Genes encoding oleosins in maize kernel of inbreds Mo17 and B73 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We have investigated all three oleosin genes which are expressed in the kernel of maize (Zea mays L., Mo17). Oleosin genes, ole16, ole17, and ole18, encode OLE16, OLE17, and OLE18, respectively, in proportional amounts of approximately 2:1:1 in isolated oil bodies. None of the three genes has an intron or a sequence encoding an N-terminal signal peptide. The three genes are expressed coordinately during seed maturation, and their encoded oleosins are present in similar proportional amounts in oil bodies isolated from the embryonic axis, scutellum, and aleurone layer. OLE16 represents one oleosin isoform, whereas OLE17 and OLE18 are close members of another oleosin isoform. ole16 and ole18 have been mapped to single loci on chromosomes 2 (near b1 gene) and 5S (near phya2), respectively. We predict that ole17 is located on chromosome 1 (near phya1), in a chromosomal segment duplicated on chromosome 5. 相似文献

We have successfully created polyoleosins by joining multiple oleosin units in tandem head‐to‐tail fusions. Constructs encoding recombinant proteins of 1, 3 and 6 oleosin repeats were purposely expressed both in planta and in Escherichia coli. Recombinant polyoleosins accumulated in the seed oil bodies of transgenic plants and in the inclusion bodies of E. coli. Although polyoleosin was estimated to only accumulate to <2% of the total oil body protein in planta, their presence increased the freezing tolerance of imbibed seeds as well as emulsion stability and structural integrity of purified oil bodies; these increases were greater with increasing oleosin repeat number. Interestingly, the hexameric form of polyoleosin also led to an observable delay in germination which could be overcome with the addition of external sucrose. Prokaryotically produced polyoleosin was purified and used to generate artificial oil bodies and the increase in structural integrity of artificial oil bodies‐containing polyoleosin was found to mimic those produced in planta. We describe here the construction of polyoleosins, their purification from E. coli, and properties imparted on seeds as well as native and artificial oil bodies. A putative mechanism to account for these properties is also proposed. 相似文献
