Cover Story: In the mint family, leaf-type ferrodoxin (Fd I) and two root-type ferredoxin isoforms (Fd II and Fd III) are known. These are associated with a leaf-type (L-FNR) or root-type (R-FNR) isoform of ferredoxin NADP+ reductase. The Fd II gene is expressed very highly in metabolically active glandular trichomes (GTs), whereas Fd III is expressed at low levels in both roots and GTs. We provide evidence that high transcript levels of Fd II, and no differences in the biochemical properties of the encoded enzyme when compared to those of Fd III, are associated with high flux through the monoterpenoid pathway in peppermint GTs.
