Taro bacilliform virus (TaBV) is a pararetrovirus of the genus Badnavirus which infects the monocotyledonous plant, taro ( Colocasia esculenta). A region of the TaBV genome spanning nucleotides 6,281 to 12 (T1200), including the 3' end of open reading frame 3 (ORF 3) and the intergenic region to the end of the tRNA(met)-binding site, was tested for promoter activity along with four different 5' deletion fragments (T600, T500, T250 and T100). In transient assays, only the T1200, T600, T500 fragments were shown to have promoter activity in taro leaf, banana suspension cells and tobacco callus. When these three promoters were evaluated in stably transformed, in vitro-grown transgenic banana and tobacco plants, all were found to drive near-constitutive expression of either the green fluorescent protein or beta-glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene in the stem (or pseudostem), leaves and roots, with strongest expression observed in the vascular tissue. In transgenic banana leaves, the T600 promoter directed four-fold greater GUS activity than that of the T1200, T500 and the maize polyubiquitin-1 promoters. In transgenic tobacco leaves, the levels of GUS expression directed by the three promoters was between four- and ten-fold lower than that of the double Cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter. These results indicate that the TaBV-derived promoters may be useful for the high-level constitutive expression of transgenes in either monocotyledonous or dicotyledonous species. 相似文献

Promoters for pregenomic RNA of banana streak badnavirus are active for transgene expression in monocot and dicot plants 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Two putative promoters from Australian banana streak badnavirus (BSV) isolates were analysed for activity in different plant species. In transient expression systems the My (2105 bp) and Cv (1322 bp) fragments were both shown to have promoter activity in a wide range of plant species including monocots (maize, barley, banana, millet, wheat, sorghum), dicots (tobacco, canola, sunflower, Nicotiana benthamiana, tipu tree), gymnosperm (Pinus radiata) and fern (Nephrolepis cordifolia). Evaluation of the My and Cv promoters in transgenic sugarcane, banana and tobacco plants demonstrated that these promoters could drive high-level expression of either the green fluorescent protein (GFP) or the -glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene (uidA) in vegetative plant cells. In transgenic sugarcane plants harbouring the Cv promoter, GFP expression levels were comparable or higher (up to 1.06% of total soluble leaf protein as GFP) than those of plants containing the maize ubiquitin promoter (up to 0.34% of total soluble leaf protein). GUS activities in transgenic in vitro-grown banana plants containing the My promoter were up to seven-fold stronger in leaf tissue and up to four-fold stronger in root and corm tissue than in plants harbouring the maize ubiquitin promoter. The Cv promoter showed activities that were similar to the maize ubiquitin promoter in in vitro-grown banana plants, but was significantly reduced in larger glasshouse-grown plants. In transgenic in vitro-grown tobacco plants, the My promoter reached activities close to those of the 35S promoter of cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV), while the Cv promoter was about half as active as the CaMV 35S promoter. The BSV promoters for pregenomic RNA represent useful tools for the high-level expression of foreign genes in transgenic monocots. 相似文献

Intron-containing fragments derived from the 5′ untranslated regions of the maize ubi1, maize adh1, rice act1 and sugarcane rbcS genes were tested for their enhancing effects on the banana bunchy top virus DNA-6 promoter (BT6.1) in banana (Musa spp. cv. Bluggoe) embryogenic cells. The rice act1 and maize ubi1 introns provided the highest levels of intron-mediated enhancement of GUS expression, increasing native BT6.1 promoter activity
by about 300-fold and 100-fold, respectively. The sugarcane rbcS intron increased expression about tenfold, whereas the adh1 intron had no significant effect. In regenerated transgenic banana plants, the ubi1 intron significantly enhanced BT6.1 promoter activity to levels similar to that of the CaMV 35 S promoter and did not appear
to affect the tissue specificity of the promoter.

A promoter from sugarcane bacilliform badnavirus drives transgene expression in banana and other monocot and dicot plants 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

A 1369 bp DNA fragment (Sc) was isolated from a full-length clone of sugarcane bacilliform badnavirus (ScBV) and was shown to have promoter activity in transient expression assays using monocot (banana, maize, millet and sorghum) and dicot plant species (tobacco, sunflower, canola and Nicotiana benthamiana). This promoter was also tested for stable expression in transgenic banana and tobacco plants. These experiments showed that this promoter could drive high-level expression of the -glucuronidase (GUS) reporter gene in most plant cells. The expression level was comparable to the maize ubiquitin promoter in standardised transient assays in maize. In transgenic banana plants the expression levels were variable for different transgenic lines but was generally comparable with the activities of both the maize ubiquitin promoter and the enhanced cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter. The Sc promoter appears to express in a near-constitutive manner in transgenic banana and tobacco plants. The promoter from sugarcane bacilliform virus represents a useful tool for the high-level expression of foreign genes in both monocot and dicot transgenic plants that could be used similarly to the CaMV 35S or maize polyubiquitin promoter. 相似文献

A putative promoter fragment of a Pinus radiata gene encoding a multi-functional O-methyltransferase (AEOMT) was isolated from genomic DNA. Sequence analysis revealed a number of putative cis elements, including AC-rich motifs common in promoters of genes related to the phenylpropanoid pathway. The isolated promoter was fused to the GUS reporter gene and its expression profile analyzed in transgenic tobacco and in transient transformation experiments with P. radiata embryogenic and xylogenic tissue. The promoter conferred weak expression in embryogenic tissue but caused strong GUS activity in both ray parenchyma cells and developing tracheary elements of xylem strips. Histochemical analysis in transgenic tobacco plants revealed that the AEOMT promoter induced GUS expression in cell types associated with lignification, such as developing vessels, phloem and wood fibers and xylem parenchyma as well as in non-lignifying phloem parenchyma. The isolated promoter was activated by challenge of the tissue with a fungal pathogen. Our results also indicate that the control of lignin-related gene expression is conserved and can be compared in evolutionarily distant species such as tobacco and pine. 相似文献

The intergenic regions of banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) DNA-1 to -5 were fused to the green fluorescent protein (GFP) and
uidA reporter genes and assessed for promoter activity in transgenic banana (Musa spp. cv. Bluggoe). Promoter activity associated with the BBTV-derived promoters was transgene dependent with greatest activity
observed using the GFP reporter. The BBTV promoters (BT1 to BT5) directed expression primarily in vascular-associated cells,
although levels of activity varied between individual promoters. Promoters BT4 and BT5 directed the highest levels of GFP
expression, while activity from BT1, BT2 and BT3 promoters was considerably weaker. Intron-mediated enhancement, using the
maize polyubiquitin 1 (ubi1) intron, generated a significant increase in GUS expression directed by the BBTV promoters in transgenic plants.

We have used nuclear extracts prepared from tobacco leaf tissue to characterize a factor binding site, designated as-2 (activating sequence-2), at the -100 region of the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter. The activity of this factor, called ASF-2 (activating sequence factor-2), is not detected in tobacco root extracts. as-2 includes two GT motifs with sequence homology to the SV40 enhancer core A element and the Box II element of pea rbcS. Nevertheless, oligomers of these sequence elements do not compete for ASF-2 binding in gel retardation assays, indicating that the GT motifs may not be involved. Methylation interference studies identify two guanines (G93 and G98) that are required for interaction with ASF-2. Sequences surrounding these two critical guanines display homologies to a GATA repeat conserved among several light-responsive promoters. One such sequence from a petunia Cab promoter is able to compete with as-2 for factor binding. In transgenic plants, a tetramer of as-2 is able to confer leaf expression when fused 5' to the -90 derivative of the 35S promoter. The expression is not dependent on light and, thus, the as-2 tetramer does not function as a light-responsive element in this context. Histochemical localization of the reporter gene product suggests that the as-2 tetramer directs expression in trichomes, vascular elements, and epidermal and mesophyll cells. 相似文献

The study reports the transient expression of gusA gene in embryogenic cells using three banana derived fruit-specific promoters. Banana embryogenic cells were transformed with a pCAMBIA-1301 derived plasmid construct harboring gusA gene driven by either chitinase, glucanase or expansin promoters derived from banana. The transient expression of ??-glucuronidase was studied 5?days after co-cultivation with Agrobacterium harboring the expression plasmids. The transformed embryogenic cells were treated with different inducers of ethylene such as ethephon, methyl jasmonate, methyl salicylate, abscisic acid and indole acetic acid. The maximum expression of 64099.78?pmoles 4-MU/h/mg total protein was noted with expansin promoter when the cells were treated with the combination of ethephon (0.25?mM) and MJ (10?mM). The results suggest that these promoters can be used to achieve fruit-specific expression of useful transgenes in banana. The results should prove to be an important guide for short term expression studies for promoter validation and gene screening. 相似文献

Analysis of the promoter activity of late embryogenesis abundant protein genes in barley seedlings under conditions of water deficit 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Promoters of the late embryogenesis abundant protein genes, HVA1s, Dhn8s and Dhn4s from barley and wsi18j and rab16Bj from rice, were analysed in barley seedlings to assess their strength and timing of induction under water deficit conditions using a transient expression system. Of the drought-inducible promoters, Dhn4s exhibited the highest activity, followed by HVA1s, wsi18j and rab16Bj. Dehydration-induced #-glucuronidase expression levels driven by the Dhn4s, HVA1s and wsi18j promoters were higher than or comparable to that induced by a strong constitutive rice Act1 promoter. The expression patterns of wsi18j and Dhn8s differed from those of their homologous genes (wsi18 and Dhn8): the wsi18j promoter was strongly induced by abscisic acid, while the Dhn8s promoter was highly active in hydrated seedlings. HVA1s- and wsi18j-driven green fluorescent protein expression was induced within 1 h of drying under water deficit stress, while Dhn4s promoter activity was not detectable until 3 h, thus showing a difference in the timing of induction. 相似文献

Functional analysis of cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter: re-evaluation of the role of subdomains B5, B4 and B2 in promoter activity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

The cauliflower mosaic virus 35S (35S) promoter is used extensively for transgene expression in plants. The promoter has been delineated into different subdomains based on deletion analysis and gain-of-function studies. However, cis -elements important for promoter activity have been identified only in the domains B1 ( as-2 element), A1 ( as-1 element) and minimal promoter (TATA box). No cis -elements have been described in subdomains B2–B5, although these are reported to be important for the overall activity of the 35S promoter. We have re-evaluated the contribution of three of these subdomains, namely B5, B4 and B2, to 35S promoter activity by developing several modified promoters. The analysis of β-glucuronidase gene expression driven by the modified promoters in different tissues of primary transgenic tobacco lines, as well as in seedlings of the T1 generation, revealed new facets about the functional organization of the 35S promoter. This study suggests that: (i) the 35S promoter truncated up to –301 functions in a similar manner to the –343 (full-length) 35S promoter; (ii) the Dof core and I-box core observed in the subdomain B4 are important for 35S promoter activity; and (iii) the subdomain B2 is essential for maintaining an appropriate distance between the proximal and distal regions of the 35S promoter. These observations will aid in the development of functional synthetic 35S promoters with decreased sequence homology. Such promoters can be used to drive multiple transgenes without evoking promoter homology-based gene silencing when attempting gene stacking. 相似文献

Cotton leaf curl Burewala virus (CLCuBuV), belonging to the genus Begomovirus, possesses single-stranded monopartite DNA genome. The bidirectional promoters representing Rep and coat protein (CP) genes of CLCuBuV were characterized and their efficacy was assayed. Rep and CP promoters of CLCuBuV and 35S promoter of Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) were fused with β-glucuronidase (GUS) and green fluorescent protein (GFP) reporter genes. GUS activity in individual plant cells driven by Rep, CP and 35S promoters was estimated using real-time PCR and fluorometric GUS assay. Histochemical staining of GUS in transformed tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi) leaves showed highest expression driven by Rep promoter followed by 35S promoter and CP promoter. The expression level of GUS driven by Rep promoter in transformed tobacco plants was shown to be two to four-fold higher than that of 35S promoter, while the expression by CP promoter was slightly lower. Further, the expression of GFP was monitored in agroinfiltrated leaves of N. benthamiana, N. tabacum and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) plants using confocal laser scanning microscopy. Rep promoter showed strong consistent transient expression in tobacco and cotton leaves as compared to 35S promoter. The strong constitutive CLCuBuV Rep promoter developed in this study could be very useful for high level expression of transgenes in a wide variety of plant cells. 相似文献
