DNA甲基化是真核生物一种重要的表观修饰形式。为了探讨谷子基因组DNA胞嘧啶甲基化的水平和模式,以谷子Setaria italica的两个品种朝谷58号和豫谷1号为实验材料,利用Eco RⅠ和HpaⅡ/MspⅠ双酶切建立适合于谷子基因组的甲基化敏感扩增多态性(MSAP)分析体系。结果表明,从100对MSAP选扩引物中,筛选出32对MSAP引物组合,在朝谷58号和豫谷1号中分别扩增产生1 615、1 482条清晰可辨且可重复的DNA条带,其中包括3种类型的甲基化条带,朝谷58号和豫谷1号的基因组中CCGG序列胞嘧啶甲基化水平分别为6.93%和8.77%。这种谷子不同品种间甲基化水平和分布位点的差异为从表观遗传学的角度培育新品种提供了初步的理论依据和参考。 相似文献

DNA甲基化是表观遗传调控的重要机制,在真核生物基因表达调控中发挥重要作用。本研究通过荧光标记的甲基化敏感扩增多态性技术(F-MSAP,fluorescence-labeled methylation-sensitive amplified polymorphism)对二斑叶螨Tetranychus urticae Koch 4个龄期(卵、幼螨、若螨、成螨)基因组DNA中CCGG位点的胞嘧啶甲基化水平和模式进行分析。研究结果显示3种甲基化模式:无甲基化(TypeⅠ),半甲基化(TypeⅡ),全甲基化(TypeⅢ)在4个龄期均有出现,扩增的总甲基化位点共有641个,其中半甲基化率(TypeⅡ)均高于全甲基化率(TypeⅢ),各个龄期的平均总甲基化率(TypeⅡ+TypeⅢ)为16.01%,平均半甲基化率为10.24%,平均全甲基化率为5.77%。F-MSAP分析结果表明不同发育时期的二斑叶螨基因组DNA的甲基化水平和模式存在差异。 相似文献

DNA甲基化是调节植物生长发育,调控逆境基因表达的表观遗传机制之一。该研究采用不同浓度的DNA甲基化抑制剂5-azaC处理耐盐性不同的春小麦种子,分析其对种子萌发及盐胁迫后叶片基因组DNA甲基化的影响,探究DNA甲基化与小麦耐盐性之间的相关性。结果表明:(1)5-azaC显著抑制幼苗根长伸长,降低根系鲜重和干重。(2)甲基化敏感扩增多态性(MSAP)分析发现,单独盐胁迫后甲基化水平上升, 5-azaC预处理材料经盐胁迫后甲基化水平呈下降趋势。(3)盐胁迫后基因组同时发生DNA去甲基化和DNA甲基化。敏盐品种‘新春6号’DNA去甲基化比率上升,DNA甲基化增加的比率下降;耐盐品种‘新春11号’DNA去甲基化比率和DNA甲基化增加的比率均上升,但去甲基化比率大于DNA甲基化增加的比率,说明盐胁迫引起的基因组DNA去甲基化为主,5-azaC预处理提高了盐胁迫下DNA去甲基化的比率。(4)DNA甲基化修饰位点序列分析发现,在核糖体亚基蛋白、蛋白激酶和转座子序列均存在DNA甲基化修饰现象,说明存在多种代谢途径共同参与了盐胁迫调控。 相似文献

DNA甲基化作为动植物体内一种重要的表观遗传修饰形式,在调控基因表达、维持基因组的稳定性等方面发挥重要的生物学作用。固有DNA甲基化水平和模式的变化会导致生物的表型异常甚至死亡。而5-甲基胞嘧啶的水平和模式是由DNA甲基化和去甲基化共同决定的。DNA去甲基化可以分为主动去甲基化与被动去甲基化,而基因组甲基化模式的形成主要依赖于主动去甲基化。本文综述了生物体内DNA主动去甲基化五种潜在机制:DNA转葡糖基酶参与的碱基切除修复途径、脱氨酶参与的碱基切除修复途径、核苷酸切除修复途径、氧化作用去甲基化与水解作用去甲基化。 相似文献

作为细胞内的"动力工厂",线粒体是细胞内进行氧化磷酸化反应和形成ATP的主要场所。传统观点曾认为线粒体缺乏表观遗传机制,但线粒体DNA甲基化酶以及线粒体DNA中5-甲基胞嘧啶与5-羟甲基胞嘧啶的发现推翻了这一论断。在线粒体中,DNA甲基化酶、DNA甲基化模式及DNA羟甲基化模式与核基因组DNA相比均存在较大差异,而外界环境中不同因子的变化也会对线粒体DNA的甲基化状态造成影响。除此之外,线粒体DNA的表观遗传因素还包括线粒体长链非编码RNA、线粒体mi RNA和线粒体DNA结合蛋白。随着研究技术手段的不断完善,将线粒体DNA的甲基化状态作为生物标记的应用将日益广泛,其与基因组表观遗传调控的关联也将得到进一步的揭示。 相似文献

Sequence tagged site (STS) markers for eight resistance genes against Puccinia recondita f. sp. tritici were used to screen a set of near-isogenic lines of wheat cv. Thatcher containing in total 40 different Lr genes and their alleles. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis was carried out by using STS, SCAR and CAPS primers specific for the leaf rust resistance genes Lr1, Lr9, Lr10, Lr19, Lr24, Lr28, Lr37 and Lr47. The STS, CAPS and SCAR markers linked to resistance genes Lr9, Lr10, Lr19, Lr24, Lr37 and Lr47 were found to be reliable in diverse genetic backgrounds. The amplification product of the Lr1 gene marker was detected in the susceptible cv. Thatcher and in all of the near-isogenic lines examined except Lr2a, Lr2b, Lr2c and Lr19. The sequence analysis of PCR products amplified in lines Lr1, Lr10, Lr28 and in cv. Thatcher indicated that the near-isogenic lines and cv. Thatcher contained in the targeted chromosome region an allele that differed from the original alleles corresponding to Lr1/6*Thatcher (TLR621) and susceptible Thatcher (TH621). The amplification product specific to the STS marker of the Lr1 gene was amplified in almost all Thatcher near-isogenic lines and in cv. Thatcher because their alleles possessed primer sequences identical to the original allele TLR621. The marker for the Lr28 resistance gene was identified in line Lr28, carrying gene Lr28, and in 21 other near-isogenic lines. The sequencing of PCR products specific to Lr28 and generated in lines Lr1, Lr10 and Lr28 indicated that the lines Lr1, Lr10 and Lr28 are heterozygous in this region. 相似文献

DNA methylation is one of the epigenetic mechanisms regulating gene expression in plants in response to environmental conditions. In this study, analysis of methylation patterns was carried out in order to assess the effect of water stress in two contrasting wheat genotypes using methylation-sensitive amplified polymorphism (MSAP). The results revealed that demethylation was higher in drought-tolerant genotype (C306) as compared to drought-sensitive genotype (HUW468) after experiencing drought stress. Comparisons of different MSAP patterns showed a high percentage of polymorphic bands between tolerant and susceptible wheat genotypes (from 74.79 % at anthesis to 88.89 % at tillering). Furthermore, differential DNA methylation in roots and leaves also revealed tissue-specific methylation of genomic DNA. Interestingly, 54 developmental stage-specific bands and 23 bands that were found contrasting between these two wheat genotypes were detected. Furthermore, a few sites with stable DNA methylation differences were identified between drought-tolerant and drought-sensitive cultivars, thus providing genotype-specific epigenetic markers. These results not only provide data on differences in DNA methylation changes but also contribute to dissection of molecular mechanisms of drought response and tolerance in wheat. 相似文献

Social insects are key examples of organisms that display polyphenism. Their genomes encode instructions for the development
of multiple phenotypes, known as castes, which typically have highly divergent morphology, physiology and behaviour. DNA methylation,
an epigenetic mechanism associated with modulation of gene expression in various eukaryotes, has recently been shown to provide
a key link between environmental cues and caste-specific gene expression in honey bees (Hymenoptera). In termites—a major
social insect group phylogenetically distant from Hymenoptera—the existence of DNA methylation has not, to our knowledge,
been reported to date. Since genes encoding key DNA methylation enzymes are known to be absent in the genomes of a number
of insect species, we sought to test whether termites are able to methylate their DNA, and, if so, whether caste-specific
patterns of DNA methylation exist. We performed methylation-specific amplified fragment length polymorphism on the termite
Coptotermes lacteus, and found evidence for DNA methylation. However, a comparison of methylation levels in different castes did not reveal any
significant differences in methylation levels. The demonstration of DNA methylation in termites sets the stage for future
epigenetic studies in these important social insects. 相似文献

DNA methylation is one of the most important heritable epigenetic modifications of the genome and is involved in the regulation of many cellular processes. Aberrant DNA methylation has been frequently reported to influence gene expression and subsequently cause various human diseases, including cancer. Recent rapid advances in next-generation sequencing technologies have enabled investigators to profile genome methylation patterns at single-base resolution. Remarkably, more than 20 eukaryotic methylomes have been generated thus far, with a majority published since November 2009. Analysis of this vast amount of data has dramatically enriched our knowledge of biological function, conservation and divergence of DNA methylation in eukaryotes. Even so, many specific functions of DNA methylation and their underlying regulatory systems still remain unknown to us. Here, we briefly introduce current approaches for DNA methylation profiling and then systematically review the features of whole genome DNA methylation patterns in eight animals, six plants and five fungi. Our systematic comparison provides new insights into the conservation and divergence of DNA methylation in eukaryotes and their regulation of gene expression. This work aims to summarize the current state of available methylome data and features informatively. 相似文献

An Aegilops umbellulata-derived leaf-rust-resistance gene, Lr9, was tagged with 3 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers, which mapped within 1.8 cM of gene Lr9 located on chromosome 6BL of wheat. The markers were identified in an F2 population segregating for leaf-rust resistance, which was generated from a cross between 2 near-isogenic lines that differed in the alien gene Lr9 in a widely adopted agronomic background of cultivar 'HD 2329'. Disease phenotyping was done in controlled environmental conditions by inoculating the population with the most virulent pathotype, 121 R63-1 of Puccinia triticina. One RAPD marker, S5550, located at a distance of 0.8+/-0.008 cM from the Lr9 locus, was converted to sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker SCS5550. The SCAR marker was validated for its specificity to gene Lr9 against 44 of the 50 known Lr genes and 10 wheat cultivars possessing the gene Lr9. Marker SCS5550 was used with another SCAR marker, SCS73719, previously identified as being linked to gene Lr24 on a segregating F2 population to select for genes Lr9 and Lr24, respectively, demonstrating the utility of the 2 markers in marker-assisted gene pyramiding for leaf-rust resistance in wheat. 相似文献

Methylation of cytosines can mediate epigenetic gene silencing and is the only known DNA modification in eukaryotes. Recent efforts to map DNA methylation across mammalian genomes revealed limited DNA methylation at regulatory regions but widespread methylation in intergenic regions and repeats. This is consistent with the idea that hypermethylation is the default epigenetic state and serves in maintaining genome integrity. DNA methylation patterns at regulatory regions are generally stable, but a minor subset of regulatory regions show variable DNA methylation between cell types, suggesting an additional dynamic component. Such promoter de novo methylation might be involved in the maintenance rather than the initiation of silencing of defined genes during development. How frequently such dynamic methylation occurs, its biological relevance and the pathways involved deserve investigation. 相似文献
