摘要
SWEET基因家族为新发现的一类糖转运蛋白家族,具有转运蔗糖及单糖的功能,在真核生物中广泛存在,其特点为具有1~2个MtN3_slv结构域及7个跨膜结构域,对植物生长发育、生理代谢及植物-病原菌互作等方面具有重要的调控作用。为了探索热带作物木薯中SWEET基因的功能,本研究采用RT-PCR技术,从木薯Ku50成熟叶片中克隆得到MeSWEET1基因的编码序列,并对其进行了生物信息学预测分析和功能初步研究。本研究结果表明:MeSWEET1蛋白含有植物SWEET家族两个保守的MtN3_Slv功能域,还具有7个跨膜结构域。系统进化树分析显示,MeSWEET1与拟南芥AtSWEET1、水稻OsSWEET1a和OsSWEET1b亲缘关系最近,属于SWEET蛋白家族进化树的Clade I分枝class II小家族。亚细胞定位结果表明,MeSWEET1蛋白定位于细胞膜上。组织特异性表达分析揭示,MeSWEET1在木薯成熟叶片中相对表达量最高,而在新叶和果实中相对表达量最低。本研究的结果将为进一步研究木薯MeSWEET1基因在糖转运及与病原互作等方面的功能奠定了初步的理论基础。
SWEET gene famil y is a novel identified sugar transporter family.SWEET protein can selectively transport sucrose or monosaccharide and it is widely present in higher eukaryotes.SWEET protein harbors one or two Mt N3_slv motif and contains seven transmembrane domains, which play a crucial role in plant development,physiological processes and plant-microbe interaction. In order to elucidate the function ofSWEET gene in tropical plant Cassava, a cDNA of full-length MeSWEET1 gene was cloned by RT-PCR technique and its primarily function was explored in the present study. Our results showed: MeSWEET1 protein contains two conserved Mt N3-slv motifs and seven transmembrane domains, which are the characteristic feathers of plantSWEET proteins. Phylogenetic analysis showed that MeSWEET1 belongs to Clade I branch, Class II sub-family inSWEET evolutionary tree and was relatively clo se d to AtSWEET1, OsSWEET1 a and OsSWEET1 b in evolution. Tissue specific expression pattern showed that MeSWEET1 gene was differentially expressed in tested five organs of Cassava. The expression level of MeSWEE1 was relatively most abundant in mature leaf and was relatively lowestin young leaf and fruit. Our results provided a solid foundation for further investigate of the biological function of MeSWEET1 involved in sugar translocation and Cassava-microbe interaction fields.
