Yellow pigment content in durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum) is an important criterion for both pasta bright yellow color and human health because of antioxidant properties of carotenoids
involved in this pigmentation. In the present study, QTLs for yellow pigment content in durum wheat were mapped in a population
of 140 RILs developed from a intraspecific cross between a released variety (PDW 233) and a landrace (Bhalegaon 4). This trait
was evaluated in one location for 3 years and in two more locations for one additional year (five different year × location
combinations further called “environments”). Yellow pigment content was highly heritable across the five different environments.
Analysis of variance showed the significant effect of genotype, environment and genotype × environment interaction on the
trait. Five different QTLs linked to yellow pigment content were identified on chromosome 1A, 3B, 5B, 7A and 7B across five
different environments. The strongest one located on the distal part of the long arm of chromosome 7A, QYp.macs-7A, explained 55.22% of the variation in the trait, while, remaining four QTLs explained 5–8.75% of phenotypic variation in
yellow pigment content. Marker analysis revealed significant association of one ISSR and one AFLP fragment with the trait.
These two markers were linked to the major QTL QYp.macs-7A and were converted into SCAR markers. These SCAR markers were further validated on another population as well as 38 diverse
genotypes so as to prove their potential in marker assisted selection. These markers will be very useful for the marker assisted
breeding of durum wheat for higher yellow pigment content. 相似文献

The high affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRI) usually exists as a tetramer composed of alphabetagamma2 subunits. The COOH-tail of beta and gamma subunits contains consensus sequence termed 'immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif' (ITAM). Tyrosine phosphorylated ITAM interacts with signaling proteins that contain the Src homology domain, forming a main amplifying and signaling route for FcepsilonRI. Unlike the COOH-tail, the functional role of NH(2)-tail of beta subunit in the signaling of FcepsilonRI is not clear because it lacks the ITAM sequences. To study the roles of NH(2)-tail of beta subunit, the cDNA library of RBL-2H3 cells was screened by yeast two-hybrid assay, and the NH(2)-tail of the beta subunit was found to interact with phospholipase Cgamma2 (PLCgamma2) but not with PLCgamma1. Since both PLCgamma1 and PLCgamma2 are expressed in RBL-2H3 cells and they possess identical cellular functions, the functional meaning of the protein-protein interaction between PLCgamma2 and NH(2)-tail of beta subunit was studied by comparing the regulatory pathways that control the FcepsilonRI-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of the two enzymes. Our study shows that PI3-kinase and PMA-sensitive PKCs were required exclusively for the FcepsilonRI-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of PLCgamma1. Also the FcepsilonRI-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation of PLCgamma1 was more sensitive to the inhibitors of Src and Syk kinases. These results therefore suggest that PLCgamma1 is involved in dynamic regulation of protein kinase C activity and inositol triphosphate levels in response to cellular needs. In contrast, PLCgamma2, through continuous interaction with the NH(2)-tail of beta subunit, co-localizes with FcepsilonRI in the same signaling domain, and maintains the basal cellular PLC activity. 相似文献

Several semi-synthetic bis- and mono-O-alkyl nocathiacin derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for antibacterial activity. Mono-O-alkyl N-hydroxyindole analogues 3a-l were prepared by regioselective alkylation. Bis-O-alkyl nocathiacins 4a-f were obtained by treatment with base and excess electrophile. A one-pot protection-alkylation-deprotection strategy was developed for the preparation of mono-O-alkyl hydroxypyridine analogues 5a,b. Most of the bis- and mono-O-alkyl nocathiacins maintained good in vitro activity but showed reduced in vivo efficacy when compared with the natural product. The excellent in vivo activity and improved water solubility of phosphate analogues 3m and 4g suggest their use as potential pro-drugs. 相似文献

A large number of studies have demonstrated co-purification or co-immunoprecipitation of receptors with G proteins. We have begun to look for the presence of effector molecules in these receptor complexes. Co-expression of different channel and receptor permutations in COS-7 and HEK 293 cells in combination with co-immunoprecipitation experiments established that the dopamine D(2) and D(4), and beta(2)-adrenergic receptors (beta(2)-AR) form stable complexes with Kir3 channels. The D(4)/Kir3 and D(2) receptor/Kir3 interaction does not occur when the channel and receptor are expressed separately and mixed prior to immunoprecipitation, indicating that the interaction is not an artifact of the experimental protocol and reflects a biosynthetic event. The observed complexes are stable in that they are not disrupted by receptor activation or modulation of G protein alpha subunit function. However, using a peptide that binds Gbetagamma (betaARKct), we show that Gbetagamma is critical for dopamine receptor-Kir3 complex formation, but not for maintenance of the complex. We also provide evidence that Kir3 channels and another effector, adenylyl cyclase, are stably associated with the beta(2)-adrenergic receptor and can be co-immunoprecipitated by anti-receptor antibodies. Using bioluminescence resonance energy transfer, we have shown that in living cells under physiological conditions, beta(2)AR interacts directly with Kir3.1/3.4 and Kir3.1/3.2c heterotetramers as well as with adenylyl cyclase. All of these interactions are stable in the presence of receptor agonists, suggesting that these signaling complexes persist during signal transduction. In addition, we provide evidence that the receptor-effector complexes are also found in vivo. The observation that several G protein-coupled receptors form stable complexes with their effectors suggests that this arrangement might be a general feature of G protein-coupled signal transduction. 相似文献

A D2 class dopamine receptor transactivates a receptor tyrosine kinase to inhibit NMDA receptor transmission 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are membrane spanning proteins with intrinsic kinase activity. Although these receptors are known to be involved in proliferation and differentiation of cells, their roles in regulating central synaptic transmission are largely unknown. In CA1 pyramidal neurons, activation of D2 class dopamine receptors depressed excitatory transmission mediated by the NMDA subtype of glutamate receptor. This depression resulted from the quinpirole-induced release of intracellular Ca(2+) and enhanced Ca(2+)-dependent inactivation of NMDA receptors. The dopamine receptor-mediated depression was dependent on the "transactivation" of PDGFRbeta. Therefore, RTK transactivation provides a novel mechanism of communication between dopaminergic and glutamatergic systems and might help to explain how reciprocal changes in these systems could be linked to the deficits in cognition, memory, and attention observed in schizophrenia and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. 相似文献

Phytoene synthase-1 (Psy-1) homoeologs are associated with yellow pigment content (YPC) in endosperm of durum and bread wheat. In the present study, microsatellite variation in promoter region of Psy-A1 was identified in durum wheat and marker Psy-1SSR, targeting the microsatellite variation was developed which amplifies variation in Psy-A1 and Psy-B1 loci simultaneously. Psy-A1SSR was mapped within QYp.macs-7A, a major QTL for YPC identified earlier in PDW 233/Bhalegaon 4 population. Marker Psy-A1SSR was further validated in two different RIL populations and a set of 222 tetraploid wheat accessions including less cultivated tetraploid wheat species. Eight alleles of Psy-A1SSR were identified in 222 wheat accessions, while seven alleles were observed for Psy-B1SSR. Variation at Psy-A1SSR showed significant association with YPC, whereas no association was observed with Psy-B1SSR. Marker-assisted introgression of Psy-A1SSRe allele from PDW 233, to durum wheat cultivars MACS 3125 and HI 8498 resulted in improvement of YPC. Backcrossed BC3F2:4 and BC2F2:3 lines selected using Psy-A1SSR showed 89 to 98% gain in YPC over recurrent parents indicating robustness of marker. The marker can thus be utilized in marker-assisted improvement of YPC in durum wheat cultivars. 相似文献

Dopaminergic drugs increase the expression of the proto-oncogene, c-fos, in the brain, which is involved in the coordination of neurobiological changes caused by repeated cocaine or amphetamine use. This study examined the roles of five dopamine receptor subtypes on the c-fos promoter activity. D(1)R or D(5)R significantly increased the expression of c-fos promoter by activating protein kinase A. However, D(2)R, D(3)R, or D(4)R did not show any noticeable effects. The co-expression of D(1)R/D(3)R or D(1)R/D(2)R synergistically activated the basal and agonist-induced expression of the c-fos promoter, respectively. The Ral guanine-nucleotide-dissociation-stimulator-like, which was found to interact with the 3rd cytoplasmic loop of D(3)R, mediated the inhibitory activity of D(3)R in c-fos expression. In summary, the expression of the c-fos promoter was increased by the D1-like receptors and enhanced synergistically by the D2-like receptors via the modulation of cellular cAMP. D(3)R inhibited the expression of the c-fos promoter through an interaction with RGL. 相似文献

Acquiring therapy resistance is one of the major obstacles in the treatment of patients with cancer. The discovery of the cancer stem cell (CSC)–specific drug salinomycin raised hope for improved treatment options by targeting therapy-refractory CSCs and mesenchymal cancer cells. However, the occurrence of an acquired salinomycin resistance in tumor cells remains elusive. To study the formation of salinomycin resistance, mesenchymal breast cancer cells were sequentially treated with salinomycin in an in vitro cell culture assay, and the resulting differences in gene expression and salinomycin susceptibility were analyzed. We demonstrated that long-term salinomycin treatment of mesenchymal cancer cells resulted in salinomycin-resistant cells with elevated levels of epithelial markers, such as E-cadherin and miR-200c, a decreased migratory capability, and a higher susceptibility to the classic chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin. The formation of salinomycin resistance through the acquisition of epithelial traits was further validated by inducing mesenchymal-epithelial transition through an overexpression of miR-200c. The transition from a mesenchymal to a more epithelial-like phenotype of salinomycin-treated tumor cells was moreover confirmed in vivo, using syngeneic and, for the first time, transgenic mouse tumor models. These results suggest that the acquisition of salinomycin resistance through the clonal selection of epithelial-like cancer cells could become exploited for improved cancer therapies by antagonizing the tumor-progressive effects of epithelial-mesenchymal transition. 相似文献
