aroma glycosides can enhance flavor perception via hydrolyzation by β-glucosidase in human saliva. Moreover, they are able to impart product flavor by controlling the liberation of active volatiles in industrial applications. This review provides fundamental information for the future investigation on the fruit-derived aroma glycosides.

Abstract
We herein report the preparation of a full-length raucaffricine-O-beta-D-glucosidase gene of stevia rebaudiana Bertoni (named SrRG1, GenBank accession number MK920450). Sequence analysis indicated SrRG1 consists of a 1650 bp open reading frame encoding a protein of 549 amino acids. Its deduced amino acid sequence showed a high identity of 82% with a raucaffricine-O-beta-D-glucosidase from H. annuus of glycoside hydrolase family 1. The expression pattern analyzed by real-time quantitative PCR showed no significant difference among different tissues, developmental stages, and cultivars under normal growth conditions. Furthermore, the gene function of SrRG1 was preliminarily studied by agrobacterium-mediated transformation on instantaneous expression. In the test of agrobacterium-mediated transformation on instantaneous expression, it was observed that overexpression of SrRG1 increased the accumulation of steviol content and decreased the major components and total SGs contents. Such results demonstrated that SrRG1 may participate in the steviol glycosides catabolic pathway. However, the effect of silencing construct infiltration on steviol and SGs content was not significant and its expression pattern was constitutive, which most probably, attributed the hydrolysis of SGs to the secondary activity of SrRG1. This study firstly identified the bate-glucosidase in stevia and advances our understanding of steviol glycosides hydrolyzation.

Abstract
β-Glucosidase (BG) was immobilized on the surface of bifunctionalized nano-magnetic iron oxide with silica and amine groups (Fe3O4@SiO2-NH2). The aroma and flavonoid aglycone enhancement effect of BG in tea soup was investigated. The immobilized BG-synthesized nanocomposite morphology and structure were characterized by using different analytical techniques, including Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The immobilized BG showed enhanced pH and temperature endurance at an optimum pH of 5.0 and temperature of 65 °C. After seven cycles of reuse, immobilized BG showed 51.8% initial activity. Immobilized-BG treatment in green tea and black tea soup elevated the aroma content by approximately 16% and 48%, respectively. In addition, flavonoid aglycones, such as myricetin, kaempferol, and quercetin, in green tea and black tea soup increased by approximately 65- and 5-fold, respectively. These results suggested that immobilized BG showed excellent potential in the enhancement of aroma and effectively hydrolyzed the flavonoid glycosides to release flavonoid aglycones in tea soup. Hence, this study provides a green and sustainable approach for the tea industry to efficiently enhance tea soup properties.

Abstract
Tea cultivation and utilization dates back to antiquity. Today it is the most widely consumed beverage on earth due to its pleasant taste and several beneficial health properties attributed to specific metabolites. Metabolomics has a tremendous potential to correlate tea metabolites with taste and health properties in humans. Our review on the current application of metabolomics in the science of tea suggests that metabolomics is a promising frontier in the evaluation of tea quality, identification of functional genes responsible for key metabolites, investigation of their metabolic regulation, and pathway analysis in the tea plant. Furthermore, the challenges, possible solutions, and the prospects of metabolomics in tea science are reviewed.

Abstract
The enzymatic hydrolysis of glycosidically bound volatiles (GBVs) plays an important role in tea aroma formation during the tea manufacturing process. However, during the enzyme-active manufacturing process of oolong tea, most GBVs showed no reduction, while ( Z)-3-hexenyl-β-glucopyranoside significantly enhanced at the turnover stage. This study aimed to determine the reason for this increase in ( Z)-3-hexenyl-β-glucopyranoside. Continuous wounding stress in the turnover stage did not enhance the expression level of glycosyltransferase 1 ( CsGT1), while it induced a significant increase in the ( Z)-3-hexenol content ( p ≤ 0.05). Furthermore, observing the cell structures of tea leaves exposed to continuous wounding and subcellular localizations of CsGTs suggested that the interaction of ( Z)-3-hexenol (substrate) and CsGT1 (enzyme) was available. In conclusion, both continuous wounding and subcellular localizations led to a ( Z)-3-hexenyl-β-glucopyranoside enhancement mechanism during the oolong tea's turnover stage. These results advance our understanding of GBV formation during the tea manufacturing process and their relationship with the stress from the tea manufacturing process. In addition, the information will help us further evaluate contribution of GBVs to enzymatic formation of oolong tea aroma compounds.

Abstract
Tea (Camellia sinensis) cultivars with green leaves are the most widely used for making tea. Recently, tea mutants with white or yellow young shoots have attracted increasing interest as raw materials for making "high-quality" tea products. Albino teas are generallycharacterized as having metabolites of relatively high amino acid content and lower catechin content. However, little is known about aroma compounds in albino tea leaves. Herein, we compared original normal leaves (green) and light-sensitive albino leaves (yellow) of cv. Yinghong No. 9. GC-MS was employed to analyze endogenous tea aroma compounds and related precursors. Quantitative real time PCR was used to measure expression levels of genes involved in biosyntheses of tea aromas.The total contents of most endogenous free tea aromas, including aroma fatty acid derivatives, aroma terpenes, and aroma phenylpropanoids/benzenoids, and their glycosidically bound aroma compounds, were lower in yellow leaves than in green leaves. The content of the key precursor geranyl diphosphate (GDP) and expression levels of key synthetic genes involved in the formation of linalool, a major aroma compound in cv. Yinghong No. 9, were investigated. Linalool content was lower in albino-induced yellow leaves, which was due to the lower GDP content compared with normal green leaves.

Abstract
Metabolite formation is a biochemical and physiological feature of plants developed as an environmental response during the evolutionary process. These metabolites help defend plants against environmental stresses, but are also important quality components in crops. Utilizing the stress response to improve natural quality components in plants has attracted increasing research interest. Tea, which is processed by the tender shoots or leaves of tea plant (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze), is the second most popular beverage worldwide after water. Aroma is an important factor affecting tea character and quality. The defense responses of tea leaves against various stresses during preharvest (tea growth process) and postharvest (tea manufacturing) processing can result in aroma formation. Herein, we summarize recent investigations into the biosyntheses of several characteristic aroma compounds prevalent in teas and derived from volatile fatty acid derivatives, terpenes, and phenylpropanoids/benzenoids. Several key aroma synthetic genes from tea leaves have been isolated, cloned, sequenced, and functionally characterized. Biotic stress (such as tea green leafhopper attack) and abiotic stress (such as light, temperature, and wounding) could enhance the expression of aroma synthetic genes, resulting in the abundant accumulation of characteristic aroma compounds in tea leaves. Understanding the specific relationships between characteristic aroma compounds and stresses is key to improving tea quality safely and effectively.

Abstract
To elucidate formation mechanism of oolong tea aroma, the released and remaining volatiles during bruising and withering treatment were analyzed using head space solid-phase microextraction/gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. An increase in proportion of the released terpenoid volatiles (TVs) along with a decrease in proportion of the released C6 green leaf volatiles (GLVs) was observed in both cultivars 'Zhejiang139' and 'Foshou'. Proportion of remaining TVs also fluctuated reversely with GLVs although the level of these volatiles increased remarkably. High ratio of TVs to GLVs was the key chemical foundation of oolong tea characteristic aroma and could be regarded as a good indicator in screening cultivar for suitably producing high quality oolong tea. Combining with transcriptome analysis, increased TVs and GLVs during the treatment might be largely generated through de novo synthesis and modulated at transcript level through up-regulation of genes involved in terpenoids metabolism and enzymatic cleavage of long-chain fatty acids.

Abstract
Methyl salicylate (MeSA) is one of the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that releases floral scent and plays an important role in the sweet flowery aroma of tea. During the withering process for white tea producing, MeSA was generated by salicylic acid carboxyl methyltransferase (SAMT) with salicylic acid (SA), and the specific floral scent was formed. In this study, we first cloned a CsSAMT from tea leaves (GenBank accession no. MG459470) and used Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae to express the recombinant CsSAMT. The enzyme activity in prokaryotic and eukaryotic expression systems was identified, and the protein purification, substrate specificity, pH, and temperature optima were investigated. It was shown that CsSAMT located in the chloroplast, and the gene expression profiles were quite different in tea organs. The obtained results might give a new understanding for tea aroma formation, optimization, and regulation and have great significance for improving the specific quality of white tea.
