摘要:

目的 PMEI(pectin methylesterase inhibitor)是控制细胞壁结构与特性的重要组成部分,在植物逆境胁迫响应方面发挥重要作用。探究谷子PMEI基因在非生物胁迫下的响应机制,为谷子的抗逆机理研究提供理论基础。 方法 运用生物信息学方法对谷子PMEI基因家族进行鉴定,采用实时荧光定量PCR技术对其家族成员在低温、干旱、MeJA、ABA胁迫下的表达模式进行分析。 结果 谷子基因组中共鉴定出68个SiPMEI基因家族成员,不均匀地分布在9条染色体上,大多数成员定位于细胞壁或叶绿体上。SiPMEI家族成员主要有2种结构域,PMEI结构域和pectinesteras+PMEI结构域,含有同一结构域的成员间理化性质、亚细胞定位和基因结构均较相似。启动子顺式作用元件分析表明SiPMEI基因家族成员含有多种非生物胁迫和激素响应元件。本研究选择了8个含有2种以上胁迫响应元件且含数量较多的SiPMEI家族成员进行实时荧光定量表达分析。结果表明,SiPMEI在谷子的根、茎、叶和穗中差异表达;非生物胁迫(低温、干旱)和激素胁迫(MeJA、ABA)处理下,SiPMEI基因的表达量在0‒24 h内整体呈现上升趋势,含PMEI结构域且定位于细胞壁上的成员SiPMEI30SiPMEI32SiPMEI36SiPMEI63在胁迫下响应的最高表达量集中于8‒24 h。亚细胞定位于叶绿体上的成员SiPMEI22SiPMEI31SiPMEI38SiPMEI47最高表达量分布较为分散,且上调位点较多。 结论 SiPMEI在低温、ABA和MeJA的胁迫下均具有正向响应,并在干旱和MeJA胁迫下具有类似的表达趋势。这些差异表达表明SiPMEI可能通过不同的分子机制响应非生物胁迫。

Abstract:

Objective PMEI (pectin methylesterase inhibitor) is a key component regulating the structure and properties of the cell wall, playing a significant role in plant stress response mechanisms. Therefore, studying the response mechanism of PMEI gene in foxtail millet under abiotic stress may provide a theoretical basis for the mechanism of resistance to stress in millet. Method Bioinformatics was used to identify PMEI gene family in foxtail millet, and quantitative real-time PCR was employed to analyze the expression patterns of family members under low temperature, drought, MeJA and ABA stress. Result A total of 68 SiPMEI gene family members were identified in the foxtail millet (Setaria italica) genome, unevenly distributed on nine chromosomes, and most of them were localized to the cell wall or chloroplasts. There were two main domains of SiPMEI family members, PMEI domain and pectinesteras + PMEI domain, as well as similar physicochemical properties, subcellular localization and gene structure of the family members containing the same domain. Promoter cis-acting element analysis suggested that the SiPMEI gene family members contained multiple abiotic stress and hormone responsive elements. In this study, eight SiPMEI family members containing more than two stress response elements were selected for quantitative real-time expression analysis. The results showed that SiPMEI was differentially expressed in the root, stem, leaf and ear of the foxtail millet. Under abiotic stress (low temperature, drought), hormone stress (MeJA, ABA), the expression of SiPMEI gene tended to increase within 0-24 h, and the highest expressions of member SiPMEI30, SiPMEI32, SiPMEI36 and SiPMEI63 containing PMEI domain and localized on the cell wall responded to stress at 8‒24 h. The highest expression distribution of member SiPMEI22, SiPMEI31, SiPMEI38, and SiPMEI47 with subcellular localization on chloroplasts was more dispersed and had more upregulation sites. Conclusion SiPMEI has a positive response under low temperature, ABA and MeJA stresses, and has a similar expression trend under drought and MeJA stresses. These differential expressions suggest that SiPMEI may respond to abiotic stress through different molecular mechanisms.
