Abstract: Flavane-3-ol monomers are the precursors of proanthocyanidins (PAs), which play a crucial role in grape resistance. Previous studies showed that UV-C positively regulated leucoanthocyanidin reductase (LAR) enzyme activity to promote the accumulation of total flavane-3-ols in juvenile grape fruit, but its molecular mechanism was still unclear. In this paper, we found that the contents of flavane-3-ol monomers increased dramatically at the early development stage grape fruit after UV-C treatment, and the expression of its related transcription factor VvMYBPA1 was also enhanced significantly. The contents of (−)-epicatechin and (+)-catechin, the expression level of VvLAR1 and VvANR, and the activities of LAR and anthocyanidin reductase (ANR) were improved significantly in the VvMYBPA1 overexpressed grape leaves compared to the empty vector. Both VvMYBPA1 and VvMYC2 could interact with VvWDR1 using bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) and yeast two hybrid (Y2H). Finally, VvMYBPA1 was proven to bind with the promoters of VvLAR1 and VvANR by yeast one hybrid (Y1H). To sum up, we found that the expression of VvMYBPA1 increased in the young stage of grape fruit after UV-C treatment. VvMYBPA1 formed a trimer complex with VvMYC2 and VvWDR1 to regulate the expression of VvLAR1 and VvANR, thus positively promoting the activities of LAR and ANR enzyme, and eventually improved the accumulation of flavane-3-ols in grape fruit.
