Cloning of heat shock protein genes from the brown planthopper,Nilaparvata lugens,and the small brown planthopper,Laodelphax striatellus,and their expression in relation to thermal stress

Three heat shock protein （HSP） genes （hsp70, hsc70, hsp90） were partially cloned from the brown planthopper Nilaparvata lugens and the small brown planthopper Laodelphax striatellus （Homoptera： Delphacidae）, which are serious pests of the rice plant. Sequence comparisons at the deduced amino acid level showed that the three HSPs of planthoppers were most homologous to corresponding HSPs of dipteran and lepidopteran species. Identities of both heat shock cognate 70 and HSP90 were higher than HSP70 in both species. Identity of the HSP70 between the two planthopper species was only 81%, a value much lower than seen among fly and moth groups. Effects of heat and cold shocks were demonstrated on expression of the three hsp genes in the two planthopper species. Heat shock （40 ℃） upregulated the hsp90 level but did not change the hsc70 level in either the nymph and adult stages of either species. On the other hand, the hsp70 level was only upregulated in L. striatellus. This heat shock response was prompt and lasted only for 1 h after treatment. In contrast, cold shock at 4℃ did not change the expression levels of any hsp in either species.

【目的】褐飞虱Nilaparvata lugens(Stl)是为害水稻的重要害虫之一,温度是影响其暴发、迁飞的主要环境因子之一。本研究旨在探讨研究褐飞虱对高温胁迫适应性的热激蛋白基因表达调控模式。【方法】分别以不同的高温(30℃~40℃)处理褐飞虱雌、雄虫1 h和2 h,利用荧光定量PCR技术检测其体内的β-actin 1,β-actin2,β-actin3,28S rRNA,18S rRNA和α-2-tubulin 6个内参基因的表达量,用geN orm和BestK eeper软件分析确定最稳定表达的内参基因,并检测热胁迫后hsp70和hsp90基因在处理褐飞虱成虫体内的表达模式。【结果】geN orm软件分析结果表明,热胁迫后褐飞虱内参基因稳定性在雌虫体内为:β-actin1=β-actin328S rRNAα-2-tubulin18S rRNAβ-actin2;在雄虫体内为:β-actin1=β-actin3α-2-tubulin28S rRNA18S rRNAβ-actin2。BestK eeper软件分析结果显示,在热胁迫的雌、雄虫体内β-actin1均最稳定,18S rRNA次之,β-actin2最不稳定。两种软件分析结果基本一致。以β-actin1为校正内参基因,荧光定量PCR分析hsp70和hsp90在不同热胁迫条件下的表达模式,结果表明,各高温处理下hsp70表达量与对照26℃下的表达量没有显著性差异;而hsp90基因表达模式表现为被高温诱导上调表达,在雌、雄虫体内表达量达到最高的处理条件分别为40℃和38℃处理2 h。【结论】β-actin1基因可以作为热胁迫下褐飞虱雌雄虫体内基因表达模式分析的校正内参基因使用。褐飞虱hsp90基因能被高温诱导表达,该基因可能在褐飞虱适应热胁迫过程中起着重要的作用。     

Cloning and expression of heat shock protein genes in two whitefly species in response to thermal stress

Two whitefly species, Trialeurodes vaporariorum and Bemisia tabaci biotype B were shown to have different temperature tolerance and seasonal dynamics. To determine whether this variation in thermal tolerance is related to different expression patterns of heat shock protein (hsp) genes during temperature stress, we obtained complete cDNA sequences for hsp90, hsp70 and hsp20, and analysed their expression profiles across temperature gradients by real‐time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Six full‐length cDNAs were cloned and sequenced from these two species. The full‐length cDNAs of hsp90s contain 2166 and 2157 bp open‐reading frames (ORF) which encode proteins with calculated molecular weights of 83 013 and 82 857 Da in T. vaporariorum and B. tabaci, respectively. The 1947 and 1959 bp ORFs of whitefly hsp70s comprise 649 and 653 amino acids with the calculated masses of 70 885 and 71 008 Da in T. vaporariorum and B. tabaci, respectively. Both complete cDNAs of hsp20 of T. vaporariorum and B. tabaci contain 585 bp ORFs and deduced amino acid sequences had molecular weights of 21 559 and 21 539 Da, respectively. The hsp expression profile results showed that temperatures for onset (T_on) or maximal (T_max) induction of hsp expression in T. vaporariorum were generally 2–6°C lower than those in B. tabaci. These results suggest that the T_on (or T_max) of hsps can represent the differences in temperature tolerance of these two whitefly species, and may be used to determine their natural geographical distribution and natural population seasonal dynamics. Significant upregulation of most hsps were observed when temperature stress was lifted, except that hsp70 and hsp20 of B. tabaci did not respond to the cold stress, indicating that response to heat and cold stress may have a different genetic and physiological basis in two whitefly species. These results highlight the importance of understanding the complexity of the heat shock response across multiple isoforms while attempting to link them to whole‐organism traits such as thermal tolerance.     

Cloning and expression pattern of heat shock protein genes from the endoparasitoid wasp, Pteromalus puparum in response to environmental stresses

Six heat shock protein (HSP) genes from five HSP families in the parasitoid, Pteromalus puparum, were evaluated for their response to temperature (-15 ~ 3°C , and 30 ~ 42°C for 1 h), heavy metals (0.5 ~ 5 mM Cd(2+) and Cu(2+) for 24 h and 60 h), and starvation (24 h). Compared with other insect HSPs, all conserved motifs are found in P. puparum HSPs, and they are very similar to those of the recently sequenced ectoparasitoid Nasonia vitripennis. The temporal gene expression patterns indicated that these six HSP genes were all heat-inducible, of which hsp40 was the most inducible. The temperatures for maximal HSP induction at high and low temperature zone were 36 or 39°C and -3°C, respectively. In the hot zone, all HSP genes have the same initial temperature (33°C) for up-regulation. Low concentrations of Cd(2+) for a short-term promoted the expression of all HSP genes, but not high concentrations or long-term treatments. Cu(2+) stress for 24 h increased expression of nearly all HSP. Four HSP genes changed after starvation. We infer that all six HSP genes are sensitive to heat. This may help understand the absence of P. puparum during the summer and winter. The expression profiles of six HSP genes in P. puparum under heavy metal stress indicates that HSP is a short-term response to cellular distress or injury induced by Cd(2+) and Cu(2+).

Cloning and expression analysis of six small heat shock protein genes in the common cutworm, Spodoptera litura

Small heat shock proteins (sHsps) are probably the most diverse in structure and function among the various superfamilies of stress proteins. To explore the diverse functions of insect sHsps, six sHsp cDNAs were cloned from the midgut cDNA library of Spodoptera litura, and a phylogenetic tree was constructed based on the conserved α-crystalline domains. The expression patterns in different developmental stages and tissues, as well as in response to both thermal and 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) induction, were studied by real-time quantitative PCR. Based on sequence characteristics and phylogenetic relationships, the six SlHsps were classified into three independent groups: BmHsp20.4 like proteins (SlHsp19.7, 20.4, 20.7, 20.8), BmHsp26.6 like protein (SlHsp20), and BmHsp21.4 like protein (SlHsp21.4). All the SlHsps showed highest expression in the Malpighian tubules. The four BmHsp20.4 like protein genes were up-regulated by thermal stress and showed expression variation with development. SlHsp20 exhibited lower expression levels in both egg and larval stages than in pupal and adult stages. SlHsp21.4 retained a constant expression level during all life stages. The expression of both SlHsp20.4 and SlHsp20.8 was significantly up-regulated by 20E. These results indicate that sHsps play diverse functions in S. litura: the BmHsp20.4 like proteins are involved in both thermal adaptation and development; SlHsp20 does not respond to temperature stress but possibly plays a role in metamorphosis; SlHsp21.4 may have no direct relationship with either thermal response or development.

High temperature determines the ups and downs of small brown planthopper Laodelphax striatellus population

Small brown planthopper, Laodelphax striatellus (Fallén) numbers usually drop sharply in the summer and revive quickly in the autumn. However, it is unclear whether and how the high temperature plays a role in this process. The effects of durations of heat exposure (33°C) on life‐history traits were examined here. Exposure of adults for 1 day during the oviposition stage led to a very low survival of nymphs. The average longevity of L. striatellus exposed for 1–31 days from oviposition was significantly longer than that of the control (27°C). Short‐term (1–5 days) heat exposure of the third instar nymphs did not significantly influence eclosion, but exposure of the fourth instar nymphs significantly increased eclosion. Lifespan from egg to adult was significantly lengthened when the third instar nymphs were exposed to heat for 2–15 days, or the fourth instar were exposed for 10 days. The preoviposition period was prolonged by heat exposure of the third or fourth instar nymphs. Short‐term heat exposure of less than 3 days of the third or fourth instar nymphs did not restrict fecundity, but when the exposure duration exceeded 5 days the total eggs per female and hatchability decreased. Exposure to high temperature increased the brachypter rate of adults. In summary, low survival and slowing development under heat exposure resulted in population decline in the summer, and the relatively high fecundity and brachypter rate led to quick revival in autumn. Temperature in the summer determines the rise and fall in numbers of L. striatellus.

Endoplasmic reticulum stress induces the phosphorylation of small heat shock protein, Hsp27

There are several reports describing participation of small heat shock proteins (sHsps) in cellular protein quality control. In this study, we estimated the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced response of Hsp27 and alphaB-crystallin in mammalian cells. Treatment targeting the ER with tunicamycin or thapsigargin induced the phosphorylation of Hsp27 but not of alphaB-crystallin in U373 MG cells, increase being observed after 2-10 h and decline at 24 h. Similar phosphorylation of Hsp27 by ER stress was also observed with U251 MG and HeLa but not in COS cells and could be blocked using SB203580, an inhibitor of p38 MAP kinase. Other protein kinase inhibitors, like G?6983, PD98059, and SP600125, inhibitors of protein kinase C (PKC), p44/42 MAP kinase, and JNK, respectively, were without major influence. Prolonged treatment with tunicamycin but not thapsigargin for 48 h caused the second induction of the phosphorylation of Hsp27 in U251 MG cells. Under these conditions, the intense perinuclear staining of Hsp27, with some features of aggresomes, was observed in 10%-20% of the cells.
