Problems solved by technology

Recently, using multi-omics analysis and molecular biology techniques, the molecular mechanism of steroidal alkaloid synthesis in tomato has been basically determined, from the glycolysis pathway through the mevalonate pathway to the cycloartenol pathway to generate cholesterol. Hydroxylation, oxidation, transamination, cyclization and other reactions generate steroidal alkaloids, but the mechanism of metabolic regulation is still unclear

Embodiment 1

[0023] Embodiment 1, the cloning of tomato SlbHLH114 gene

[0024] (1) Extraction of total RNA from tomato leaves

[0025] Take an appropriate amount of tomato leaves, quick-frozen in liquid nitrogen, and use a rapid grinder to thoroughly pulverize three times at 45Hz, 30s, add lysate, and extract total RNA according to the instructions of Plant RNA Extraction Kit V1.5 (BIOFIT). The RNA quality was detected by agarose gel electrophoresis, and the RNA concentration was detected by a NanoDrop 2000 spectrophotometer.

[0026] (2) Cloning of tomato SlbHLH114 gene

[0027] Using the extracted total RNA as a template, cDNA was synthesized according to the instructions of the Takara reverse transcription kit; gene-specific primers were designed according to the sequence of the SlbHLH114 gene, the specific sequence is as follows:

[0028] SlbHLH114 upstream primer: 5'-atggaacaactcgcggtttc-3' (SEQ ID NO.1);

[0029] SlbHLH114 downstream primer: 5'-atttacaaatcatagctagtaagaa-3' (SEQ I...

Embodiment 2

[0032] Embodiment 2, the construction of the plant expression vector containing SlbHLH114

[0033] To study the effect of SlbHLH114 gene on the content of steroidal alkaloids in tomato, overexpression vectors pBin19-E8-SlbHLH114 and 35S-SlbHLH114-NPTII vectors were constructed respectively. The non-specific arms of the respective vectors were added to the forward and reverse primers, and the primers are shown in Table 1.

Abstract

The invention discloses application of a transcription factor involved in regulating tomato steroid alkaloid synthesis. The amino acid sequence of the transcription factor SlbHLH114 is as shown in SEQID NO.4, and the nucleotide sequence is as shown in SEQ ID NO.3. Overexpression of the transcription factor has a positive regulating effect on the synthesis of tomato steroid alkaloids, so the steroid alkaloid content of transgenic lines can be improved by overexpressing the transcription factor SlbHLH114 in plants, and a theoretical basis is provided for tomato quality improving and excellent breeding.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to the application of a transcription factor involved in regulating the synthesis of tomato steroidal alkaloids. Background technique [0002] Steroidal alkaloids (SAs) and their glycosylated forms (steroidal alkaloid glycosides, SGAs) are nitrogen-containing toxic compounds in the plant family, also known as Solanaceous alkaloids, belonging to the Solanaceae (Solanaceae), especially Is a common ingredient in the Solanum family. In plants, steroidal alkaloids often act as antibiotics, providing plants with a pre-existing chemical barrier against various pathogens, such as α-tomatine, which acts by disrupting membranes, leading to leakage of electrolytes and depolarization of membrane potential . Studies have shown that due to the presence of steroidal glycoalkaloids and acetylated steroidal glycoalkaloids in tomato cell membranes, the toxicity of α-tomatine to plant cells is reduced, ...
