高山松及其亲本种油松和云南松DHAR基因的功能分化 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
高山松(Pinus densata)是油松(P. tabulaeformis)与云南松(P. yunnanensis)自然杂交产生的同倍性杂种, 分布于青藏高原东南缘, 占据了油松和云南松两个亲本种都不能正常生长的高海拔地带。为了揭示高山松、油松和云南松脱氢抗坏血酸还原酶(DHAR)基因的组成和功能分化, 分别从高山松、油松和云南松中克隆到2类DHAR基因(DHAR1与DHAR2)。组织表达模式分析表明, 这6个基因在根、韧皮部、叶和芽中均有表达; 通过系统发育分析发现, 高山松在物种形成过程中保留了油松的DHAR1拷贝以及云南松的DHAR2拷贝; 酶学性质分析则表明, 高山松与油松DHAR1蛋白对底物具有相似的催化活性、催化效率、最适pH和热力学稳定性, 但其催化活性比云南松DHAR1蛋白高约300倍。高山松DHAR2蛋白对底物的催化活性和热力学稳定性均高于油松DHAR2蛋白。高山松DHAR基因在生化功能上显示出优于或类似亲本DHAR, 这种优势功能的选择与杂种独特的生态适应性可能有重要的相关性。 相似文献

Plant dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), which re-reduces oxidized ascorbate to maintain an appropriate level of ascorbate, is very important, but no gene or cDNA for plant DHAR has been cloned yet. Here, we describe a cDNA for a rice glutathione-dependent DHAR (designated DHAR1). A recombinant Dhar1p produced in Escherichia coli was functional. The expression sequence tag database suggests that Dhar1p homologs exist in various plants. Furthermore, the rice Dhar1p has a low similarity to rat DHAR, although the rice enzyme has a considerably higher specific activity than the mammalian one. The mRNA level of DHAR1, the protein level of Dhar1p and the DHAR activity in rice seedlings were elevated by high temperature, suggesting the protection role of DHAR at high temperature. 相似文献

Enhanced tolerance to ozone and drought stresses in transgenic tobacco overexpressing dehydroascorbate reductase in cytosol 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Amin Elsadig Eltayeb Naoyoshi Kawano Ghazi Hamid Badawi Hironori Kaminaka Takeshi Sanekata Isao Morishima Toshiyuki Shibahara Shinobu Inanaga Kiyoshi Tanaka 《Physiologia plantarum》2006,127(1):57-65
Ascorbate (vitamin C) is a potent antioxidant protecting plants against oxidative damage imposed by environmental stresses such as ozone and drought. Dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR; EC 1.8.5.1) is one of the two important enzymes functioning in the regeneration of ascorbate (AsA). To examine the protective role of DHAR against oxidative stress, we developed transgenic tobacco plants overexpressing cytosolic DHAR gene from Arabidopsis thaliana . Incorporation of the transgene in the genome of tobacco plants was confirmed by polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot analysis, and its expression was confirmed by Northern and Western blot analyses. These transgenic plants exhibited 2.3–3.1 folds higher DHAR activity and 1.9–2.1 folds higher level of reduced AsA compared with non-transformed control plants. The transgenic plants showed maintained redox status of AsA and exhibited an enhanced tolerance to ozone, drought, salt, and polyethylene glycol stresses in terms of higher net photosynthesis. In this study, we report for the first time that the elevation of AsA level by targeting DHAR overexpression in cytosol properly provides a significantly enhanced oxidative stress tolerance imposed by drought and salt. 相似文献

Enhanced tolerance to oxidative stress in transgenic tobacco plants expressing three antioxidant enzymes in chloroplasts 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The effect of simultaneous expression of genes encoding three antioxidant enzymes, copper zinc superoxide dismutase (CuZnSOD,
EC 1.15.1.1), ascorbate peroxidase (APX, EC 1.11.1.11), and dehydroascorbate (DHA) reductase (DHAR, EC 1.8.5.1), in the chloroplasts
of tobacco plants was investigated under oxidative stress conditions. In previous studies, transgenic tobacco plants expressing
both CuZnSOD and APX in chloroplast (CA plants), or DHAR in chloroplast showed enhanced tolerance to oxidative stresses, such
as paraquat and salt. In this study, in order to develop transgenic plants that were more resistant to oxidative stress, we
introduced the gene encoding DHAR into CA transgenic plants. Mature leaves of transgenic plants expressing all three antioxidant
genes (CAD plants) had approximately 1.6–2.1 times higher DHAR activity, and higher ratios of reduced ascorbate (AsA) to DHA,
and oxidized glutathione (GSSG) to reduced glutathione (GSH) compared to CA plants. CAD plants were more resistant to paraquat-induced
stress, exhibiting only 18.1% reduction in membrane damage relative to CA plants. In addition, seedlings of CAD plants had
enhanced tolerance to NaCI (100 mM) compared to CA plants. These results indicate that the simultaneous expression of multiple
antioxidant enzymes, such as CuZnSOD, APX, and DHAR, in chloroplasts is more effective than single or double expression for
developing transgenic plants with enhanced tolerance to multiple environmental stresses. 相似文献

Dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), which reduces oxidized ascorbate, is important for maintaining an appropriate ascorbate redox state in plant cells. To date, genome-wide molecular characterization of DHARs has only been conducted in bryophytes (Physcomitrella patens) and eudicots (e.g. Arabidopsis thaliana). In this study, to gain a general understanding of the molecular properties and functional divergence of the DHARs in land plants, we further conducted a comprehensive analysis of DHARs from the lycophyte Selaginella moellendorffii, gymnosperm Picea abies and monocot Zea mays. DHARs were present as a small gene family in all of the land plants we examined, with gene numbers ranging from two to four. All the plants contained cytosolic and chloroplastic DHARs, indicating dehydroascorbate (DHA) can be directly reduced in the cytoplasm and chloroplast by DHARs in all the plants. A novel vacuolar DHAR was found in Z. mays, indicating DHA may also be reduced in the vacuole by DHARs in Z. mays. The DHARs within each species showed extensive functional divergence in their gene structures, subcellular localizations, and enzymatic characteristics. This study provides new insights into the molecular characteristics and functional divergence of DHARs in land plants. 相似文献

Ascorbic acid (Asc) is a major antioxidant involved in photoprotection and photosynthetic function in plants. Dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR) catalyzes the regeneration of Asc from its oxidized state and serves as an important regulator of Asc recycling. In this work, we used a molecular biochemical approach to investigate how the efficiency of Asc recycling affects non-photochemical quenching (NPQ). Suppression of DHAR expression resulted in a lower induction of NPQ that correlated with reductions in chlorophyll and xanthophyll pigments, quantum yield of photosystem II, and CO(2) assimilation, whereas the level of reactive oxygen species increased. The quickly reversible component of NPQ decreased and the slowly reversible or irreversible component of NPQ increased following a reduction in DHAR expression. Significant photoinhibition was also observed following exposure to high light. Direct feeding with Asc restored the appropriate induction of NPQ in DHAR-suppressed leaves. In contrast, increasing DHAR expression increased the pool size of xanthophyll and chlorophyll pigments as well as the rate of CO(2) assimilation, particularly at high light intensities, whereas the level of reactive oxygen species was reduced. Leaves with increased DHAR expression experienced less photoinhibition than did wild-type plants following exposure to high light. DHAR activity, therefore, can affect the appropriate induction of NPQ and level of photoprotection during exposure to high light. 相似文献

To analyze the physiological role of dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR, EC 1.8.5.1) catalyzing the reduction of DHA to ascorbate in environmental stress adaptation, T1 transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi) plants expressing a human DHAR gene in chloroplasts were biochemically characterized and tested for responses to various stresses. Fully expanded leaves of transgenic plants had about 2.29 times higher DHAR activity (units/g fresh wt) than non-transgenic (NT) plants. Interestingly, transgenic plants also showed a 1.43 times higher glutathione reductase activity than NT plants. As a result, the ratio of AsA/DHA was changed from 0.21 to 0.48, even though total ascorbate content was not significantly changed. When tobacco leaf discs were subjected to methyl viologen (MV) at 5 mumol/L and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) at 200 mmol/L, transgenic plants showed about a 40% and 25% reduction in membrane damage relative to NT plants, respectively. Furthermore, transgenic seedlings showed enhanced tolerance to low temperature (15 degrees C) and NaCl (100 mmol/L) compared to NT plants. These results suggest that a human derived DHAR properly works for the protection against oxidative stress in plants. 相似文献

Transgenic tomato plants expressing the gene of a chimeric protein (HAV VP1-Fc) consisting of human hepatitis A virus (HAV) VP1 and an Fc antibody fragment have been obtained. Recombinant VP1-Fc protein with a molecular mass of approximately 68 kDa was purified from transgenic tomato plants using Protein A Sepharose affinity chromatography. The recombinant protein elicited production of specific IgG antibodies in the serum after intraperitoneal immunization of BALB/c mice. The antibodies produced by mice against transgenic plant-derived recombinant VP1-Fc most likely recognize epitopes in the HAV viral antigen. Following vaccination with recombinant VP1-Fc protein, expression of IFN-γ and IL-4 were increased in splenocytes at the time of sacrifice. Our findings indicate that transgenic tomato plants can provide a useful system for the production of HAV antigens. 相似文献

Transglutaminases (TGases) catalyze post-translational protein modifications by ε-(γ-glutamyl) links and covalent amide bonds. In plant, this enzyme is poorly studied and only the Zea mays TGase gene (tgz) has been cloned. The tgz had been expressed in Escherichia coli, but the recombinant protein was mainly present in inclusion bodies. Therefore, to obtain active, soluble protein, we optimized its coding sequence according to the codon bias of Pichia pastoris and synthesized the sequence with SOEing-PCR. The optimized fragment was successfully transformed into P. pastoris GS115 by electroporation. The optimal conditions for expression were under a final concentration of 0.5 % methanol and a time-course of 96 h. The synthesized recombinant Zea mays transglutaminase (TGZs) was purified by affinity method, its production was 4.4 mg/L, and the specific activity was 0.889 U/mg under optimal expression condition. Optimal activity for TGZs was observed at 37 °C and a pH of 8.0, respectively. The cross-linking reaction of TGZs to the casein was studied, and the result was same as the reaction of casein by microbial transglutaminase. These results indicated that an effective procedure for expressing and purifying TGZs in P. pastoris GS115 was established. 相似文献

Dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR, EC 1.8.5.1) plays a critical role in the regeneration of l-ascorbic acid (AsA). To date, there is virtually no information on the molecular characteristics of DHAR in kiwifruit, an economically and nutritionally important horticultural crop with remarkably high AsA concentration. Here, we isolated two cDNAs encoding putative DHARs (designated as AcDHAR1 and AcDHAR2) from Actinidia chinensis cv. Hongyang. Both in silico and subcellular localization analyses demonstrated that AcDHAR1 and AcDHAR2 were targeted to cytosol and chloroplast, respectively. The recombinant AcDHAR1 and AcDHAR2 were expressed in Escherichia coli and purified using Ni-affinity chromatography. Enzymatic study shows both of them are thermostable and possess a relatively high affinity to dehydroascorbate with an optimal pH ranging from 6 to 8. In addition, transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants separately expressing either AcDHAR1 or AcDHAR2 were shown to have significantly increased AsA concentration and enhanced tolerance to salinity. The present study suggested that AcDHAR1 and AcDHAR2 may play a protective role in response to environmental stimuli in kiwifruit. 相似文献
