High-Molecular-Weight Glutenin Subunit Genesin in Decaploid Agropyron elongatum

Seven genes encoding glutenin subunits that present in Agropyron elongatum (Host) Nevski were cloned by PCR analysis and named AgeloG1 to AgeloG7. The complete open reading frames (ORFs) of the seven genes were amplified with primers special for high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutenin subunit genes and subsequently cloned and sequenced. Five of them were completely sequenced, and the other two (AgeloG1 and AgeloG4) were sequenced at the two ends only. Comparison of amino acid sequences suggested that the primary structure of the subunits encoded by the seven genes was very similar to that of y-type HMW glutenin subunits published from wheat, though four of them (AgeloG4, AgeloG5, AgeloG6 and AgeloG7) were shorter than 1.8 kb. Phylogenetic analysis of the five completely sequenced genes and those subunit genes of Triticum aestivum L. (AABBDD), Aegilops tauschii Coss. (DD), Aegilops caudata L. (CC), Secale cereale L. (RR) and Aegilops umbellulata Zhuk. (UU) indicated that the AgeloG2 was most closely related to 1Dy; the AgeloG3 was to 1By; the AgeloG5, AgeloG6 and AgeloG7 were to 1Ay.     

The gene space in wheat: the complete γ-gliadin gene family from the wheat cultivar Chinese Spring

The complete set of unique γ-gliadin genes is described for the wheat cultivar Chinese Spring using a combination of expressed sequence tag (EST) and Roche 454 DNA sequences. Assemblies of Chinese Spring ESTs yielded 11 different γ-gliadin gene sequences. Two of the sequences encode identical polypeptides and are assumed to be the result of a recent gene duplication. One gene has a 3′ coding mutation that changes the reading frame in the final eight codons. A second assembly of Chinese Spring γ-gliadin sequences was generated using Roche 454 total genomic DNA sequences. The 454 assembly confirmed the same 11 active genes as the EST assembly plus two pseudogenes not represented by ESTs. These 13 γ-gliadin sequences represent the complete unique set of γ-gliadin genes for cv Chinese Spring, although not ruled out are additional genes that are exact duplications of these 13 genes. A comparison with the ESTs of two other hexaploid cultivars (Butte 86 and Recital) finds that the most active genes are present in all three cultivars, with exceptions likely due to too few ESTs for detection in Butte 86 and Recital. A comparison of the numbers of ESTs per gene indicates differential levels of expression within the γ-gliadin gene family. Genome assignments were made for 6 of the 13 Chinese Spring γ-gliadin genes, i.e., one assignment from a match to two γ-gliadin genes found within a tetraploid wheat A genome BAC and four genes that match four distinct γ-gliadin sequences assembled from Roche 454 sequences from Aegilops tauschii, the hexaploid wheat D-genome ancestor.     

高冰草中高分子量麦谷蛋白亚基的编码基因

通过SDS-PAGE法分析了高冰草(Agropyron elongatum (Host) Nevski)种子麦谷蛋白亚基,发现高冰草的麦谷蛋白亚基种类比普通小麦更加丰富。通过基因组PCR法用高分子量麦谷蛋白亚基基因的特异引物从高冰草核基因组中分离出了7条麦谷蛋白亚基的全编码序列,分别命名为AgeloG1~AgeloG7。其中的5条已进行全序列测定,对AgeloG1和AgeloG4进行了末端测序。尽管其中的4条基因的编码序列(AgeloG4, AgeloG5, AgeloG6和AgeloG7)小于1.8 kb,但是对从克隆到的序列推导出的氨基酸序列与已经发表的小麦高分子量麦谷蛋白亚基序列进行对比分析发现,这些亚基与来自小麦的高分子量麦谷蛋白亚基具有很高的同源性。并且对信号肽、N-、C-末端的氨基酸序列分析显示,这7条序列编码的亚基皆为y-型亚基。用5条全部测序的编码序列与普通小麦的A、B、D、粗山羊草的D、圆柱山羊草的C、伞穗山羊草的U、黑麦的R染色体的编码高分子量麦谷蛋白的序列进行了聚类分析。表明,AgeloG2与小麦1Dy, AgeloG3与小麦1By, AgeloG5、AgeloG6和AgeloG7与小麦1Ay在起源和进化上有较高的相似性。     

Development of chromosome 6D-specific markers for α-gliadin genes and their use in assessing dynamic changes at the Gli-2 loci

To develop chromosome 6D-specific point mutation (PM) markers for α-gliadin genes, 79 α-gliadin sequences cloned from Aegilops tauschii and another 40 α-gliadin genes with known chromosome locations were used in multi-sequence alignment and phylogenic analysis. Additional multiple alignment adjustments were performed manually to facilitate discovery of putative chromosome 6D-specific point mutations. A total of 85 PM primers were designed to detect 68 candidate chromosome 6D-specific point mutations. Experimental tests revealed 11 chromosome 6D-specific PM markers by using genomic DNA from homoeologous group 6 nullisomic–tetrasomic lines of Chinese Spring and putative diploid and tetraploid ancestors of hexaploid wheat as PCR templates. Detection of PM markers in one synthetic hexaploid wheat and its parental lines indicated that some α-gliadin genes were lost from Gli-2 loci during the formation of hexaploid wheat by amphidiploidization of the genomes of Triticum turgidum and Ae. tauschii. Detection of these PM markers in Ae. tauschii, T. aestivum and its four subspecies indicated that at least two genetically distinct sources of Ae. tauschii contributed germplasm to the D genome of T. aestivum.     

灰飞虱海藻糖酶基因的克隆及RNA干扰效应

RNA干扰（RNAi）不但可以用于研究基因的功能, 还可以通过沉默靶标基因干扰特定的生命过程。因此, 通过深入研究, 发掘高效专一性靶基因和RNAi技术, 有可能开辟针对性的害虫RNAi防控新途径。本研究通过灰飞虱Laodelphax striatellus转录组数据分析并结合RACE技术, 克隆了灰飞虱两种海藻糖酶的全长基因, 分别命名为LSTre-1和LSTre-2, 其GenBank登录号分别为JQ027050和JQ027051。它们均具有海藻糖酶基因的典型特征, 与已报道的其他昆虫的海藻糖酶基因具有很高的相似性, 并表现出一定的虫种亲缘关系。其中LSTre-1为水溶性海藻糖酶基因, 全长2 042 bp, 开放阅读框编码602个氨基酸, 前端有25个氨基酸的信号肽, 但无跨膜结构域; LSTre-2为膜结合型海藻糖酶基因, 全长2 619 bp, 开放阅读框编码618个氨基酸, 前端有26个氨基酸的信号肽, 有2个疏水性跨膜结构域。利用喂食法研究2种海藻糖酶基因dsRNA对灰飞虱的致死效应, 发现靶向水溶性酶基因的干扰效应略高于靶向膜结合型的, 但两种海藻糖酶基因的dsRNA都可以显著抑制灰飞虱海藻糖酶基因的表达, 降低其活力, 还能显著抑制试虫的生长, 大幅增加试虫死亡率。 结果提示, 通过适宜途径干扰海藻糖酶基因可以开发防治灰飞虱的新途径。     

Characterization of two novel γ-gliadin genes encoded by K genome of Crithopsis delileana and evolution analysis with those from Triticeae

By acid polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (A-PAGE) analysis, it was indicated that the electrophoresis mobility of gliadins from Crithopsis delileana (Schult) Roshev (2n=2x=14, KK) had obvious difference with those from common wheat in α, γ and ω region. Using homologous primers, two γ-gliadin genes (gli-Kr1 and gli-Kr2) were isolated from C. delileana, which had been deposited in the GenBank under accession numbers EU283818 and EU283821, respectively. Two γ -gliadin genes of C. delileana had the similar primary structures to the corresponding gene sequences from other wheat related species. The differences were mainly resulted from substitutions, insertions and deletions involving single amino acid residues or motifs of γ-gliadins. The repetitive domains of gli-Kr1 and gli-Kr2 from C. delileana are shorter than most of other sequences. By the alignment of γ-gliadin genes from A, B, D, A^m, A^u, S, S^l, S^sh, S^s and S^b genomes of Triticum and Aegilops, R genome of Secale (γ-secalin), Ee genome of Lophopyrum and K genome of Crithopsis in Triticeae, phylogenetic analysis indicated that two γ-gliadin genes of C. delileana could be clustered together with a γ-gliadin genefrom Ssh genome of Aegilops by an interior paralleled branch. It was the first time that the γ-gliadin genes encoded by K genome of C. delileana were characterized. These could offer precious information for better understanding the qualities associated with gliadins, the response in coeliac disease and studying the evolutionary relationship of gliadins in Triticeae.
