Cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYP450s) and their auxiliary cytochrome P450 reductases (CPRs) are important and commonly involved in the biosynthesis of camptothecin (CPT). To better understand the possible functions of CPRs in planta, we first isolated two CaCPRs genes from Camptotheca acuminata. Sequence analysis revealed the presence of common conserved FMN-, FAD- and NADPH-binding motifs in putative CaCPR1/CaCPR2 proteins. The two CaCPR paralogs were assigned to the Class 1 and Class II of CPRs, respectively, according to phylogenetic tree. The recombinant CrCYP72-CaCPR1 and CrCYP72-CaCPR2 enzymes and their substrate bio-conversion rates of 23.09% and 35.23% demonstrated that both CaCPRs could support the enzyme activities of CrSLS1. Gene silencing of CaCPRs by VIGS led to downregulation of CaCPR1/CaCPR2 expression by 50-67%, accompanied with 10-15% slight decrease and 57-63% dramatic reduction for CaCPR1 and CaCPR2 individually in CPT accumulations. Moreover, CaCPR1/CaCPR2 displayed almost omnipresent expression patterns across Camptotheca tissues. While in comparison to constitutive expression of CaCPR1 gene, CaCPR2 and CYP450 genes were all dramatically phytohormone-induced expressed in leaves which were main tissues for isoprenoid and CPT biosynthesis. Our results suggested that, in Camptotheca seedlings, CaCPR2 had a distinct function from CaCPR1 that was clearly involved in the inducible specialized metabolism for CPT biosynthesis.
