摘要: 【目的】克隆丝瓜铜/锌超氧化物歧化酶Cu/Zn-SOD基因家族,并分析其序列特征、表达情况及其在丝瓜褐变中的作用,为进一步揭示丝瓜褐变的发生机理提供科学依据,为丝瓜品种遗传改良奠定基础。【方法】通过转录组测序和RT-PCR方法获得丝瓜Cu/Zn-SOD基因家族的cDNA序列,采用生物信息学方法分析氨基酸序列,利用荧光定量PCR技术研究Cu/Zn-SOD基因家族在不同组织及褐变条件下的表达情况。采用氮蓝四唑(NBT)光还原法测定总超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性,采用福林-酚比色测定总酚含量。【结果】获得了3个丝瓜Cu/Zn-SOD基因家族cDNA序列,依次命名为LcCu/Zn-SOD1(GenBank登录号:KP178922)、LcCu/Zn-SOD2 (GenBank登录号:KX092445)和LcCu/Zn-SOD3(GenBank登录号:KX092446)。LcCu/Zn-SOD1全长758 bp,包含一个456 bp的开放读码框(ORF),编码152个氨基酸;LcCu/Zn-SOD2全长799 bp,ORF为471 bp,编码157个氨基酸;LcCu/Zn-SOD3全长1 011 bp,ORF为663 bp,编码221个氨基酸;编码的蛋白与甜瓜、南瓜、黄瓜同源蛋白的相似性均在90%以上。生物信息学分析表明3个基因编码的酶蛋白均无信号肽,无跨膜结构域,为亲水性稳定蛋白,Wolf Psort预测其亚细胞定位于细胞质。Cu/Zn-SOD基因家族在根中的表达量最高,在花中表达量最低。在丝瓜采后储藏期间,LcCu/Zn-SOD1和LcCu/Zn-SOD3在丝瓜储藏初期表达量较采后当时(0 d)上调,后期表达量受到抑制;在丝瓜鲜切条件下,3个基因表达量在鲜切后较采后当时(0 h)总体呈下降趋势。相关性分析显示,在采后储藏和鲜切条件下,LcCu/Zn-SOD1表达量均与SOD酶活性呈极显著性正相关,LcCu/Zn-SOD3表达量均与SOD酶活性呈显著性正相关,SOD酶活性在鲜切条件下与总酚含量呈显著负相关,LcCu/Zn-SOD1和LcCu/Zn-SOD3在调控SOD酶活性方面起作重要作用,LcCu/Zn-SOD1和LcCu/Zn-SOD3的表达影响了SOD酶活性,并影响了丝瓜褐变进程。【结论】从丝瓜果肉中获得Cu/Zn-SOD基因家族的3个,其中LcCu/Zn-SOD1和LcCu/Zn-SOD3在普通丝瓜果肉褐变过程中可能发挥着重要作用。

Abstract: 【Objective】The aim of this study was to clone the Cu/Zn-SOD gene family from Luffa cylindrical, investigate their sequence characteristics and analyze their expression in luffa browning. These findings will provide a scientific basis for further revealing the mechanism of luffa browning and lay a practical foundation for the genetic improvement of luffa. 【Method】 The cDNA sequences of Cu/Zn-SOD gene family were obtained by transcriptome sequencing and RT-PCR. The bioinformatics methods were used to analyze the putative amino acid sequence, and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) method was used to study the expression of Cu/Zn-SOD gene family in different tissues and browning conditions. The superoxide dismutase enzyme activity was measured by NBT deoxidization method. The total phenols was measured by folin-cioncaleuc method. 【Result】Three cDNAs of Cu/Zn-SOD were cloned from luffa fruit, in turn being named LcCu/Zn-SOD1, LcCu/Zn-SOD2 and LcCu/Zn-SOD3. The cDNA sequence of LcCu/Zn-SOD1 was 758 bp in length, containing a 456 bp opening reading frame(ORF), encoded a polypeptide of 152 amino acids. The cDNA sequence of LcCu/Zn-SOD2 was 799 bp in length, containing a 471 bp ORF, encoded a polypeptide of 157 amino acids. The cDNA sequence of LcCu/Zn-SOD3 was 1 011 bp in length, containing a 663 bp ORF, encoded a polypeptide of 221 amino acids. They shared over 90% identity with the homologous proteins from Cucumis melo, Cucurbita pepo and Cucumis sativus. The bioinformatics analysis showed that three proteins were hydrophilic protein without signal-peptide and transmembrane region, and the Wolf Psort protection indicated that they were located in the cytoplasm. The expression of LcCu/Zn-SODgene familywas the highest in root and the lowest in flower. During post-harvest storage, the expression of LcCu/Zn-SOD1 and LcCu/Zn-SOD3 was up-regulated in the early, and then decreased. The expression levels of three genes were overall down-regulated in fresh-cut luffa fruit. Correlation analysis showed that the expression level of LcCu/Zn-SOD1 showed a extremely significant positive correlation with SOD activity, and the expression level of LcCu/Zn-SOD3 showed a significant positive correlation with SOD activity during fresh-cut and post-harvest storage. SOD activity was significantly and negatively correlated with total phenols content during fresh-cut conditions. LcCu/Zn-SOD1 and LcCu/Zn-SOD3 play an important role in regulating the activity of SOD, and the expression of LcCu/Zn-SOD1 and LcCu/Zn-SOD3 may influence the activity of SOD and the process of luffa browning.【Conclusion】Three cDNAs of Cu/Zn-SOD were firstly obtained and characterized from luffa fruit, LcCu/Zn-SOD1 and LcCu/Zn-SOD3 may play an important role in luffa browning process.
