蓝色色素在蓝粒小麦种子糊粉层中的生物合成途径的分子生物学机制至今仍不清楚.应用RT-PCR和RACE方法从蓝粒小麦正在发育的种子中克隆到一个编码二氢黄酮醇4-还原酶的基因(DFR).推测其为花青素生物合成途径中的一个关键基因,且与蓝粒小麦中蓝色色素形成密切相关;其开放阅读框编码一个包含354个氨基酸残基的多肽,与一些从其他植物中已克隆到的DFR有很高的同源性:大麦(94%)、水稻(83%)、玉米(84%).从长穗偃麦草(2n=70)、蓝粒小麦、浅蓝粒小麦自交产生的白粒后代小麦以及中国春的基因组中分别分离到一个全长DFR序列.经聚类分析表明DFR cDNA核甘酸序列与从中国春基因组中克隆的DFR具有100%的同源性,且与长穗偃麦草、蓝粒小麦、白粒小麦基因组中分离的DFR均有很高的同源性.4个DFR基因组DNA均含有3个内含子,且它们之间的差异主要在内含子区,表明该基因在进化上很保守.经Southern杂交分析,DFR在小麦中至少有3~5个拷贝,不同小麦材料间未见明显差异,但与长穗偃麦草有明显差异,属于一个DFR超基因家族.Northern分析表明该DFR在蓝粒和白粒种子的不同发育时期的表达存在明显差异,都在开花后大约18 d表达最强,在同一时期的蓝白种子中,DFR在蓝粒种子中的表达量高于白粒.DFR转录本在小麦和长穗偃麦草的幼叶中积累多,但在芽鞘中的表达显著低于幼叶中;在小麦的根和长穗偃麦草的发育种子中均未检测到DFR的表达.推测蓝粒小麦中可能存在调控DFR在蓝粒小麦中表达的调控基因,类似于玉米花青素合成途径中的调节基因.  相似文献

对红色、黄色、粉紫色和白色菊花品种不同开放度的花序舌状花中CHS、CHI、DFR、F3H、F3′H和3GT基因的表达量进行了相对定量分析。结果表显示:6个基因的表达因不同花色、不同发育阶段而异。‘钟山红鹰’(红色)中各基因的表达量均较高,且均在Ⅱ(松蕾期)或Ⅲ(半开期)期达到峰值,其中DFR、3GT基因的表达量远高于其他花色品种。‘金陵娇黄’(黄色)中CHS、CHI基因表达量较高,且Ⅰ(紧蕾期)、Ⅱ期表达量高于Ⅲ、Ⅳ(盛开期)期;3GT、DFR基因表达量分别高或低于‘金陵笑靥’(粉紫色)品种中相应基因的表达量,但均比红色品种低;F3H在4个品种中表达量最低,F3′H表达量接近或略低于红色或粉紫色品种,且各阶段表达水平较稳定。‘金陵笑靥’中DFR表达量仅次于‘钟山红鹰’,3GT和CHS表达量低于红色与黄色品种。‘钟山雪桂’(白色)中各基因仅有微量表达,除F3H外各基因的表达量明显低于其他花色品种。研究表明,花色素结构基因DFR、3GT是菊花花色素合成的关键基因,DFR很可能是限速关键基因,一定表达水平的CHS、CHI也是菊花花色素合成所必须的,F3H基因与花色素合成不存在直接相关。  相似文献

To elucidate gene regulation of flower colour formation, the gene expressions of the enzymes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis were investigated in correlation with their product during floral development in lisianthus. Full-length cDNA clones of major responsible genes in the central flavonoid biosynthetic pathway, including chalcone synthase (CHS), chalcone isomerase (CHI), flavanone 3-hydroxylase (F3H), flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase (F3'5'H), dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR), anthocyanidin synthase (ANS), and flavonol synthase (FLS), were isolated and characterized. In lisianthus, the stage of the accumulation of flavonols and anthocyanins was shown to be divided clearly. The flavonol content increased prior to anthocyanin accumulation during floral development and declined when anthocyanin began to accumulate. CHS, CHI, and F3H were necessary for both flavonol and anthocyanin biosynthesis and were coordinately expressed throughout all stages of floral development; their expressions were activated independently at the stages corresponding to flavonol accumulation and anthocyanin accumulation, respectively. Consistent with flavonol and anthocyanin accumulation patterns, FLS, a key enzyme in flavonol biosynthesis, was expressed prior to the expression of the genes involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis. The genes encoding F3'5'H, DFR, and ANS were expressed at later stages, just before pigmentation. The genes responsible for the flavonoid pathways branching to anthocyanins and flavonols were strictly regulated and were coordinated temporally to correspond to the biosynthetic order of their respective enzymes in the pathways, as well as in specific organs. In lisianthus, FLS and DFR, at the position of branching to flavonols and anthocyanins, were supposed to play a critical role in regulation of each biosynthesis.  相似文献

祝志欣  鲁迎青 《植物学报》2016,51(1):107-119
花青素是种子植物呈色的重要色素, 由一系列结构基因编码的酶(CHS、CHI、F3H、F3'H、F3'5'H、DFR、ANS和3GT)催化而成, 随后经过各种修饰被转运至液泡等部位储存。各类器官中差异表达的MYB、bHLH和WDR三种调控因子通过形成MBW复合体直接正调控以上结构基因的表达。这个过程涉及的基因变异常会导致植物的各种颜色变异。在生活中人们广泛利用这些变异品种, 取其丰富色味。造成颜色变异的具体分子机制在很多情况下还不清楚, 但日益积累的个例研究为其中的规律性提供了基础数据。该文概述了花青素的合成、转运过程及其转录调控机制, 探讨了研究颜色变异品种的常用思路及方法。在总结近年工作的基础上, 对生活中常见蔬菜、水果和花卉的颜色变异品种的分子机制进行了综述。  相似文献

Modern biotechnology has developed powerful tools for genetic engineering and flower colours are an excellent object to study possibilities and limitations of engineering strategies. Osteospermum hybrida became a popular ornamental plant within the last 20 years. Many cultivars display rose to lilac flower colours mainly based on delphinidin-derived anthocyanins. The predominant synthesis of delphinidin derivatives is referred to a strong endogenous flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase (F3'5'H) activity. Furthermore, since dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR) of Osteospermum does not convert dihydrokaempferol (DHK) to leucopelargonidin, synthesis of pelargonidin-based anthocyanins is naturally not realised. In order to redirect anthocyanin biosynthesis in Osteospermum towards pelargonidin derivatives, we introduced cDNAs coding for DFRs which efficiently convert DHK to LPg. But neither the expression of Gerbera hybrida DFR nor of Fragaria x ananassa DFR - the latter is characterised by an unusual high substrate preference for DHK - altered anthocyanin composition in flowers of transgenic plants. However, chemical inhibition of F3'5'H activity in ray florets of dfr transgenic plants resulted in the accumulation of pelargonidin derivatives. Accordingly, retransformation of a transgenic plant expressing Gerbera DFR with a construct for RNAi-mediated suppression of F3'5'H activity resulted in double transgenic plants accumulating predominantly pelargonidin derivatives in flowers.  相似文献

A Novel Method to Clone P450s with Modified Single-Specific-Primer PCR   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
We present a method to identify cDNA clones of a cytochrome P450 enzyme. Flavonoid-3', 5'-Hydroxylase (F3',5'H), the key enzyme for the expression of blue or purple color in flowers, was cloned as an example. We have made a catalog of cDNA fragments encoding conserved regions of P450s for petunia (Petunia hybrida Vilm.) petals. Single specific primers were designed for these cDNA sequences and RT-PCRs were performed with cDNA templates. The amplified bands were tested for linkage to the delphinidin producing phenotype using a backcrossed population that had been prepared to have a genetic background of cyanidin-type petunia but segregated for the hydroxylation at the B-ring of anthocyanin. We were successful in amplifying a cDNA fragment that has close linkage to the F3',5'H gene. A full length cDNA clone of the F3',5'H gene was isolated using the amplified fragment as a probe.  相似文献

Anthocyanin synthesis in Vitis vinifera L. cv Shiraz grape berries began 10 weeks postflowering and continued throughout berry ripening. Expression of seven genes of the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway (phenylalanine ammonia lyase [PAL], chalcone synthase [CHS], chalcone isomerase [CHI], flavanone-3-hydroxylase [F3H], dihydroflavonol 4-reductase [DFR], leucoanthocyanidin dioxygen-ase [LDOX], and UDP glucose-flavonoid 3-o-glucosyl transferase [UFGT]) was determined. In flowers and grape berry skins, expression of all of the genes, except UFGT, was detected up to 4 weeks postflowering, followed by a reduction in this expression 6 to 8 weeks postflowering. Expression of CHS, CHI, F3H, DFR, LDOX, and UFGT then increased 10 weeks postflowering, coinciding with the onset of anthocyanin synthesis. In grape berry flesh, no PAL or UFGT expression was detected at any stage of development, but CHS, CHI, F3H, DFR, and LDOX were expressed up to 4 weeks postflowering. These results indicate that the onset of anthocyanin synthesis in ripening grape berry skins coincides with a coordinated increase in expression of a number of genes in the anthocyanin biosynthetic pathway, suggesting the involvement of regulatory genes. UFGT is regulated independently of the other genes, suggesting that in grapes the major control point in this pathway is later than that observed in maize, petunia, and snapdragon.  相似文献

利用荧光定量PCR技术分析‘京优’葡萄果实成熟过程中,花色苷生物合成途径相关酶基因mRNA转录水平的变化以及乙烯利处理对果皮中花色苷含量和关键酶基因转录水平的影响。结果显示,葡萄果实发育进入着色期,花色苷合成过程中主要相关基因(CHSsCHIsF3HsF3HF35HDFRLDOXUFGTOMTGST)和转录因子(MybA1MybA1-2)转录水平都显著提高,其中UFGTGSTMybA1CHSsCHIsF3Hs基因家族中的CHS3CHI2F3H2随着花色苷合成而大量转录;乙烯利处理能够增强花色苷合成相关基因的转录,使其转录时期前移和转录水平提高,其中对GSTUFGTMybA1转录的促进作用最明显。相关性分析表明,花色苷合成与一些花色苷合成相关基因(CHS3CHI2F3H2F35HUFGTGST)和转录因子(MybA1)的转录水平呈显著或极显著正相关;与CHS1CHS2CHI1F3H1DFRF3HLDOXOMT转录水平的相关性均不显著。本研究结果为进一步阐明花色苷生物合成机理和花色苷类色素的生产应用提供一定的理论依据。  相似文献

Flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase (F3'H) and flavonoid 3',5'-hydroxylase (F3'5'H) are cytochrome P450 enzymes and determine the B-ring hydroxylation pattern of flavonoids by introducing hydroxyl groups at the 3'- or the 3'- and 5'-position, respectively. Sequence identity between F3'H and F3'5'H is generally low since their divergence took place early in the evolution of higher plants. However, in the Asteraceae the family-specific evolution of an F3'5'H from an F3'H precursor occurred, and consequently sequence identity is substantially higher. We used this phenomenon for alignment studies, in order to identify regions which could be involved in determining substrate specificity and functionality. Subsequent construction and expression of chimeric genes indicated that substrate specificity of F3'H and F3'5'H is determined near the N-terminal end and the functional difference between these two enzymes near the C-terminal end. The impact on function of individual amino acids located in substrate recognition site 6 (SRS6) was further tested by site-directed mutagenesis. Most interestingly, a conservative Thr to Ser exchange at position 487 conferred additional 5'-hydroxylation activity to recombinant Gerbera hybrida F3'H, whereas the reverse substitution transformed recombinant Osteospermum hybrida F3'5'H into an F3'H with low remaining 5'-hydroxylation activity. Since the physicochemical properties of Thr and Ser are highly similar, the difference in size appears to be the main factor contributing to functional difference. The results further suggest that relatively few amino acids exchanges were required for the evolutionary extension of 3'- to 3',5'-hydroxylation activity.  相似文献

Virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) is a powerful tool for functional analysis of genes in plants. A wide-host-range VIGS vector, which was developed based on the Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV), was tested for its ability to silence endogenous genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis in soybean. Symptomless infection was established using a pseudorecombinant virus, which enabled detection of specific changes in metabolite content by VIGS. It has been demonstrated that the yellow seed coat phenotype of various cultivated soybean lines that lack anthocyanin pigmentation is induced by natural degradation of chalcone synthase ( CHS ) mRNA. When soybean plants with brown seed coats were infected with a virus that contains the CHS gene sequence, the colour of the seed coats changed to yellow, which indicates that the naturally occurring RNA silencing is reproduced by VIGS. In addition, CHS VIGS consequently led to a decrease in isoflavone content in seeds. VIGS was also tested on the putative flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase ( F3'H ) gene in the pathway. This experiment resulted in a decrease in the content of quercetin relative to kaempferol in the upper leaves after viral infection, which suggests that the putative gene actually encodes the F3'H protein. In both experiments, a marked decrease in the target mRNA and accumulation of short interfering RNAs were detected, indicating that sequence-specific mRNA degradation was induced. The present report is a successful demonstration of the application of VIGS for genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis in plants; the CMV-based VIGS system provides an efficient tool for functional analysis of soybean genes.  相似文献

大豆种皮色相关基因研究进展   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Song J  Guo Y  Yu LJ  Qiu LJ 《遗传》2012,34(6):687-694
大豆种皮色在从野生大豆到栽培大豆的演变过程中逐渐从黑色变成黄色,是重要的形态标记,因此,大豆种皮色相关基因研究无论对进化理论还是育种实践都具有重要的意义。种皮颜色是通过各种花色苷的沉积而形成的。虽然很多植物色素沉积的分子调控机制比较明晰,但大豆中控制种皮颜色形成的基因尚未被完全了解。文章综述了控制大豆种皮色基因与位点的相关研究进展,主要有I、T、W1、R、O 5个经典遗传位点,其中I位点被定位在第8号染色体(A2连锁群)一个富含查尔酮合成酶(CHS)的区域,CHS基因在大豆中是多基因家族且同源性较高;定位于第6号染色体(C2连锁群)T位点的基因F3’H已被克隆和转基因验证,由于碱基缺失导致所编码的氨基酸缺少了保守域GGEK,从而不能与血红素结合而丧失功能;R位点定位在第9号染色体(K连锁群)A668-1与K387-1两标记之间,可能是R2R3类MYB转录因子,也可能是UDP类黄酮3-O糖基转移酶;O位点定位在第8号染色体(A2连锁群)Satt207与Satt493两标记之间,其分子特性尚不清楚;W1位点可能由F3’5’H基因控制遗传。  相似文献

Eutypine, 4-hydroxy-3-(3-methyl-3-butene-1-ynyl) benzaldehyde, is a toxin produced by Eutypa lata, the causal agent of Eutypa dieback in grapevine. The effect of the toxin on anthocyanin synthesis has been investigated in Vitis vinifera cv. Gamay cell cultures. At concentrations higher than 200 micromol/L, eutypine reduced anthocyanin accumulation in cells. The reduction in anthocyanin accumulation was proportional to the eutypine concentrations and HPLC analysis showed that eutypine affected the levels of all anthocyanins. The effect of eutypine application on the expression of five genes of the anthocyanin biosynthesis pathway, including chalcone synthase (CHS), flavonone-3-hydroxylase (F3H), dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR), leucoanthocyanidin dioxygenase (LDOX), and UDP glucose-flavonoid 3-O-glucosyl transferase (UFGT) was determined. Expression of CHS, F3H, DFR and LDOXwas not affected by the addition of eutypine to grapevine cell cultures. In contrast, expression of the UFGT gene was dramatically inhibited by the toxin. These results suggest that in grapevine cell cultures, eutypine strongly affects anthocyanin accumulation by inhibiting UFGT gene expression. The mechanism of action of eutypine is discussed.  相似文献
