红莲型水稻细胞质雄性不育花粉总蛋白质初步比较分析

采用固相pH梯度/SDS-PAGE双向电泳对红莲型细胞质雄性不育水稻的不育系(YTA)和保持系(YTB)二核期花粉总蛋白质进行了分离,通过银染显色,获得了分辨率和重复性较好的双向电泳图谱。用PDQuest2DE软件可识别约1500个蛋白质点,其中差异表达的蛋白质点数为120。将其中15个差异点采用基质辅助激光解析电离飞行时间质谱(matrix assisted laser desorption/ionizaton time of flight mass spectrometry,MALDI-TOF-MS)进行了肽质指纹图分析,通过采用Mascot软件对MSDB数据库查询,其中7个蛋白质点得到了鉴定。YTA相对于YTB有部分参与物质和能量代谢的蛋白质缺失或表达量降低,这些蛋白质分别是水稻线粒体H -转运ATPase(H -ATPase)α链、盐诱导型膜联蛋白、线粒体NAD -依赖型苹果酶和磷酸核糖焦磷酸合成酶等。这些蛋白质的表达下调或缺失可能与线粒体提供能量不足而导致的花粉不能正常发育有关。线粒体电压依赖性阴离子通道(VDAC)这一重要蛋白质在YTA中的上调表达有可能与花粉败育过程中细胞的程序性死亡相关。

乙酰辅酶A合成酶家族中保守的色氨酸残基的生化功能（英文）北大核心CSCD

甲烷菌与甲烷八叠球菌是仅有的两种已知利用乙酸盐进行甲烷生成的菌属。稻田以及厌氧的废物分解物是甲烷生物生成的主要来源。甲烷菌在自然界广泛分布,相比甲烷八叠球菌,在低乙酸盐的环境中对乙酸盐仍有高亲和力。在甲烷生成第一步即将乙酸盐转化为乙酰辅酶A的过程中,与甲烷八叠球菌利用乙酸激酶与磷酸转乙酰酶激活途径不同,甲烷菌通过腺嘌呤形成乙酰辅酶A合成酶进行催化。在甲烷菌一属(Methanosaeta concilii)中,共发现5个乙酰辅酶A合成酶的编码基因,其中3种乙酰辅酶A合成酶的生化及酶活特性已被确定。该3种乙酰辅酶A合成酶均以乙酸盐为其最优底物。尽管在短链乙酰辅酶A合成酶家族中,发现酰基底物结合位点高度保守,但乙酰辅酶A合成酶家族的酰基底物范围极为广泛。本研究对甲烷菌中不同种乙酰辅酶A合成酶的酰基底物结合位点的关键氨基酸进行识别与比较,从而对乙酰辅酶A合成酶家族的酶活特性有更全面深入的了解。首先,我们对甲烷菌一属中乙酰辅酶A合成酶4进行生化性质测定。结果表明,该酶无催化一系列酰基底物为酰基辅酶A或其中间产物酰基腺苷酸的活性。通过序列对比发现,嗜热自养甲烷杆菌的乙酰辅酶A合成酶1中高度保守的416位色氨酸残基在甲烷菌一属的乙酰辅酶A合成酶4中被替换成528位苯丙氨酸残基。将甲烷菌一属的乙酰辅酶A合成酶4中的528位苯丙氨酸残基点突变为色氨酸残基后,进行酶学性质测定,未检测到该突变体具有乙酰辅酶A/乙酰腺苷酸合成活性。我们进一步对嗜热自养甲烷杆菌的乙酰辅酶A合成酶1中的416位色氨酸残基点突变为苯丙氨酸残基,酶活性质结果显示,突变酶对于乙酸盐以及丙酸盐作为底物时的活性未有明显差异。然而,以丙酸盐为底物时,释放丙酰腺苷酸中间产物。该结果表明,热自养甲烷杆菌的乙酰辅酶A合成酶1对于底物乙酸盐或丙酸盐的催化作用不甚相同,苯丙氨酸中的苯甲酰环降低该酶保留中间产物丙酰腺苷酸,从而转化为丙酰辅酶A的能力。

探讨红莲型细胞质雄性不育（HL-CMS）水稻不育系‘粤泰A’（‘YTA’）和保持系‘粤泰B’（‘YTB’）中3个腺苷酸转位酶（ANT）基因在三叶期根、茎、叶以及不同发育时期的幼穗中的表达模式。结果表明：ANT1和ANT2在‘YTA’和‘YTB’三叶期的根、茎、叶中的表达量都较高,而在生殖生长不同时期的幼穗中表达量较低。‘YTA’中ANT1在不同时期的幼穗中表达量都较低,而ANT2的表达量到穗生长期II的幼穗才较低。‘YTB’中ANT1在生殖生长的穗生长期III的幼穗有很高的表达。ANT3的表达水平在研究的各组织中的表达都较低,在‘YTB’穗生长期V的幼穗中表达最高。相对于‘YTA’,‘YTB’中只有ANT3在穗生长期III和穗生长期V的幼穗中呈现明显的优势表达;而相对于‘YTB’,‘YTA’中ANT2和ANT3在穗生长期I、ANT2在穗生长期VI幼穗具有明显的优势表达。3个ANTs基因在HL-CMS不育系‘YTA’和保持系‘YTB’不同组织及发育时期的表达模式的差异,暗示它们可能与HL-CMS水稻不育系和保持系的发育调控有关。     

4周中等强度有氧运动诱导大鼠心房肌蛋白质组差异表达的研究

目的：探讨中等强度有氧运动对大鼠心房肌蛋白质组及其基因差异表达的影响,为运动心脏重塑和慢性心血管疾病康复研究提供研究依据。方法：20只雄性SD大鼠按照体重随机配对分为对照组、实验组（n=10）,实验组大鼠每次按照速度24 m·min^-1、持续训练40 min （负荷强度相当于60%~70% VO_2max）,每周训练6 d,持续训练4周中等强度有氧运动。应用双向凝胶电泳技术（2-DE）分离心房肌蛋白质点,串联飞行时间质谱仪技术鉴定电泳结果中表达量上调≥5倍以上,下调至1/5以下的13个备选目标蛋白质点。并对其中6个目标蛋白质用逆转录-聚合酶链式反应（RT-PCR）技术检测其mRNA。结果：通过软件分析,实验组与对照组比较,其中表达量下调至20%以下的点8个,上调5倍及以上点有5个,质谱鉴定分析其中的13个蛋白质点,最终鉴定出8种蛋白质和一个分子量为54 KDa的未知蛋白,包括：丙酮酸脱氢酶E1α1、线粒体乌头酸水合酶、蛋白质二硫键异构酶A3、甲基丙二酸半醛脱氢酶、线粒体二氢硫辛酸脱氢酶、异戊酰辅酶A脱氢酶、谷胱甘肽合成酶、丝裂素活化蛋白激酶3等。RT-PCR检测结果表明,与对照组相比,4周中等强度有氧运动后,大鼠心房肌中甲基丙二酸半醛脱氢酶的mRNA表达量降低（P﹤0.05）,线粒体二氢硫辛酸脱氢酶、蛋白质二硫键异构酶A3、线粒体乌头酸水合酶、谷胱甘肽合成酶的mRNA表达量降低（P>0.05）;异戊烯辅酶A脱氢酶的mRNA表达量增高（P>0.05）,表明mRNA表达水平与质谱鉴定结果的变化不完全一致。结论：4周的中等强度有氧运动诱导大鼠心房肌蛋白质组发生显著变化,有13个明显变化的目标蛋白,多数为能量物质代谢酶,这些目标蛋白质的变化与其mRNA表达量的变化并不完全一致,表明中等强度运动可能影响这些目标蛋白质上游基因转录的调控,也可影响下游翻译﹑修饰等的调控,导致表达的差异变化。

细胞质雄性不育水稻幼穗和花药的呼吸酶活性研究

研究珍汕97A和珍汕97B的雌雄蕊原基形成期、花粉母细胞形成期和花粉母细胞减数分裂期的幼穗及单核期、二核期和三核期的花药中呼吸代谢三羧酸循环（TCA）的苹果酸脱氢酶（MDH）和异柠檬酸脱氢酶（IDH）及戊糖途径（PPP）的磷酸葡萄糖脱氢酶（G6PDH）、磷酸葡萄糖酸脱氢酶（6PGDH）和5一磷酸核糖异构酶（RSPI）的活性。结果表明：可育花药的5种酶活性皆高于同期不育花药;而幼穗中,TCA途径中的MDH和IDH在不育系与保持系之间无差异,PPP途径的G6PDH和6PGDH及R5PI则保持系高于不育系。这说明不育系中PPP发生的变化早于TCA途径,PPP途径的改变可能与小孢子败育有着更为直接的关系。     

Quantitative Proteomic Analysis of CMS-Related Changes in Honglian CMS Rice Anther

Honglian (HL) cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) is one of the rice CMS types and has been widely used in hybrid rice production in China. The CMS line (Yuetai A, YTA) has a Yuetai B (maintainer line, YTB) nuclear genome, but has a rearranged mitochondrial (mt) genome consisting of Yuetai B. The fertility of hybrid (HL-6) was restored by restorer gene in nuclear genome of restorer line (9311). We used isotope-code affinity tag (ICAT) technology to perform the protein profiling of uninucleate stage rice anther and identify the CMS-HL related proteins. Two separate ICAT analyses were performed in this study: (1) anthers from YTA versus anthers from YTB, and (2) anthers from YTA versus anthers from HL-6. Based on the two analyses, a total of 97 unique proteins were identified and quantified in uninucleate stage rice anther under the error rate of less than 10%, of which eight proteins showed abundance changes of at least twofold between YTA and YTB. Triosephosphate isomerase, fructokinase II, DNA-binding protein GBP16 and ribosomal protein L3B were over-expressed in YTB, while oligopeptide transporter, floral organ regulator 1, kinase and S-adenosyl-l-methionine synthetase were over-expressed in YTA. Reduction of the proteins associated with energy production and lesser ATP equivalents detected in CMS anther indicated that the low level of energy production played an important role in inducing CMS-HL.     

Differential proteomic studies of the genic male-sterile line and fertile line anthers of upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.)

Pollen development is disturbed in the microspore development stage of the double-recessive nuclear male-sterile line ms5ms6 (Gossypium hirsutum L.). This study aimed to identify differentially expressed anther proteins and their potential roles in pollen development and male sterility. We compared the proteomes of sterile and fertile anthers of the double recessive nuclear male-sterile line ms5ms6. Approximately 1,390 protein spots were detected by two-dimensional differential gel electrophoresis. Proteins with altered accumulation levels in sterile anthers compared with fertile anthers were identified by mass spectrometry and the NCBInr and Viridiplantae EST databases. Down-regulated proteins in the sterile anthers included cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase 1 and glutaminyl-tRNA synthetase (glutamine-tRNA ligase). Several carbohydrate metabolism- and photosynthesis-related enzymes were also present at lower levels in the mutant anthers. By contrast, ATP-dependent RNA helicase eIF4A-13, NADH dehydrogenase subunit 1, enolase, gibberellin 20-oxidase, gibberellin 3-hydroxylase 1, alcohol dehydrogenase 2d, 3-ketoacyl-CoA synthase, and trehalose 6-phosphate synthase were expressed at higher levels in sterile anthers than in fertile anthers. The regulation of upland cotton pollen development involves a complex network of differentially expressed genes. This study provides the foundation for future investigations of gene function in upland cotton pollen development and male sterility.     

Low temperature treatment at the young microspore stage induces protein changes in rice anthers

Male reproductive development in rice is very sensitive to various forms of environmental stresses including low temperature. A few days of cold treatment (<20 degrees C) at the young microspore stage induce severe pollen sterility and thus large grain yield reductions. To investigate this phenomenon, anther proteins at the early stages of microspore development, with or without cold treatment at 12 degrees C, were extracted, separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and compared. The cold-sensitive cultivar Doongara and the relatively cold-tolerant cultivar HSC55 were used. The abundance of 37 anther proteins was changed more than 2-fold after 1, 2, and 4 days of cold treatment in cv. Doongara. Among them, one protein was newly induced, 32 protein spots were up-regulated, and four protein spots were down-regulated. Of these 37 protein spots, we identified two anther-specific proteins (putative lipid transfer protein and Osg6B) and a calreticulin that were down-regulated and a cystine synthase, a beta-6 subunit of the 20 S proteasome, an H protein of the glycine cleavage system, cytochrome c oxidase subunit VB, an osmotin protein homologue, a putative 6-phosphogluconolactonase, a putative adenylate kinase, a putative cysteine proteinase inhibitor, ribosomal protein S12E, a caffeoyl-CoA O-methyltransferase, and a monodehydroascorbate reductase that were up-regulated. Identification of these proteins is available upon request. Accumulation of these proteins did not vary greatly after cold treatment in panicles of cv. Doongara or in the anthers of the cv. HSC55. The newly induced protein named Oryza sativa cold-induced anther protein (OsCIA) was identified as an unknown protein. The OsCIA protein was detected in panicles, leaves, and seedling tissues under normal growth conditions. Quantitative real time RT-PCR analysis of OsCIA mRNA expression showed no significant change between low temperature-treated and untreated plants. A possible regulatory role for the newly induced protein is proposed.

Sporophytic control of anther development and male fertility by glucose-6-phosphate/phosphate translocator 1(OsGPT1) in rice

Coordination between the sporophytic tissue and the gametic pollen within anthers is tightly controlled to achieve the optimal pollen fitness. Glucose-6-phosphate/phosphate translocator(GPT) transports glucose-6-phosphate, a key precursor of starch and/or fatty acid biosynthesis, into plastids. Here, we report the functional characterization of Os GPT1 in the rice anther development and pollen fertility. Pollen grains from homozygous osgpt1 mutant plants fail to accumulate starch granules, resulting in pollen sterility. Genetic analyses reveal a sporophytic effect for this mutation. Os GPT1 is highly expressed in the tapetal layer of rice anther. Degeneration of the tapetum, an important process to provide cellular contents to support pollen development, is impeded in osgpt1 plants. In addition, defective intine and exine are observed in the pollen from osgpt1 plants. Expression levels of multiple genes that are important to tapetum degeneration or pollen wall formation are significantly decreased in osgpt1 anthers. Previously, we reported that At GPT1 plays a gametic function in the accumulation of lipid bodies in Arabidopsis pollen. This report highlights a sporophytic role of Os GPT1 in the tapetum degeneration and pollen development. The divergent functions of Os GPT1 and At GPT1 in pollen development might be a result of their independent evolution after monocots and dicots diverged.
