Genetic study of -glucan content and -glucanase activity has been facilitated by recent developments in quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis. QTL for barley and malt -glucan content and for green and finished malt -glucanase activity were mapped using a 123-point molecular marker linkage map from the cross of Steptoe/Morex. Three QTL for barley -glucan, 6 QTL for malt -glucan, 3 QTL for -glucanase in green malt and 5 QTL for -glucanase in finished malt were detected by interval mapping procedures. The QTL with the largest effects on barley -glucan, malt glucan, green malt -glucanase and finished malt glucanase were identified on chromosomes 2,1,4 and 7, respectively. A genome map-based approach allows for dissection of relationships among barley and malt glucan content, green and finished malt -glucanase activity, and other malting quality parameters. 相似文献

Molecular characterization of a pea β-1,3-glucanase induced by Fusarium solani and chitosan challenge 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
-glucanases are prominent proteins in pea endocarp tissue responding to fungal infection. We have cloned and sequenced a partial pea cDNA clone, pPIG312, corresponding to a -1,3-glucanase in pea pods challenged with the incompatible pathogen Fusarium solani f. sp. phaseoli. The insert from the partial pea cDNA was used to probe a genomic library derived from pea leaves of the same cultivar. One of the genomic clones, pPIG4-3, contained the complete coding sequence for a mature -1,3-glucanase protein. The predicted amino acid sequence of the pea -1,3-glucanase has 78% identity to bean -1,3-glucanase, 62% and 60% to two tobacco -1,3-glucanases, 57% to soybean -1,3-glucanase, 51% to barley -1,3-glucanase, and 48% to barley -1,3-1,4-glucanase. Genomic Southern analysis indicates that the pea genome contains only one -1,3-glucanase gene corresponding to the probe used in this study. Accumulation of -1,3-glucanase mRNA homologous with the pPIG312 probe was detected in pea pods within 4 to 8 h after challenge with F. solani f. sp. phaseoli, f. sp. pisi, a compatible strain, or the elicitor, chitosan. In the incompatible reaction, mRNA accumulation remained high for 48h, whereas it rapidly decreased in the compatible reaction. After fungal inoculation of whole pea seedlings, the enhanced mRNA accumulation occurred mainly in the basal region (lower stem and root). This -1,3-glucanase glucanase mRNA was constitutively expressed in the roots of pea seedlings. The sustained levels of -glucanase mRNA expression induced by the incompatible pathogen in the resistance response suggests that the enzyme contributes to the pea plant's general defense. 相似文献

Expression sites of genes encoding (13,14)--glucan 4-glucanohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.73) have been mapped in germinated barley grains (Hordeum vulgare L.) by hybridization histochemistry. A32P-labelled cDNA (copy DNA) probe was hybridized to cryosections of intact barley grains to localize complementary mRNAs. No mRNA encoding (13,14)--glucanase is detected in ungerminated grain. Expression of (13,14)--glucanase genes is first detected in the scutellum after 1 d and is confined to the epithelial layer. At this stage, no expression is apparent in the aleurone. After 2 d, levels of (13,14)--glucanase mRNA decrease in the scutellar epithelium but increase in the aleurone. In the aleurone layer, induction of (13,14)--glucanase gene expression, as measured by mRNA accumulation, progresses from the proximal to distal end of the grain as a front moving away from, and parallel to, the face of the scutellum.Abbreviations cDNA

A critical stage in pollen development is the dissolution of the four products of meiosis, the tetrads, into free microspores. The tetrads are surrounded by a thick callose wall composed of -1,3-glucan. At the completion of meiosis, the tetrads are released into the anther locule after hydrolysis of the callose by a -1,3-glucanase. Using the polymerase chain reaction, we have amplified and subsequently cloned a cDNA corresponding to a -1,3-glucanase, tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun) anther glucanase (Tag 1), which is expressed exclusively in anthers from meiosis to the free microspore stage of pollen development. The identity of the clone was determined by DNA and deduced protein sequence similarity to other known -1,3-glucanases. Several regions strictly conserved among four classes of glucanases are also conserved in the Tag 1 protein. Tag 1 represents a novel class of -1,3-glucanase based on phylogenetic analysis and RNA expression pattern. Tag 1 RNA was detected in situ only in the tapetum, with maximal expression just prior to tetrad dissolution. Due to its expression pattern and sequence similarity to other -1,3-glucanases, we believe Tag 1 may be involved in tetrad dissolution. 相似文献

Mixed membrane preparations from the coleoptiles and first leaves of young barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Triumph) plants catalysed the synthesis of 55% methanol-insoluble labelled material from UDP[U-14C]glucose, the main components of which were identified as (1,3)(1,4)-- and (1,3)--D-glucans. The membrane preparations also catalysed the transformation of UDP-glucose into labelled low-molecular-weight products, mainly glucose (by phosphatase action), glucose-1-phosphate (by phosphodiesterase action) and glyco(phospho)lipids (by glycosyltransferase action). The formation of (1,3)(1,4)--glucans, (1,3)--glucans, and the other reactions competing for UDP-glucose, were monitored simultaneously and quantitatively by a novel procedure based on enzymatic analysis, thin-layer chromatography and digital autoradiography. Thus it was possible (i) to optimise conditions to obtain (1,3)(1,4)--glucan synthesis or (1,3)--glucan synthesis in isolation, and (ii) to study the influence of temperature, pH, cofactors, substrate concentration etc. on the (1,3)(1,4) and (1,3)--glucan synthesis reactions even when both occurred together. The synthesis of both -glucans was optimal at 20°C. In Tris-HCl buffer, the pH optima for (1,3)(1,4)--glucan synthesis and (1,3)--glucan synthesis were pH 8.5 and pH 7.0, respectively. Both glucan-synthesis reactions required Mg2+: (1,3)--glucan synthesis was optimal at 2 mM, whereas (1,3)(1,4)--glucan synthesis continued to increase up to 200 mM Mg2+, when the ion was supplied as the sulphate. (1,3)--Glucan synthesis was Ca2+ dependent and this dependence could be abolished by proteinase treatment. The K
m with respect to UDP-glucose was 1.5 mM for (1,3)--glucan synthesis and approximately 1 mM for (1,3)(1,4)--glucan synthesis. The (1,3)(1,4)--glucan formed in vitro had the same ratio of trisaccharide to tetrasaccharide structural blocks irrespective of the experimental conditions used during the synthesis: its enzymatic fragmentation pattern was indistinguishable from that of barley endosperm (1,3)(1,4)--glucan. This indicates either a single synthase enzyme, which is responsible for the formation of both linkage types, or two enzymes which are very tightly coupled functionally.Abbreviations G4G4G3G

The expression of the bacterial gene for thermostable -1,3-glucanase in transgenic tobacco plants was shown to induce substantial changes in plant morphogenetic potential, whereas the expression of -1,3; 1,4-glucanase did not affect essentially plant morphogenesis. Our results permit the suggestion that the expression of bacterial -1,3-glucanase in plants elevated the level of endogenous auxin. 相似文献

Members of the (13)--glucan glucanohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.39) gene family have been mapped on the barley genome using three doubled haploid populations and seven wheat-barley addition lines. Specific probes or polymerase chain reaction (PCR) primers were generated for the seven barley (13)--glucanase genes for which cDNA or genomic clones are currently available. The seven genes are all located on the long arm of chromosome 3 (3HL), and genes encoding isoenzymes GI, GII, GIII, GIV, GV and GVII (ABG2) are clustered in a region less than 20 cM in length. The region is flanked by the RFLP marker MWG2099 on the proximal side and the Barley Yellow Mosaic Virus (BYMV) resistance gene ym4 at the distal end. The gene encoding isoenzyme GVI lies approximately 50 cM outside this cluster, towards the centromere. With the exception of the gene encoding isoenzyme GIV, all of the (13)--glucanase genes are represented by single copies on the barley genome. The probe for the isoenzyme GIV gene hybridized with four DNA bands during Southern blot analysis, only one of which could be incorporated into the consensus linkage map. 相似文献

Conditions which induce a transmembrane electrical potential, positive with respect to the inside of membrane vesicles, result in a substantial (4–12-fold) stimulation of the activity of membrane-associated -glucan synthetases in a membrane preparation derived from the developing cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) fiber. Induction of electrical potentials which are negative with respect to the inside of the membrane vesicle results in little or no stimulation of -glucan synthesis. Those products whose synthesis is stimulated are mainly -1,3-glucan, but there is also a considerable increase in -1,4-glucan. No -1,4-glucan (starch) was detected in the reaction products. A transmembrane pH gradient was found to have no effect on -glucan synthesis. The results indicate that a transmembrane electrical potential can influence, either directly or indirectly, the activity of membrane-associated polysaccharide synthetases.Abbreviations UDP-glucose

Summary A -1,3-glucan-binding protein (GBP) was purified from crayfish plasma, and incubated with laminarin (L), a -1,3-glucan. The GBP reacted with laminarin (GBP-L) induced strong spreading and partial degranulation of isolated and separated crayfish granular haemocytes. However, neither the GBP nor laminarin alone induced any changes in the crayfish granular cells. When monolayers of granular haemocytes were incubated with 20 g of GBP-L, more than 82% of the haemocytes were affected. The activity of GBP-L on granular cells was dose-dependent and a plateau was reached at 10 g of GBP-L. The degranulation of crayfish haemocytes induced by GBP-L seemed to occur by a regulated exocytosis, since it was strongly inhibited by specific blockers of this process such as SITS or calmidazolium. Monospecific anti-GBP antibodies also totally blocked the effect of GBP-L on crayfish granular cells. Indirect immunofluoresence staining demonstrated that the GBP-L could bind to the surface of granular cells, whereas GBP did not bind or bound very weakly to the haemocyte surface. 相似文献

-1,3-Glucanase (Lu) was isolated from unfertilized eggs of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus intermedius. A comparative study of some properties of -1,3-glucanase Lu and -1,3-glucanases with different action types—endo--1,3-glucanase from crystalline style of the marine mollusk Spisula sachalinensis (LIV) and exo--1,3-glucanase from the terrestrial snail Eulota maakii (LII)—was performed. It was found that -1,3-glucanase Lu hydrolyzes laminaran with a high yield of glucose in the reaction products. The enzyme hydrolyzes substrates with retention of the glycosidic bond configuration, is able to cleave modified substrates, and exhibits transglycosylating activity. All properties of -1,3-glucanase from S. intermedius were more similar to those of the endo--1,3-glucanase from the marine mollusk (LIV) than exo--1,3-glucanase LII from the terrestrial snail. The differences in the effect of LIV and Lu on laminaran are probably related to the functions of -1,3-glucanase Lu from sea urchin eggs (which, in contrast to LIV, is not a digestive enzyme). 相似文献

Alkaliphilic Nocardiopsis sp. strain F96 produced three -1,3-glucanase isozymes of different molecular masses (BglF1, BglF2 and BglF3). The N-terminal amino acid sequences of BglFs indicated that these isozymes were the products of a single gene. The -1,3-glucanase gene (bglF) was cloned from the chromosomal DNA of strain F96. The bglF gene encoded a polypeptide of 270 amino acids including a signal sequence. The deduced amino acid sequence of mature BglF exhibited the highest homology to those of glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 16 -1,3-glucanases, suggesting that the enzyme belonged to the GH family 16. The mature region of bglF gene was functionally expressed in Escherichia coli. The optimum pH and temperature of purified recombinant BglF were pH 9.0 and 70°C, respectively. This enzyme efficiently hydrolyzed insoluble -1,3-glucans and showed the highest activity toward a -1,3-1,4-glucan rather than -1,3-glucans. These results suggested that BglF would be a novel -1,3-glucanse. Mutational analysis revealed that Glu123 and Glu128 should be the catalytic residues of BglF. 相似文献

Ethylene induced chitinase (EC 3.2.1.14) and -1,3-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.29) to a similar extent in primary leaves of bean seedlings (Phaseolus vulgaris cv. Saxa). Both enzymes were purified from ethylene-treated leaves, and monospecific antibodies were raised aginst them. Ethylene treatments strongly increased the amount of immunore-active chitinase and -1,3-glucanase. Ethylene enhanced synthesis of chitinase in vivo, as tested by immunoprecipitation after pulse-labelling with [35S]methionine. RNA was isolated from bean leaves and translated in a rabbit reticulocyte lysate system in vitro. The chitinase and the -1,3-glucanase antiserum each precipitated a single polypeptide from the translation products. The precipitated polypeptides were 1500 and 4000 daltons larger, respectively, than native chitinase and native -1,3-glucanase, indicating that the two enzymes were synthesized as precursors in vitro. The translatable mRNAs for both enzymes increased at least tenfold within 2 h in response to a treatment with ethylene. When ethylene was withdrawn after 8 h of incubation, the translatable mRNAs for both enzymes decreased somewhat more slowly, reaching the basal level about 25 h later. In all cases, there was a close correlation between the levels of translatable mRNA for chitinase and -1,3-glucanase. A putative -1,3-glucanase cDNA clone, pCH16, was isolated by hybrid-selected translation. The amount of -1,3-glucanase mRNA, as measured by RNA blot analysis using pCH16 as a probe, increased rapidly in response to ethylene and decreased again after withdrawal of ethylene, indicating that the amount of hybridizable RNA and of translatable mRNA for -1,3-glucanase were correlated. In conclusion, the results indicate that chitinase and -1,3-glucanase are regulated co-ordinately at the level of mRNA.Abbreviations poly(A)+ RNA

A gene coding for the endo--1,3-1,4-glucanase of B. circulans ATCC21367 was cloned into Escherichia coli. The cloned enzyme hydrolyzed lichenan or barley -glucan to produce 3-O--cellobiosyl-d-glucose as a main product but was inactive with carboxymethyl cellulose, laminarin and xylan. The enzyme, M
r=28 kDa, remained within the cytoplasm of E. coli. A 771 bp open reading frame was in the 2 kb PstI fragment of the recombinant plasmid pLL200K. The deduced protein sequence consists of 257 amino acids and has a putative signal peptide of 26 amino acids. The amino acid sequence of the endo--1,3-1,4-glucanase showed 68 and 51% homology to previously reported endo--1,3-1,4-glucanases from Bacillus strain N-137 and B. brevis, respectively. 相似文献

Cotton fibres possess several -glucanase activities which appear to be associated with the cell wall, but which can be partially solubilised in buffers. The main activity detected was that of an exo-(13)--d-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.58) but which also had the characteristics of a -glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21). Endo-(13)--d-glucanase activity (EC 3.2.1.39) and much lower levels of (14)--d-glucanase activity were also detected. The exo-(13)--glucanase showed a maximum late on (40 days post-anthesis) in the development of the fibres, whereas the endo-(13)--glucanase activity remained constant throughout fibre development. The -glucanase complex associated with the cotton-fibre cell wall also functions as a transglucosylase introducing, inter alia, (16)--glucosyl linkages into the disaccharide cellobiose to give the trisaccharide 4-O--gentiobiosylglucose.Abbreviations CMC

We report here the isolation and characterization of a new endo-1,3--glucanase (1,3--GLU) cDNA, OsGLN2, that is expressed both in flowers and in germinating seeds of rice (Oryza sativa L.). The isolated OsGLN2 gene encoded a protein which displayed 72%, 93% and 92% identity at the amino acid level with those encoded by barley GII, rice Gns4 and glu1 1,3--GLU genes, respectively. A GST-OsGLN2 recombinant protein expressed in Escherichia coli preferentially hydrolyzed Laminaria digitata 1,3;1,6--glucan and liberated only oligosaccharides, suggesting that the enzyme can be classified as a 1,3--GLU. Northern analysis with a 3-UTR gene-specific probe revealed that OsGLN2 is expressed exclusively in the paleae and lemmas during flowering, and no expression of OsGLN2 was detected in other tissues such as leaf blades, leaf sheaths, stems, nodes and roots in mature rice plants. The OsGLN2 gene is also expressed in germinating seeds, where its expression is predominant in endosperms rather than embryos. In de-embryonated rice half-seeds, addition of gibberellin A3 (GA) greatly enhanced expression of the OsGLN2 gene, while the GA-induced gene expression was suppressed strongly by abscisic acid (ABA). This is the first report, to our knowledge, that OsGLN2 encodes a 1,3--GLU and is expressed specifically in paleae and lemmas during flowering and in germinating seeds, where its expression is enhanced by GA and suppressed by ABA.Abbreviations ABA Abscisic acid - GA Gibberellin A3 - 1,3--GLU Endo-1,3--glucanase - GST Glutathione S-transferase - IPTG Isopropyl-1-thio--galactopyranoside - 3-UTR 3-Untranslated region 相似文献

We examined some characteristics of hydrolyticenzymes, especially -1,3-glucanase, to obtain theinformation of cell wall lytic enzymes forrotifers.Crude enzyme (ammonium sulfate fraction) of rotifershydrolyzed starch, -1,3-glucan, glycol chitinand CM-cellulose. Optimum pH for hydrolysis ofstarch and CM-cellulose was 6.5, and that for -1,3glucan and glycol chitin was pH 6.0. Pectic acid,xylan and agarose were not hydrolyzed at pH 3–10.-1,3 glucanase was purified about 73-fold from crudeenzyme by ion-exchange chromatography and gelfiltration. Optimum pH and temperature of the enzymewere 6 and 60 °C, respectively. The molecular weight ofthe enzyme was estimated about 260 kDa by gelfiltration. The enzyme was inhibited byHgCl2 and MnCl_2. 相似文献

Summary Random inbred lines produced by doubled haploidy (DH) and single seed descent (SSD) have been used to investigate the genetics of -glucan (gum) content in barley (Hordeum vulgare). Genetical analyses indicated that gum content is controlled by a simple additive genetic system. Significant negative genetic correlations were observed between -glucan content, thousand grain weight and height in the DH samples. These correlations were much reduced in the SSD samples and would suggest linkage of the genes controlling these characters. The presence of repulsion linkages could be exploited in a barley breeding programme by producing F1 derived DH to generate recombinants with high thousand grain weight and low -glucan content. Genetical parameters estimated from DH and F3 samples have successfully been used to predict the number of inbred lines transgressing the parental range for -glucan content and bivariate combinations involving -glucan. 相似文献

GlcNAc1-2Man and GlcNAc1-6Man were synthesized using the reverse hydrolysis activity of -N-acetylglucosaminidase from both jack beans and Bacillus circulans. In turn, Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2Man and Gal1-4GlcNAc1-6Man were synthesized regioselectively using the transglycosylation activity of -galactosidase from Diplococcus pneumoniae and B. circulans, respectively. These di- and trisaccharides are important components of complex type sugar chains and will be used as intermediates in our synthetic studies.

A 1177 bp cDNA fragment encoding the human milk protein -casein was introduced into Solanum tuberosum cells under control of the auxin-inducible, bidirectional mannopine synthase mas12) promoters using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated leaf disc transformation methods. Antibiotic-resistant plants were regenerated and transformants selected based on luciferase activity carried by the expression vector containing the human -casein cDNA. The presence of human -casein cDNA in the plant genome was detected by PCR and DNA hybridization experiments. Human -casein mRNA was identified in leaf tissues of transgenic plants by RT-PCR analysis. Human - casein was identified in auxin-induced leaf and tuber tissues of transformed potato plants by immunoprecipitation and immunoblot analysis. Human -casein produced in transgenic plants migrated in polyacrylamide gels as a single band with an approximate molecular mass of 30 kDa. Immunoblot experiments identified approximately 0.01% of the total soluble protein of transgenic potato leaf tissue as -casein. The above experiments demonstrate the expression of human milk - casein as part of an edible food plant. These findings open the way for reconstitution of human milk inedible plants for replacement of bovine milk in baby foods for general improvement of infant nutrition, and for prevention of gastric and intestinal diseases in children 相似文献

A highly sensitive and specific rocket immunoassay was used to measure the content of an endo-type -1,3-glucanase (EC 3.2.1.39) in tissues of Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Havana 425. We show that the accumulation of -1,3-glucanase in cultured pith-parenchyma tissue is blocked by combinations of the auxin, -naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), and the cytokinin, kinetin. When tissues pre-incubated for 7 d on complete medium containing 2.0 mg·l-1 NAA and 0.3 mg·l-1 kinetin are transferred onto medium without hormones or with either hormone added separately, the -1,3-glucanase content expressed per mg soluble protein increases approx. ten fold over a 7-d period. Under these inductive conditions, up to approx. 5% of the soluble protein is -1,3-glucanase. The induction is inhibited by >90% when tissues are cultured over the same period on medium containing both hormones. This -1,3-glucanase is developmentally regulated in the intact plant. It is a major component of the soluble protien in the lower leaves and roots but is not detectable in leaves near the top of the plant.Abbreviation NAA
