猪环状RNA IGF1R促进脂肪细胞分化

环状RNA(circular RNA, circRNA)作为竞争性内源RNA(competitive endogenous RNA, ceRNA)在细胞分化调控中发挥着重要作用。本研究旨在对猪环状RNA IGF1R(circular RNA insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor, circIGF1R)进行鉴定及分析,探明其表达规律,构建猪circIGF1R相关的ceRNA调控网络,并探究其异位表达对小鼠间充质干细胞(C3H10T1/2)成脂分化的调控作用。通过正反向引物PCR、Sanger测序、RNase R酶消化检测和qRT-PCR验证circIGF1R是胰岛素样生长因子1受体(insulin-like growth factor 1 receptor, IGF1R)第二外显子形成的circRNA,它在猪各组织中均有表达,且其表达量在脂肪组织中随日龄增加呈上升趋势;使用miRDB、TargetScan和miRWalk在线软件预测circIGF1R靶基因,运用RNAhybrid软件进行结合位点预测,使用DAVID生物信息功能分析软件对候选靶基因进行GO和KEGG富集分析,运用Cytoscape软件构建ceRNA网络,基于基因表达相关性和预测的靶标关系,绘制了GO和KEGG富集分析及构建了ceRNA网络;双荧光素酶报告基因分析证明circIGF1R及FABP4可与ssc (Sus scrofa chromosome) -miR-133a-5p结合;成功构建circIGF1R过表达载体,在间充质干细胞C3H10T1/2中异位表达,过表达circIGF1R后关键成脂调控因子CEBPα、CEBPβ、FABP4和PPARγ极显著升高(P＜0.01),脂滴数量显著增加。本研究结果证明,circIGF1R在猪脂肪组织中存在,并且可能通过ceRNA机制正调控C3H10T1/2细胞成脂分化,为进一步研究circIGF1R调控猪前体肌内脂肪细胞成脂分化奠定理论基础。     

Fine‐scale population structure of Collichtys lucidus populations inferred from microsatellite markers

The spinyhead croaker Collichthys lucidus (Richardson) is a small sciaenid species distributed along the inshore waters of northwestern Pacific Ocean, and now has been listed as Key Protected Commercial Sources of Aquatic Animals and Plants in China. To delineate stock boundaries and inform conservation policy for its management, samples were collected from eight locations across the Chinese coastal waters and analyzed at nine microsatellite loci. C. lucidus populations showed low genetic diversity (expected heterozygosity = 0.445–0.542; observed heterozygosity = 0.392–0.539; Polymorphism Information Content = 0.268–0.684). Strong genetic fdifferentiation (F_st = 0.065–0.510, all significant after Bonferroni correction) among all populations and high levels of self‐recruitment (89.2%–91.5%) were observed, which suggested limited genetic exchange for this species. Clustering results of discriminant analysis of principal components and STRUCTURE found strong support for obvious genetic clusters (populations FZ, XM and SZ vs. populations SH, YRE, ZS, WZ and ND). The results of the present study not only supported the phylogeographic pattern of north‐south differentiation, but also suggested that C. lucidus populations may be predominantly sustained by self‐replenishment rather than by recruitment from distant populations.

Complete Mitochondrial Genome of the Steppe Ribbon Racer(Psammophis lineolatus): The First Representative from the Snake Family Psammophiidae and its Phylogenetic Implications

Comparisons of vertebrate mitochondrial genomes(mitogenomes) may yield significant insights into the evolution of organisms and genomes. However,no complete mitogenome from the snake family Psammophiidae has been reported. In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitogenome of Psammophis lineolatus, representing the first mitogenome of Psammophiidae. The total length is 17 166 bp,consisting of 13 protein-coding genes(PCGs), 22 transfer RNAs(tRNAs), two ribosomal RNAs(12 S rRNA and16 S rRNA), and duplicate control regions(CRs). This gene arrangement belongs to the Type Ⅲ pattern,which is a widely shared gene order in Alethinophidian snakes. All tRNAs exhibit cloverleaf structures with the exception of tRNA-SerAGY and tRNA-Pro, which lack a dihydrouridine(DHU) arm/stem and TΨC loop,respectively. The 13 PCGs include five start codons(ATG,GTG, ATA, ATT, and ATC), two complete stop codons(TAA and AGG), and two incomplete stop codon(T--and TA-). In addition, the Ka/Ks ratios indicate that all PCGs had undergone a strong purifying selection.Four types of CR domains rearrangement occurred among eight species of Elapoidea. The phylogenetic reconstructions with both Bayesian inference and maximum likelihood methods support the placement of Psammophiidae in the Elapoidea superfamily,with Homalopsidae being the sister taxon to Elapoidea and Colubroidea. However, the sister taxon of Psammophiidae is unclear due to the availability of Elapoidea mitogenomes being limited to the family Elapidae. More mitogenomes from different taxonomic groups in Elapoidea are needed to better understand the phylogenetic relationships within Elapoidea.     

重楼中一株产纤维素酶内生真菌的分离及鉴定

从重楼根茎中分离、鉴定具有产纤维素酶活性的内生真菌。采用表面消毒法从重楼块茎中分离内生真菌;用纤维素酶活性CMC平板检测分离菌株的产纤维素酶活性;对高产菌株进行形态学观察和分子生物学测序鉴定;探究影响纤维素酶活力的因素;利用平板法检测该株菌产其他胞外水解酶的活性。从3个来源的重楼中分离出41株内生真菌,通过平板检测发现AS-5、AS-7、AS-9和AS-18菌株能产生纤维素酶,其中AS-9菌株活性最强;通过形态学观察和ITS、LSU序列分析将AS-9菌株鉴定为Setophoma terrestris;该菌在pH值为7.0和温度为28℃时表现出最大纤维素酶活性,紫外线照射对产纤维素酶活性无明显作用;检测发现AS-9菌株同时具有产酪蛋白酶、脂肪酶、天冬酰胺酶、谷氨酰胺酶和脲酶活性。首次在重楼中发现内生真菌Setophoma terrestris,且具有较好的产纤维素酶能力,值得深入研究。     

茉莉酸信号受体COI蛋白家族的分子进化与基因表达分析

茉莉酸(Jasmonic acid,JA)存在于所有高等植物中,是植物对病原微生物和虫害防御反应的关键激素。在茉莉酸信号转导中,COI1(COR-insensitive 1)作为茉莉酸信号受体蛋白在其中发挥关键作用。本研究采用生物信息学方法,从藻类、苔藓类、蕨类、裸子及单、双子叶植物多谱系对COI蛋白家族进行比较基因组学研究,并取得以下结果:(1)同源基因鉴定结果发现,在所选的7种陆生植物中一共鉴定了55个COIs同源基因,然而,在低等的水生植物包括绿藻类(Chlorophytes)、红藻类(Rhodophytes)、硅藻类(Bacillariophytes)、灰胞藻类(Glaucophytes)及褐藻类(Phaeophytes)等基因组中均未发现其同源基因;(2)系统进化树分析表明,植物COI蛋白家族可以分为4个保守的亚家族,且在陆生植物扩增的同时可能已发生功能分化;(3)基因结构分析显示,植物COI家族基因结构表现多样性,主要体现在内含子的数目和长度上;(4)基因表达数据提示,COI基因家族成员参与植物生长发育的多个时期,且在不同组织器官以及不同的胁迫应答反应中发挥不同的作用。以上结果将为植物COI基因家族的深入研究提供参考。
