Jinan 177 （JN177） and Agropyron elongatum were characterized via genomic PCR. Four clones were pseudogenes because they contained an internal stop codon. The remaining nine variants contained intact open reading frames （ORFs）. Sequence alignment indicates that the proteins deduced from the nine ORFs have similar primary structure with LMW-GS cloned from its parents previously. However, they have some unique modifications in the structures. For example, EU292737 contains not only an extra Cys residue in the C-terminal domain but also a long repetitive domain. Both EU 159511 and EU292738 start their first Cys residue in the N-terminal repetitive domain, but not in the N-conserved domain traditionally. These structural alterations may have positive contributions to wheat flour quality. The results of phylogeny showed that most LMW-GS variances from 11-12 were homologous to those from parent JN177 and other wheat lines. The reason for quick evolution of LMW-GS in 11-12 was discussed.展开更多

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

More and more proves support that HMW-GS- 1Bx 14 and - 1Bx 15 subunits are strongly positively associated with good bread-making and excellent noodle-making quality. The two subunits are encoded by two genes, Glu-1Bx14 and Glu-1Bx15, which are tightly linked and located on the 1BL. Protein assay by SDS-PAGE indicated that the expression of Glu-1Bx14 gene was always much stronger than that of Glu-1By15 in the same variety. But, variation of expression level for Glu-1By15 gene existed among varieties, such as in Xiaoyan 54, Xiaoyan 6, Yanzhan 1 and Shanyou 225. We also investigated the transcription difference of Glu-1By14 and Glu-1By15 genes in Xiaoyan 54 and Shanyou 225 by semi-quantitative RT-PCR method. The Glu-1By14 always transcripts much more than the Glu-1By15. This was basically consistent with the translation difference between the two genes. Promoters of 1Bx14, 1By15, 1By8, 1Dx2 and 1Dy12 were cloned from Xiaoyan 54, Chinese Spring and Aegilops tauschii. Sequence analysis indicated that the HMW-GS genes had high homology at their promoter regions. However, significant difference existed between sequence of 1Bx14 promoter and those of other HMW-GS genes. The transient expression experiment showed that the promoter of 1By15 has lower activity than that of 1Bx14, which was consistent with their transcription level of the two genes in varieties. In addition, transient expression of the gus driven by the promoter （P2） of HMW-GS 1Dx2 gene was higher than by other HMW-GS promoters. Therefore, we constructed 1By15 gene expression vector driven by the 1Dx2 promoter, and transformed the 1By15 gene into wheat commercial variety, Jimai 20 by pollen tube method. Of 45 independent transgenic lines identified by PCR, 3 were confirmed to contain the HMW-GS 1By15 gene via Southern hybridization. The delivered 1By15 gene expressed the expected HMW-GS protein in the seeds of transgenic plants.展开更多
In the present study, one unique low-molecular-weight glutenin subunit （LMW-GS） gene. LMWXY22-2 （GenBank no.

LMWXY22-2 （GenBank no. FJ028810）, was isolated from wheat cultivar Xiaoyan 22 （Triticum aestivum L.） by a pair of genomic specific PCR primers for 1B chromosome. Sequence analysis revealed that LMWXY22-2 was composed of 1 364 bp nucleotides, including a 317 bp promotion region and a 1 047 bp coding region which could be translated into a mature protein of 349 amino acids. In spite of a few minor mutations, the sequence of 5＇ untranslated region （UTR）, the coding region, the deduced N- and Cterminus comparisons indicated that LMWXY22-2 belonged to the reported subunits of LMW-m type and type lII group 5, respectively. Inner gene markers for 1D chromosome together with the phylogenetic analysis revealed that this gene was classified into Glu-D3, which was not in agreement with the I B locus-specific primers for LMW genes completely.展开更多
