The invention provides an application of an AC2
gene and the like in improving the expression quantity of GFP (
Green Fluorescent Protein) and / or inhibiting degradation of an mRNA (
Messenger Ribonucleic Acid) attenuated substrate taking the GFP as a
reporter gene. Researches find that AC2 has an mRNA decay inhibition function, can inhibit degradation of a nonsense-mediated mRNA decay substrate taking GFP as a
reporter gene and degradation of an endogenous nonsense-mediated mRNA decay substrate of
arabidopsis thaliana, can improve the expression quantity of mRNA of AT1G0106020, RPS6, SMG7, AT5G35490, AT5G64430, AT1G36730 and the like, can reduce the expression quantity of AT1G72450 and AT2G400, has interaction with Dcp1 and Dcp2, and can be used for inhibiting the expression quantity of mRNA of AT1G0106020, RPS6, SMG7, AT5G35490, AT5G6430, AT1G36730 and the like. The growth ability of the
yeast in an auxotroph culture medium can be improved, the expression level of Dcp1 can be reduced, and a
research result lays a foundation for clarification of AC2 functions.
