Studies on Production of Alkaloid by Plant Cell Culture of Corydalis remota

In previous paper, we described the induced callus of Corydalis remota contains a significant amount of alkaloids. This study describes an optimal condition to maximize alkaloid production. The suspension cultures maintained alkaloid production ability after fifth subculture and a small amount of alkaloid seemed to be released out of cells. The yields of alkaloid by cultured cells was varied depending on the concentrations of NAA, carbon sources and phosphate ion and depending on the vitamin combinations and concentrations. Biosynthetic precursor and an elicitor treatment also affected the total alkaloid yield of the cultures. The optimal conditions for alkaloid production were as follows: 1) MS basal salt containing 30 g/l of glucose, 1.0 mg/l of NAA, and vitamins of LS medium should be used. 2) The culture should be treated with tyrosine 20 mg/l, and yeast extract 1.5 ml/l after the culture reached a stationary phase of growth. Five alkaloids were isolated from the cultures and they were characterized. The spectral data unambiguously revealed that the isolated compounds were dihydrosanguinarine, protopine. tetrahydropalmatine, allocyptopine and ambinine, respectively.
