The complete coding regions of two α-gliadin, two γ-gliadin and two LMW-GS gene sequences, which designed as Gli-Mal, Gli-Ma2, Gli-Mrl, Gli-Mr2, Glu-LM1 and Glu-LM2, encoded the mature proteins with 307, 241, 348, 302, 474 and 377 amino acid residues, respectively. Gli-Mal and Gli-Ma2 were recognized as pseudogenes due to the in-frame stop codons. The amino acid sequences deduced from these gene sequences were characterized with the typical structure of α- or γ-gliadin or LMW- m type proteins with the exception of Gli-Ma2. Phylogenetic analysis showed Gli-Mal was closely related to those from T. aestivum, whereas Gli-Ma2 seemed to be more homologous with the gene sequences from Dasypyrum breviaristatum. Gli-Mrl was closely related to those from T. turgidum ssp. dicoccoides, while Gli-Mr2 was the nearest to those from T. aestivum. Glu-LM1 was closely related to those from Aegilops tauschii, whereas GIu-LM2 seemed to be more homologous with those from T. durum.展开更多

Four novel γ-gliadin genes （Gli-ngl to Gli-ng4） were cloned from wheat （Triticum aestivum） and Aegilops species. The novel γ-gliadins were much smaller in molecular size when compared to the typical γ-gliadins, which was caused by deletion of the non-repetitive domain, glutamine-rich region, 3＂ part of the repetitive domain, and 5＇ part of the C-terminal, possibly due to illegitimate recombination between the repetitive domain and the C-terminal. As a result, Gli-ngl and Gli-ng4 only contained two and three cysteine residues, respectively. Gli-ngl, as the representative of novel γ-gliadin genes, has been sub-cloned into an Escherichia coli expression system. SDS- PAGE indicated that the both cysteine residues of Gli-ngl could participate in the formation of intermolecular disulphide bonds in vitro. Successful cloning of Gli-ngl from seed cDNA of T. aestivum cv. Chinese Spring suggested that these novel γ-gliadin genes were normally transcribed during the development of seeds. Phylogenic analysis indicated that the four novel γ-gliadin genes had a closer relationship with those from the B （S） genome of wheat.展开更多
