两个ADP-葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶α亚基基因在甘薯中的超量表达

ADP-葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(AGPase)催化ADP-葡萄糖合成反应,是淀粉生物合成的限速酶之一。为研究甘薯AGPase与块根淀粉合成的关系,从高淀粉甘薯品种川薯34中克隆了AGPase基因的两个α亚基编码序列AGPa1和AGPa2;构建植物表达载体pC-AGPa1和pC-AGPa2后经根癌农杆菌EHA105介导分别导入甘薯品种西成薯007;获得表达了GUS的7株AGPa1和5株AGPa2转基因甘薯植株。RT-PCR和AGPase活性检测表明,AGPa1和AGPa2基因在转基因植株中表达水平高于对照,并引起甘薯叶片中AGPase活性显著增加。     

Enhancement of Tuberous Root Production and Adenosine 5'-Diphosphate Pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) Activity in Sweet Potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.) by Exogenous Injection of Sucrose Solution

Adenosine 5'-diphosphate pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) is a key enzyme governing starch synthesis and is regarded as an important determinant of the sink activity of the sweet potato root. In this study, assuming that the expression of AGPase is under the direct or indirect control of sucrose, we investigated the effect of exogenous injection of sucrose solution into a plant on the activity of AGPase and tuberous root production. Sucrose solutions of 6 and 12 %, and distilled water as the control, were injected into the top of the shoot. The application of sucrose solution was effective in increasing tuberous root production and increasing the ratio of tuberous root weight to total root weight in a plant. AGPase activity in roots was enhanced by about 25 % by injecting sucrose solution. These results suggest that AGPase and sink activities are controlled by sucrose transported from the leaves. To increase sweet potato production effectively, AGPase activity and sink function must be enhanced, and so a genetic and physiological improvement in photosynthetic function or sucrose productivity in the leaves is necessary to increase AGPase activity in sink organs.     

烤烟大田生长期烟叶中淀粉合成的酶活性变化

对K326、红花大金元(HD)2个烤烟品种在云南常规施肥情况下烟叶中ADPG焦磷酸化酶、淀粉合成酶、Q酶活性的变化及可溶性总糖、还原糖和淀粉含量的变化进行了研究。结果表明：K326,HD的ADPG焦磷酸化酶、淀粉合成酶活性在移栽后第40d开始升高,都在生理成熟期第90d达到高峰,以后迅速下降。2个品种的Q酶活性高峰在移栽后80d出现,但2个品种的Q酶活性变化规律不一致。K326的Q酶活性移栽后第60d开始先下降,65d以后迅速上升,移栽后80d达到高峰后又下降IHD的Q酶活性移栽后第柏d开始一直上升,移栽后第80d达到高峰后缓慢下降。2个品种可溶性总糖、还原糖含量都在移栽后第40d迅速升高,持续稳定20d以后下降,移栽后90d又迅速上升。2个品种淀粉含量都在移栽后60d上升,在生理成熟期达到最高(HD在移栽后90d,K326在移栽后110d)。

Sucrose synthase dominates carbohydrate metabolism and relative growth rate in growing kiwifruit (Actinidia deliciosa, cv Hayward)

Changes in fruit growth rate, carbohydrate content (glucose, fructose, sucrose and starch) and enzyme activity (sucrose synthase, UDPglucose pyrophosphorylase, fructokinase, glucokinase, sucrose phosphate synthase, ADPglucose pyrophosphorylase and invertases), in the external pericarp of kiwifruit, were measured throughout the growing season. Sucrose synthase showed the highest activity among the sucrose cleaving enzymes during large part of the growing season. The activity of invertases were much lower than that of sucrose synthase until ripening started. Sucrose synthase showed a tight although not linear relationship with the fruit RGR. Furthermore, sucrose synthase showed linear and significant correlations with the activities of both fructokinase and UDPglucose pyrophosphorylase indicating a strong co-regulation of the activities of these three enzymes involved in sucrose cleavage and sink strength, in kiwifruit. Sucrose synthase is suggested to be the dominating enzyme in the cleavage of imported carbon in kiwifruit, in tight coordination with fructokinase and UDPglucose pyrophosphorylase.
