Abstract

<p>Plant hormone (+)-7-iso-jasmonoyl-l-isoleucine (JA-Ile) and their analogues are collectively called jasmonates. Jasmonates are synthesized when plants are attacked by external enemies or exposed to environmental changes. Jasmonates induce the expression of various defense-related genes including plant specialized metabolite production such as defense substances, thereby triggering various defense response reactions. JA-Ile, which regulates biotic interactions and plant specialized metabolite production, is the most attractive plant hormone for natural product chemists. The molecular mechanism of jasmonate signaling has developed rapidly since the identification of the COI1-JAZ co-receptor in 2007, and has changed dramatically in the last decade. In particular, there has been a series of major discoveries in the regulation of signal transduction, and research on the regulation of signal transduction has been performed extensively in recent years. In this paper, we summarize the recent progress on the molecular basis of major jasmonate signaling and its regulation by protein engineering, genetic engineering, and chemical biology.</p>
