Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of genetic engineering technology, and specifically relates to the VvYUC10 gene and its application. Background Art
[0002] In grape (Vitis vinifera L.) cultivation, due to the increase in high-salinity groundwater, unreasonable irrigation methods, and the increase in soil evaporation caused by climate change, soil salinization occurs (Rengasamy et al., 2006). Excessive salt in the soil can cause water shortage and nutritional imbalance in grape plants, osmotic stress and ionic stress, oxidative stress and other physiological and biochemical stress responses (Zhu et al., 2002), and even affect the formation of fruit quality.
[0003] Flavin monooxygenase (YUC) is a rate-limiting enzyme in the auxin synthesis pathway in plants (Mashiguchi et al., 2002), participating in the catalysis of indole-3-pyruvate (IPA) in the tryptophan-dependent pathway of auxin synthesis (Naser et al., 2016), and IPA then generates the plant growth hormone (Indole-3-acetic acid, IAA) (Cao al., 2019). IAA exists in all land plants and is involved in regulating biological processes such as plant polarity, apical dominance, tropic movement, senescence, pathogen response, abiotic stress response, and fruit formation (Gao et al., 2024). Transgenic potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.) overexpressing AtYUC6 showed high auxin accumulation, high water retention capacity, and low ROS levels, thus enhancing the drought tolerance of potatoes (Cheol et al., 2013; Kim et al., 2013). In poplar, overexpressing AtYUC6 increased the auxin level and the efficiency of photosystem II under drought stress, and reduced the ROS level in cells, thereby maintaining the cell membrane permeability (Ke et al., 2015). In addition, Chen et al. reported that the downregulated expression of LiYUC4 and LiYUC10 was observed while the content of endogenous IAA decreased in normally developing lily somatic embryos (Chen et al., 2020). Research reports show that members of the YUC gene family in plants such as Isatis indigotica, Vigna radiata, and lily all showed strong responses to abiotic stresses such as salt, drought, and high temperature, and also regulated the content change of IAA (Wu et al., 2023; Qin et al., 2020; Chen et al., 2020). In particular, Arabidopsis seedlings overexpressing the CsYUC11 gene showed salt tolerance in plant growth (Yan etal., 2016). Currently, there are few reports on the research of grape VvYUC10 in grape salt stress. Summary of the Invention

[0106] 1.5 Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation and identification of Arabidopsis thaliana
[0107] (1) Activate Agrobacterium tumefaciens carrying the VvYUC10 gene.
[0108] (2) Centrifuge the activated bacterial liquid to enrich the bacteria (6000 rpm, 10 min), and discard the supernatant.
[0109] (3) Resuspend the bacteria with infiltration buffer (1 / 2 MS, 5% sucrose, 0.03% Silwet-L77) and adjust the OD600 to 0.6 for later use.
[0110] (4) Use Arabidopsis thaliana at the flowering stage as the infection material. Cut off the existing pods, immerse the inflorescence completely in the infiltration solution for 30 s, take it out and blot dry the infiltration solution stained on other parts, then cover the Arabidopsis thaliana plants with a film and place them in the artificial climate chamber for dark culture for 24 h. Remove the film and adjust to the normal growth conditions of Arabidopsis thaliana.
[0111] (5) Repeat the above operations after 4 days to ensure the transformation efficiency. The materials after inflorescence infiltration were maintained under normal growth management until the seeds matured, and the seeds were the T0 generation transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana.
[0112] 1.5.1 Screening and identification of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana:
[0113] (1) Disinfect the dried seeds of the T0 generation by the following process: soak them in 75% alcohol for 15 s, wash with sterile water 5 times, soak in 10% sodium hypochlorite for 5 min, and wash with sterile water 5 times. During this period, invert and mix well repeatedly.
[0114] (2) After surface disinfection, leave a little sterile water in the centrifuge tube, seal it and place it at 4 °C in the dark for vernalization for 2 days.
[0115] (3) After vernalization, sow the seeds on 1 / 2MS screening medium (+Kana 50 mg L -1 ) and culture them under the conditions of 22 °C, 16 h light / 8 h dark.
[0116] (4) Two weeks later, the positive transformed plants grew well, with two cotyledons being green, while the cotyledons of negative plants turned yellow. Select the Arabidopsis thaliana with normal growth on the plate and transplant it into the growth substrate. When the plants grow 7 - 8 true leaves, collect the leaves and extract DNA for PCR identification. The plants identified as positive were continued to be cultured in the artificial climate chamber until the seeds matured, and the T1 generation seeds were obtained.
[0117] (5) Continue to repeat the above screening process of steps 1 - 4 using the T1 generation as seeds until the homozygous transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana seeds of the T3 generation are harvested for subsequent salt tolerance function verification.
[0118] 1.6 Agrobacterium - mediated genetic transformation and identification of grape callus:
[0119] (1) Activate the Agrobacterium liquid containing the over - expressed VvYUC10 gene stored at ultra - low temperature. The specific method is as follows:
[0120] Prepare the grape callus required for infection;
[0121] Prepare the Agrobacterium infection solution: Pick the Agrobacterium (single colony of Agrobacterium carrying the recombinant plasmid) and inoculate it into the liquid LB medium containing kanamycin. Shake - culture it overnight on a constant - temperature shaker at 28 °C and 180 rpm until the OD 600 reaches 0.4 - 0.6; Centrifuge at 5000 rpm at room temperature for 10 min, discard the supernatant, and suspend the Agrobacterium cell pellet to be infected with sterile water containing 200 μmol·L -1 acetosyringone (ACE).
[0122] Infection and co-culture: Put the callus into the above-mentioned bacterial solution, shake it at 100 rpm on a shaker at 28 °C for 10 min, suck off the surface bacterial solution with sterile filter paper, and then use forceps to transfer the callus into the B5 co-culture medium without any antibiotics, and culture it in the dark at room temperature for 2 d;
[0123] Washing the bacteria: Wash the co-cultured callus with sterile water containing 300 mg / L cefalexin, dry it with sterile filter paper, and transfer it onto the MS screening medium for incubation at a constant temperature;
[0124] Screening: Spread the above-mentioned callus evenly on the callus screening medium (containing 300 mg / L cefamycin and 50 mg / L kanamycin); After culturing for about 30 d, transfer the newly grown callus to a new callus screening medium (containing 300 mg / L cefamycin and 50 mg / L kanamycin);
[0125] Detection: Subculture and screen the callus that grows normally on the screening medium to obtain resistant callus with stable growth for detection. Extract the DNA of the screened resistant callus and identify whether it is transgenic callus by PCR detection.
[0126] (2) After activation is completed, centrifuge at 6000 rpm for 10 min at room temperature to enrich the bacteria, and discard the supernatant.
[0127] (3) Suspend the bacteria with the resuspension solution (1 / 2 B5 + 20 g·L -1 sucrose + 200 μmol·L -1 acetosyringone) and adjust the OD 600 value of the bacterial solution to be between 0.5 - 0.6, and resuscitate at 28 °C and 180 rpm for 1 h for later use.
[0128] (4) In the ultra-clean workbench, select well-grown 'Pinot Noir' callus, dry the surface moisture with sterile filter paper, put it into a sterile centrifuge tube, and add the overexpression and RNA interference Agrobacterium bacterial solutions resuspended in the previous step respectively. The callus needs to be completely immersed in the bacterial solution.
[0129] (5) Use a portable vacuum pump to perform negative pressure infection for 10 min, and shake the centrifuge tube during this period to ensure sufficient infection of the tissue blocks.
[0130] (6) After the infection process is completed, suck off the excess bacterial solution on the surface of the callus with sterile filter paper and place it evenly on the callus medium (1 / 2 B5 + 20 g·L -1 sucrose + 7 g·L -1 agar) for co-culture for 48 h.
[0131] (7) After co - cultivation, the transformed materials were washed 3 times with an antibiotic (1 / 2 B5 + 20 g L -1 sucrose + 300 mg L -1 cef) aqueous mixture for 5 min each time, with shaking during the period, and finally rinsed 5 times with sterile water.
[0132] (8) The callus that had undergone the sterilization step was inoculated onto a callus screening medium containing antibiotics (B5 + 0.5 mg·L -1 NAA + 1 mg·L -1 KT + 20 g·L -1 sucrose + 7 g·L -1 agar + 1 g·L -1 inositol + 300 mg·L - 1 PVP + 300 mg·L -1 Cef + Kana 50 mg·L -1 ).
[0133] (9) After the callus grew for a period of time, new white callus grew out. It was transferred to the B5 screening medium for positive callus screening, and this was repeated three times. DNA was extracted and positive callus was identified by PCR. The tissues identified as positive were continuously transferred and proliferated for subsequent functional research.
[0134] 1.7 Fluorescent quantification of stress - related genes in over - expression lines of the target gene:
[0135] Total RNA of grape callus and Arabidopsis thaliana was extracted according to the RNAprep pure Plant Total RNA Extraction Kit (product number DP452, purchased from Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.), and reverse transcription was carried out through the FastKing One - Step Genomic DNA Removal and cDNA First - Strand Synthesis Premix Kit (product number KR118, purchased from Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.). Finally, the expression levels of stress - related genes such as VvRD22, VvDREB2A, VvRD29A, VvP5CS, VvCAT1, and VvSOD were detected by the SuperReal PreMix Plus (SYBR Green) Kit (product number FP205, purchased from Tiangen Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.) ( Figure 13 ), and the specific method was referred to the instruction manual.
[0136] 2 Results and analysis:
[0137] 2.1 Amplification of the target gene fragment and construction of the over - expression vector:
[0138] Using grape leaf cDNA as a template, with primers as shown in Table 1, the full-length gene was amplified using the Green Taq Mix premix (Novizan), and the fragment size was detected by agarose gel electrophoresis, and the sequence was determined by sequencing ( Figure 2 ). The positive plasmid was ligated to the pCAMBIA2300-EGFP vector by double digestion, and amplified by colony PCR ( Figure 2 ), and the sequencing was successful.
[0139] 2.2 Subcellular localization prediction:
[0140] Analysis by transient injection in tobacco found that VvYUC10 is a cell membrane-localized protein that functions mainly in the cell membrane ( Figure 3 ).
[0141] 2.3 Identification of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana and callus:
[0142] The 35s:VvYUC10 overexpression vector constructed in 2.1 was used to infect Arabidopsis thaliana and callus. After resistance screening and growth for a period of time, positive verification was carried out. All 10 transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants were positive (WT is wild-type Arabidopsis thaliana) ( Figure 4 ), and all 5 cell clusters were positive (WT is untransformed callus) ( Figure 5 ). Subsequently, the bands with brighter intensity were selected to detect the expression level of VvYUC10 in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana and grape callus. The results showed that the expression level of VvYUC10 in overexpressing Arabidopsis thaliana and grape callus was significantly increased compared with the control ( Figure 6 ), and the auxin content increased.
[0143] 2.4 Determination of antioxidant enzyme activities in wild-type and transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana and callus under salt stress:
[0144] The antioxidant enzyme activities of the overexpressed 35S:VvYUC10 of the target gene and the control 35S:00 plants were detected. The results found that ( Figure 7 and Figure 11 ), after overexpression, the antioxidant enzyme (SOD, CAT) activities in Arabidopsis thaliana and grape callus under salt stress were significantly enhanced.
[0145] 2.5 Determination of membrane lipid peroxidation products and osmotic regulators in wild-type and transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana and callus under salt stress:
[0146] The membrane lipid peroxidation products and osmotic regulators of the overexpressed 35S: VvYUC10 of the target gene and the control 35S:00 plants were detected. The results found that ( Figure 8 and Figure 12), After overexpression in Arabidopsis thaliana and grape callus under salt stress, the antioxidant (AsA and GSH), Pro content in Arabidopsis thaliana and grape callus under salt stress was significantly enhanced, and the content of MDA was reduced.
[0147] 2.6 After salt stress treatment, the target gene will cause the expression levels of VvYUC10 and stress-related genes such as AtRD22, AtDREB2A, AtRD29A, AtP5CS1, AtCAT2, and AtSOD1 related to salt tolerance to increase in overexpressed Arabidopsis thaliana and grape callus ( Figure 9 and Figure 13 ).
[0148] In summary, after overexpressing VvYUC10 under salt stress, the auxin content, antioxidant enzyme activity, and osmotic adjustment substance content in transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana and callus increased, and the expression levels of antioxidant enzyme genes and salt tolerance-related stress genes were all up-regulated. Therefore, it is proved that the above genes positively regulate grape salt tolerance by regulating auxin content and scavenging excessive reactive oxygen species.
