CsCuAOs and CsAMADH1 Are Required for Putrescine-Derived γ-Aminobutyric Acid Accumulation in Tea
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Polyamines are a potential source of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in plants under abiotic stress. However, studies on GABA enrichment in tea mostly focus on the GABA shunt, while the correlation between polyamine degradation and GABA formation in tea is largely unknown. In this study, tea plants responded to exogenous putrescine, resulting in a significant increase in GABA content, while the glutamate level did not change. At the same time, five copper-containing amine oxidase (CuAO) and eight aminoaldehyde dehydrogenase (AMADH) genes involved in the putrescine-derived GABA pathway were identified from the Tea Plant Information Archive. Expression analysis indicated that CsCuAO1, CsCuAO3 as well as CsAMADH1 were induced to play an important function in response to exogenous putrescine. Thus, the three genes were cloned and the catalytic efficiency of soluble recombinant proteins was determined. CsCuAOs and CsAMADH1 exhibited indispensable functions in the GABA production from putrescine in vitro. Subcellular localization assays indicated that CsAMADH1 was localized in plastid, while both CsCuAO1 and CsCuAO3 were localized in peroxisome. In addition, the synergistic effects of CsCuAOs and CsAMADH1 were investigated by a transient co-expression system in Nicotiana benthamiana. Our data suggest that these three genes regulate the accumulation of GABA in tea by participating in the polyamine degradation pathway and improve the content of GABA in tea to a certain extent. The results will greatly contribute to the production of GABA tea.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
