摘要:

糖外排转运蛋白(sugars will eventually be exported transporter, SWEET)和蔗糖转运蛋白(sucrose transporter, SUT)是植物的2种糖转运蛋白。为分析TaSWEETTaSUT基因在小麦基因组中的进化特征、功能及其对外源糖的响应,本研究对小麦TaSWEETTaSUT家族成员进行了全基因组鉴定,并对其系统发育关系、基因结构、启动子顺式作用元件和表达特性进行了分析。结果表明,小麦中包含101个TaSWEET基因和16个TaSUT基因,二者均分为4个亚家族。基因结构显示,TaSWEETTaSUT家族成员的外显子和内含子数量存在差异,数量为4~18个。保守基序分析显示,TaSWEET家族和TaSUT家族成员中存在20个基序,各亚家族内的基序结构相似。染色体分布模式和同源性分析表明,TaSWEET家族和TaSUT家族成员在3个亚基因组上数量分布均匀,全基因组片段重复和串联重复促进了小麦TaSWEET扩增。亚细胞定位预测显示,多数TaSWEET家族成员和全部TaSUT家族成员定位于质膜上,TaSWEET家族成员含4~7个跨膜螺旋结构,TaSUT家族成员含8~12个跨膜螺旋结构。启动子元件分析表明,TaSWEETTaSUT家族成员的启动子区富含大量生长发育类、激素响应类和非生物胁迫类顺式作用元件。小麦基因表达模式分析显示,大部分TaSWEETTaSUT家族成员在小麦叶片中表达量较低,在叶、芽、根、穗和籽粒中分别有28、25、33、39、21个成员高表达。通过qRT-PCR检测发现,经外源糖处理后,TaSWEETTaSUT家族基因在根中表达量全部下调,在叶中有3个基因在果糖处理下表达量上调,1个基因在3种外源糖处理表达量均上调。上述结果为深入研究TaSWEETTaSUT基因在调控小麦生长发育与在外源糖处理下的响应提供了理论依据。

Abstract:

SWEETs(sugars will eventually be exported transporter) and SUTs(sucrose transporters) are two sugar transporters in plants that play important roles in carbohydrate transport. In order to analyze the evolutionary characteristics, functions and responses of TaSWEET and TaSUT genes in the wheat genome and their response to exogenous sugars, this study conducted genome-wide identification of wheat TaSWEET and TaSUT, and analyzed their phylogenetic relationships, gene structure, promoter sequence elements, and expression characteristics. 101 TaSWEET genes and 16 TaSUT genes had been identified in wheat genome, both of which could be divided into four subfamilies. The genetic structure exhibited differences in the number of exons and introns among the TaSWEET family and TaSUT family members,ranging from 4 to 18. Conservative motif analysis displayed that the TaSWEET family and TaSUT family members had 20 motifs, the motif structures within each subfamily were similar. Chromosome distribution pattern and homology analysis indicated that TaSWEET family and TaSUT family members were evenly distributed in the three subgenomes, and the segmental and tandem repeats of the whole genome promoted the amplification of TaSWEET genes. Subcellular localization prediction proved that most of the TaSWEET and all TaSUT members were located in the plasma membrane. TaSWEET contained 4-7 transmembrane helical structures, while TaSUT contained 8-12. The analysis of promoter elements forecasted that the TaSWEET and TaSUT families were rich in growth and development, hormone response and abiotic stress cis-acting elements. Wheat gene expression pattern analysis demonstrated that most of the TaSWEET and TaSUT family members expressed at low levels in wheat leaves, while 28, 25, 33, 39 and 21 members expressed at high levels in leaf, shoot, root, spike and grain, respectively. Through qRT-PCR detection, it was found that the expression levels of TaSWEET and TaSUT family genes were all down-regulated in roots after exogenous sugar treatment, while 3 genes were up-regulated in leaves under fructose treatment, and one gene was up-regulated under all three suger treatments. The above results provide a theoretical basis for further studying the regulation of growth and development of TaSWEET and TaSUT genes in wheat and their response to exogenous sugar treatment.
