酚类化合物代谢中受UV-C辐照调控的转录因子的筛选(英文)

Screening for UV-C irradiation-enhanced transcription factors that regulate the metabolism of phenolic compounds in tomato fruit

SlPAL5基因是酚类化合物代谢的关键基因。UV-C辐照可以有效提高番茄果实中酚类化合物的含量。因此研究调控SlPAL5基因表达的转录因子,对于进一步阐明UV-C诱导番茄果实酚类化合物合成的调控机制具有重要意义。文中通过构建番茄酵母单杂交文库,利用酵母单杂交技术筛选调控酚类化合物合成关键基因SlPAL5表达的转录因子。通过测序和Blast同源性分析得到转录因子SlERF7,并证实SlERF7可以与SlPAL5的启动子相互作用。另外,UV-C辐照可以显著提高SlERF7的表达水平。结果表明受UV-C辐照诱导的SlERF7可能参与了SlPAL5的转录调控,为研究UV-C诱导番茄果实酚类化合物合成的调控机制提供了基础。

Solanum lycopersicum phenylalanine ammonia-lyase 5(SlPAL5) gene regulates the metabolism of phenolic compounds. The study of transcription factors that regulate the expression of SlPAL5 gene is of great significance to elucidate the regulatory mechanism underlying the biosynthesis of phenolic compounds in tomato fruit induced by UV-C irradiation. Here, yeast one-hybrid library of tomato fruit was constructed, and the yeast one-hybrid technology was used to screen the transcription factors that regulate the expression of SlPAL5, the key gene related to the synthesis of phenolic compounds in tomato fruit. As a result, a transcription factor, SlERF7, was obtained and sequenced, followed by the blast homology analysis. Further experiments confirmed that SlERF7 interacted with the promoter of SlPAL5 gene. In addition, UV-C irradiation significantly increased the expression level of SlERF7. These results indicate that SlERF7, which is regulated by UV-C irradiation, might be involved in regulating the transcription of SlPAL5, which provided foundations for further studying the regulation mechanism of the biosynthesis of phenolic compounds in tomato fruit induced by UV-C irradiation.
