Construction of yeast one-hybrid library and screening of transcription factors regulating FPS expression in Ganoderma lucidum

目的筛选赤芝三萜合成途径中法尼基焦磷酸合酶(farnesyl diphosphate synthase,FPS)基因的上游调控转录因子。方法首先克隆了FPS基因启动子,并连接至pAbAi质粒构建诱饵载体pAbAi-FPS。将pAbAi-FPS转化Y1H酵母感受态细胞构建诱饵菌。采用SMART技术构建赤芝酵母单杂交cDNA文库,再将纯化的双链cDNA、pGADT7-Rec共转化诱饵菌株,筛选FPS上游的转录调控因子。结果构建了含pAbAi-FPS的诱饵载体并筛选出诱饵菌株,构建了cDNA文库并转化诱饵菌株,筛选出阳性克隆37个,得到作用FPS基因上游的转录调控因子18个,包括转录因子3个、核糖体蛋白5个及其他家族蛋白10个。结论筛选出转录因子GISNF2、GlMHR和GlZn2Cys6为调控FPS表达的候选基因,为深入研究FPS基因的表达调控机制奠定了研究基础。

Objective To screen the upstream regulatory transcription factors of farnesyl diphosphate synthase(FPS) in the triterpenoid synthesis pathway in Ganoderma lucidum. Methods In this study, the FPS promoter was cloned and connected to the pAbAi plasmid to construct bait vector pAbAi-FPS, which was transformed into Y1H yeast competent cells to construct bait yeast. The yeast one-hybrid cDNA library was constructed by using SMART technology, then the purified ds-cDNA and p GADT7-Rec were co-transformed into bait yeast strain to screen the upstream transcriptional regulatory factors of PFS. Results The bait vector containing pAbAi-FPS was constructed and the bait strain was screened, the cDNA library was constructed and transformed to the bait strain. A total of 37 positive clones were screened and sequenced. The sequences of conserved domain were predicted and performed blast search against the whole-genome database to identify their function. As a result, a total of 18 upstream regulatory factors were screened out including three transcription factors, five ribosomal proteins, and 10 other transcription regulators. Conclusion The results indicated that transcription factors GlSNF2, GlMHR, and GlZn2Cys6 were candidate genes for regulating the expression of FPS, and this study offered data for further study on the regulation mechanism of FPS expression.
