Euphorbia helioscopia L. is an herbaceous species of Euphorbia (Euphorbiaceae). As an ancient folk herbal medicine, the most effective medicinal component is terpenoid. Diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase (MDC) is the last rate-limiting enzyme of generating the isopentenyl pyrophosphate precursor of terpenoid in MVA pathway. The gene of MDC was cloned successfully from E. helioscopia, and named EhMDC (accession number: KP995936). The full length cDNA of EhMDC was 1653 bp, and it contained an open reading frame of 1245 bp, a 5′ untranslated region of 184 bp and a 3′ untranslated region of 224 bp. EhMDC contained 415 amino acids. Homologous sequence analysis showed that amino acid sequence of EhMDC had the highest identity of 88% with Ricinus communis MDC. Phylogenetic analysis of EhMDC indicated E. helioscopia, Hevea brasiliensis, R. communis, and Jatropha carcas which all belonged to Euphorbiaceae were classified into one class. Real-time PCR assay demonstrated EhMDC was constitutively expressed in roots, stems and leaves with a similar transcription level. Furthermore, in combination with immunoblot analysis and transmission electron microscopy immunogold labeling after anti-EhMDC antibody preparation, the EhMDC was found to be located in the cisternae of the endoplasmic reticulum, small vacuoles from endoplasmic reticulum and cytoplasm of laticifers. As a result, terpenoid biosynthesis site and accumulation of E. helioscopia laticifers were speculated.
