Comparative proteomics was performed using maize inbred line Zheng 58 and LN 287. MRDD pathogen was detected as rice black-streaked dwarf virus(RBSDV) by quantitative real time PCR(q RT-PCR) in Shandong Province, China. The modified trichloroacetic acid(TCA)/acetone method was used for soluble protein extraction from leaves. Two-dimensional electrophoresis(2-DE) analysis was performed on 24-cm long, p H 4-7 linear immobilized p H gradient(IPG) strips, and gels were stained with silver and coomassie brilliant blue. We identified 944 proteins expressed in RBSDV infected maize leaves by proteomics approaches. Among these, 44 protein spots that revealed a 1.5-fold difference in intensity were identified by mass spectrometry between mock-inoculated and RBSDV infected samples. Among these, 17 and 26 spots were up-regulated, and 27 and 18 spots were down-regulated in the virus infected samples of Zheng 58 and LN 287, respectively. Differential protein spots were analyzed by mass spectrometry identification, which could be divided into six categories. Furthermore, the expression of stress-related proteins was detected and confirmed by q RT-PCR. This study lays the foundation for further investigations, enabling the enhancement of MRDD resistance in maize.展开更多

文摘FARs为脂酰辅酶A还原酶,在植物生长发育和抵御非生物胁迫过程中起着重要作用。为进一步研究FARs在玉米中行使的生物学功能,在玉米中克隆1个脂酰辅酶A还原酶1基因(ZmFAR1),该基因全长1883 bp,开放阅读框长1491 bp,编码496个氨基酸,分子量为55.983 k Da。生物信息学分析表明,ZmFAR1蛋白的分子式为C_(2522)H_(4010)N^(690)O_(701)S_(24),为稳定的碱性亲水蛋白,存在59个磷酸化位点,未发现信号肽,存在跨膜结构域,最大可能定位于细胞质。氨基酸残基组成中主要以α螺旋和无规则卷曲为主。系统进化树分析表明,ZmFAR1蛋白与南荻和高粱的FAR蛋白相似度最高。利用实时荧光定量PCR技术对ZmFAR1在模拟盐、干旱两种非生物胁迫条件下对根、茎、叶3种组织的表达模式进行研究,结果表明,ZmFAR1呈现组织特异性表达,在叶中的表达量最高。盐和干旱处理下,ZmFAR1的表达量出现明显变化,推测ZmFAR1可能在不同程度参与了玉米对非生物胁迫的应答。
