一氧化氮参与调节盐胁迫下脱落酸诱导的小麦幼苗叶片脯氨酸的累积

不同浓度(0.01～5.00mmol/L)的外源一氧化氮(NO)供体硝普钠(SNP)以浓度依赖性的性式诱导150mmol/LNaCl胁迫下小麦(Triticum aestivum L.cv.Yangmai 158)幼苗叶片脯氨酸的累积.其中0.1 mmol/L的SNP效果最明显,而结合采用NO清除剂c-PTIO和血红蛋白的处理均分别逆转了该效应.研究结果还发现:0.1 mmol/L SNP诱导的脯氨酸累积还可能有利于盐胁迫下小麦幼苗的保水性;0.1 mmol/L的SNP显著激活了内源ABA的合成,而结合血红蛋白的处理则证实,在外源ABA诱导脯氨酸累积的过程中NO可能作用于ABA信号分子的下游,但NO和ABA信号分子在此诱导反应中不存在累积效应.进一步研究脯氨酸合成和降解的酶促反应途径,发现外源NO处理前4天内可能主要是通过提高△'-吡咯啉-5-羧酸合成酶(P5CS)的活性来促进脯氨酸的合成,以后直至第8天主要是通过抑制脯氨酸脱氢酶(ProDH)的活性来抑制脯氨酸的降解;ABA对于P5CS和ProDH活性的调节能力弱于NO.此外,Ca2 在NO诱导的盐胁迫下小麦叶片脯氨酸累积的信号分子途径中起重要的介导作用.

NaCl对小麦苗叶片脯氨酸氧化酶活性和游离脯氨酸累积的影响

在含NaCl营养液中培养的小麦幼苗较之无NaCl营养液中的幼苗。其脯氨酸氧化酶活性降低,而游离脯氨酸含量则升高;培养液的渗透势越低,培养时间越长,则脯氨酸氧化酶的活性越低,且游离脯氨酸的含量越高。去除胁迫后酶活性恢复,脯氯酸含量下降。不同渗透剂对氧化酶活性抑制强弱顺序为MgCl_2>NaCl>甘露醇,引起脯氨酸累积效应的强度顺序为MgCl_2>NaCl>甘露醇。超微结构显示,高NaCl浓度下部分线粒体结构受损伤,膜和嵴部分消失。     

水分胁迫下植物体内游离脯氨酸的累积及ABA在其中的作用

无论是土壤干旱,还是NaCl或PEG所引起的水分胁迫,都使植物体内游离脯氨酸含量明显升高。不同小麦品种反应不一,如对干旱敏感的甘麦8号比抗旱的和尚头、定西24在NaCl和PEG胁迫下游离脯氨酸水平增高得更快,而后者持续的时间较长。土壤干旱胁迫下,小麦各品种之间脯氨酸含量无明显差异。中生植物倒挂金钟(Fuchsia hybrida)和沙生植物猪毛蒿(Artemisia scoparia)在水分胁迫下游离脯氮酸含量均有增高。把小麦幼苗放在5×10~(-5)M ABA溶液中浸根处理,无论在正常或胁迫情况下均能促进游离脯氨酸含量的增高。     

水分胁迫下内生真菌感染对黑麦草叶内游离脯氨酸和脱落酸含量的影响

以黑麦草为实验对象,研究了干旱胁迫条件下内生真菌感染对植株叶片含水量和叶内游离脯氨酸含量的影响,同时对渗透胁迫条件下植株叶内ABA含量的变化进行了分析。结果表明：①内生真菌的感染有助于使叶片保持较高的含水量;②在两种形式的水分胁迫下,。前期至中期高感染种群的叶片游离脯氨酸含量低于感染种群,而在末期则有高出低感染种群的趋势;③内生真菌感染对黑麦草叶内ABA累积的正效应只发生在轻度渗透胁迫下的较短时间范围内。     

聚乙二醇胁迫对甘蔗伸长期间叶中脯氨酸积累及其代谢关键酶活性的影响

甘蔗品种‘桂糖119’(‘GT119’)、‘新台糖16号’(‘ROC16’)、‘新台糖22号’(‘ROC22’)为材料,在甘蔗伸长期用25%聚乙二醇(PEG)6000淋灌于根部。第4天,‘GT119’与‘ROC16’叶中游离脯氨酸含量明显上升,但‘ROC22’在处理后6d内其含量增加仍不明显。吡咯啉-5-羧酸合成酶活性变化因品种而异,‘ROC22’在处理后第6天才明显上升,其他2个品种则在胁迫处理1d后即明显提高。鸟氨酸转氨酶活性变化不明显。‘ROC22’在处理1d后其脯氨酸脱氢酶活性稍有提高,而其他2个品种则下降。     

NaCl胁迫下海马齿(Sesuvium portulacastrum L.)植株内游离脯氨酸的合成积累途径

以海马齿(Sesuvium portulacastrum L.)为材料,测定了在6个NaCl胁迫水平上(0、0.2、0.4、0.6、0.8、1.0mol· L-1)的植株内游离脯氨酸的含量及其δ-OAT、PSCS、POD、SOD等酶的活性.结果表明:在NaCl胁迫下,海马齿植株内游离脯氨酸积累量比CK显著地增多了14.5％～33.5％,δ-OAT和P5CS活性分别比对照(CK)增强3.1％～10.1％和26.7％ ～46.1％,因此,在NaCl胁迫下海马齿植株内游离脯氨酸合成积累的两个途径均被启动和发生合成积累作用,并表现出以Glu→Pro途径为主,Orn→Pro途径为辅;在5个NaCl胁迫水平上,海马齿植株内游离脯氨酸有显著的积累效应,在0.6 mol·L-1处理水平时达到积累量的高峰值.同时,δ-OAT、P5CS、POD、SOD等酶的活性呈现出与游离脯氨酸积累量有大致相同的变化趋势.     

外源脯氨酸对盐胁迫下甜瓜幼苗硝酸还原的影响

采用营养液水培方法,以＂雪美＂品种甜瓜（Cucumis melo L.）为材料,研究了外源脯氨酸（Proline）对盐胁迫下甜瓜幼苗叶片和根系硝酸还原的影响。结果表明：（1）盐胁迫提高了甜瓜幼苗叶片和根系内铵态氮（NH4＋-N）和可溶性蛋白含量;降低了硝态氮（NO-3-N）含量和硝酸还原酶（nitrate reductase,NR）活性。（2）外源施用脯氨酸明显地提高了盐胁迫下甜瓜幼苗叶片和根系内NO-3-N和可溶性蛋白含量;降低了盐胁迫下甜瓜幼苗叶片和根系内NH＋4-N含量;增强了盐胁迫下甜瓜幼苗体内NR活性。研究结果表明,外源脯氨酸可以通过调节甜瓜幼苗体内硝酸还原酶活性和氮化合物含量来缓解盐胁迫对甜瓜幼苗植株的伤害。     

Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase from Cucurbita cotyledons

Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase, which required reduced pyridine nucleotide and Δ′-pyrroline-5-carboxylate for proline synthesis, was isolated from pumpkin cotyledons. The enzyme was found in the soluble fraction and had a 4.5-fold greater activity with NADH than NADPH. The enzyme was inhibited by NH₂OH, NADP, ATP and slightly by proline. Glutathione or pyridoxal-5-phosphate had little effect on enzyme activity. The enzyme had a pH optimum between 7·0 and 7·6 and was not inhibited by high concentrations of NADH or Δ′-pyrroline-5-carboxylate.     

Proline dehydrogenase and pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase from pumpkin cotyledons

Activity of proline dehydrogenase and pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase was greatest after 5 and 7 days germination in green and etiolated cotyledons respectively of pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Poir. cv. Dickinson Field). The ratio of pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase to proline dehydrogenase activity was constant throughout germination. Both enzymes were purified 30-fold but the ratio pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase—proline dehydrogenase activity was constant throughout purification. However, this ratio decreased with storage, especially in purified preparations. Both enzymes were stable at high temperature and the ratio pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase—proline dehydrogenase remained unchanged on heating. Proline dehydrogenase and pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase were inhibited by sodium bisulfite and cysteine. ATP, ADP and NADP caused inhibition of both enzymes. Proline dehydrogenase utilized NAD but not NADP. Pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase had a 2.5-fold greater activity with NADH than NADPH. Most of the data presented suggest that proline dehydrogenase and pyrroline-5-carboxylate reductase activities occur on the same protein molecule.     

Pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid reductase from soybean leaves

Pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid reductase was purified 40-fold from soybean leaves (Glycine max L. var Corsoy). The enzyme was fairly unstable, had a broad pH optimum, and was inactivated by heat and acid; NADH and NADPH both served as cofactors. It had a higher activity with NADH (about 4 ×) compared to NADPH, but a lower K_m for NADPH. NADP⁺ inhibited both the NADH- and NADPH-dependent activity. Sulfhydryl group blocking agents reduced the activity as did the carbonyl blocking agent, NH₂OH. Thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid and phosphate inhibited the enzyme and proline inhibited only at high concentrations. ATP, GTP, and CTP were all effective inhibitors of both the NADH- and NADPH-dependent activity. Phosphorylated nucleotide inhibition was reversed by Mg²⁺ ions.     

Complementation Cloning and Characterization of the Pyrroline 5-Carboxylate Reductase Gene from Drosophila melanogaster

The first insect cDNA and genomic sequences encoding pyrroline 5-carboxylate reductase (EC 1.5.1.2) have been isolated from Drosophila melanogaster. The cDNA sequence was identified by interspecies complementation of an E. coli proline auxotroph and encodes a protein 280 amino acids in length with 25–41% identity to pyrroline 5-carboxylate reductases isolated from other organisms. The corresponding gene is single copy and is located at cytological position 91E-F, and in one of the P1 clones in that region. With a single 61-bp intron, and an impressively small 135- to 200-bp region that presumably acts as a bidirectional promoter, the gene itself shows remarkable economy. The calculated molecular weight of 29,700 predicts that the native enzyme is likely an octomer. Sequencing of the promoter region and expression studies, as well as the known function of the enzyme in redox regulation and the high levels of free proline in insects, suggest that this housekeeping gene encodes an enzyme with a crucial role in intermediary metabolism.     

盐胁迫下小麦甜菜碱和脯氨酸含量变化

运用高效液相色谱-质谱(HPLC-MS)联用技术分析了耐盐性强、中、弱3个小麦品种SW12、宁春4号和中国春苗期5个NaCl浓度胁迫下甜菜碱和脯氨酸含量的变化.方差分析表明盐胁迫下3个小麦品种之间甜菜碱的含量差异达到极显著水平(P＜0.01),SW12的含量最高,宁春4号次之,中国春最低,与小麦耐盐性表现相一致;脯氨酸在叶片中的含量差异不显著,在根中宁春4号和中国春的含量有显著差异(P＜0.05).结果表明:小麦叶和根中甘氨酸甜菜碱含量与小麦盐胁迫呈正相关,是小麦体内抵御盐胁迫的渗透调节物质之一,可作为小麦耐盐性鉴定指标.     

盐胁迫激活大麦幼苗脯氨酸合成的鸟氨酸途径

２００mmol/L NaCl处理结合^14C-Ｇlu和^14C-Arg叶面饲喂６d龄大麦（Ｈordeum vulgareL.)幼苗,结果证明６d龄大麦幼苗体内普遍存在Ａrg（谷氨酸）→Ｏｍ（鸟氨酸）→Ｐro(脯氨酸）途径。直 迫明显激活了Ａrg→Ｏｍ→Ｐro途径,胁迫处理７d,大麦幼苗叶片和根系中该途径对Pro含量上升的贡献是Glu→Pro途径的１．０－１．５倍。而盐的“鉴４”品种Ａrg→Ｏｍ→Ｐro途径对Pro含量上升的贡献是对盐敏感的“科品７号”的１．７－２．０倍,结果表明盐胁迫下Ａrg→Ｏｍ→Ｐro途径的激活对大麦幼苗耐盐性的提高具有重要意义。     

盐胁迫对黄瓜幼苗根系脯氨酸和多胺代谢的影响

以2个黄瓜品种‘长春密刺’(抗盐性较强)和‘津春2号’(抗盐性较弱)为材料,采用营养液栽培,研究了盐胁迫对幼苗根系脯氨酸(Pro)和多胺(PAs)代谢的影响。结果表明,盐胁迫能提高黄瓜幼苗根系吡咯啉-5-羧酸合成酶(P5CS)活性,抑制脯氨酸脱氢酶(ProDH)活性,从而显著增加Pro含量,且‘长春密刺’变化幅度显著大于‘津春2号’;盐胁迫下,‘长春密刺’根系精氨酸脱羧酶(ADC)、鸟氨酸脱羧酶(ODC)和S-腺苷蛋氨酸脱羧酶(SAMDC)活性升高幅度显著大于‘津春2号’,而多胺氧化酶(PAO)活性升高幅度显著低于‘津春2号’,引起其根系内亚精胺(Spd)和精胺(Spm)含量显著增加;盐胁迫下,2品种根系腐胺(Put)含量呈先上升后下降的变化趋势,随着Put积累降低,Pro含量显著增加。可见,盐胁迫诱导根系较高的Pro、Spd和Spm积累有利于提高黄瓜幼苗对盐胁迫逆境的适应能力,盐胁迫下PAs代谢和Pro代谢密切相关,Put的积累一定程度上促进了Pro含量的增加。     

Ornithine Pathway in Proline Biosynthesis Activated by Salt Stress in Barley Seedlings

14 C-glutamate and 14 C-arginine were spreaded on leaves of six-day old barley ( Hordeum vulgare L.) seedlings that were treated with NaCl 200 mmol/L. The result showed that the pathway of arginine→ornithine→proline existed in the six-day old barley seedlings and was provoked remarkably by NaCl treatment. After seven days, proline accumulation contributed via the arginine→ornithine→proline pathway was 1.0-1.5 folds of that via the glutamate→proline pathway. The activation of arginine→ornithine→proline pathway by salt stress in the salt-tolerant cultivar “Jian 4" was 1.7-2.0 folds of that in the salt-sensitive cultivar “KP 7", which suggested that the activation of arginine→ornithine→proline pathway in barley seedlings played an important role in improving salt tolerance of plants.
