Glucosinolates (GSLs) and cyanogenic glycosides (CGs) fulfil functions in plant defence and have been reported to be anticancer agents. Generally, GSL-containing plants do not produce CG, and vice versa, CG-containing plants do not synthesise GSLs. However, the production of both GSL and CG compounds was observed in Carica papaya. Additionally, several studies found both GSL glucotropaeolin and CG prunasin in papaya leaves. The advancement of genome technologies can be explored to elucidate the gene functions and other molecular discoveries in plants that might relate to GSLs and CGs. This review aims to discuss the complex interplay of the rare events whereby these two compounds (GSL and CG) co-occur in a bifurcation pathway in papaya. To our knowledge, this is the first review that highlights novel GSL and CG genes in papaya. Furthermore, species-specific pathways in papaya are also discussed and comprehensively described. The transcription factors involved in regulating GSL and CG biosynthesis pathways are also discussed, accompanied by relevant bioinformatic approaches that can help discover potential regulatory genes that control the production of prunasin and glucotropaeolin in papaya. |
