We have initiated a systematic functional analysis of the MADS box, intervening region, K domain, C domain-type MADS box gene family in petunia. The starting point for this has been a reverse-genetics approach, aiming to select for transposon insertions into any MADS box gene. We have developed and applied a family signature insertion screening protocol that is highly suited for this purpose, resulting in the isolation of 32 insertion mutants in 20 different MADS box genes. In addition, we identified three more MADS box gene insertion mutants using a candidate-gene approach. The defined insertion lines provide a sound foundation for a systematic functional analysis of the MADS box gene family in petunia. Here, we focus on the analysis of Floral Binding Protein2 (FBP2) and FBP5 genes that encode the E-function, which in Arabidopsis has been shown to be required for B and C floral organ identity functions. fbp2 mutants display sepaloid petals and ectopic inflorescences originating from the third floral whorl, whereas fbp5 mutants appear as wild type. In fbp2 fbp5 double mutants, reversion of floral organs to leaf-like organs is increased further. Strikingly, ovules are replaced by leaf-like structures in the carpel, indicating that in addition to the B- and C-functions, the D-function, which specifies ovule development, requires E-function activity. Finally, we compare our data with results obtained using cosuppression approaches and conclude that the latter might be less suited for assigning functions to individual members of the MADS box gene family. 相似文献

The expansins comprise a family of proteins that appear to be involved in the disruption of the noncovalent bonds between cellulose microfibrils and cross-linking glycans, thereby promoting wall creep. To understand better the expansion process in Petunia hybrida (petunia) flowers, we isolated a cDNA corresponding to the PhEXP1 alpha-expansin gene of P. hybrida. Evaluation of the tissue specificity and temporal expression pattern demonstrated that PhEXP1 is preferentially expressed in petal limbs during development. To determine the function of PhEXP1, we used a transgenic antisense approach, which was found to cause a decrease in petal limb size, a reduction in the epidermal cell area, and alterations in cell wall morphology and composition. The diminished cell wall thickness accompanied by a reduction in crystalline cellulose indicates that the activity of PhEXP1 is associated with cellulose metabolism. Our results suggest that expansins play a role in the assembly of the cell wall by affecting either cellulose synthesis or deposition. 相似文献

Background
Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato and Anaplasma phagocytophilum are able to infect horses. However, the extend to which Danish horses are infected and seroconvert due to these two bacteria is unknown. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the seroprevalence of B. burgdorferi sensu lato and A. phagocytophilum in Danish horses. 相似文献28.

Variation in rates of molecular evolution now appears to be widespread. The
demonstration that body size is correlated with rates of molecular
evolution suggests that physiological and ecological factors may be
involved in molecular rate variation, but large-scale comparative studies
are still lacking. Here, we use complete cytochrome b sequences from 85
species of tube-nosed seabirds (order Procellariiformes) and 5 outgroup
species of penguins (order Sphenisciformes) to test for an association
between body mass and rates of molecular evolution within the former avian
order. Cladistic analysis of the 90 sequences estimates a phylogeny largely
consistent with the traditional taxonomy of the Procellariiformes. The
Diomedeidae, Procellariidae, and Pelecanoididae are monophyletic, while the
Hydrobatidae are basal and paraphyletic. However, the two subfamilies
within the Hydrobatidae (Hydrobatinae and Oceanitinae) are monophyletic. A
likelihood ratio test detects significant deviation from clocklike
evolution in our data. Using a sign test for an association between body
mass and branch length in the seabird phylogeny, we find that larger taxa
tend to have shorter terminal branch lengths than smaller taxa. This
observation suggests that rates of mitochondrial DNA evolution are slower
for larger taxa. Rate calibrations based on the fossil record reveal
concordant body size effects. We interpret these results as evidence for a
metabolic rate effect, as the species in this order exhibit large
differences in metabolic rates, which are known to be highly correlated
with body mass in this group. Our results support previous findings of body
size effects and show that this effect can be significant even within a
single avian order. This suggests that even lineage-specific molecular
clocks may not be tenable if calibrations involve taxa with different
metabolic rates.

The structural basis of molecular adaptation 总被引:31,自引:21,他引:10
The study of molecular adaptation has long been fraught with difficulties,
not the least of which is identifying out of hundreds of amino acid
replacements those few directly responsible for major adaptations. Six
studies are used to illustrate how phylogenies, site- directed mutagenesis,
and a knowledge of protein structure combine to provide much deeper
insights into the adaptive process than has hitherto been possible. Ancient
genes can be reconstructed, and the phenotypes can be compared to modern
proteins. Out of hundreds of amino acid replacements accumulated over
billions of years those few responsible for discriminating between
alternative substrates are identified. An amino acid replacement of modest
effect at the molecular level causes a dramatic expansion in an ecological
niche. These and other topics are creating the emerging field of
"paleomolecular biochemistry."
