We cloned and expressed bile salt hydrolase gene of Lactobacillus plantarum M1-UVS29 in Lactococcus lactis NZ9000 successfully. Gene-specific primers for amplification of L. plantarum bsh were designed by using sequence which availabled from Gen Bank. The production of PCR amplicon was confirmed by sequencing and cloned into pMD18-T vector, and then recombined into expression vector p NZ8148 and yielding vector p NZ8148-BSH. p NZ8148-BSH was transferred into Lactococcus lactis NZ9000. Sequencing indicated that the cloned bsh fragment contained 995 nucleotides, and shared 99.3% sequence homology with bsh gene from L. plantarum MBUL10. Cloned bsh fragment was successfully transduced into NICE expression system and confirmed by PCR and restriction digest. Recombinant BSH protein was analyzed by SDS-PAGE. The molecular weight of BSH protein was approximately 37 ku. Activity of the expressed protein was 0.77 μmol · min-1.

干旱是影响植物生长发育的重要环境因素。本研究分析了日本百脉根抗旱相关基因LjbHLH34的耐旱功能，初步解析其响应干旱胁迫的分子机制，以期为百脉根抗旱分子育种提供理论基础。本研究克隆得到的LjbHLH34基因大小为711 bp、编码236个氨基酸，属bHLH转录因子家族成员。系统进化树分析显示，LjbHLH34蛋白与拟南芥bHLHⅣ亚家族中AtbHLH34和AtbHLH104亲缘关系较近。实时荧光定量分析表明LjbHLH34在日本百脉根的根中表达量最高，叶中次之，茎中最少，暗示其在日本百脉根多个组织中发挥作用；同时LjbHLH34基因也受聚乙二醇(PEG)和脱落酸(ABA)诱导表达。在酵母中检测发现LjbHLH34具有转录激活活性；亚细胞定位试验表明LjbHLH34蛋白定位于细胞核中。将LjbHLH34基因转入拟南芥获得过表达株系。在200 mmol·L^-1甘露醇胁迫下，LjbHLH34转基因拟南芥的根长明显长于野生型。干旱处理后，野生型拟南芥比转基因拟南芥萎蔫程度更加明显，而转基因株系的相对含水量和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性显著高于野生型，丙二醛(MDA)积累...     

黄瓜低霜霉威残留性相关基因SDH克隆及表达

通过Solexa技术和比较基因组学方法鉴定霜霉威胁迫下黄瓜果实差异表达基因,筛选黄瓜低霜霉威残留性相关基因SDH。研究利用PCR克隆获得SDH基因全长,命名为Cs SDH。构建亚细胞定位表达载体,利用农杆菌浸润法注射烟草叶片后激光共聚焦显微镜下观察;分别用荧光定量RT-PCR方法和酶联免疫法研究高、低农残品系D9320和D0351中Cs SDH基因在农药霜霉威处理后,不同时间点、不同组织部位时空表达特征和琥珀酸脱氢酶活性。结果表明,Cs SDH基因在烟草叶片细胞中被定位在细胞膜上。黄瓜低农残品种D0351中,Cs SDH基因在果实受霜霉威胁迫后反应迅速,主要在处理前期响应表达强烈,琥珀酸脱氢酶活性显著增加,且该基因表达量显著高于其在高农残品种D9320中表达量。Cs SDH果、叶中表达量较茎中高,且各组织部位表达量高低顺序稳定,为叶果茎。黄瓜高农残品种D9320中,Cs SDH基因表达量在0.5、1、3、12 h呈现上调表达,6、9 h基因表达量差异不显著,48 h出现上调表达高峰。说明克隆得到的Cs SDH基因属农药处理前期响应基因,且该基因可能在降低黄瓜农药残留过程中发挥重要作用。试验通过研究黄瓜琥珀酸脱氢酶基因(SDH)在霜霉威胁迫下表达情况,为挖掘黄瓜低农药残留性功能基因以及探明其作用分子机制奠定基础。     

Cloning of Inhibin-α Gene and its mRNA Expression Pattern in the Ovary of Congjiang Xiang Pig

To reveal the relationship between inhibin-α(INHA) gene and the reproductive traits of Congjiang Xiang pig, INHA gene was cloned and sequenced taking the genomic DNA of Congjiang Xiang pigs as templates by polymerase chain reaction(PCR) method.The polymorphisms of INHA gene were tested in Congjiang Xiang pig populations with high-litter size and low-litter size using allele-specific PCR(AS-PCR) method.The expression profile of INHA gene in ovaries was detected from Congjiang Xiang pigs with high-litter yiled or low-litter yiled by Real-time PCR method.The complete coding region of INHA gene was 1095 bp in length, which coded for 364 amino acid residues.Compared with the known sequence, two candidate sites, G359A and A373G, were found out from exon 2 region of INHA gene in Congjiang Xiang pig.After investigation for the two sites in a large population, the frequency of alleles between two populations was not significant and without obvious relativity with the litter yiled of Congjiang Xiang pig.However, the INHA mRNA level in the ovary of Congjiang Xiang pig with high-litter yiled was higher than that with low-litter yiled.It suggested that INHA gene was much conserved, INHA gene expression level might be concerned for the regulation of ovary growth and follicle development in Congjiang Xiang pig breed.
