Transgenic Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. SR1 plants, characterized by an increase in the level of dsRNA-specific hydrolytic activity after induction by wounding, were obtained. The Solanum lycopersicum anionic peroxidase gene promoter (new for plant genetic engineering) was for the first time used for the induced expression of the target Serratia marcescens RNase III gene. Upon infection with the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), the transgenic plants of the obtained lines did not differ significantly from the control group in the level of TMV capsid protein accumulation. In general, no delay in the development of the infection symptoms was observed in transgenic plants as compared with the control group. The obtained transgenic plants represent a new model for the study of the biological role of endoribonucleases from the RNase III family, including in molecular mechanisms of resistance to pathogens. 相似文献

In this study we analyse several aspects of cytoplasmic RNA silencing by agroinfiltration of DNA constructs encoding single-
and double-stranded RNAs derived from a GFP transgene and from the endogenous Virp1 gene. Both types of inductors resulted after 2–4 days in much higher concentration of siRNAs in the agroinfiltrated zone
than normally seen during systemic silencing. More specifically, infiltration of two transgene hairpin constructs resulted
in elevated levels of siRNAs. However, differences between the two constructs were observed: the antisense–sense arrangement
was more effective than the sense–antisense order. For both double-stranded forms, we observed a relative increase of the
24-mer size class of siRNAs. When a comparable hairpin construct of the endogenous Virp1 gene was assayed, the portion of the 24-mer siRNA class remained low as observed for all kinds of single-stranded inducers.
The lack of increase of Virp1-derived 24-mers was independent of the expression level, as demonstrated by agroinfiltration into a transgenic plant that
overexpressed Virp1 and showed the same pattern. Using transducer constructs, we could detect within a week transitive silencing from GFP to GUS sequences in the infiltrated zone and in either direction 5′–3′ and 3′–5′. Conversely, for the endogenous Virp1 gene neither transitive silencing nor the induction of systemic silencing could be observed. These results are discussed
in view of the current models of RNA silencing. 相似文献

Production of monoclonal antibodies and pharmaceutical proteins in transgenic plants has been the focus of many research efforts for close to 30 years. Use of plants as bioreactors reduces large-scale production costs and minimizes risk for human pathogens contamination. Stable nuclear transformation of the plant genome offers a clear advantage in agricultural protein production platforms, limited only by the number of hectares that can be cultivated. We report here, for the first time, successful and stable expression of adalimumab in transgenic Nicotiana tabacum plants. The plant-derived adalimumab proved fully active and was shown to rescue L929 cells from the in vitro lethal effect of rhTNFα just as effectively as commercially available CHO-derived adalimumab (Humira). These results indicate that agricultural biopharming is an efficient alternative to mammalian cell-based expression platforms for the large-scale production of recombinant antibodies. 相似文献

The Nicotiana tabacum transgenic plants expressing a Cucurbita pepo antisense PHYA RNA were obtained. The seedlings of transgenic tobacco with reduced phytochrome A (PHYA) content displayed decreased sensitivity
to continuous broad-band far-red radiation (λ > 680 nm). Under far-red irradiance transgenic seedlings showed less elongation
of the hypocotyls, more rapid plastid development, more chlorophyll accumulation, less repression of lightdependent NADPH:protochlorophyllide
oxidoreductase than wild-type plants that was in accordance with PHYA control of plant development. Dynamics of the far-red
radiation dependent changes in low temperature chlorophyll fluorescence spectra for the transgenic and wild-type seedlings
were consistent with the more rapid formation of photosynthetic apparatus in the seedlings with reduced PHYA. 相似文献

The oxidative deamination of methylated putrescine by a diamine oxidase activity (DAO) is an important step in the biosynthesis of nicotine in tobacco and tropane alkaloids in several Solanaceous plants. A polyclonal rabbit antiserum was previously developed to a purported purified DAO enzyme from Nicotiana tabacum. The antiserum bound to a single 53 kDa protein and immunoprecipitated 80 of DAO activity from tobacco root extracts. In an effort to obtain DAO cDNAs, this antiserum was used to screen a tobacco cDNA expression library and three distinct immunoreactive cDNA clones were isolated. These cDNAs encoded predicted proteins that were either identical or nearly identical to predicted S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase (SAHH) from two Nicotiana species. Thus, the rabbit antiserum was not specific to DAO, even though it immunodepleted the majority of DAO activity from root extracts. Alternative hypotheses to explain the DAO immunodepletion results (such as poisoning of DAO activity or that SAHH is a bifunctional enzyme) were tested and ruled out. Therefore, we hypothesize that SAHH associates with DAO as part of a larger multienzyme complex that may function in planta as a nicotine metabolic channel. 相似文献

The aim of our study was to identify the highest expressing rubisco small subunit (RbcS) promoters (pRbcS) from the cotyledons of germinating seedlings of Brassica rapa var. oleifera to drive high-level and preferably stage-specific transgenic protein expression in Brassicaceae plants. We cloned four new
pRbcS promoters using several approaches, including the construction of a cDNA library and use of genome walking technique. Real-time
PCR analysis of RbcS mRNA expression clearly showed that two of these promoters exhibited the highest activity on the germination stage of plant
development. We used gusA expression as a reporter of promoter activity in Brassica napus and Nicotiana tabacum plants that were transformed with the constructs using an Agrobacterium-mediated transformation strategy. The mRNA level
of RbcS and of gusA was quantified in transformed plants. The data obtained demonstrate that the promoter most active in seedlings under native
conditions was also most active in transgenic constructs at the same stage of plant development. The fine structure of the
promoters is discussed herein. 相似文献

Using a direct amplification of genomic DNA from two Brassica rapa forms, we obtained two homologs of the CONSTANS gene, which controls the photoperiodic induction of flowering in Arabidopsis plants. The cloned fragments of B. rapa genome were identified as members of the CONSTANS-LIKE1 class. By aligning the nucleotide sequences of the CONSTANS gene and its homologs, three classes, CONSTANS, CONSTANS-LIKE1, and CONSTANS-LIKE2, were distinctly discerned by their primary structure. The pattern of restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLP) of the CONSTANS homologs in B. carinata, B. juncea, B. napus, B. nigra, B. oleracea, and B. rapa were genome-specific; in addition, the CONSTANS homologs were classified by plant geographic origin, and we assume that such classification is related to plant photoperiodic response.Translated from Fiziologiya Rastenii, Vol. 52, No. 2, 2005, pp. 274–281.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Martynov, Khavkin.This revised version was published online in April 2005 with a corrected cover date. 相似文献

The chimerical gene, Arabidopsis thaliana sHSP18.2 promoter fused to E. coli gusA gene, was Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformed into Nicotiana tabacum as a heat-regulatable model, and the thermo-inducible expression of GUS activity in N. tabacum transgenic hairy roots was profiled. An activation of A. rhizogenes with acetosyringone (AS) before cocultured with tobacco's leaf disc strongly promoted transgenic hairy roots formation. Transgenic hairy roots formation efficiency of A. rhizogenes precultured with 200 μM AS supplementation was 3.1-fold and 7.5-fold, respectively, compared to the formation efficiency obtained with and without AS supplementation in coculture. Transgenic hairy roots transformed with different AS concentration exhibited a similar pattern of thermo-inducibility after 10 min to 3 h heat treatments detected by GUS expression. The peak of expressed GUS specific activity, 399,530 pmol MUG per mg total protein per min, of the transgenic hairy roots was observed at 48 h after 3 h of 42°C heat treatment, and the expressed GUS specific activity was 7–26 times more than that reported in A. thaliana, tobacco BY-2 cells and Nicotiana plumbaginifolia. Interference caused by AS supplementation on the growth of transgenic hairy roots, time-course of GUS expression and its expression level were not observed. 相似文献

Changes in the levels of secondary compounds can trigger plant defenses. To identify phenolic compounds induced by Bemisia tabaci Middle East-Asia Minor 1 (MEAM1) in tobacco (Nicotiana tobacco L.), the content changes of 11 phenolic compounds in plants infested by B. tabaci MEAM1 or Trialeurodes vaporariorum were compared. The chlorogenic acid, catechin, caffeic acid, p-coumaric acid, rutin, and ferulic acid contents in B. tabaci MEAM1-infested tobacco plants increased significantly, having temporal and spatial effects, compared with uninfested control and T. vaporariorum infested plants. The contents were 4.10, 2.84, 2.25, 3.81, 1.46, and 1.91 times higher, respectively, than those in the control. However, a T. vaporariorum nymphal infestation just caused smaller chlorogenic acid, catechin, caffeic acid, and rutin contents increase, which were 2.33, 2.13, 1.59, and 3.19 times higher, respectively, than those in the control. In B. tabaci MEAM1 third-instar nymph-infested plants, chlorogenic acid, catechin, caffeic acid, and rutin increased more significantly in systemic than in local leaves. Salicylate-deficient plants inhibited the induction of the content of 10 phenolic compounds, but not caffeic acid, after a B. tabaci MEAM1 nymphal infestation. Thus, the elevated levels of phenolic compounds induced by B. tabaci MEAM1 were correlated with the salicylic acid signaling pathway and induced the responses of defense-related phenolic compounds. 相似文献

A transgenic approach to manipulation of endosperm development has been investigated. Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi, an endosperm-containing dicotyledon, has been used as a model plant and the 2.6 kb wheat high molecular weight
(HMW) glutenin subunit 12 promoter has been used fused either to the gus reporter gene (HMWgus construct)—to study promoter characteristics—or to the Agrobacterium ipt gene—to study the effect of cytokinin (CK) over-expression on assimilate accumulation in the seed. In transgenic tobacco
the promoter:gus fusion showed that HMW is an endosperm-specific promoter with maximum expression 20 days after anthesis (DAA), corresponding
to the mid to late stages of seed development. Transgenic plants containing the HMWipt construct showed no morphological abnormalities but they had an average increase in seed weight and total ethanol-insoluble
carbohydrates and protein content of 8.1%, 7.0% and 8.3%, respectively. SDS PAGE analysis demonstrated that the effect on
protein accumulation was non-specific. The highest values of the parameters analysed correlated with moderate increases in
the levels of biologically active CKs. These results suggest that ectopic expression of small amounts of CKs can be used to
increase storage assimilate accumulation without a detrimental effect on development. 相似文献

Two repeated DNA sequences isolated from a partial genomic DNA library of Helianthus annuus, p HaS13 and p HaS211, were shown to represent portions of the int gene of a Ty3 /gypsy retroelement and of the RNase-Hgene of a Ty1 /copia retroelement, respectively. Southern blotting patterns obtained by hybridizing the two probes to BglII- or DraI-digested genomic DNA from different Helianthus species showed p HaS13 and p HaS211 were parts of dispersed repeats at least 8 and 7 kb in length, respectively, that were conserved in all species studied. Comparable hybridization patterns were obtained in all species with p HaS13. By contrast, the patterns obtained by hybridizing p HaS211 clearly differentiated annual species from perennials. The frequencies of p HaS13- and p HaS211-related sequences in different species were 4.3x10(4)-1.3x10(5) copies and 9.9x10(2)-8.1x10(3) copies per picogram of DNA, respectively. The frequency of p HaS13-related sequences varied widely within annual species, while no significant difference was observed among perennial species. Conversely, the frequency variation of p HaS211-related sequences was as large within annual species as within perennials. Sequences of both families were found to be dispersed along the length of all chromosomes in all species studied. However, Ty3 /gypsy-like sequences were localized preferentially at the centromeric regions, whereas Ty1/ copia-like sequences were less represented or absent around the centromeres and plentiful at the chromosome ends. These findings suggest that the two sequence families played a role in Helianthusgenome evolution and species divergence, evolved independently in the same genomic backgrounds and in annual or perennial species, and acquired different possible functions in the host genomes. 相似文献

We isolated the 5′ flanking region of a gene for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL; EC 4.3.1.5) from Pinus taeda, PtaPAL. To investigate the tissue-specific expression of the PtaPAL promoter, histochemical assay of GUS activity was performed using the transgenic tobacco expressing the PtaPAL promoter-GUS. The region of −897 to −420 in PtaPAL promoter showed high activities in the secondary xylem and response to bending stress. To characterize the cis-regulatory functions of the promoters for enzymes in phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, we examined the activity of chimeric promoters
of PtaPAL and a 4-coumarate CoA ligase, Pta4CLα. The chimeric promoter showed similar activity as the Pta4CLα promoter. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays implicated −897 to –674 of PtaPAL promoter containing cis-elements of the expression in xylem of Pinus taeda. The results suggested that AC elements of PtaPAL have multiple functions in the expression under the various developmental stages and stress conditions in the transgenic
tobacco.
The nucleotide sequence data reported will appear in the EMBL, GenBank, and DDBJ Nucleotide Sequence Databases under the accession

Pathogenicity of Candida albicans is associated with its capacity switch from yeast-like to hyphal growth. The hyphal form is capable to penetrate the epithelial surfaces and to damage the host tissues. Therefore, many investigations have focused on mechanisms that control the morphological transitions of C. albicans. Recently, certain studies have showed that non-albicans Candida species can reduce the capacity of C. albicans to form biofilms and to develop candidiasis in animal models. Then, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of Candida krusei and Candida glabrata on the morphogenesis of C. albicans. Firstly, the capacity of reference and clinical strains of C. albicans in forming hyphae was tested in vitro. After that, the expression of HWP1 (hyphal wall protein 1) gene was determined by quantitative real-time PCR (polymerase chain reaction) assay. For both reference and clinical strains, a significant inhibition of the hyphae formation was observed when C. albicans was incubated in the presence of C. krusei or C. glabrata compared to the control group composed only by C. albicans. In addition, the culture mixed of C. albicans-C. krusei or C. albicans-C. glabrata reduced significantly the expression of HWP1 gene of C. albicans in relation to single cultures of this specie. In both filamentation and gene expression assays, C. krusei showed the higher inhibitory activity on the morphogenesis of C. albicans compared to C. glabrata. C. krusei and C. glabrata are capable to reduce the filamentation of C. albicans and consequently decrease the expression of the HWP1 gene. 相似文献
