黄孢原毛平革菌乙醇脱氢酶基因的克隆和表达

乙醇是黄孢原毛平革菌(Phanerochaete chrysosporium)在限氧培养条件下重要的代谢物之一, 为了更好的理解P. chrysosporium在低氧条件下的代谢机制, 文章从P. chrysosporium中克隆到一个长1071 bp的乙醇脱氢酶基因PCAdh1 cDNA, 该基因编码一个由356个氨基酸组成的蛋白质, 它与其他生物的乙醇脱氢酶的氨基酸序列的相似性很低, 但酶催化活性位点序列却高度保守。将PCAdh1在大肠杆菌中表达, 并获得有酶活性的重组蛋白。纯化的蛋白质用于制备抗体。半定量RT-PCR和Western blot分析结果显示, 在限氧条件的培养过程中, PCAdh1基因在mRNA水平和蛋白水平上都保持相对稳定, 表明该基因的表达是组成型的; 但从菌丝体提取的粗蛋白中的乙醇脱氢酶活性却随着培养时间的增加及氧气含量的持续降低而逐渐升高, 这暗示P. chrysospo-rium中存在其他低氧诱导型乙醇脱氢酶基因的表达。

一氧化氮在启动黄孢原毛平革菌木质素降解酶合成中的作用

[目的]通过了解一氧化氮在启动黄孢原毛平革菌合成木质素过氧化物酶(LiP)中的作用及其作用机制,弄清白腐菌启动次生代谢的调控机制.[方法]以黄孢原毛平革菌原种pc530及突变种pcR5305为研究对象,弄清在不同营养条件下NO含量的动态变化及其与合成LiP之间的关系,再通过添加外源NO供体SNP、NO淬灭剂cPTIO对两菌株合成LiP的影响分析,揭示NO在白腐菌启动合成LiP中的作用和作用机理.[结果]两菌株均能在两种不同营养条件下产生NO,但NO的产生量与菌株及其营养状况有关,富营养使pc530产生NO量低且严重延后,而pcR5305产生NO并不需要营养饥饿激发且产生量显著高于pc530.除了LiP峰值出现时间迟于NO峰值时间外,NO含量与LiP合成呈正相关性;外施SNP对合成LiP有促进作用,但对pcR5305的促进作用没有pc530明显;15 mmol/L cPTIO使黄孢原毛平革菌合成LiP均大为降低,但并没有完全抑制产生LiP.[结论]黄孢原毛平革菌可能通过产生NO启动LiP的合成,但NO并不直接参与或影响合成LiP,NO更可能是作为一种上游的信号分子起作用.除了NO外,可能还有其它与NO有相互促进作用的信号分子也参与了LiP合成的调控.与pc530具有不同的产生NO的机制可能就是pcR5305抗营养阻遏合成木质素降解酶的机理.

Cleaved AFLP (cAFLP), a modified amplified fragment length polymorphism analysis for cotton

In certain plant species including cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. or Gossypium barbadense L.), the level of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) is relatively low, limiting its utilization in the development of genome-wide linkage maps. We propose the use of frequent restriction enzymes in combination with AFLP to cleave the AFLP fragments, called cleaved AFLP analysis (cAFLP). Using four Upland cotton genotypes (G. hirsutum) and three Pima cotton (G. barbadense), we demonstrated that cAFLP generated 67% and 132% more polymorphic markers than AFLP in Upland and Pima cotton, respectively. This resulted in 15.5 and 25.5 polymorphic cAFLP markers per AFLP primer combination, as compared to 9.1 and 11.0 polymorphic AFLP. The cAFLP-based genetic similarity (GS) is generally lower than the AFLP-based GS, even though both marker systems are overall congruent. In some cases, cAFLP can better resolve genetic relationships between genotypes, rendering a higher discriminatory power. Given the high-resolution power of capillary-based DNA sequencing system, we further propose that AFLP and cAFLP amplicons from the same primer combination can be pooled as one sample before electrophoresis. The combination produced an average of 18.5 and 31.0 polymorphic markers per primer pair in Upland and Pima cotton, respectively. Using several restriction enzyme combinations before pre-selective amplification in combination with various frequent 4 bp-cutters or 6 bp-cutters after selective amplification, the pooled AFLP and cAFLP will provide unlimited number of polymorphic markers for genome-wide mapping and fingerprinting.     

The use of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) in the isolation of sex-specific markers

Sex identification is a problem in research and conservation. It can often be solved using a DNA test but this is only an option if a sex-specific marker is available. Such markers can be identified using the amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique. This is usually a taxonomic method, as it produces a DNA fingerprint of 50-100 PCR bands. However, if male and female AFLP products are compared, sex-specific markers are confined to the heterogametic sex and can rapidly be identified. Once a marker is found, AFLP can be used to sex organisms directly or the marker can be sequenced and a standard PCR test designed.     

Population genetics of the yellow fever mosquito in Trinidad: comparisons of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers

Recent development of DNA markers provides powerful tools for population genetic analyses. Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers result from a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based DNA fingerprinting technique that can detect multiple restriction fragments in a single polyacrylamide gel, and thus are potentially useful for population genetic studies. Because AFLP markers have to be analysed as dominant loci in order to estimate population genetic diversity and genetic structure parameters, one must assume that dominant (amplified) alleles are identical in state, recessive (unamplified) alleles are identical in state, AFLP fragments segregate according to Mendelian expectations and that the genotypes of an AFLP locus are in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE). The HWE assumption is untestable for natural populations using dominant markers. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers segregate as codominant alleles, and can therefore be used to test the HWE assumption that is critical for analysing AFLP data. This study examined whether the dominant AFLP markers could provide accurate estimates of genetic variability for the Aedes aegypti mosquito populations of Trinidad, West Indies, by comparing genetic structure parameters using AFLP and RFLP markers. For AFLP markers, we tested a total of five primer combinations and scored 137 putative loci. For RFLP, we examined a total of eight mapped markers that provide a broad coverage of mosquito genome. The estimated average heterozygosity with AFLP markers was similar among the populations (0.39), and the observed average heterozygosity with RFLP markers varied from 0.44 to 0.58. The average FST (standardized among-population genetic variance) estimates were 0.033 for AFLP and 0.063 for RFLP markers. The genotypes at several RFLP loci were not in HWE, suggesting that the assumption critical for analysing AFLP data was invalid for some loci of the mosquito populations in Trinidad. Therefore, the results suggest that, compared with dominant molecular markers, codominant DNA markers provide better estimates of population genetic variability, and offer more statistical power for detecting population genetic structure.     

An improved amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) protocol for discrimination of Listeria isolates

Nine restriction enzyme combinations and 108 different primer combinations were initially tested for suitability for amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis of Listeria monocytogenes; the combination of HindIII and HpyCH4IV showed consistently strong signals on gels, amplified an adequate number of DNA fragments and detected polymorphism among closely related strains based on AscI macrorestriction profiles. AFLP also distinguished between L. monocytogenes, L. innocua, L. ivanovii, L. seeligeri, L. welshimeri and L. grayi species. All Listeria species showed species-specific clusters, with less than 33% similarity between different species. A total of 34 L. monocytogenes strains were characterised by using both AFLP and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE). The results of AFLP analysis of L. monocytogenes strains were in concordance with those obtained by PFGE. Both methods identified 29 different genotypes of L. monocytogenes and had a high discrimination index (> 0.999). By combining the results of AFLP and PFGE, subtype discrimination was further improved. Numerical analysis of both AFLP and PFGE profiles yielded three genomic groups of L. monocytogenes strains. AFLP was found to be faster and less labour-intensive than PFGE. We conclude that the AFLP protocol is a highly discriminatory, reproducible and valuable tool in characterisation of Listeria strains and may also be suitable for Listeria species identification.     

Genetic diversity of Aegiceras corniculatum (Myrsinaceae) revealed by amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)

Aegiceras corniculatum is a cryptoviviparous mangrove tree distributed in the Indo-West Pacific. The genetic structure of 13 populations of A. corniculatum from South China, Malay Peninsula, Sri Lanka, and North Australia, was assessed by amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. Our results showed a relatively high level of genetic variation at the species level (P = 92%, H_E = 0.294 and H_s = 0.331 ± 0.001). The value of G_ST was 0.698, suggesting significant genetic differentiation among populations. At the population level, however, genetic diversity was low (P = 24%, H_E = 0.086 and H_s = 0.127 ± 0.001). When populations were grouped according to geographic regions, i.e., South China, Malay Peninsula and Sri Lanka, it was inferred from analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) that about half the total variation (49%) was accounted for differentiation between regions. A UPGMA dendrogram based on genetic distance also revealed five major clades corresponding to geographical regions within the distribution of A. corniculatum, although the precise relationships among the clades were not fully concordant with expected geographical delineations and need further study.     

Genetic diversity and structure of natural Pinus tabulaeformis populations in North China using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)

Chinese pine (Pinus tabulaeformis carr.), endemic to China, is a conifer species with extensive and fragmented distribution in North China. In this study, the genetic diversity and structure of 20 natural populations of this species were investigated using amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers. A total of 445 fragments were revealed with 8 pairs of primers, 379 (85.17%) of which were polymorphic. A moderate level of genetic diversity was detected at the species level (Shannon's information index I = 0.356, Nei's gene diversity H_E = 0.271) and at the population level (I = 0.219, H_E = 0.206). Most of genetic variation was within populations while a considerable level of genetic differentiation was detected (G_ST = 0.352, Ф_ST = 0.304). The high differentiation could be attributed to the complex and fragmented habitats, and a limited gene flow among populations (N_m = 0.572). The Mantel test indicated that there was significant correlation (r = 0.455, P < 0.001) between Nei's genetic distance and geographical distance among all the populations. The results suggested that proper countermeasures should be taken to prevent the habitat further deterioration and maintain the genetic diversity of this species.     

Effect of moxidectin selection on the genetic variation within Cylicocyclus nassatus based on amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)

Cyathostomins are among the most important intestinal nematodes of horses, yet, the literature on the molecular genetics of these worms is scarce. In this study, the technique of amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) was applied to study the genetic diversity as well as to determine the effect of moxidectin selection on the population genetic diversity for Cylicocyclus nassatus, one of the most common cyathostomin species. Genomic DNAs from 30 individual male worms were used from each of two populations: an avermectin-milbemycin (AM)-naive population (Population-S) and a population derived from Population-S following 21 treatments with moxidectin (Population-Mox). Three selective primer pairs were used for each worm, yielding a total of 229 AFLP markers. Calculation of average pair wise Jaccard indices revealed a high degree of genetic variation within both populations using all three primer combinations. In addition, selection by moxidectin during a 3-year period caused a significant decrease in the level of genetic diversity as evidenced by analysis of AFLP markers for two primer combinations but not for the third. A dendrogram of relationships among individuals based on AFLP markers did not show a clear classification of individuals in separate groups. It was concluded that a high degree of genetic intrapopulation variation exists in C. nassatus and that moxidectin selection has a significant effect on the genetic composition of C. nassatus.     

Genetic diversity of the endangered Chinese endemic herb Primulina tabacum (Gesneriaceae) revealed by amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP)

Primulina tabacum Hance, is a critically endangered perennial endemic to limestone area in South China. Genetic variability within and among four extant populations of this species was assessed using AFLP markers. We expected a low genetic diversity level of this narrowly distributed species, but our results revealed that a high level of genetic diversity remains, both at population level (55.5% of markers polymorphic, H _E = 0.220, I _S = 0.321), and at species level (P = 85.6% of markers polymorphic, H _E = 0.339, I _S = 0.495), probably resulting from its refugial history and/or breeding system. High levels of genetic differentiation among populations was apparent based on Nei’s genetic diversity analysis (G _st=0.350). The restricted gene flow between populations is a potential reason for the high genetic differentiation. The population genetic diversity of P. tabacum revealed here has clear implications for conservation and management. To maintain present levels of genetic diversity, in situ conservation of all populations is necessary.     

Estimating genetic diversity of Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes with amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLP)

The extensive natural variation of Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes is being increasingly exploited as a source of variants of genes which control (agronomically) important traits. We have subjected 19 different Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes to an analysis using the anplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) technique in order to estimate their genetic diversity. The genetic diversity was estimated applying the method of Nei and Li (1979) and a modified version of it and using 471 informative polymorphisms. The data obtained revealed that within this small set of ecotypes a group of three ecotypes and a further single ecotype exhibit considerable genetic diversity in comparison to the others. These ecotypes clustered at positions significantly separated from the bulk of the ecotypes in the generated similarity plots. The analysis demonstrated the usefulness of the AFLP method for determinating intraspecies genetic diversity as exemplified with Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes. Results are discussed and compared with data obtained with other methods. Received: 18 June 1999 / Accepted: 28 July 1999     

Genetic variation of Calycophyllum spruceanum in the Peruvian Amazon Basin, revealed by amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis

An understanding of the level, structure and origin of genetic variation within and among populations of tropical trees is essential for devising optimum management strategies for their sustainable utilization and conservation. Here, amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis was used to partition genetic variation within and among nine populations of the predominantly riverine tree, Calycophyllum spruceanum , sampled across a wide geographical range along river tributaries of the Peruvian Amazon Basin. Analysis of molecular variance ( AMOVA ) employed 65 AFLP markers and revealed most variation among individuals within populations (91%), although variation among populations was highly significant ( P < 0.001). Calculation of genetic distances and nested AMOVA indicated a degree of structuring among populations based on geographical proximity, although clustering did not depend on geographical distance alone. No firm evidence was obtained for unidirectional seed dispersal by water playing an important role in determining genetic structure over the geographical range sampled. Implications of data for optimising genetic management of the species are discussed and areas for further study identified.
