砂藓(Racomitrium canescens)抗旱相关基因RcAOS2的克隆及表达分析

丙二烯氧化物合酶(allene oxide synthase, AOS)是茉莉酸合成途径中关键酶,在茉莉酸合成中具有重要的作用。本研究在砂藓(Racomitrium canescens)干旱胁迫转录组数据中发现一个干旱胁迫下表达量上调的AOS基因,将其命名为RcAOS2,我们对RcAOS2的开放阅读框进行了克隆及相关的生物信息学预测分析,并对RcAOS2在砂藓快速脱水和复水过程中的表达量变化进行了检测。结果显示,该基因cDNA全长1 474 bp,开放阅读框长516 bp。RcAOS2编码蛋白质的相对分子质量为4.36 kD,等电点为5.11,不稳定系数为55.02,为不稳定蛋白质;脂肪系数为19.19;RcAOS2蛋白质疏水性较强,属于疏水性蛋白质,存在信号肽,不属于跨膜蛋白质。系统进化分析表明,RcAOS2蛋白质与其他物种AOS蛋白质亲缘关系较远,是具有AOS序列特征的新类型。实时荧光定量PCR分析结果表明RcAOS2基因在砂藓干旱和复水过程中呈现差异性表达,推测RcAOS2可能参与砂藓的干旱胁迫响应和复水回复过程。本研究成果为进一步研究砂藓抗旱基因功能提供理论基础和备选基因资源。     

鱼类组蛋白核苷酸的多态性及其在杀鱼爱德华氏菌感染中的作用

组蛋白是染色体核小体的重要组分,在调控染色质结构、基因转录、个体发育等不同生物学过程中起着重要作用。为了研究鱼类组蛋白基因是否存在核苷酸的多态性以及组蛋白核苷酸多态性是否会影响鱼类的抗病力,本实验以斑马鱼和草鱼为研究对象,通过PCR扩增克隆了组蛋白H2A的全长开放阅读框;利用过表达技术、菌落平板计数、感染存活分析以及荧光定量PCR技术,研究了斑马鱼和草鱼组蛋白H2A核苷酸多态性不同变异体在杀鱼爱德华氏菌感染中的作用。在本研究中,实验发现鱼类组蛋白H2A存在着丰富的核苷酸多态性。序列分析结果显示斑马鱼和草鱼组蛋白H2A核苷酸多态性的变异体核苷酸序列相似性为90%～100%;而两两H2A核苷酸多态性变异体氨基酸序列之间最多只有3个位点存在差异。通过体内和体外抗菌实验可知,斑马鱼和草鱼组蛋白H2A核苷酸的多态性显著影响H2A的抗菌活性。此外,筛选出的抗菌组蛋白H2A核苷酸多态性的变异体在斑马鱼体内的过表达,不仅具有免疫增强的作用,还能显著增强斑马鱼对杀鱼爱德华氏菌感染的抗病力。本研究为筛选具有抗病作用的组蛋白H2A免疫保护原奠定了重要基础。     

CRISPR/Cas9技术敲除酿酒酵母gpd2基因对产2,3-丁二醇的影响

旨在利用CRISPR/Cas9基因编辑技术敲除酿酒酵母甘油-3-磷酸脱氢酶基因(gpd2),探究其对2,3-丁二醇产量的影响。根据酿酒酵母(Saccharomyces cerevisiae)W5甘油-3-磷酸脱氢酶基因(gpd2)设计供体片段及gRNA片段,将gRNA片段与可表达Cas9蛋白的敲除载体相连,之后将重组质粒及供体DNA片段转化到S. cerevisiae W5细胞中,根据表型筛选及PCR验证获得gpd2基因缺失菌株。结果表明目的基因gpd2敲除成功,基因缺失菌株与原始菌株经发酵实验相比,甘油产量下降22.01%,乙醇产量提高24.65%,2,3-丁二醇产量下降10.60%。gpd2基因的敲除并没有提高2,3-丁二醇的产量,原因可能是逐渐积累的NADH会优先被细胞内大量的乙醇脱氢酶所氧化,作用于乙醇的产生,而不是优先作用于2,3-丁二醇的合成。本实验构建了适用于酿酒酵母的基因敲除系统,该系统对进一步探究酿酒酵母其他代谢产物与2,3-丁二醇合成之间的关系具有实际的借鉴意义。     

Cf-2/Rcr3pim番茄品系对南方根结线虫的抗性测定

Cf-2/Rcr3~(pim)基因型番茄不仅能够抵御番茄叶霉菌的侵染,而且对马铃薯金线虫的寄生也有一定的抑制效果。为挖掘根结线虫的新抗性资源,本研究采用室内人工接种法测定了Cf-0/Rcr3~(pim)、Cf-2/Rcr3-3和Cf-2/Rcr3~(pim)基因型番茄品系对南方根结线虫的抗感性。抗性评价结果显示,Cf-0/Rcr3~(pim)品系对南方根结线虫表现高感,Cf-2/Rcr3-3品系为中感,而Cf-2/Rcr3~(pim)品系则为感病。与Cf-0/Rcr3~(pim)和Cf-2/Rcr3-3基因型相比,Cf-2/Rcr3~(pim)基因型番茄品系虽然对南方根结线虫侵染的敏感性略低,但是不能阻止线虫在根系上的大量繁殖,不适于根结线虫的防控应用。     

Three SNPs within exons of INHA and ACVR2B genes are significantly associated with litter size in Dazu black goats

The aim of this study was to analyse the association between single-nucleotide polymorphisms within INHA and ACVR2B and litter size in Dazu black goats. In total, twenty-two SNPs were genotyped in 190 individuals by SNaPshot and resequencing. The results showed that three SNPs (SNP_1, SNP_12 and SNP_13 in this study) were detected to have significant additive genetic effect on the recorded goat litter size (p < .05). The SNP_1 (NC_030809.1), a non-synonymous substitution of G for T at chr2-g. 28314990 in the exon 2 of INHA gene (NM_001285606.1), resulted in homozygote 2 (HOM2) contributed 0.25 and heterozygote (HET) contributed 0.12 larger litter than homozygote 1 (HOM1). Meanwhile, SNP_12 (Chr22-g. 11721225 A > T) and SNP_13 (Chr22-g. 11721227 A > C) (NC_030829.1) simultaneously mutated at the first and third position of a triplet AAA (lysine, K) in the exon 4 of ACVR2B gene (XM_018066623.1) had estimated genetic effects of HOM1 (0.00) and HOM2 (0.03) larger than HET (−0.12). In conclusion, one SNPs (chr2-g. 28314990 T > G) within the exon 2 of INHA and two SNPs (Chr22-g. 11721225 A > T and Chr22-g. 11721227 A > C) i n the exon 4 of ACVR2B gene were highly recommended as candidate markers of litter size in Dazu black goats. A large-scale association study to assess the impact of these variants on litter size is still necessary.     

Dynamics of apoptosis-related gene expression during follicular development in yak

The potential reproduction power of domestic animals is limited by a complicated follicular atresia process. P53, caspase-9 (Casp9), Bax, Bcl-2 and Fas play a crucial role in the ovarian mitochondrion-dependent apoptosis and death receptor pathway. In accordance with this study, the expression levels of Casp9, Bax, Bcl-2 and Fas were analysed in ovaries and oviducts of yak by immunohistochemistry (IHC). P53 and the above in ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) from atretic (3–6 mm) to healthy follicles (6–8 mm) and in oviducts were examined from the luteal phase to the follicular phase during the oestrous circle by Western blot (WB) and real-time PCR (RT-PCR). Results demonstrated that typical classic apoptotic factors Casp9, Bax, Bcl-2 and Fas were expressed in the cytoplasm and zonal pellucida of oocytes, primordial follicles, primary follicles, ovarian surface epithelium, ovarian GCs, granular lutein cells, surface epithelia in oviduct uterotubal junction and oviduct ampulla during the luteal phase. RT-PCR and WB revealed that P53 and Fas significantly increased in GCs of atretic follicles. P53 and Casp9 increased in oviduct epithelium during the luteal phase, but Fas was unchanged. A contrary tendency was noted in Bcl-2 and Bax expression. Overall, P53 and Fas play an essential role in inducing GC apoptosis, and Bax, Bcl-2, Casp9 and P53 are involved in oviduct epithelial regeneration in yak.     

SNAT2介导蛋氨酸对牛乳腺上皮细胞增殖与自噬的调节作用

钠离子依赖性中性氨基酸转运体2（SNAT2）是一种氨基酸转运蛋白，可转运中性氨基酸，广泛分布于多种细胞中。氨基酸既可作为蛋白质合成的底物，也是调节细胞新陈代谢的关键信号分子，但SNAT2是否介导氨基酸调节BMECs增殖和自噬尚未见报道。本研究利用CASY细胞计数和Western blotting技术检测SNAT2过表达和siRNA干扰后牛乳腺上皮细胞（BMECs）增殖情况以及SNAT2对自噬标志蛋白LC3-Ⅰ/Ⅱ表达量的影响，并利用免疫荧光检测细胞自噬斑点（LC3-Ⅱ）变化。结果显示，SNAT2过表达时，p-PI3K、p-mTOR和Cyclin D1表达量增加，反之，p-PI3K、p-mTOR和Cyclin D1表达量下降。SNAT2抑制时，LC3-Ⅱ表达量增加，免疫荧光检测自噬斑点增多。添加自噬增强剂海藻糖（trehalose，Tre）和蛋氨酸（methionine，Met）后，与单一添加Tre组相比，Met+Tre组p-mTOR表达量增加，LC3-Ⅱ表达量降低，胞浆内绿色自噬斑点减少；添加Tre和Met并抑制SNAT2时，p-mTOR表达量下降，LC3-Ⅱ表达量增多，胞浆内绿色自噬斑点增加。以上结果表明，SNAT2可介导Met通过调控PI3K-mTOR/Cyclin D1信号通路调节BMECs的增殖与自噬。     

厚壳贻贝5-羟色胺2A受体(5-HT2AR)基因克隆和时空表达

为探究5-羟色胺2A受体（5-HT 2A receptor， 5-HT2AR）基因在海水贝类生长发育中的作用，本研究通过RACE技术和实时荧光定量PCR（qRT-PCR）克隆了厚壳贻贝5-HT2AR 基因的cDNA全长，并分析该基因的时空表达。结果显示，5-HT2AR基因全长2 636 bp，开放阅读框（ORF）2 124 bp，共编码707个氨基酸。序列分析结果显示该序列与人、小鼠、斑马鱼、长牡蛎和虾夷扇贝等物种分别具有45%、45%、48%、49%和67%的同源性。厚壳贻贝雌雄成体各组织和器官中均有5-HT2AR基因表达，雄性中的鳃表达量最高，而在雌性鳃、外套膜和性腺中的表达稍高于其他组织和器官；推测该基因可能与厚壳贻贝的摄食、对外界环境的感知及促进卵母细胞成熟有关。5-HT2AR基因在厚壳贻贝各发育阶段均有表达，且稚贝的表达量为眼点幼虫的1.4倍，推测5-HT2AR基因可能参与了调控厚壳贻贝幼虫的生长发育过程。本研究为进一步了解5-HT基因家族在双壳贝类中的功能奠定了基础。     

Effects of antimicrobial peptides on growth,morphology of foregut villi and related genes mRNA expression in the common carp (Cyprinus carpio)

A 60‐day feeding trial was conducted to examine the effects of different levels (0, 100, 200, 400 and 600 mg/kg) of antimicrobial peptides on growth, protease activity of foregut, the morphology of foregut villi and related genes mRNA expression level in the common carp (Cyprinus carpio). The results showed that the feed of antimicrobial peptides promote common carp growth, and the optimal dosage of antimicrobial peptides is 200–333 mg/kg in the common carp feed. The protease activity of 200 and 400 mg/kg groups were significantly higher than the control and other groups (p < 0.05). The foregut villus height with 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg antimicrobial peptide groups were significantly higher than control group (p < 0.05). The crypt depth of 200 and 400 mg/kg antimicrobial peptide groups were significantly lower than control group (p < 0.05). The ratio of villus height and crypt depth of 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg antimicrobial peptide groups were significantly higher than control group (p < 0.05). The ratio with 600 mg/kg group was significantly lower than the control group (p < 0.05). The IGF‐I gene expression level of 200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg groups were significantly higher than the control group and 600 mg/kg group (p < 0.05). The IL‐1β gene expression level of 100 mg/kg and 200 mg/kg groups were significantly higher than the control group (p < 0.05). These results indicated up‐regulation of growth and immune related genes in antimicrobial peptides fed common carp. Correlation analysis showed that IGF‐I mRNA and IL‐1β mRNA were positively correlated with SGR. IL‐1β mRNA and FCR were significantly negative correlated. It indicated that growth and immune gene common regulated the growth of the carp under antimicrobial peptides intervention. In conclusion, antimicrobial peptides can improve growth and related genes mRNA expression in the common carp. Further studies using molecular biological technique or immunologic methods are required to conclude that antimicrobial peptides are beneficial in common carp.
