摘要/Abstract

摘要： 逆境胁迫影响茶树生长发育及茶叶品质,ASR（abscisic acid, stress, ripening-induced）基因在植物抗逆响应中具有重要功能。本研究以龙井43品种茶树为材料,从中克隆了CsASR基因的全长cDNA序列、基因组序列及其启动子序列,分析了该基因的生物信息学特征及在组织间和不同胁迫处理下的表达模式。结果显示,CsASR的cDNA序列全长875βbp,含有546βbp的ORF序列,编码181个氨基酸,蛋白质分子量19.89βkD,理论等电点5.69;CsASR蛋白结构序列中74.5%的序列为无序结构,是一种无序蛋白;CsASR的C-端含有ABA/WDS功能结构域,主要定位于细胞质和细胞核中;茶树CsASR与海枣的ASR相似性最高,为87%,而在进化树中与枣的关系最近。CsASR基因含2个外显子,第1个外显子长363βbp,第2个外显子长183βbp,内含子较大为2β750βbp,内含子中含7种简单重复序列和2种DNA转座子序列。克隆获得起始密码子ATG上游2β554βbp的启动子区序列,该启动子上含有干旱、低温、高温以及ABA等相关的顺式作用元件。CsASR在根中的表达量最低;ABA抑制CsASR的表达,而干旱、NaCl和低温胁迫能够显著上调CsASR的表达。表明CsASR基因可能与茶树抗逆密切相关。

Abstract: Abiotic stress severely affects the growth and development of tea plant and the quality of tea. ASR (abscisic acid, stress, ripening) genes play crucial roles in the plant response to stresses. The full-length cDNA, genomic sequence and the promoter sequence of CsASR gene were cloned from tea cultivar Longjing 43 in this study, The bioinformatic and the expression analysis of CsASR in tissues under different stress treatments were performed. The results revealed that the full-length cDNA of CsASR was 875βbp, containing a 546βbp ORF encoding 181 amino acid. The predict protein molecular and theoretic isoelectric point of CsASR were 19.89βkD and 5.69. Most regions of the amino acid sequence (74.5%) were predicted as the non-ordered regions, indicating that CsASR is a disordered protein. C-terminal of CsASR contained an ABA/WDS functional domain which was primarily located in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus. The homologous alignment and phylogenetic tree analysis showed that CsASR had the highest similarity (87%) with Phoenix dactylifera, and had the closest genetic relationship with Ziziphus nummularia. The genomic sequence of CsASR gene was comprised by two exons with 363 bp and 183 bp in length, respectively, and had a 2 750 bp intron which contained seven simple repeats and two DNA transposons. The promoter sequence of CsASR was 2 554 bp in length and was predicted to contain several stress-responsive elements related to drought, cold, high temperature stresses and ABA-signaling. The expression analysis showed that CsASR had the lowest level in roots, and its expression was repressed by ABA treatment. While the drought, NaCl and cold stresses could significantly up-regulate the expression of CsASR. The results revealed that CsASR might be closely related to stress response in tea plant.
