菜凝集素基因的克隆及在转基因烟草中抗蚜性研究

通过PCR从苋属植物千穗谷(Amaranthus hypochondriacus)的总DNA中扩增出苋菜凝集素(AHA)的核基因片段。序列分析结果表明该基因为2453bp,含有一1538bp的内含子和两个分别为212bp和703bp的外显子。采取反向PCR的方法获得仅含该基因的编码区克隆。以此为基础与二元表达载体pBin438构建含内含子与不含内含子AHA基因的植物表达载体pBAHAg和pBAHAc并通过土壤农杆菌介导转化了烟草。转化再生植株的PCR和Southern blot分析表明,AHA基因已整合到烟草的染色体中,有单拷贝和多拷贝的整合。用与AHA蛋白高度同源的ACA蛋白的抗血清进行了免疫斑点(Immunodot blot)检测,结果初步表明转基因烟草有AHA蛋白的表达。虫试结果表明转pBAHAg和pBAHAc烟草对蚜虫的平均抑制率分别达57.2%和48.8%,有的高达90%以上。含内含子和不含内含子的AHA基因在转基因植株中的抗蚜性不同。

Transgenic Tobacco Expressing Pinellia ternata Agglutinin Confers Enhanced Resistance to Aphids

Tobacco leaf discs were transformed with a plasmid, pBIPTA, containing the selectable marker neomycin phosphotransferase gene (nptII) and Pinellia ternata agglutinin gene (pta) via Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. Thirty-two independent transgenic tobacco plants were regenerated. PCR and Southern blot analyses confirmed that the pta gene had integrated into the plant genome and northern blot analysis revealed transgene expression at various levels in transgenic plants. Genetic analysis confirmed Mendelian segregation of the transgene in T1 progeny. Insect bioassays showed that transgenic plants expressing PTA inhibited significantly the growth of peach potato aphid (Myzus persicae Sulzer). This is the first report that transgenic plants expressing pta confer enhanced resistance to aphids. Our study indicates that the pta gene can be used as a supplement to the snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis) lectin gene (gna) in the control of aphids, a sap-sucking insect pest causing significant yield losses of crops.

表达尾穗苋凝集素基因的转基因烟草对桃蚜(Myzus persicae)繁殖的影响(英文)

To investigate the possible function of the agglutinin from Amaranthus caudatus L. (ACA) in plant defending against insect pests, ACA cDNA was cloned by RT-PCR and the 5‘ and 3‘ sequences were confirmed by rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE). The phloem-specific expression vector of ACA gene, pBCACAc, was constructed based on the plant binary vector pBC438 and transfered into tobacco plants via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation method. Results from PCR and Southern blotting analysis showed that AOA gene was integrated into the genomes of transformed plants and the transgene integration varied from one to four estimated copies per genome. Western blotting analysis indicated that ACA gene was transcribed and translated in the transgenic plants. The bioassay of Myzus persicae Sulzer on detached leaves demonstrated that the 78% transgenic tobacco plants displayed an average aphid-resistant rate of more than 75%. Some apterous progeny of M. persicae were found dead on the resistant plants. These results indicate that ACA gene should be an effective aphid-resistant gene and could be valuable for application in crop breeding for aphid resistance.     

The first intron of rice EPSP synthase enhances expression of foreign gene

The first intron (EPI) of rice 5-enolpyruvylshikimate 3-phosphate synthase gene was isolated by PCR from one clone with genomic EPSP synthase gene. Sequence analysis showed that the first intron is 704 bp in length with 36.2% G+C content. To investigate its effect on expression of foreign gene, we inserted the first intron between CaMV35S promoter and β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene. The transient expression results showed that GUS could be expressed effectively with EPI. The GUS activity in transgenic tobacco shows that the EPI can greatly enhance the expression level of β-glucuronidase (P < 0.01) compared with transgenic tobacco without the first intron, and 3-to 6-fold increase in GUS activity in some transgenic tobaccos. Northern blot indicated the first intron was spliced from GUS pre-mRNA, and the steady-state mRNA levels of GUS with EPI in transgenic tobaccos were higher than that in transgenic tobacco without EPI, which suggested that the first intron of EPSP was a non-translated intron.

The first intron of rice EPSP synthase enhances expression of foreign gene

Translatable exon sequences in pre-mRNA often are separated by non-coding introns in eu-karyotic genomes. The removal of non-coding introns from pre-mRNA and the splicing together of translatable exons sequence is an essential requirement of gene expression. DNA size of introns in a gene is 5—10 times larger than that of exon, which can store more information and is helpful for a gene during evolution[1]. In many experiments on gene expression, it is indispensable for a gene to be expresse…     

Insect Resistance of Transformed Tobacco Plants with Gene of the Spider Insecticidal Peptide

Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum)leaves were transformed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens LBA4404 containing the insecticidal peptide gene. Thirty regenerated kanamycin resistant plants were obtained, among which three showed stronger toxicity to Heliothis armigera by feeding experiments. In comparison with feeding of the control plants, mortality of the insects fed on transgenic plants was significantly higher and the growth of the survived insects was remarkably retarded. Results of PCR Southern blot and Northern blot showed that insecticidal peptide gene has been transferred into the genome of these three plants and expressed efficiently to confer the insect resistance of the transgenic plants.
