Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of gene engineering technology, and more specifically to a transcript of a thioredoxin gene HbCXXS2 and its encoded protein and application. Background Art
[0002] Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are byproducts of plant aerobic metabolism, mainly including hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), superoxide anion (O2 - ), hydroxyl radical (OH - ) etc. Under normal environmental conditions, the generation and removal of ROS in plants is in a dynamic balance, and ROS will not accumulate in large quantities to cause toxicity to plants. However, under biotic or abiotic stress, the dynamic balance of the generation and removal of ROS in plants is broken, resulting in excessive accumulation of ROS, oxidative stress, oxidative damage to the structure and function of plant cells, hindering the normal growth and development of plants, and even leading to plant death. In order to adapt to adverse adverse environments, plants have formed a complex ROS balance regulation mechanism during the evolution process to improve their resistance to oxidative stress and avoid or reduce the oxidative damage to cells caused by the large accumulation of ROS.
[0003] Thioredoxin is an important small molecule redox regulatory protein that is ubiquitous in eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms and plays an important role in maintaining redox balance in organisms. There are many members of the plant thioredoxin family. For example, there are at least 20 thioredoxin genes in the Arabidopsis genome. Based on amino acid sequence and structural characteristics, plant thioredoxins are divided into different types such as f, m, h, o, x, y and z. The vast majority of plant thioredoxins have a highly conserved WC(G / P)PC active center containing two cysteine residues. In a very small number of h-type thioredoxins, the second cysteine in the active center becomes serine, which is CXXS. At present, it is known that Arabidopsis contains two thioredoxin genes with CXXS active centers: AtCXXS1 and AtCXXS2. In addition, CXXS thioredoxin genes were also found in poplar and Medicago truncatula, but it is still unclear whether CXXS thioredoxin genes exist in rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Muell.Arg.).
[0004] Rubber tree is the main commercial source of important industrial raw materials and strategic materials natural rubber. my country's rubber tree planting area is about 17 million mu, distributed in Hainan, Yunnan and Guangdong. These areas belong to non-traditional rubber planting areas, are not the best areas for rubber tree planting, and are susceptible to the influence of abiotic stress such as low temperature and drought. In addition, the incidence of rubber tree cut surface drying up (tapping panel dryness, TPD, often referred to as dead skin in China) is also relatively high, resulting in serious yield and economic losses. Rubber tree cut surface drying up is a complex physiological syndrome, and the main symptom is that the cutting line is partially or completely not discharged after tapping. Studies have shown that redox homeostasis imbalance is one of the important reasons causing the rubber tree cut surface drying up, and the response of oxidative stress is regulated by multiple genes, and transcripts are one or more mature mRNAs that can be used for encoding proteins formed by transcription of a gene, and transcripts are related to biological function activity.

[0057] 2. HbCXXS2 gene structure analysis
[0058] DNA from the leaves of rubber tree Reyan 7-33-97 was extracted using a plant DNA extraction kit (OMEGA). The leaf DNA was used as a template and PCR amplification was performed using the aforementioned HbCXXS2-F / R primers. The amplified product was detected by agarose gel electrophoresis, recovered and purified, and then connected to pEASY-Blunt Simple Cloning Vector (Beijing Quanshijin Biotechnology Co., Ltd.). The connection product was heat-shocked and transformed into Escherichia coli Trans1-T1 Phage Resistant Chemically CompetentCell (Beijing Quanshijin Biotechnology Co., Ltd.). The positive single clone was identified by colony PCR and sent to Hainan Nanshan Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for sequencing.
[0059] The sequencing results showed that the genome sequence of HbCXXS2 from the rubber tree Reyan 7-33-97 was 3435 bp long, and its nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID No. 5. The genome sequences of transcripts HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 were compared and analyzed with those of HbCXXS2, and it was determined that the transcript HbCXXS2.1 was derived from Figure 2 The sequence of Exon 1 is shown in nucleotides 1 to 261 of SEQ ID No. 5, the sequence of Exon 2 is shown in nucleotides 678 to 800 of SEQ ID No. 5, and the sequence of Exon 3 is shown in nucleotides 3067 to 3435 of SEQ ID No. 5. Figure 2 As shown, compared with the HbCXXS2.1 transcript, the HbCXXS2.2 transcript lacks Exon 2 and is composed only of Exons 1 and 3. This indicates that the HbCXXS2 gene pre-mRNA produces two transcripts, HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2, through exon skipping splicing.

[0062] 3. HbCXXS2 protein sequence analysis
[0063] The molecular weight and theoretical isoelectric point of the proteins encoded by the two transcripts of HbCXXS2 were predicted using the online program Compute pI / Mw (https: / / web.expasy.org / compute_pi / ). The results showed that the molecular weight of HbCXXS2.1 protein was 13.82 kDa, and the theoretical isoelectric point was 4.82; the molecular weight of HbCXXS2.2 protein was 9.27 kDa, and the theoretical isoelectric point was 6.22. The amino acid sequences of HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 were analyzed for conserved domains using the online program SMART (http: / / smart.embl-heidelberg.de / ), and the following results were obtained: Figure 3 The results shown show that both HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 proteins contain a thioredoxin domain, but the difference is that the thioredoxin domain of HbCXXS2.1 contains a CXXS active motif, while the thioredoxin domain of HbCXXS2.2 lacks the CXXS active motif.
[0064] Example 2
[0065] This example provides an analysis of the expression characteristics of different transcripts of HbCXXS2.
[0066] 1. Tissue expression analysis of different transcripts of HbCXXS2
[0067] The bark, latex, new shoots, bronze leaves, light green leaves, discoloration leaves, stable leaves, senescent leaves, female flowers, male flowers and root tissue samples of Reyan 7-33-97 tissue culture seedlings (transplanted and cultured for 8 months) of healthy rubber tree Reyan 7-33-97 (16 years old) were collected and frozen in liquid nitrogen. The total RNA of each tissue sample was extracted using a universal plant total RNA extraction kit (Beijing Baitai Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), and the specific extraction method was referred to the kit instructions. PrimeScriptRTreagent Kit with gDNAEraser (Perfect Real Time, TaKaRa) was used to reverse transcribe each sample RNA into cDNA, and the specific implementation was referred to the kit instructions. The internal reference gene used the rubber tree HbUBC4 gene, and Primer Premier5 was used to design and synthesize specific primers for real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) detection of HbUBC4 and transcripts HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 expression.

[0075] SEQ ID No. 12: 5′-TACAAAGAGGTGCAGCGTGA-3′;
[0076] SEQ ID No. 13: 5′-ACTCCGCCCTCATAAGGAGT-3′.
[0077] qRT-PCR reaction system: SYBR Premix Ex Taq (2×) (TaKaRa) 5 μL, forward and reverse primers 0.4 μL each, cDNA template 1 μL, supplemented with ddH2O to a total volume of 10 μL. The detection was performed using a CFX96 fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument (Bio-Rad), and the reaction conditions were: 95°C for 30 s; 95°C for 5 s, 60°C for 30 s, and 40 cycles. The relative expression of the gene was calculated using formula 2 -ΔΔCt .
[0078] Expression of two transcripts of HbCXXS2 gene in various tissues of rubber tree Figure 4As shown in the results, HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 were expressed in the roots, bark, latex, new shoots, bronze leaves, light green leaves, color change leaves, stable leaves, senescent leaves, female flowers and male flowers of rubber trees. Among them, the expression levels of both transcripts were the highest in latex. In the same tissue, the expression level of HbCXXS2.1 was higher than that of HbCXXS2.2. The HbCXXS2 gene was highly expressed in latex, which suggested that it might be involved in the regulation of rubber production and discharge in rubber trees.
[0079] 2. Changes in HbCXXS2 expression during the occurrence and recovery of cut surface desiccation (TPD) in rubber trees
[0080] TPD symptoms were observed on rubber trees in rubber plantations. 90 rubber trees with a cut line and cut surface drying rate of 60% to 80% were selected and randomly divided into two groups: a TPD recovery treatment group (60 plants) and a TPD control group (30 plants). At the same time, 30 rubber trees with completely normal cut line rubber discharge were selected as a healthy control group. The plants in the TPD recovery treatment group were treated with a combination of dead skin recovery preparations (Dead Skin Condensation Gel and Dead Skin Condensation Aqueous Agent, developed by the Rubber Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences, and can be obtained from the Rubber Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences). The treatment method and cycle refer to the instructions of the Dead Skin Recovery Combination Preparation. The treatment lasted for 5 months, and the TPD symptoms of plants in each group were observed. 15 plants with a TPD length recovery rate of more than 80% were selected from the TPD recovery treatment group, 15 plants with a cut line length and cut surface drying rate close to that of the recovery group before treatment were selected from the TPD control group, and 15 plants with completely normal cut line rubber discharge were selected from the healthy control group. Latex samples of each plant were collected and frozen in liquid nitrogen. An equal amount of latex sample was taken from each strain, and 5 strains were mixed together as a biological replicate. According to the method in Example 1, total RNA of each sample was extracted, reverse transcribed to synthesize cDNA, and qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression levels of two transcripts of the HbCXXS2 gene in each sample.
[0081] Test results such as Figure 5 As shown by Figure 5 It can be seen that compared with the latex of healthy plants, the expression of HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 in the latex of TPD plants was significantly reduced; compared with the latex of TPD plants, the expression of HbCXXS2.1 in the latex of restored plants was significantly increased, and there was no significant difference with the expression in the latex of healthy plants. The expression of HbCXXS2.2 also increased significantly, but did not return to the normal level, and was still significantly lower than the latex of healthy plants. The above results show that the expression of HbCXXS2 gene is closely related to the occurrence and recovery of TPD in rubber trees. Improving the expression of HbCXXS2 gene in normal plants can reduce the occurrence of TPD, and promoting the expression of HbCXXS2 gene in the latex of TPD plants is conducive to the recovery of TPD.
[0082] 3. Expression changes of different transcripts of HbCXXS2 under oxidative stress
[0083] Expression analysis of different transcripts of HbCXXS2 under oxidative stress induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2): 54 healthy plants of rubber tree Reyan 7-33-97 tissue culture seedlings transplanted and cultured for 8 months were selected, and 20mmol / LH2O2 solution was evenly sprayed on the front and back of the leaves of the plants. The second and third leaves of the plants were collected at 0, 3, 6, 12, 24 and 48h after treatment, respectively. The leaves of every 3 plants were used as a biological replicate, and there were 3 biological replicates at each time point. After the samples were collected, they were frozen in liquid nitrogen. According to the method in Example 1, the total RNA of each sample was extracted, reverse transcribed to synthesize cDNA, and qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression levels of the two transcripts of the HbCXXS2 gene in each sample. The leaf samples treated for 0h were used as the control. The following is obtained: Figure 6 Results shown.
[0084] Expression analysis of different transcripts of HbCXXS2 under oxidative stress induced by methyl viologen (MV): 200 μmol / LMV solution (solute is MV, solvent is sterile distilled water) was used to replace 20 mmol / L H2O2 solution, and the rest of the operation was the same as that of the expression analysis of different transcripts of HbCXXS2 under oxidative stress induced by H2O2. Figure 7 Results shown.
[0085] Depend on Figure 6 It can be seen that under H2O2-induced oxidative stress, the expression change patterns of the two transcripts of HbCXXS2 were basically the same, both showing a trend of gradually decreasing first and then recovering; the expression level dropped to the lowest point at 12h of treatment, and then gradually recovered, but it was still significantly lower than the control (0h) at 48h of treatment. Figure 7 It can be seen that under the oxidative stress induced by MV, the expression change pattern of two transcripts of HbCXXS2 is basically the same, and the expression level significantly decreases when processing 3h, and then recovers; the difference is that when processing 6h, the expression level of HbCXXS2.2 returns to normal level, while the expression level of HbCXXS2.1 is still significantly lower than the control (0h). Same as H2O2 induced oxidative stress, the expression of two transcripts drops to the lowest point when MV processes 12h, and then gradually recovers, but is still significantly lower than the control (0h) when processing 48h. The above results show that the oxidative stress induced by H2O2 and MV significantly suppresses the expression of two transcripts of HbCXXS2. The result of the present embodiment shows that two transcripts of gene HbCXXS2 are significantly related to the oxidative stress of rubber tree, indicating that gene HbCXXS2 is significantly related to the oxidative stress of rubber tree.

In the 2.5 and 3 mM H2O2 treatment groups, the OD 600 The values were significantly higher than those of INVSc1(pYES2), and the OD 600 The value was significantly higher than that of INVSc1(pYES2-HbCXXS2.2). The above results show that expressing the transcripts HbCXXS2.1 or HbCXXS2.2 of the HbCXXS2 gene in yeast enhances the resistance of recombinant yeast to oxidative stress and improves the growth activity of recombinant yeast under H2O2-induced oxidative stress treatment, and the antioxidant activity of recombinant yeast expressing transcript HbCXXS2.1 is better than that of recombinant yeast expressing transcript HbCXXS2.2.

[0134] 1. Construction of plant overexpression vectors of different HbCXXS2 transcripts and genetic transformation of tobacco
[0135] According to SEQ ID No. 1 and SEQ ID No. 3, a primer pair for amplifying the open reading frames of the two transcripts of HbCXXS2 was designed, and the recognition sequences of restriction endonucleases Nco I and BstEII (shown by the underlined parts in the following primers) and protective bases were introduced into the 5′ ends of the forward and reverse primers, respectively. The sequence of primer HbCXXS2-OF is shown in SEQ ID No. 20, and the sequence of primer HbCXXS2-OR is shown in SEQ ID No. 21:
[0136] SEQ ID No.20: 5′-TA CCATGGATGGAGACCCAAGAGCAGC-3′;
[0137] SEQ ID No.21: 5′-GT GGTTACC CTAGGCTACAGCCACACGAA-3′.
[0138] PCR amplification was performed with reference to the reaction system and procedure in Example 3. The target fragments of HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 were recovered and purified, and connected to pEASY-Blunt Simple Cloning Vector (Beijing Quanshijin Biotechnology Co., Ltd.). The ligation products were transformed into Escherichia coli Trans1-T1 Phage Resistant Chemically Competent Cell. Single clones were picked and positive colony PCR was performed. The positive single clones were sent to Hainan Nanshan Biotechnology Co., Ltd. for sequencing. The correct single clones and plant overexpression vector pCAMBIA1301 plasmids were extracted and double digested with restriction endonucleases Nco I and BstEII (Thermo Scientific). The digestion products were detected by agarose gel electrophoresis, and the target bands were recovered. T4 DNA ligase (Thermo Scientific) was used to connect the recovered HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 fragments to the pCAMBIA1301 vector backbone. The ligation product was transformed into competent E. coli DH5α cells, spread on LB solid (containing 100 mg / L ampicillin) plates, and cultured at 37°C overnight. Single clones were picked and identified by colony PCR using CaMV35S promoter primer (35S: 5′-TGACGCACAATCCCACTATCC-3′) plus HbCXXS2-OR primer. Plant overexpression vectors pCAMBIA1301-HbCXXS2.1 and pCAMBIA1301-HbCXXS2.2 of different transcripts of the HbCXXS2 gene were obtained. pCAMBIA1301-HbCXXS2.1 and pCAMBIA1301-HbCXXS2.2 plasmids were extracted and transformed into Agrobacterium EHA105 competent cells (Coolaber Company). The two plant overexpression vectors were transformed into Nicotiana benthamiana (obtained from Rubber Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences) using Agrobacterium-mediated tobacco leaf disc transformation.
[0139] 2. Molecular detection of genetically modified tobacco
[0140] The plant DNA extraction kit (OMEGA) was used to extract the leaf DNA of the transgenic tobacco regenerated plants. Using the leaf DNA as a template, the aforementioned CaMV35S promoter primer plus the HbCXXS2-OR primer was used for PCR amplification. PCR amplification and agarose gel electrophoresis detection were performed with reference to the reaction system and procedure in Example 3. The total RNA of each positive transgenic plant leaf was extracted using a universal plant total RNA extraction kit (Beijing Baitai Biotechnology Co., Ltd.), and the specific extraction method was referred to the kit manual. The total RNA of each sample was reverse transcribed into cDNA using PrimeScript RTreagentKitwithgDNAEraser (Perfect Real Time, TaKaRa), and the specific implementation was referred to the kit manual. The expression of HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 genes in the corresponding transgenic plants was detected with reference to the qRT-PCR reaction system and conditions of Example 2. The qRT-PCR primers for detecting transcripts HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 were the same as those in Example 2, and the internal reference gene was Nicotiana benthamiana EF1a (AY206004.1). The sequence of primer EF1a-QF was shown in SEQ ID No. 22, and the sequence of primer EF1a-QR was shown in SEQ ID No. 23:
[0141] SEQ ID No. 22: 5′-TACCACCCCCAAGTACTCCA-3′;
[0142] SEQ ID No. 23: 5′-ATATTGTCCCTCGAAACC-3′.
[0143] Agarose gel electrophoresis results Fig.12 shown. Fig.12 The results showed that 7 transgenic plants with HbCXXS2.1 gene were obtained, and 12 transgenic plants with HbCXXS2.2 gene were obtained. The expression levels of the corresponding genes in the corresponding plants were detected, and the following results were obtained: Fig.13 The results shown show that 6 out of 7 HbCXXS2.1 gene-positive plants (2-7) were detected with higher HbCXXS2.1 expression, and 8 out of 12 HbCXXS2.2 gene-positive plants (10, 11, 13, 15-19) were detected with higher HbCXXS2.2 expression.
[0144] 3. Identification of antioxidant activity of transgenic strains
[0145] The seeds of homozygous T3 transgenic lines (HbCXXS2.1-5, -7 and HbCXXS2.2-11, -16) and wild-type (Wt) tobacco with high expression were sterilized with 75% alcohol for 30s, 30% sodium hypochlorite for 10min, and washed with sterile water. They were then inoculated on solid MS medium and cultured in an artificial climate chamber for 14 days. Seedlings with similar growth were selected and transplanted into solid MS medium containing 0 (control group) or 4mM H2O2 (H2O2 treatment group). After 4 weeks of culture in an artificial climate chamber, the fresh weight and plant height of the plants were measured. Twelve plants were measured for each line to compare the differences between the transgenic lines and the wild-type plants.
[0146] After 4 weeks of culture, Fig.14 The results shown. Fig.14 It can be seen that in the control group, there was no significant difference in the phenotypes of HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 transgenic lines and Wt plants, and the plant size, plant height and fresh weight were basically similar, indicating that overexpression of HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 in tobacco had no significant effect on the growth and development of plants under normal conditions. Oxidative stress treatment induced by 4mmol / L H2O2 significantly inhibited the growth of transgenic lines and Wt tobacco seedlings, but the inhibitory effect on transgenic HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 gene lines was significantly less than that on Wt. After 4 weeks of oxidative stress culture, there was no significant difference between transgenic HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 gene lines, but the plants of transgenic HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 gene lines were significantly larger than Wt. The average fresh weight of HbCXXS2.1-5, HbCXXS2.1-7, HbCXXS2.2-11, and HbCXXS2.2-16 strains were 93, 83, 85, and 89 mg, respectively, which were significantly heavier than Wt (58 mg). The average plant height of HbCXXS2.1-5, HbCXXS2.1-7, HbCXXS2.2-11, and HbCXXS2.2-16 strains was 1.63, 1.58, 1.57, and 1.58 cm, respectively, which were significantly higher than Wt (1.17 cm). The above results showed that overexpression of HbCXXS2.1 and HbCXXS2.2 in Nicotiana benthamiana promoted the growth of transgenic plants under H2O2-induced oxidative stress and improved their resistance to oxidative stress.
