Terpenoids are the largest class of natural products and are essential for cell functions in plants and their interactions with the environment. Acetyl-CoA acetyltransferase (AACT, EC2.3.1.9) can catalyze a key initiation step of the mevalonate pathway (MVA) for terpenoid biosynthesis and is modulated by many endogenous and external stimuli. Here, the function and expression regulation activities of AACT in Euphorbia kansui Liou (EkAACT) were reported. Compared with wild-type Arabidopsis, the root length, whole seedling fresh weight and growth morphology of EkAACT-overexpressing plants were slightly improved. The transcription levels of AtAACT, AtMDC, AtMK, AtHMGR, and AtHMGS in the MVA pathway and total triterpenoid accumulation increased significantly in transgenic Arabidopsis. Under NaCl and PEG treatment, EkAACT-overexpressing Arabidopsis showed a higher accumulation of total triterpenoids, higher enzyme activity of peroxidase (POD) and superoxide dismutase (SOD), increased root length and whole seedling fresh weight, and a decrease in the proline content, which indicated that plant tolerance to abiotic stress was enhanced. Thus, AACT, as the first crucial enzyme, plays a major role in the overall regulation of the MVA pathway.
