Activities of some key enzymes of carbon metabolism sucrose synthase, acid and alkaline invertase, phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase, malic enzyme and isocitrate dehydrogenase were investigated in relation to the carbohydrate status in lentil pods. Sucrose remained the dominant soluble sugar in the pod wall and seed, with hexoses (glucose and fructose) present at significantly lower levels. Sucrose synthase is the predominant sucrolytic enzyme in the developing seeds of lentil (Lens culinaris L.). Acid invertase was associated with pod elongation and showed little activity in seeds. Sucrose breakdown was dominated by alkaline invertase during the development of podwall, while both the sucrose synthase and alkaline invertase were active in the branch of inflorescence. A substantial increase of sucrolytic enzymes was observed at the time of maximum seed filling stage (10–20 DAF) in lentil seed. The pattern of activity of sucrose synthase highly paralleled the phase of rapid seed filling and therefore, can be correlated with seed sink strength. It seems likely that the fruiting structures of lentil utilize phosphoenol pyruvate carboxylase for recapturing respired carbon dioxide. Higher activities of isocitrate dehydrogenase and malic enzyme in the seed at the time of rapid seed filling could be effectively linked to the deposition of protein reserves.  相似文献

The patterns of accumulation of three classes of legumin mRNA from Pisum sativum have been followed through seed development by cell-free translation and hybridization to complementary DNAs. Maximum amounts of mRNA were found at 19 days after flowering (DAF) for two classes and at 24 DAF for the third class. The proportions of the three classes varied through development: the RNA species which was 40% of the total legumin mRNA at 14 DAF represented 15–20% of the total at 25–27 DAF, whereas a second mRNA species represented approx. 30% and 70% at the same stages, respectively. Based on these results, some deductions about the possible contribution of individual genes within classes are made.Abbreviations cDNA complementary DNA - DAF days after flowering - IgG immunoglobulin G - SSC standard saline citrate (0.15 M NaCl, 0.015 M trisodium citrate)  相似文献

The activities of sucrolytic enzymes viz. sucrose synthase and invertases were compared in developing pods of two genotypes of lentil differing in seed weight. Biomass accumulation of both the podwall and seed of ‘large’ genotype was higher during development as compared to the ‘small’ genotype. High activity of acid invertase together with prolonged activity of alkaline invertase in podwall of ‘large’ genotype may lead to longer cell division phase resulting in its larger size and biomass. Greater biomass of podwall could be responsible for providing more reserves for the developing seed hence determining its size. Higher alkaline invertase activity in ‘large’ seed from 15–20 DAF can be correlated to the sustained sucrolytic conditions for producing more cells required for its larger size. Increased levels of sucrose synthase in ‘large’ seed especially during maturation phase suggest the role of this enzyme in enhancing the seed sink strength.  相似文献

蔗糖合酶(SuSy)是植物蔗糖代谢关键酶之一,该研究利用反向遗传学手段,采用RNAi技术抑制拟南芥中AtSUS3基因的表达,测定纯系转基因植株的抽苔率,并对酶活性、糖含量等指标以及糖代谢相关基因的表达进行了检测,探讨SuSy在植物发育中的作用。结果显示:(1)转基因拟南芥的抽苔平均早于野生型植株2~3d,且优先3~4d完成抽苔。(2)开花后生长天数对角果蔗糖和葡萄糖含量有显著影响,而对果糖含量影响不显著;开花后5d时,野生型株系的葡萄糖含量显著高于转基因株系SUS3-2,至15d时,两种转基因株系葡萄糖含量均显著低于野生型株系。(3)开花后生长天数对SuSy、SPS、INV的活性均有显著影响,随开花时间延长,野生型株系SuSy活性显著低于转基因株系,而SPS和INV则相反。(4)AtSUS3基因沉默对其他糖代谢基因有不同程度的影响,开花后5d时,转基因植株的角果中AtCesA1、AtCesA7和AtCINV1的表达量较野生型都有所增加;开花后15d时,转基因植株的角果中AtCesA1、AtCesA7的表达量较野生型高,而AtCINV、AtCwINV的表达量比野生型低。研究表明,拟南芥AtSUS3基因沉默后,在正常生长条件下未造成植株发育异常,同时还可能通过同源家族中其他SuSy的表达水平增加,促进了该酶及糖代谢相关基因整体水平的增加,有助于角果成熟。  相似文献

磷酸蔗糖合酶(sucrose phosphate synthase,SPS)是植物中蔗糖合成的主要限速酶,影响植物的生长发育和果实中蔗糖的含量。为探明苹果中SPS基因家族特性及其在蔗糖合成中的作用,该研究从苹果基因组中分离了MdSPS家族基因,分析了它们的进化关系以及mRNA表达特性与酶活性和蔗糖含量的关系。结果显示:(1)在苹果基因组中有8个SPS家族基因表达,它们分别属于双子叶植物的3个SPS亚家族。(2)荧光定量PCR分析显示,苹果C类的MdSPS6基因和A类的MdSPS1a/b基因是苹果中表达丰度最高的SPS基因成员,其中MdSPS6在苹果成熟果中表达丰度最高,其次是成熟叶片,而MdSPS1a/b在不积累蔗糖的幼果中表达丰度最高。(3)在果实发育过程中,除MdSPS1a/b之外,其它5个苹果MdSPS家族基因均随果实的生长表达丰度增加,与SPS活性和蔗糖含量明显呈正相关关系。研究表明,C类家族MdSPS6是苹果果实发育后期和叶片中蔗糖合成的主要SPS基因。  相似文献

The presence of sucrose and the enzymes related to sucrose metabolism, i.e. sucrose synthase (SS) (UDP-glucose: D-fructose-2-glucosyl transferase, EC 2.4.1.13), sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) (UDP-glucose: D-fructose-6-phosphate-2-glucosyl transferase, EC 2.4.1.14) and invertase (β-D-fructofuranoside fructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) was demonstrated in Prototheca zopfii, a colorless alga. The levels of enzyme activities were lower than those obtained in Chlorella vulgaris, which is generally considered the photosynthetic counterpart of P. zopfii. Whem enzyme activities were measured in bleached cells of C. vulgaris, the levels were of the same order than those found in P. zopfii. These results would indicate that the sucrose metabolizing enzymes are not related to the algae ability to carry on photosynthesis.  相似文献

A full-length cDNA encoding sucrose synthase was isolated from the tropical epiphytic CAM orchid Mokara Yellow. The cDNA is 2748bp in length containing an open reading frame of 2447bp encoding 816 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 93.1 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence of M. Yellow sucrose synthase (Msus1) shares more than 80% identity with those from other monocotyledonous plants. The sucrose synthase gene was demonstrated to encode a functional sucrose synthase protein by expression as recombinant protein in Escherichia coli. Northern blot analysis showed that the expression pattern of Msus1 mRNA is tissue specific with highest levels in strong sinks such as expanding leaves and root tips, but not detectable in mature leaves and flowers. Incubation with sugars resulted in a significant increase in the steady-state Msus1 mRNA levels in shoots of seedlings.  相似文献
