The activities of sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS), sucrose synthase (SUSY), neutral invertase (NI) and soluble acid invertase (SAI) regulates sucrose activity in sugarcane were studied. Micropropagated sugarcane plants were obtained from callus cultures of four Mexican commercially available sugarcane varieties characterized by differences in sugar production, and activities of SPS, SUSY, NI, SAI and concentrations of sucrose were monitored in the sugarcane stem. The results indicated that sucrose accumulation was positively and significantly related to an increase in activity of SPS and SUSY and negatively to a reduction in activity of SAI and NI (P<0.05). SPS explained most of the variations found for sucrose accumulation and least for NI. The relationship between activity of SPS, SUSY, NI and SAI in sugarcane stem was similar in each variety.  相似文献

The presence of sucrose and the enzymes related to sucrose metabolism, i.e. sucrose synthase (SS) (UDP-glucose: D-fructose-2-glucosyl transferase, EC 2.4.1.13), sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) (UDP-glucose: D-fructose-6-phosphate-2-glucosyl transferase, EC 2.4.1.14) and invertase (β-D-fructofuranoside fructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) was demonstrated in Prototheca zopfii, a colorless alga. The levels of enzyme activities were lower than those obtained in Chlorella vulgaris, which is generally considered the photosynthetic counterpart of P. zopfii. Whem enzyme activities were measured in bleached cells of C. vulgaris, the levels were of the same order than those found in P. zopfii. These results would indicate that the sucrose metabolizing enzymes are not related to the algae ability to carry on photosynthesis.  相似文献

蔗糖是一类重要的碳水化合物,其代谢与植物生长发育及抵抗胁迫等有密切的关系。蔗糖合成酶(SUS)、蔗糖磷酸合成酶(SPS)与蔗糖转化酶(INV)是参与蔗糖代谢的三类关键酶。本研究依据转录组测序数据,从能源植物菊芋中鉴定了2个SUS、2个SPS和7个INV基因(GenBank No:MK386943-53)。生物信息学分析表明,菊芋SUS、SPS和INV的氨基酸序列与其他物种具有较高的相似性,均属于亲水性蛋白。在25、30°C处理10、15、20 d的菊芋幼苗叶片中,这三种基因家族成员呈现不同的表达模式;除可溶性总糖含量减少外,果糖、蔗糖、蔗果三糖等含量没有发生明显变化。表明高温下幼苗蔗糖代谢关键酶基因发生了响应,蔗糖代谢处于平衡状态,显示了菊芋对高温的良好耐受性。  相似文献

Recent reports have suggested that sucrose phosphate synthase (EC 2.4.1.14), a key enzyme in sucrose biosynthesis in photosynthetic “source” tissues, may also be important in some sucrose accumulating “sink” tissues. These experiments were conducted to determine if sucrose phosphate synthase is involved in sucrose accumulation in fruits of several species. Peach (Prunus persica NCT 516) and strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa cv. Chandler) fruits were harvested directly from the plant at various stages of fruit development. Kiwi (Actinidia chinensis), papaya (Carica papaya), pineapple (Ananas comosus) and mango (Mangifera indica) were sampled in postharvest storage over a period of several days. Carbohydrate concentrations and activities of sucrose phosphate synthase, sucrose synthase (EC 2.4.1.13), and acid and neutral invertases (EC 3.2.1.26) were measured. All fruits contained significant activities of sucrose phosphate synthase. Moreover, in fruits from all species except pineapple and papaya, there was an increase in sucrose phosphate synthase activity associated with the accumulation of sucrose in situ. The increase in sucrose concentration in peaches was also associated with an increase in sucrose synthase activity and, in strawberries, with increased activity of both sucrose synthase and neutral invertase. The hexose pools in all fruits were comprised of equimolar concentrations of fructose and glucose, except in the mango. In mango, the fructose to glucose ratio increased from 2 to 41 during ripening as sucrose concentration more than doubled. The results of this study indicate that activities of the sucrose metabolizing enzymes, including sucrose phosphate synthase, within the fruit itself, are important in determining the soluble sugar content of fruits of many species. This appears to be true for fruits which sweeten from a starch reserve and in fruits from sorbitol translocating species, raffinose saccharide translocating species, and sucrose translocating species.  相似文献

We examined variability in sucrose levels and metabolism in ripe fruits of wild and domestic Vaccinium species and in developing fruits of cultivated blueberry (V. ashei and V. corymbosum). The objective was to determine if sufficient variability for fruit sucrose accumulation was present in existing populations to warrant attempts to breed for high-sucrose fruit, which potentially would be less subject to bird predation. Threefold differences in fruit sucrose concentration were found among Vaccinium species, ranging from 19 to 24 mg (g fresh weight)?1 in V. stamineum and V. arboreum to approximately 7 mg (g fresh weight)?1 in cultivated blueberry (V. ashei and V. corymbosum) and V. darrowi. Hexose levels were similar among species, ranging from 90 to 110 mg (g fresh weight)–1, and glucose and fructose were present in equal amounts. Soluble acid invertase (EC 3.2.1.26) activity was negatively correlated with fruit sucrose concentration. There was no apparent correlation between fruit sugar concentration and either sucrose synthase (EC 2.4.1.13) or sucrose phosphate synthase (EC 2.4.1.14) activities, both of which were low for all species studied. Developmental increases in fruit sugar levels of cultivated blueberry followed a pattern similar to that observed in fruit fresh weight accumulation. Hexose concentrations ranged from 6 to 30 mg (g fresh weight)?1 during the first 60 days after anthesis. Between 60 days and fruit ripening (80 days), hexose levels rose from 30 to 80 mg (g fresh weight)?1. Sucrose was not detected in fruits until ripening, when low levels were found. Insoluble acid invertase activity was relatively high early in fruit development, decreasing as soluble acid invertase activity increased. Between 60 days and fruit ripening, soluble acid invertase activity increased from 3 to 55 μmol (g fresh weight)–1 h–1. Both sucrose synthase and sucrose phosphate synthase activities were low throughout development. The extent of sucrose accumulation in fruits and the degree of variability for this trait among Vaccinium species support the feasibility of developing high sucrose fruits, which would be a potentially valuable addition to current strategies of minimizing crop losses to birds.  相似文献

Sucrose accumulation and enzyme activities in callus culture of sugarcane   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The activities of sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), sucrose synthase (SUSY), neutral invertase (NI) and soluble acid invertase (SAI) were measured in callus cultures of four Mexican sugarcane cultivars (Saccharum spp.) with a different capacity to accumulate sucrose in stem parenchyma cells. The results indicated that sucrose accumulation in callus was positively correlated to the activity of SPS and SUSY and negatively to the activity of SAI and NI while SPS explained most of the variation found for sucrose accumulation and NI least.The research was funded by the department of Biotechnology and Bioengineering CINVESTAV Mexico City, and F. G.-M. received grant-aided support from CONACyT, Mexico.  相似文献

Sucrose synthesis/accumulation in sugarcane is a complex process involving many genes and regulatory sequences that control biochemical events in source–sink tissues. Among these, sucrose synthase (SuSy), sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), soluble acid (SAI) and cell wall (CWI) invertases are important. Expression of these enzymes was compared in an early (CoJ64) and late (BO91) maturing sugarcane variety using end‐point and qRT‐PCR. Quantitative RT‐PCR at four crop stages revealed high CWI expression in upper internodes of CoJ64, which declined significantly in both top and bottom internodes with maturity. In BO91, CWI expression was high in top and bottom internodes and declined significantly only in top internodes as the crop matured. Overall, CWI expression was higher in CoJ64 than in BO91. During crop growth, there was no significant change in SPS expression in bottom internodes in CoJ64, whereas in BO91 it decreased significantly. Apart from a significant decrease in expression of SuSy in mature bottom internodes of BO91, there was no significant change. Similar SAI expression was observed with both end‐point and RT‐PCR, except for significantly increased expression in top internodes of CoJ64 with maturity. SAI, being a major sucrose hydrolysing enzyme, was also monitored with end‐point PCR expression in internode tissues of CoJ64 and BO91, with higher expression of SAI in BO91 at early crop stages. Enzyme inhibitors, e.g. manganese chloride (Mn++), significantly suppressed expression of SAI in both early‐ and late‐maturing varieties. Present findings enhance understanding of critical sucrose metabolic gene expression in sugarcane varieties differing in content and time of peak sucrose storage. Thus, through employing these genes, improvement of sugarcane sucrose content is possible.  相似文献

The effects of chilling stress on leaf photosynthesis and sucrose metabolism were investigated in tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cultivar Marmande). Twenty-one-day-old seedlings were grown in a growth chamber at 25/23 °C (day/night) (control) and at 10/8 °C (day/night) (chilled) for 7 days. The most evident effect of chilling was the marked reduction of plant growth and of CO2 assimilation as measured after 7 days, the latter being associated with a decrease in stomatal closure and an increase in Ci. The inhibition in photosynthetic rate was also related to an impairment of photochemistry of photosystem II (PSII), as seen from the slight, but significant change in the ratio of Fv/Fm. The capacity of chilled leaves to maintain higher qP values with respect to the controls suggests that some protection mechanism prevented excess reduction of PSII acceptors. The results of the determination of starch and soluble sugar content could show that chilling impaired sucrose translocation. The activity of leaf invertase increased significantly in chilled plants, while that of other sucrose-metabolizing enzymes was not affected by growing temperature. Furthermore, the increase in invertase (neutral and acid) activity, which is typical of senescent tissue characterized by reduced growth, seems to confirm that tomato is a plant which is not a plant genetically adapted to low temperatures.  相似文献

The inhibitory effects of sucrose on rates of sucrose synthesis by sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) from the maize scutellum and on net rates of sucrose production in maize scutellum slices from added glucose or fructose were studied. Scutellum extracts were prepared by freezing and thawing scutellum slices in buffer. The extracts contained SPS and sucrose phosphate phosphatase, but were free of sucrose synthase. SPS activity was calculated from measurement of UDP formation in the presence of UDPG, fructose-6-P and sucrose. The ranges of metabolite concentrations used were those estimated to be in scutellum slices after incubation in water or fructose for periods up to 5 hr. UDPG and fructose-6-P also were added at concentrations that saturated SPS. At saturating substrate levels, sucrose inhibition of SPS was less than that when tissue levels of substrates were used. With tissue levels of substrates and sucrose concentrations up to ca 166 mM, sucrose inhibitions of sucrose synthesis in vitro by SPS were similar to those observed in vivo. However, as the sucrose concentration rose above 166 mM, SPS activity was not inhibited further, whereas there was a further sharp decline in sucrose production by the slices. It is concluded that sucrose synthesis in vivo is controlled by sucrose inhibition of SPS over a considerable range of internal sucrose concentrations.  相似文献

Maize scutellum slices incubated in water utilized sucrose at a maximum rate of 0.12,μmol/min per g fr. wt of slices. When slices were incubated in DNP, there was a three-fold increase in the rate of sucrose utilization. Sucrose breakdown in higher plants can be achieved by pathways starting with either invertase or sucrose synthase (SS). Invertase activity in scutellum homogenates was found only in the cell wall fraction, indicating that SS was responsible for sucrose breakdown in vivo. SS in crude scutellum extracts broke down sucrose to fructose and UDPG at 0.39,μmol/min per g fresh wt of slices. The UDPG formed was not converted to UDP + glucose, UMP + glucose-1-P, UDP + glucose-1-P or broken down by any other means by the crude extract in the absence of PPi. In the presence of PPi, UDPG was broken down by UDPG pyrophosphorylase which had a maximum activity of 26 μmol/min per g fr. wt of slices. Levels of PPi in the scutellum could not be measured using the UDPG pyrophosphorylase: phosphoglucomutase: glucose-6-P dehydrogenase assay because they were too low relative to glucose-6-P which interferes in the assay. An active inorganic pyrophosphatase was present in the scutellum extract which could prevent the accumulation of PPi in the cytoplasm. ATP pyrophosphohydrolase, which hydrolyses ATP to AMP and PPi, was found in the soluble portion of the scutellum extract. The enzyme activity was increased by fructose-2,6-bisP and Ca2+. In the presence of both activators, enzyme activity was 1.1 μmol/min per g fr. wt of slices, a rate sufficient to supply PPi for the breakdown of UDPG. These results indicate that sucrose breakdown in maize scutellum cells occurs via the SS: UDPG pyrophosphorylase pathway.  相似文献

Little is known about the extent of allelic diversity of genes in the complex polyploid, sugarcane. Using sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) Gene (SPS) Family III as an example, we have amplified and sequenced a 400 nt region from this gene from two sugarcane lines that are parents of a mapping population. Ten single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified within the 400 nt region of which seven were present in both lines. In the elite commercial cultivar Q165A, 10 sequence haplotypes were identified, with four haplotypes recovered at 9% or greater frequency. Based on SNP presence, two clusters of haplotypes were observed. In IJ76-514, a Saccharum officinarum accession, 8 haplotypes were identified with 4 haplotypes recovered at 13% or greater frequency. Again, two clusters of haplotypes were observed. The results suggest that there may be two SPS Gene Family III genes per genome in sugarcane, each with different numbers of different alleles. This suggestion is supported by sequencing results in an elite parental sorghum line, 403463-2-1, in which 4 haplotypes, corresponding to two broad types, were also identified. Primers were designed to the sugarcane SNPs and screened over bulked DNA from high and low Sucrose-containing progeny from a cross between Q165A and IJ76-514. The SNP frequency did not vary in the two bulked DNA samples, suggesting that these SNPs from this SPS gene family are not associated with variation in sucrose content. Using an ecotilling approach, two of the SPS Gene Family III haplotypes were mapped to two different linkage groups in homology group 1 in Q165A. Both haplotypes mapped near QTLs for increased sucrose content but were not themselves associated with any sugar-related trait.  相似文献

Plants of wheat (Triticum aestivum) were grown at 23°C. After 17 days they were suddenly transferred to 4°C under the same light conditions. The change in temperature produced an increase in the level of sucrose and fructans. Following the chilling shock, enzymes related to sucrose metabolism were measured. The activities of fructose 1,6-biphosphatase, UDPGlc pyrophosphorylase, sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS), UDPase and invertase were not modified even after 8 days at 4°C. On the contrary, the activity of sucrose synthase (SS) (UDP-glucose: D-fructose-2-glucosyl transferase, EC 2.4.1.13) rose continuously, immediately after the chilling shock.  相似文献

网纹甜瓜发育果实糖分积累与蔗糖代谢参与酶的关系   总被引:29,自引:0,他引:29  
随着网纹甜瓜果实的发育,果实中葡萄糖和果糖的含量增加,蔗糖的快速积累发生在果实发育的中后期,高蔗糖积累型果实中蔗糖积累速率明显快于低蔗糖积累型.蔗糖磷酸合成酶活性在果实发育的前期短暂下降, 而后稳步上升,在果实发育的中后期高蔗糖积累型果实中该酶的活性显著高于低蔗糖积累型果实;随着果实发育,蔗糖合成酶的分解活性降低而合成活性升高.酸性和中性转化酶在未成熟果实中活性较高,而在成熟果实中很低; 高蔗糖积累型果实中酸性转化酶活性显著低于同期低蔗糖积累型果实.合成蔗糖的酶活性小于分解蔗糖的酶活性时蔗糖几乎没有积累.根据这些结果推测,转化酶活性的下降、蔗糖磷酸合成酶活性的增加以及蔗糖合成酶分解活性的下降和合成活性的增加,是引起果实蔗糖积累的主要内在因子.  相似文献

Sucrose phosphate synthase (UDP-glucose: D-fructose-6-phosphate-2-glucosyl transferase, EC 2.4.1.14), sucrose synthase (UDP-glucose: D-fructose-2-glucosyl transferase, EC 2.4.1.13) and invertase (β-D-fructofuranoside fructohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.26) were measured in toluene permeabilized cells of Chlorella vulgaris Beijerinck. All three activities were detected at all stages of the growth curve; sucrose synthase and sucrose phosphate synthase showed a zone of maximum activity, while invertase increased with time of growth. Sucrose phosphate synthase and sucrose synthase (sucrose synthesis direction) were stimulated by divalent cations and inhibited by UDP. This inhibition could be reversed by Mg2+ or Mn2+. Sucrose phosphate synthase activity was inhibited by inorganic phosphate and was enhanced by glucose-6-phosphate, but was insensitive to sucrose. Arbutine decreased sucrose synthase activity in both directions. Sucrose cleavage was inhibited by divalent cations and by pyrophosphate. The effects on the enzyme activities of the presence of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), gibberellic acid, abscisic acid and kinetin in the growth medium were investigated. Sucrose synthase activity was practically unaffected by all plant hormones tested, except for the presence of kinetin which stimulated the activity. Sucrose phosphate synthase activity was increased by both kinetin and abscisic acid. The effect of the latter was partially reversed by the presence of gibberellic acid. 2,4-D and kinetin were potent stimulators of invertase activity.  相似文献

In lyophilized needles of Norway spruce ( Picea abies [L.] Karsten) and starting from bud break, we determined enzyme activities (sucrose phosphate synthase [SPS; EC 2.4,1.14]. sucrose synthase [SS; EC 2.4,1.13]. acid invertase [AI; EC 3.2,1.26]) and intermediates (starch, sucrose, glucose, fructose; fructose 6-phosphate, fructose 2.6-bisphosphate [F26BP]) of carbohydrate metabolism together with needle weight, shoot length, chlorophyll and protein. For up to 110 days after bud break, samples were taken twice a week from about 25-year-old trees under field conditions. At least three periods can be distinguished during needle maturation. During the first period (up to 45 days after bud break) Al showed the highest extractable activity. This coincided with very high levels of F26BP (up to 11 pmol [mg dry weight]−1) and a transient increase of starch in parallel to a decrease of sucrose. The interval between 45 and 70 days after bud break was characterized by high SS activity (ratio of fructose/glucose >1), much decreased levels of F26BP (down to below 1 pmol [mg dry weight]−1), and a pronounced increase in the dry weight/fresh weight ratio. In parallel, starch declined and soluble carbohydrates increased. Finally, needle maturation was characterized by decreasing SS and continuously increasing SPS activities, so that the ratio of SPS/SS increased more than 6-fold. AI. however, did not decline with maturation. Changes in pool sizes of metabolites and enzyme activities (AI. SPS) are consistent with current concepts on sink/source transition. SS is obviously important with regard to the synthesis of structural polysaccharides.  相似文献

Hordeum vulgare cell suspension cultures were used to modify podophyllotoxin (1) One major product (1a) and one minor product (1b) were detected in both the culture medium and cells. To optimize the yield of compound 1a, we showed that: (1) the optimal concentration of added podophyllotoxin (1) was 33 mg L-1; higher concentrations caused cell toxicity; (2) the stage of the cell cycle (lag/log/stationary) at which podophyllotoxin was added only marginally affected the yield of compound 1a; the optimal addition time was after lag phase, in which the yield of compound 1a reached ca. 76%, and (3) biotransformation of podophyllotoxin (1) was relatively slow; podophyllotoxin fed at 4 days after subculture resulted in yields of compound 1a of ca. 56, 64 and 76% after an additional 3, 6 and 10 days of incubation, respectively. Product 1a was purified and identified as isopicropodophyllone (1a) based on MS and NMR data.  相似文献
