They contribute to pathogen defence but are toxic to humans and considered as anti-nutritional compounds. Here we show that GLYCOALKALOID METABOLISM 9 (GAME9), an APETALA2/Ethylene Response Factor, related to regulators of alkaloid production in tobacco and Catharanthus roseus, controls SGA biosynthesis. GAME9 knockdown and overexpression in tomato and potato alters expression of SGAs and upstream mevalonate pathway genes including the cholesterol biosynthesis gene STEROL SIDE CHAIN REDUCTASE 2 (SSR2). Levels of SGAs, C24-alkylsterols and the upstream mevalonate and cholesterol pathways intermediates are modified in these plants. Delta(7)-STEROL-C5(6)-DESATURASE (C5-SD) in the hitherto unresolved cholesterol pathway is a direct target of GAME9. Transactivation and promoter-binding assays show that GAME9 exerts its activity either directly or cooperatively with the SlMYC2 transcription factor as in the case of the C5-SD gene promoter. Our findings provide insight into the regulation of SGA biosynthesis and means for manipulating these metabolites in crops.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;Foreign&lt;/p&gt;</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">11.329</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cardenas, Pablo D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sonawane, Prashant D.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Heinig, Uwe</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Jozwiak, Adam</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Panda, Sayantan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Abebie, Bekele</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kazachkova, Yana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pliner, Margarita</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Unger, Tamar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Wolf, Dalia</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ofner, Itai</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Vilaprinyo, Ester</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Meir, Sagit</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Davydov, Olga</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gal-On, Amit</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Burdman, Saul</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Giri, Ashok</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Zamir, Dani</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Scherf, Tali</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Szymanski, Jedrzej</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rogachev, Ilana</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Aharoni, Asaph</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pathways to defense metabolites and evading fruit bitterness in genus Solanum evolved through 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Nature Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2019</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NOV</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5169</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The genus Solanum comprises three food crops (potato, tomato, and eggplant), which are consumed on daily basis worldwide and also producers of notorious anti-nutritional steroidal glycoalkaloids (SGAs). Hydroxylated SGAs (i.e. leptinines) serve as precursors for leptines that act as defenses against Colorado Potato Beetle (Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say), an important pest of potato worldwide. However, SGA hydroxylating enzymes remain unknown. Here, we discover that 2-OXOGLUTARATE-DEPENDENT-DIOXYGENASE (2-ODD) enzymes catalyze SGA-hydroxylation across various Solanum species. In contrast to cultivated potato, Solanum chacoense, a widespread wild potato species, has evolved a 2-ODD enzyme leading to the formation of leptinines. Furthermore, we find a related 2-ODD in tomato that catalyzes the hydroxylation of the bitter a-tomatine to hydroxytomatine, the first committed step in the chemical shift towards downstream ripening-associated non-bitter SGAs (e.g. esculeoside A). This 2-ODD enzyme prevents bitterness in ripe tomato fruit consumed today which otherwise would remain unpleasant in taste and more toxic.&lt;/p&gt;
