Amylostereum areolatum is the main symbiotic fungus of woodwasp (Sirex noctilio) and is an active participant in the large-scale death of Pinus sylvestris. Woodwasps and associated fungi resort to active detoxification mechanisms to overcome the toxicity of host defence chemicals, which consist of a multitude of monoterpenes and diterpenes. Since cytochrome P450 (CYP) is considered to have extensive detoxification capabilities in fungi, 35 CYP genes were identified from A. areolatum by Iso-Seq. Moreover, we analysed the transcriptional levels of 11 chosen CYPs in the mycelia of fungi grown on different carbon sources or sprayed with different terpene mixtures or extracts to explore the relationship between CYPs and utilization of terpenoids or the detoxification capabilities for terpenoids. Molecular modeling and docking were also employed to predict the interaction between the P450 protein structure and substrate. The results showed that the 35 CYPs of A. areolatum belong to 22 families and 12 clans, and all had the typical P450 conserved domains. RT-qPCR revealed that most CYPs were down-regulated with monoterpenes as the sole carbon source and up-regulated with diterpenes. CYPs were induced after spraying with xylem extract, and venom can increase the expression levels of CYPs. Molecular docking predicted that three P450 proteins (CYP5037BM3, CYP5144KC1, and CYP5152T1) bind tightly to diterpenes through hydrogen bonds and π-alkyl interactions, they have a higher binding affinity for diterpenes than for monoterpenes, suggesting that they may preferentially metabolize diterpenes. This indicates that A. areolatum regulates the expression levels of key P450 enzymes through a special response pattern to reduce the toxicity of the chemical defence of the host on itself and its symbiotic insect, Sirex noctilio.
淡黄迷孔菌是树蜂(松树蜂)的主要共生真菌,并且是导致欧洲赤松大规模死亡的一个活跃参与者。树蜂及其相关真菌借助主动解毒机制来克服宿主防御性化学物质的毒性,这些防御性化学物质由多种单萜和二萜组成。由于细胞色素P450(CYP)被认为在真菌中具有广泛的解毒能力,因此通过全长转录组测序从淡黄迷孔菌中鉴定出了35个CYP基因。此外,我们分析了11个选定的CYP在生长于不同碳源上或喷洒了不同萜类混合物或提取物的真菌菌丝体中的转录水平,以探究CYP与萜类利用或萜类解毒能力之间的关系。还采用了分子建模和对接来预测P450蛋白结构与底物之间的相互作用。结果表明,淡黄迷孔菌的35个CYP属于22个家族和12个族,并且都具有典型的P450保守结构域。逆转录定量聚合酶链反应显示,大多数CYP在以单萜为唯一碳源时表达下调,而在以二萜为碳源时表达上调。用木质部提取物喷洒后CYP被诱导,并且毒液可以增加CYP的表达水平。分子对接预测,三种P450蛋白(CYP5037BM3、CYP5144KC1和CYP5152T1)通过氢键和π-烷基相互作用与二萜紧密结合,它们对二萜的结合亲和力高于对单萜的结合亲和力,这表明它们可能优先代谢二萜。这表明淡黄迷孔菌通过一种特殊的响应模式调节关键P450酶的表达水平,以降低宿主对其自身及其共生昆虫松树蜂的化学防御的毒性。
