Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • SbMYB3 transcription factor promotes root-specific flavone biosynthesis in Scutellaria baicalensis.
  • the SbMYB3 transcription factor functions as a transcriptional activator involved in the biosynthesis of RSFs in S. baicalensis.
  • In S. baicalensis hairy roots, RNAi of SbMYB3 reduced the accumulation of baicalin and wogonoside, and SbMYB3 knockout decreased the biosynthesis of baicalein, baicalin, wogonin, and wogonoside, whereas SbMYB3 overexpression enhanced the contents of baicalein, baicalin, wogonin, and wogonoside.
  • Transcript profiling by qRT–PCR demonstrated that SbMYB3 activates SbFNSII-2 expression directly, thus leading to more abundant accumulation of RSFs. This study provides a potential target for metabolic engineering of RSFs.
