The molecular basis of salt tolerance of L-myo-inositol 1-P synthase (MIPS; EC 5.5.1.4) from Porteresia coarctata (Roxb.) Tateoka (PcINO1, AF412340) earlier reported from this laboratory, has been analyzed by in vitro mutant and hybrid generation and subsequent biochemical and biophysical studies of the recombinant proteins. A 37-amino acid stretch between Trp-174 and Ser-210 has been confirmed as the salt-tolerance determinant domain in PcINO1 both by loss or gain of salt tolerance by either deletion or by addition to salt-sensitive MIPS(s) of Oryza (OsINO1) and Brassica juncea (BjINO1). This was further verified by growth analysis under salt environment of Schizosaccharomyces pombe transformed with the various gene constructs and studies on the differential behavior of mutant and wild proteins by Trp fluorescence, aggregation, and circular dichroism spectra in the presence of salt. 4,4'-Dianilino-1,1'-binaphthyl-5,5-disulfonic acid binding experiments revealed a lower hydrophobic surface on PcINO1 than OsINO1, contributed by this 37-amino acid stretch explaining the differential behavior of OsINO1 and PcINO1 both with respect to their enzymatic functions and thermodynamic stability in high salt environment. Detailed amino acid sequence comparison and modeling studies revealed the interposition of polar and charged residues and a well-connected hydrogen-bonding network formed by Ser and Thr in this stretch of PcINO1. On the contrary, hydrophobic residues clustered in two continuous stretches in the corresponding region of OsINO1 form a strong hydrophobic patch on the surface. It is conceivable that salt-tolerant MIPS proteins may be designed out of the salt-sensitive plant MIPS proteins by replacement of the corresponding amino acid stretch by the designated 37-amino acid stretch of PcINO1. 相似文献

Improving crop tolerance to osmotic stresses is a longstanding goal of agricultural biotechnology. In the present work the PcINO1 gene coding for a salt-tolerant L-myo-inositol-1-phosphate synthase (MIPS) from Porteresia coarctata (Roxb.) Tateoka, a halophytic wild rice was introgressed into cultivated mustard, Brassica juncea var B85. The transgenic plants demonstrate increased tolerance to salinity and oxidative stress with elevated level of inositol in both roots and shoots. The yield and crop quality of transgenic Brassica plants remain uncompromised and the plants were able to stably grow, set seeds and germinate in saline environments. When targeted to seeds of Nicotiana, PcINO1 was able to improve the seed survival rate under salinity and dehydration. Inositol and its derivatives regulate stress responses in various ways, serving as compatible solutes or signaling molecules. It is implicated that engineering inositol metabolism may affect the plant metabolic network leading to a stress tolerant phenotype as enumerated here in transgenic crop plants. How inositol itself or its derivatives affect the overall metabolic pathways leading to a stress-tolerant phenotype remains an intriguing question for future investigations. 相似文献

l-myo-Inositol-1-phosphate synthase (EC 5.5.1.4, MIPS), an evolutionarily conserved enzyme protein, catalyzes the synthesis of inositol, which is implicated in a number of metabolic reactions in the biological kingdom. Here we report on the isolation of the gene (PINO1) for a novel salt-tolerant MIPS from the wild halophytic rice, Porteresia coarctata (Roxb.) Tateoka. Identity of the PINO1 gene was confirmed by functional complementation in a yeast inositol auxotrophic strain. Comparison of the nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of PINO1 with that of the homologous gene from Oryza sativa L. (RINO1) revealed distinct differences in a stretch of 37 amino acids, between amino acids 174 and 210. Purified bacterially expressed PINO1 protein demonstrated a salt-tolerant character in vitro compared with the salt-sensitive RINO1 protein as with those purified from the native source or an expressed salt-sensitive mutant PINO1 protein wherein amino acids 174-210 have been deleted. Analysis of the salt effect on oligomerization and tryptophan fluorescence of the RINO1 and PINO1 proteins revealed that the structure of PINO1 protein is stable toward salt environment. Furthermore, introgression of PINO1 rendered transgenic tobacco plants capable of growth in 200-300 mm NaCl with retention of approximately 40-80% of the photosynthetic competence with concomitant increased inositol production compared with unstressed control. MIPS protein isolated from PINO1 transgenics showed salt-tolerant property in vitro confirming functional expression in planta of the PINO1 gene. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a salt-tolerant MIPS from any source. 相似文献

The salt-tolerant varieties of rice (Oryza sativa L.) exhibit enhanced activity of the chloroplast form of L-myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase (EC 5.5.4.1) under NaCl treatment either during the seedling stage or in fully grown plants during field growth. The salt-induced enhancement was noticeable only in chloroplasts from light-grown plants. The effects of these treatments on the cytosolic inositol synthase activity were less pronounced. While the effect of salt on the activity of the two forms was marginal in the salt-sensitive varieties during seedling growth, salinity affected the chloroplast inositol synthase activity adversely in these varieties during growth of the plants under field conditions. The salt-enhanced activities of inositol synthase(s) in the highly salt-tolerant varieties studied were found to be comparable to that observed in Porteresia coarctata, a halophytic wild rice species. The implications of these findings, which suggest a role of the inositol pathway in osmoregulation, are discussed. 相似文献

A 1.4 Kb cDNA clone encoding a serine-rich protein has been isolated from the cDNA library of salt stressed roots of Porteresia coarctata, and designated as P. coarctata serine-rich-protein (PcSrp) encoding gene. Northern analysis and in situ mRNA hybridization revealed the expression of PcSrp in the salt stressed roots and rhizome of P. coarctata. However, no such expression was seen in the salt stressed leaves and in the unstressed tissues of root, rhizome and leaf, indicating that PcSrp is under the control of a salt-inducible tissue-specific promoter. In yeast, the PcSrp conferred increased NaCl tolerance, implicating its role in salinity tolerance at cellular level. Further, PcSrp was cloned downstream to rice Actin-1 promoter and introduced into finger millet through particle-inflow-gun method. Transgenic plants expressing PcSrp were able to grow to maturity and set seed under 250 mM NaCl stress. The untransformed control plants by contrast failed to survive under similar salt stress. The stressed roots of transgenic plants invariably accumulated higher Na+ and K+ ion contents compared to roots of untransformed plants; whereas, shoots of transgenics accumulated lower levels of both the ions than that of untransformed plants under identical stress, clearly suggesting the involvement of PcSrp in ion homeostasis contributing to salt tolerance. 相似文献

Salinity and submergence are two very prominent abiotic stress conditions affecting rice yield adversely in the coastal agro ecosystem. Marker Assisted Backcross Breeding (MABB) is an efficient and fast track molecular tool to incorporate a desired stress tolerant QTL/gene into an improved cultivar. The present study was carried out for the introgression of Saltol QTL responsible for salinity tolerance and Sub1 gene responsible for submergence tolerance into the high yielding rice variety Aiswarya independently through MABB. Final objective of the study is to develop dual stress tolerant (tolerance to salinity and submergence) Aiswarya rice variety by pyramiding the both target QTLs introgressed BC2F2 progenies having maximum background homozygosity. The donors of Saltol QTL and Sub1 gene used in the present study were FL478 and Swarna Sub1, respectively. Based on the background genome analysis of the introgressed plants, the plants with > 85–90% background similarity were selected for pyramiding of Saltol QTL and Sub1 gene into the elite background of rice variety Aiswarya. Those selected introgressed lines with Saltol QTL and Sub1 gene will be again crossed to pyramid both Saltol QTL and Sub1 gene into the rice variety Aiswarya. Such a mega rice variety pyramided with dual stress tolerant QTLs is the expected outcome of this study and can be recommended for cultivation in the flood prone saline coastal agroecosystem. 相似文献

Human myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase (IP synthase; E.C. 5.5.1.4), encoded by ISYNA1, catalyzes the de novo synthesis of inositol 1-phosphate from glucose 6-phosphate. It is a potential target for mood-stabilizing drugs such as lithium and valproate. But, very little is known about the regulation of human IP synthase. Here, we have characterized the minimal promoter of ISYNA1 and show that it is upregulated by E2F1. Upregulation occurs in a dose-dependent fashion and can be suppressed by ectopic expression of Rb. EMSA and antibody supershift analysis identified a functional E2F binding motif at -117. Complex formation at this site was competed by an excess of unlabeled Sp1 oligo consistent with the -117 E2F site overlapping an Sp1 motif. Because the -117 E2F motif is not a high-affinity binding site, we propose that the upregulation of ISYNA1 occurs through the cooperative interaction of several low-affinity E2F binding motifs present in the minimal promoter. 相似文献

Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) is an important plant regulator that involves in plant development and regulates the expression of
plant defense genes in response to various stresses such as wounding, drought, and pathogens. In order to determine the physiological
role of endogenous MeJA in plants, a NTR1 from Brassica campestris encoding a jasmonic acid carboxyl methyltransferase that produces methyl jasmonate was constructed under the control of CaMV
35S promoter and transformed into soybean [Glycine max (L) Merrill]. The transgenic soybean plants constitutively expressed the NTR1 and accumulated more MeJA levels than wild type plants. Overexpression of the gene in transgenic soybean conferred tolerance
to dehydration during seed germination and seedling growth as reflected by the percentage of the fresh weight of seedlings.
In addition, the transgenic soybean plants also conferred better capacity to retain water than wild type plants when drought
tolerance was tested using detached leaves. 相似文献

Fructan is an important class of non-structural carbohydrates present in cool-season grasses. Sucrose: fructan 6-fructosyltransferase (6-SFT, EC 2.4.1.10), one of the enzymes thought to be involved in grass fructan biosynthesis, catalyzes the initiation and extension of 2,6-linked fructans.Myo-inositol is a central component in several metabolic pathways in higher plants.Myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase (MIPS) (EC 5.5.1.4), the first enzyme in inositolde novo biosynthesis, catalyzes the formation ofmyo-inositol 1-phosphate (MIP) from glucose-6-phosphate. The expression of 6-SFT and MIPS genes is compared in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) leaves under various conditions. In cool temperature treatments, both 6-SFT and MIPS mRNAs accumulate within two days and then decline after four days. Under warm temperatures and continuous illumination, the amount of 6-SFT and MIPS mRNA gradually accumulated in detached leaves and increased significantly by 8 h. In contrast, we observed no significant changes over time in attached (control) leaves. Treating detached leaves with glucose or sucrose in the dark resulted in accumulations of both 6-SFT and MIPS mRNA. Homologous expression patterns for 6-SFT and MIPS genes suggest that they may be similarly regulated in barley leaves. Although sucrose and glucose may play important roles in the expression of 6-SFT and MIPS genes, regulation likely involves multiple factors. 相似文献

Overexpression of HVA1 gene from barley generates tolerance to salinity and water stress in transgenic mulberry (Morus indica) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins are members of a large group of hydrophilic proteins found primarily in plants. The barley hva1 gene encodes a group 3 LEA protein and is induced by ABA and water deficit conditions. We report here the over expression of hva1 in mulberry under a constitutive promoter via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Molecular analysis of the transgenic plants revealed the stable integration and expression of the transgene in the transformants. Transgenic plants were subjected to simulated salinity and drought stress conditions to study the role of hva1 in conferring tolerance. The transgenic plants showed better cellular membrane stability (CMS), photosynthetic yield, less photo-oxidative damage and better water use efficiency as compared to the non-transgenic plants under both salinity and drought stress. Under salinity stress, transgenic plants show many fold increase in proline concentration than the non-transgenic plants and under water deficit conditions proline is accumulated only in the non-transgenic plants. Results also indicate that the production of HVA1 proteins helps in better performance of transgenic mulberry by protecting membrane stability of plasma membrane as well as chloroplastic membranes from injury under abiotic stress. Interestingly, it was observed that hva1 conferred different degrees of tolerance to the transgenic plants towards various stress conditions. Amongst the lines analysed for stress tolerance transgenic line ST8 was relatively more salt tolerant, ST30, ST31 more drought tolerant, and lines ST11 and ST6 responded well under both salinity and drought stress conditions as compared to the non-transgenic plants. Thus hva1 appears to confer a broad spectrum of tolerance under abiotic stress in mulberry. 相似文献
