Nucleotide Sequence of A High-Molecular-Weight Glutenin Gene in Wheat

Subclones of a wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. asarce) genomic recombinant containing high-molecular-weight (HMW) glutenin gene were constructed by using pUCll8/pUCll9 vectors, their successive shorter deletions were also prepared: The nucleotide sequence of about 560 bp upstream of initiation codon and total coding region was analysed by Sanger's dideoxynucleotide chain termination method. It has 3067 bp which includes 830 codons and reveals high homology with a previously reported HMW glutenin gene. This gene contains no intron but a TAA termination codon within the coding region. Whether this is a silent gene or not merits further investigation.

Immunochemical Assay for Quality and Immunological Homology of Storage Proteins in Different Closely Related Genera and Species of Wheat

An immunochemical assay using polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies of high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) in Triticum aestivum L. was carried out to determine the quality of wheat and to investigate the immunological homology of the storage proteins in cereal endosperms in different closely related wheat genera and species. The results showed that correlation between the antigen-antibody reaction and the wheat quality varied with the type of antibodies used and the quality. The correlation coeffecient was slightly higher when the polyclonal antibodies were used than monoclonal antibodies were used. The correlation coeffecient was high between the antibody binding and the protein content, and wet/dry gluten coment, with Zeleny sedimentation value, while that between antibody binding and bread characters was lower. The highest correlation coeffecient between the polyclonal antibody binding and the protein content in grains, wet and dry gluten contents, bread volume and bread ratio volume was 0. 762 0, 0. 894 2, 0. 887 3, 0.610 3, 0.459 8 and 0.474 4 respectively, while the highest correlation coeffecient between the monoclonal antibody binding and the above parameters was 0. 783 7, 0. 774 5, 0.782 2, 0. 684 1, 0. 687 3 and 0. 598 2 respectively. The immunological homologies between I-IMW-GS 1Dyl0 in common wheat and endosperm storage protein in wheat grains of different genera and species were noticed. The cross-reac-tion among Triticum aestivum L., Secale cereale, T. spelta L., Aegilops squearrosa L. and T. Turgidtan L. was stronger than that among other cereals.     

小麦高分子量谷蛋白亚基Glu-B1位点沉默基因的克隆与序列分析

二粒小麦（Triticum turgidum L．var．dicoccoides）具有极其丰富的遗传多样性,是栽培小麦品种改良的巨大基因库。在高分子量谷蛋白基因的组成上,它具有许多栽培小麦不存在的变异类型,在Glu—B1位点上的变异更大。我们利用种子贮藏蛋白的SDS—PAGE方法从原产于伊朗的二粒小麦材料PI94640中观察到缺失Glu—B1区的高分子量谷蛋白亚基。利用Glu-1Bx基因保守序列设计PCR引物,对该材料的总DNA扩增,获得了X型亚基编码基因（Glu-1Bxm）的全序列,其全长为3442bp含1070bp的启动子区。序列比较发现,Glu-1Bxm在启动子区序列与Glu—1Bx7的最为相似。而在基因编码区,我们发现Glu—1Bxm仅编码212个氨基酸,由于开放阅读框中起始密码子后第637位核苷酸发生了点突变,即编码谷酰胺的CAA突变为终止密码TAA,可能直接导致了该高分子量谷蛋白亚基的失活,这是我们在小麦Glu—B1位点基因沉默分子证据的首次报道。将Glu—1Bxm全序列与Glu—B1位点其他等位基因进行了系统树分析,发现Glu—1Bxm是较为古老的类型。本文还对该特异高分子量谷蛋白亚基变异类型对品质遗传改良研究的意义进行了讨论。

Molecular Characterization of a HMW Glutenin Subunit Allele Providing Evidence for Silencing of x-type Gene on Glu-B1

Understanding the molecular structure of high-molecular-weight glutenin subunit (HMW-GS) may provide useful evidence for the study on the improvement of quality of cultivated wheat and the evolution of Glu-1 alleles. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) shows that the subunits encoded by Glu-B1 were null, named 1Bxm, in a Triticum turgidum var. dicoccoides line PI94640. Primers based on the conserved regions in wheat HMW-GS gene promoter and coding sequences were used to amplify the genomic DNA of line PI94640. The PCR products were sequenced, and the total nucleotide sequence of 3 442 bp including upstream sequence of 1 070 bp was obtained. Compared with the reported gene sequences of Glu-1Bx alleles, the promoter region of the Glu-1Bxm showed close resemblance to 1Bx7. The Glu-1Bxm coding region differs from the other Glu-1Bx alleles for a deduced mature protein with only 212 residues, and a stop codon (TAA) at 637 bp downstream from the start codon was present, which was probably responsible for the silencing of x-type subunit genes at the Glu-B1 locus. Phylogenetic tree based on the nucleotide sequence alignment of HMW glutenin subunit genes showed that 1Bxm was the most ancient type of Glu-B1 alleles, suggesting that the evolution rates are different among Glu-1Bx genes. Further study on the contribution of the unique silenced Glu-B1 alleles to quality improvement was also discussed.

Modification of the Low Molecular Weight (LMW) Glutenin Composition of Transgenic Durum Wheat: Effects on Glutenin Polymer Size and Gluten Functionality

The low-molecular weight (LMW) glutenin subunits are major determinants of the viscoelasticity of durum wheat gluten, and therefore of its technological quality, with both quantitative effects and qualitative effects. We have modified the LMW glutenin subunit composition of the durum wheat cultivar Ofanto by expression of a transgene encoding a B-type LMW glutenin subunit and have carried out detailed analyses of two independent transformed lines in order to assess the effect of the transgene on the size distribution of the glutenin polymers and on their functional properties. In one line the expression of the transgene led to an increase in the amount of large glutenin polymers resulting in stronger and more stable dough. In the second line, however, the expression of the transgenic subunit was accompanied by decreased expression of endogenous LMW subunits with consequent detrimental effects on glutenin polymers and dough viscoelasticity. These results demonstrate that the LMW glutenin subunits contribute to the functional properties of wheat by influencing the amount and the distribution of glutenin polymers and indicate that either plant breeding or GM technology can be used to 'fine tune' the properties of durum wheat for different end uses by manipulating the amount and structures of individual LMW subunit proteins.
