LAPs play a fundamental role in cell protein turnover and participate in physiological processes such as defense mechanisms against biotic and abiotic stresses, but little is known about their involvement in fruit physiology. This study aims to identify and characterize genes encoding LAP and evaluate their role during the ripening of pepper (<jats:italic>Capsicum annuum<\/jats:italic> L.) fruits and under a nitric oxide (NO)-enriched environment. Using a data-mining approach of the pepper plant genome and fruit transcriptome (RNA-seq), two <jats:italic>LAP<\/jats:italic> genes, designated <jats:italic>CaLAP1<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>CaLAP2<\/jats:italic>, were identified. The time course expression analysis of these genes during different fruit ripening stages showed that whereas <jats:italic>CaLAP1<\/jats:italic> decreased, <jats:italic>CaLAP2<\/jats:italic> was upregulated. However, under an exogenous NO treatment of fruits, both genes were downregulated. On the contrary, it was shown that during fruit ripening LAP activity increased by 81%. An in vitro assay of the LAP activity in the presence of different modulating compounds including peroxynitrite (ONOO<jats:sup>\u2212<\/jats:sup>), NO donors (<jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>-nitrosoglutathione and nitrosocyteine), reducing agents such as reduced glutathione (GSH), <jats:sc>l<\/jats:sc>-cysteine (<jats:sc>l<\/jats:sc>-Cys), and cyanide triggered a differential response. Thus, peroxynitrite and reducing compounds provoked around 50% inhibition of the LAP activity in green immature fruits, whereas cyanide upregulated it 1.5 folds. To our knowledge, this is the first characterization of LAP in pepper fruits as well as of its regulation by diverse modulating compounds. Based on the capacity of LAP to metabolize dipeptides and tripeptides, it could be hypothesized that the LAP might be involved in the GSH recycling during the ripening process.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s00299-024-03179-x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,11]],"date-time":"2024-03-11T16:02:47Z","timestamp":1710172967000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":8,"title":["Characterization of leucine aminopeptidase (LAP) activity in sweet pepper fruits during ripening and its inhibition by nitration and reducing events"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Mar\u00eda A.","family":"Mu\u00f1oz-Vargas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jorge","family":"Taboada","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Salvador","family":"Gonz\u00e1lez-Gordo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jos\u00e9 M.","family":"Palma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1814-9212","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Francisco J.","family":"Corpas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,3,11]]},"reference":[{"issue":"45","key":"3179_CR2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"25767","DOI":"10.1039\/C8RA02067A","volume":"8","author":"AS Antonio","year":"2018","unstructured":"Antonio AS, Wiedemann LSM, Veiga Junior VF (2018) The genus Capsicum: a phytochemical review of bioactive secondary metabolites.
