Full-length Cloning and Protein Expression Analysis of Glycosyltransferases Gene SaUGT1/SaUGT2 in Sorbus aucuparia
To obtain the glycosyltransferase gene involved in modification reaction of phytoalexin from
Sorbus pohuashanensis
suspension cell
and conduct sequence analysis and prokaryotic expression analysis.
Method:
2
Based on the transcriptome data
specific primers were designed to obtain 2 cDNA sequences of
SaUGTs
genes
construct prokaryotic expression vector HIS-MBP-pET28a-SaUGTs and induce the expression of recombinant SaUGTs protein.
Result:
2
SaUGT
1 and
SaUGT
2 sequences were cloned and obtained from glycosyltransferases
then bioinformatic analysis of the sequence and prokaryotic expression analysis were conducted.
SaUGT
1gene contained 1 458bp open reading frame (ORF)
encoding a polypeptide of 485 amino acids
with a relativemolecular weight of 54.27kDa and theoretical isoelectric point (pI) of 5.50.
SaUGT
2gene contained 1 431bp ORF
encoding a polypeptide of 476 amino acids
with a relativemolecular weight of 53.49kDa and theoretical pI of 5.63. Bioinformatics analysis indicated that SaUGT1 and SaUGT2 protein had no signal peptide
and the conserved domains of glycosyltransferase family were detected. Phylogenetic results showed that SaUGT1 and SaUGT2 proteins had the closest relationship with the UGT85 family of
A
.
thaliana
. Differential expression analysis revealed that the relative expression levels of
SaUGT
1 and
SaUGT
2 were increased significantly after being induced by yeast extract (YE)
with the highest expression level found at 24h and 12h. The recombinant SaUGT1 and SaUGT2 proteins were successfully expressed in
Escherichia coli
DE3 cells and finally
the recombinant SaUGT1 and SaUGT2 proteins were purified through Ni
2+
affinity chromatography.
Conclusion:
2
The glycosyltransferase gene was cloned from the
S
.
aucuparia
for the first time
and the prokaryotic expression vector was successfully constructed
laying foundation for further study of the function of this gene.
