Angiosperms possess a small family of phage-type RNA polymerase genes that arose by gene duplication from an ancestral gene encoding the mitochondrial RNA polymerase. We have isolated and sequenced the genes and cDNAs encoding two phage-type RNA polymerases, PpRpoT1 and PpRpoT2, from the moss Physcomitrella patens. PpRpoT1 comprises 19 exons and 18 introns, PpRpoT2 contains two additional introns. The N-terminal transit peptides of both polymerases are shown to confer dual-targeting of green fluorescent protein fusions to mitochondria and plastids. In vitro translation of the cDNAs revealed initiation of translation at two in-frame AUG start codons. Translation from the first methionine gives rise to a plastid-targeted polymerase, whereas initiation from the second methionine results in exclusively mitochondrial-targeted protein. Thus, dual-targeting of Physcomitrella RpoT is caused by and might be regulated by multiple translational starts. In phylogenetic analyses, the Physcomitrella RpoT polymerases form a sister group to all other phage-type polymerases of land plants. The two genes result from a gene duplication event that occurred independently from the one which led to the organellar polymerases with mitochondrial or plastid targeting properties in angiosperms. Yet, according to their conserved exon-intron structures they are representatives of the molecular evolutionary line leading to the RpoT genes of higher land plants.  相似文献
