A Phytophthora megasperma f.sp. glycinea cell wall glucan preparation was previously shown to protect tobacco plants against viral infection. Eleven plant defense-related genes were assayed for elevated mRNA accumulation levels in response to glucan treatment of tobacco plants. The expression of only one of these genes, a glycine-rich protein (GRP) gene, was induced by glucan application. Elevated GRP gene mRNA levels could be detected within 15 min of glucan treatment and reached maximum levels at 4 h post-treatment followed by a slow decline to 8 h. The maximum induction of the GRP gene was approximately ninefold above H2 O-treated control plants. Northern blot analysis showed that a single mRNA species of 1.4 kb was responding to the glucan treatment. GRP genes occur in tobacco as members of a multigene family, but only one specific GRP gene was induced by the glucan treatment. A genomic copy of this responding GRP gene was cloned and sequenced. This tobacco GRP gene is homologous to the petunia ptGRP1 gene and the French bean GRP1.8 gene, but is not closely related to the French bean GRP1.0 gene. GRP gene expression has previously been associated with disease resistance in plants, but it remains to be determined whether β-glucan activation of the tobacco GRP gene results in the observed resistance to virus. 相似文献

二色补血草LbGRP基因的克隆及抗逆能力分析 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
富含甘氨酸RNA结合蛋白(Glycine-rich RNA-binding proteins, GRP)是植物中重要的转录后调控蛋白, 在植物的生长发育及对胁迫的抗性调控等过程中起重要作用。文章从二色补血草(Limonium bicolor (Bunge) O.) cDNA文库中克隆出了富含甘氨酸RNA结合蛋白基因(LbGRP)的全长cDNA序列(GenBank登录号: GQ398238)。为了研究LbGRP的抗逆功能, 将其构建到酵母表达载体pYES2中, 转化到酿酒酵母INVSc1菌株中, 获得重组酵母INVSc1(pYES2-LbGRP), 同时将转空pYES2质粒的酵母INVSc1(pYES2)作为对照。对重组酵母INVSc1 (pYES2-LbGRP)和对照INVSc1(pYES2)进行NaCl、KCl、NaHCO3、Na2CO3、干旱和冷冻胁迫, 比较它们在不同胁迫下的存活率。结果表明, INVSc1(pYES2-LbGRP)在各种胁迫下的存活率明显高于对照INVSc1(pYES2), 证明LbGRP基因具有抗NaCl、KCl、NaHCO3、Na2CO3、干旱和冷冻等胁迫的能力, 推测该基因参与了二色补血草的抗逆调控过程。 相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequence for the Leishmania infantum homologue to the glucose-regulated protein 94 (GRP94) gene was determined from the isolation and characterization of a genomic clone. Like the mammalian and plant GRP94s, the L. infantum GRP94 sequence possesses both an N-terminal signal peptide and a putative endoplasmic reticulum retention signal, consisting of the C-terminal tetrapeptide EDDL. Thus, L. infantum is the first protozoan organism in which GRP94 has been identified. Southern blot analysis has indicated that this protein is encoded by a single-copy gene. The L. infantum GRP94 gene was expressed in Escherichia coli and the recombinant protein used to evaluate its antigenicity and immunogenicity. Eighty-four percent of sera from dogs with visceral leishmaniasis reacted with the protein, indicating that GRP94 is a potent immunogen during Leishmania infection. Given the immunogenic and antigenic properties shown by the L. infantum GRP94, we think that this protein constitutes a valuable molecule for diagnostic purposes and a potential candidate for studies of protective immunogenicity. 相似文献

水稻H3.2型组蛋白基因RH3.2A的克隆与盐胁迫下的表达分析 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
组蛋白H3与其他类型的组蛋白分子H2A,H2B,H4共同构成了真核生物核小体的八聚体核心。研究发现组蛋白H3的多种翻译修饰,如甲基化、乙酰化、磷酸化等在调控基因转录过程种发挥了重要的作用。本研究从盐胁迫处理的水稻幼苗组织中分离了一个新的水稻组蛋白H3基因RH3.2A,编码具有136个氨基酸残基的多肽,与多种植物的组蛋白H3蛋白具有高度的氨基酸一致性。多序列比较发现,除了基因结构差异之外,还有3个位置的氨基酸残基(32、88、91)在H3.1与H3.2型组蛋白H3中存在差异。研究了RH3.2A基因在高盐和ABA胁迫下的表达,结果发现在水稻根部RH3.2A基因受高盐的强烈诱导,而在叶片RH3.2A基因的表达则不受高盐诱导,此外RH3.2A基因也受外源ABA的诱导,结合启动子分析的结果,我们认为RH3.2A基因可能参与了依赖于ABA的高盐胁迫应答反应。文章讨论了植物组蛋白H3基因在高盐胁迫应答反应中可能的作用。 相似文献

A genomic hsp70 gene was isolated from a rice IR36 genomic library and 4 794 bp of the gene have been sequenoed. The 5' flanking region of the gene contained a putative TATA box and a typical heat shock element sequence 5'-CTcgGAAccTTCgAG-3'. The amino acid sequence of the rice HSP70 deduced from the coding region shared 84%-92% homologies with those of HSP70s from other plant species. An intron 1939bp long was identified in the coding region at the codon specifying amino acid 72 (Asp), the similar position introns occurring in other intron-containing hsp70 genes. In addition, another intron of 57 bp was found in the 3'-untranslated region in the rice hsp70 gene. Southern blot hybridization showed that rice hsp70 gene family contained at least three members. Analysis of the RNA leveis with the gene-specific and non-specific probes revealed that the rice hsp70 gene expressed at normal temperature and the expression was enhanced by heat shock treatment. 相似文献

The rice Oryza sativa selenium-binding protein homologue (OsSBP) gene encodes a homologue of mammalian selenium-binding proteins, and it has been isolated as one of the genes induced by treating a plant with a cerebroside elicitor from rice blast fungus. The possible role of OsSBP in plant defense was evaluated by using a transgenic approach. Plants overexpressing OsSBP showed enhanced resistance to a virulent strain of rice blast fungus as well as to rice bacterial blight. The expression of defense-related genes and the accumulation of phytoalexin after infection by rice blast fungus were accelerated in the OsSBP overexpressors. A higher level of H(2)O(2) accumulation and reduced activity of such scavenging enzymes as ascorbate peroxidase and catalase were seen when the OsSBP-overexpressing plants were treated with the protein phosphatase 1 inhibitor, calyculin A. These results suggest that the upregulation of OsSBP expression conferred enhanced tolerance to different pathogens, possibly by increasing plant sensitivity to endogenous defense responses. Additionally, the OsSBP protein might have a role in modulating the defense mechanism to biotic stress in rice. 相似文献

Gene cloning and expression of cytosolic glutathione reductase in rice (Oryza sativa L.) 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
We have isolated a cDNA (RGRC2) encoding glutathione reductase (GR) from rice (Oryza sativa L.). The comparison of deduced amino acid sequences from RGRC2 and other plant GR cDNAs indicated that RGRC2 encodes a putative cytosolic isoform. The recombinant RGRC2 protein had enzymatic properties comparable to those of GR from rice embryo. Subcellular fractionation showed that the RGRC2 protein is localized primarily in cytosol. mRNA and protein of RGRC2 were observed mainly in roots and calli but little in leaf tissues. Southern blot analysis showed that the RGRC2 gene exists as a single copy gene. Here, we have also isolated a genomic clone completely corresponding to RGRC2. The RGRC2 gene is split into 16 exons spread about 7.4 kb of chromosomal DNA, with coding sequence beginning in the 2nd exon and ending in the 16th exon. From the presence of two ABA-responsive elements in the 5'-flanking region of RGRC2, we examined the expression in rice seedlings treated with ABA and the ABA-related environmental stresses, chilling, drought and salinity. The expression of RGRC2 was strongly induced by all these treatments. We suggest that the expression of the rice cytosolic GR gene is regulated via ABA-mediated signal transduction pathway under environmental stresses. 相似文献

Brassinosteroid (BR) and gibberellin (GA) are two groups of plant growth regulators essential for normal plant growth and development. To gain insight into the molecular mechanism by which BR and GA regulate the growth and development of plants, especially the monocot plant rice, it is necessary to identify and analyze more genes and proteins that are regulated by them. With the availability of draft sequences of two major types, japonica and indica rice, it has become possible to analyze expression changes of genes and proteins at genome scale. In this review, we summarize rice functional genomic research by using microarray and proteomic approaches and our recent research results focusing on the comparison of cDNA microarray and proteomic analyses of BR- and GA-regulated gene and protein expression in rice. We believe our findings have important implications for understanding the mechanism by which BR and GA regulate the growth and development of rice. 相似文献

In Asian cultivated rice (Oryza sativa L.), aroma is one of the most valuable traits in grain quality and 2-ACP is the main volatile compound contributing to the characteristic popcorn-like odour of aromatic rices. Although the major locus for grain fragrance (frg gene) has been described recently in Basmati rice, this gene has not been characterised in true japonica varieties and molecular information available on the genetic diversity and evolutionary origin of this gene among the different varieties is still limited. Here we report on characterisation of the frg gene in the Azucena variety, one of the few aromatic japonica cultivars. We used a RIL population from a cross between Azucena and IR64, a non-aromatic indica, the reference genomic sequence of Nipponbare (japonica) and 93-11 (indica) as well as an Azucena BAC library, to identify the major fragance gene in Azucena. We thus identified a betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase gene, badh2, as the candidate locus responsible for aroma, which presented exactly the same mutation as that identified in Basmati and Jasmine-like rices. Comparative genomic analyses showed very high sequence conservation between Azucena and Nipponbare BADH2, and a MITE was identified in the promotor region of the BADH2 allele in 93-11. The badh2 mutation and MITE were surveyed in a representative rice collection, including traditional aromatic and non-aromatic rice varieties, and strongly suggested a monophylogenetic origin of this badh2 mutation in Asian cultivated rices. Altogether these new data are discussed here in the light of current hypotheses on the origin of rice genetic diversity. 相似文献

Many developmental and environmental signals are transduced through changes in intracellular calcium concentrations, yet only a few calcium-binding proteins have been identified in plants. Calcineurin B-like (CBL) proteins are calcium-binding proteins that are thought to function as plant signal transduction elements. RNA profiling using a rice (Oryza sativa cv Nipponbare) oligonucleotide microarray was used to monitor gene expression in de-embryonated rice grains. This analysis showed that a putative rice CBL gene responded to gibberellic acid, but not abscisic acid, treatment. The CBL gene family in rice contains at least 10 genes and these have extensive similarity to the CBLs of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). In yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) two-hybrid assays, rice CBLs interact with the kinase partners of Arabidopsis CBLs. Only one rice CBL gene, OsCBL2, is up-regulated by GA in the aleurone layer. A homolog with 91% sequence identity to OsCBL2 was cloned from barley (Hordeum vulgare cv Himalaya), and designated HvCBL2. We examined the localization and function of OsCBL2 and HvCBL2 in rice and barley aleurone because changes in cytosolic calcium have been implicated in the response of the aleurone cell to GA. Green fluorescent protein translational fusions of OsCBL2 and OsCBL3 were localized to the tonoplast of aleurone cell protein storage vacuoles and OsCBL4-green fluorescent protein was localized to the plasma membrane. Data from experiments using antisense expression of OsCBL2 and HvCBL2 are consistent with a role for OsCBL2 in promoting vacuolation of barley aleurone cells following treatment with GA. 相似文献
