Abstract:

SKIP (SKI-interacting protein) plays an important role in plant growth, development and stress responses. SKIP gene from Brassica oleracea var. italic was isolated and its sequence was analyzed by using bioinformatic tools. Besides, its expression patterns under biotic stresses (Hyaloperonospora parasitica and Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris) and abiotic stresses (NaCl and PEG6000) were obtained by quantitative real-time PCR. The results indicated that broccoli SKIP was 1 836 bp in length with no intron identified. BoiSKIP encoded 611 amino acids and contained one SNW/SKI domain, which was located at 188-347 of the deduced protein sequences. The molecular weight and theoretical isoelectric point were 69.22 ku and 9.15, respectively, with a grand average of hydropathy index of -1.12, and BoiSKIP was identified as a hydrophilic protein. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that SKIPs from Brassica plants were grouped to the same clade, with a support rate of 100%. The closest relationship was found between BoiSKIP and cabbage SKIP, and they were gathered in the same branch. Expression analysis results indicated that BoiSKIP was induced by both NaCl and PEG6000, and the highest expression levels were observed at 24 h and 12 h, respectively. BoiSKIP was also induced by both H. parasitica and X. campestris pv. campestris, and the highest expression levels were found at 24 h and 72 h, respectively. Isolation and expression analysis of broccoli SKIP gene provided an insight into future study about its function on stress resistance responses.
