番茄Slβ-Hex的分子特征及启动子sgRNA分析

Molecular characteristics and promoter analysis of Slβ-Hex gene in tomato

  • 摘要: 【目的】 利用CRISPR-Cas基因编辑系统可对其进行定点突变调控番茄果实软化,为利用CRISPR-Cas系统突变失活番茄细胞壁糖苷水解酶基因β-Hex,抑制N-糖蛋白的降解和游离N-聚糖的产生,降低细胞壁水解软化程度,调控番茄果实过度软化的深入研究奠定基础。 【方法】 利用生物在线工具,对Slβ-Hex多肽特性及保守结构域、基因组结构、数字表达谱、启动子顺式作用元件进行系统分析,根据CRISPR-Cas9靶点设计原则,设计筛选出适宜的sgRNAs,促进番茄基因编辑高效表达载体的构建。 【结果】 番茄Slβ-Hex基因位于番茄第1号染色体的互补链上,由2个外显子、1个内含子组成,编码575个氨基酸。Slβ-Hex主要在番茄的果实中表达,尤其在果皮中表达量较高。该启动子的正链分布7条sgRNA,负链分布20条sgRNA,其中的10条sgRNA含有16个顺式作用元件。 【结论】 通过选用高特异性sgRNA进行基因编辑,使其所含的顺式元件序列突变,抑制改变Slβ-Hex的表达。

     

    Abstract: 【Objective】 Playing an important role in fruit ripening and softening, In order to inactivate the tomato cell wall glycoside hydrolase gene β-Hex by mutation of CRISPR-Cas system and inhibit the degradation of n-glycoprotein and the production of free n-glycan, to reduce the degree of hydrolytic softening of cell wall and regulate the excessive softening of tomato fruit lay the foundation for further research.CRISPR-Cas gene editing system will be used to regulate tomato fruit softening by site-specific mutation. 【Methods】 The characteristics, conserved domain, genome structure, digital expression profile and promoter cis-acting elements of Slβ-Hex polypeptide were systematically analyzed using biological online tools, and suitable sgRNAs were designed and screened according to CRISPR-Cas9 target design principles to promote the construction of tomato gene editing efficient expression vector. 【Results】 Tomato SLβhex gene was located on the complementary chain of tomato chromosome 1, and composed of 2 exons and 1 intron, encoding 575 amino acids. Transcriptome analysis of Slβ-Hex based on RNA-seq showed that Slβ-Hex was mainly expressed in the fruit of tomato, especially in the peel. The positive chain of the promoter distributed 7 Sgrnas, negative chain distributed 20 Sgrnas, of which 10 Sgrnas contained 16 cis-acting elements. 【Conclusion】 High-specific sgRNA is selected for gene editing to mutate the cis-element sequence and inhibit the expression of Slβ-Hex.
