摘要:

【目的】探究组蛋白乙酰化修饰在杨树茎生长发育中的分子机制。【方法】利用组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂曲古抑菌素A(trichostatin A, TSA)对84K杨树(Populus alba × P. glandulosa)进行不同时间处理,采用Western blot检测杨树茎中组蛋白乙酰化水平变化情况,然后用RNA-Seq技术对其茎中基因表达谱进行转录组分析,最后利用石蜡切片和扫描电镜观察木质部的表型变化。【结果】Western Blot 结果表明2 μmol/L TSA处理2 h能明显提高茎中组蛋白H3的乙酰化水平,随着TSA处理时间延长,组蛋白H3的乙酰化水平进一步升高。转录组结果显示,TSA处理2 h、12 h共得到5 625个差异基因表达,其中2 h上调基因2 158个,下调基因1 556个;12 h上调基因905个、下调基因1 006个。GO功能分析发现,差异上调基因主要富集在细胞壁组分,DNA结合转录因子活性;差异下调基因主要富集在光合作用、响应非生物刺激等词条;KEGG通路分析发现差异上调基因显著富集到木质素合成等通路。表型分析结果显示,相较于未处理组,TSA处理导致植株高度下降9.03%,但是茎直径和木质部厚度未见显著性差异。【结论】组蛋白H3乙酰化水平上升通过促进转录活性或细胞壁相关基因的表达来参与杨树茎的发育,从而影响植株的高度。

Abstract:

【Objective】To investigate the molecular mechanism of histone acetylation modification on the development of stem in poplar trees.【Method】In this study, we treated 84K poplar(Populus alba × P. glandulosa)with the histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin A(TSA)for different duration, and then detected the alteration of histone acetylation level using Western blot, analyzed the gene expressions using RNA-Seq technology, and observed the stem phenotype using paraffin section and scanning electron microscopy.【Result】Western blot results showed that histone H3 acetylation levels increased in the stems with 2 μmol/L TSA treatment for 2 h. The acetylation level of histone H3 further increased as the TSA treatment time prolonged. The transcriptome results show that TSA treatment at 2 h and 12 h led to a total of 5 625 differentially expressed genes, with 2 158 up-regulated genes and 1 556 down-regulated genes at 2 h; 905 up-regulated genes and 1 006 down-regulated genes at 12 h. GO functional analysis showed that differentially up-regulated genes were enriched on cell wall components and DNA-binding transcription factors; while differentially down-regulated genes were enriched on photosynthesis and response to abiotic stimulus. KEGG pathway analysis showed that the differentially up-regulated genes were significant enriched in the lignin synthesis pathway. Compared to untreated group, the plant height decreased by 9.03% in the TSA treatment group of poplar, but the diameter of stem and the thickness of xylem was not affected significantly.【Conclusion】The increasing of histone acetylation levels might participate in the development of stem in poplar tree by enhancing the expression of genes related to transcriptional activity or cell wall components, which affects plant height.
