双管基因枪介导的基因瞬时表达技术在拟南芥中的应用

基因瞬时表达是植物中研究目标基因功能的常用手段。在模式植物拟南芥(Arabidopsis thaliana)中, 相比原生质体和农杆菌介导的基因异源表达技术, 利用粒子轰击进行基因瞬时表达一直鲜有报道。其主要原因是拟南芥叶型相对较小、基因枪操作相对烦琐以及基因表达效率差异较大。该研究通过优化双管基因枪系统, 在营养生长旺盛的拟南芥莲座叶中实现GFP和GUS基因高效表达。同时, 通过GUS报告基因明确了坏死诱导因子BAX、Avh238和ATR13/Rpp13激发拟南芥细胞坏死的表型。但在本氏烟(Nicotiana benthamiana)中明显诱导细胞坏死的Avrblb1/RB基因对, 在拟南芥中却丧失了诱导细胞坏死的活性。由于双管基因枪系统每次轰击时设置平行对照, 可有效降低转化实验中的样本变异度, 为拟南芥及其突变体研究中准确评价基因功能和高通量筛选目标基因提供新的技术参考。

Hypocotyl-based <Emphasis Type="Italic">Agrobacterium</Emphasis>-mediated transformation of soybean (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Glycine max</Emphasis>) and application for RNA interference

An efficient system of gene transformation is necessary for soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill] functional genomics and gene modification by using RNA interference (RNAi) technology. To establish such system, we improved the conditions of tissue culture and transformation for increasing the frequency of adventitious shoots and decreasing the browning and necrosis of hypocotyls. Adding N(6)-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and silver nitrate in culture medium enhanced the shoot formation on hypocotyls. BAP increased the frequency of the hypocotyls containing adventitious shoots, while silver nitrate increased the number of shoots on the hypocotyls. As a result, the number of adventitious shoots on hypocotyls cultured in medium containing both BAP and silver nitrate was 5-fold higher than the controls. Adding antioxidants in co-cultivation medium resulted in a significant decrease in occurrence of browning and necrosis of hypocotyls and increase in levels of beta-Glucuronidase (GUS) gene expression. Histochemical assays showed that the apical meristem of hypocotyls was the "target tissue" for Agrobacterium tumefaciens transformation of soybean. Gene silencing of functional gene by using RNAi technology was carried out under above conditions. A silencing construct containing an inverted-repeat fragment of the GmFAD2 gene was introduced into soybean by using the A. tumefaciens-mediated transformation. Several lines with high oleic acid were obtained, in which mean oleic acid content ranged from 71.5 to 81.9%. Our study demonstrates that this transgenic approach could be efficiently used to improve soybean quality and productivity through functional genomics.

Study on the conditions of Cell Transformation in Astragalus sinicus

The conditions of genetic transformation of cells in Astragalus sinicus were studied. The experimental results showed that Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58 (pKIW 105), when incubated in medium of low pH and low phosphate concentration in presence of acetosyringone could be induced and activated. When the activated bacteria were used to infect A. sinicus, the GUS gene transient expression in the hypocotyl protoplasts of A. sinicus was immediately and remarkably enhanced. This indicated that the vir gene of A. tumefaciens was activated under the above-mentioned incubation conditions which facilitated T-DNA transfer. In PEG-mediated DNA direct transfer, transient expression of GUS gene was promoted by higher pH and higher Ca2+ concentration of fusion medium. In the same experimental condition, expression of GUS gene under the control of MAS-CaMV 35S chimeric promoter was more effective than that under the control of CaMV 35S promoter, and intensity of GUS gene expression was positively correlated with the amount of foreign plasmid DNA in the range of 10--100 μg. Adventitious shoots were induced from cotyledon and hypocotyls explants treated with Agrobacterium turnefaciens strain PGV 2260 (pBI 121) and were subcultured on MS medium containing 50 mg/L kanamycin to select transformants, and then the transformed shoots were rooted. Stable expression of the foreign genes in the transformed plants was confirmed by assay of neomycin phosphotransferase Ⅱ (NPT Ⅱ ) and β-glucuronidase (GUS) activity.     

Agrobacterium mediated transformation of Vigna sesquipedalis Koern (asparagus bean)

Agrobacterium mediated transformation of Vigna sesquipedalis was achieved using cotyledonary node explants prepared from 5 days old seedlings germinated on B5 basal medium, and transformed using Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA101, carrying the phosphinothricin-N-acetyltransferase gene and neomycin-3-phosphotransferase-II gene as selectable markers and GUS gene as a screenable marker. Gene transfer was achieved by inoculation of cotyledonary node explants with a bacterial suspension and a further cocultivation with Agrobacterium suspension for 3 days on B5 basal medium. Only 10% of the explants were transformed with EHA101 and exhibited transient expression of GUS genes, while 2% of shoots exhibited stable integration of genes and developed into plants. Transgenic character of tissues was confirmed by GUS assay and Southern analysis. Histological analysis of GUS gene expression directly after cocultivation revealed a high competence of subepidermal cell layers of cotyledonary node and associated cotyledons for transformation with Agrobacterium.

带内含子卡那霉素抗性基因双元载体构建及烟草转化

农杆菌介导法是植物基因转化的常用方法,然而由于筛选培养基中常用的抗生素头孢霉素和羧苄青霉素具有类植物激素活性,影响外植体的再生和转化频率。将一个植物的内含子插入卡那霉素抗性基因编码区的N端,合成了一个带内含子的卡那霉素抗性基因。构建带该基因的植物双元表达栽体pYP1202并转化烟草,受侵外植体在含卡那霉素50～200mg/L的选择培养基中抗性芽分化频率不受卡那霉素浓度影响,然而具有GUS活性的转化子占分化芽的比例却随着卡那霉素浓度的增加而升高。当培养基中加入500mg/L羧苄青霉素后受侵外植体产生的抗性芽频率比单一的卡那霉素筛选提高近1倍,高达91.4％,然而具GUS活性的转化子占抗性芽的比例仅有26.7％,在200m/L的卡那霉素筛选下,比例升至93.3％。用带内含子卡那霉素抗性基因构建的植物表达载体转化植物可以减少假抗性芽的产生。

Genetic transformation of Robinia pseudoacacia by Agrobacterium tumefaciens

Transgenic Robinia pseudoacacia plants were obtained by Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated gene transfer. Agrobacterium strain LBA4404 harbouring a binary vector that contained the chimeric neomycin phosphotransferase II (NPTII) and beta-glucuronidase (GUS) genes was co-cultivated with hypocotyl segments of in vitro raised seedlings of Robinia. Parameters important for high efficiency regeneration and transformation rates included type of explant, pre-conditioning of explants and appropriate length of co-cultivation period with Agrobacterium. A transformation frequency 16.67% was obtained by 48 hr of pre-conditioning followed by 48 hr of co-cultivation. Transformed tissue was selected by the ability to grow on kanamycin containing medium. Successful regeneration was followed after histochemical GUS assay for the detection of transgenic tissue. This transformation procedure has the potential to expand the range of genetic variation in Robinia.
