초록
Nicotine is most familiar to us as a principal pharmacologically active component of cigarettes. This alkaloid is synthesized in the root in response to insect damage and then transported to the aerial parts of tobacco plants. Here I overview enzymes and genes involved in nicotine biosynthesis, and regulatory mechanisms of gene expression involving the NIC regulatory loci and jasmonic acid.
