78,553 genes were expressed in ripening apple fruit and among them 860 genes were differentially expressed between the two maturity stages, with 199 up-regulated and 661 down-regulated.
This conclusion is consistent with the observations that free LnA levels are quite low in ripening apple fruit, while LA levels are substantially higher.
Expression of three of these genes was not significantly changed during the ethylene microarray experiment or during normal fruit ripening (apple EST152541, Genbank acc. CN898978, apple EST248756, Genbank acc. CN910963, apple EST244637, Genbank acc. CN902679).
This and the co-localization of the protein for MdLOX6b with chloroplasts, which are typically rich in LnA, are suggestive of a link between the expression of MdLOX6b and Z-3-hexenal formation in both immature and ripening apple.
