The localization of APX1 protein in the cells was determined by detecting the distribution of the fusion protein in tobacco epidermal cells. The results showed APX1 protein was mainly distributed in the cytoplasm of the plant.展开更多

DCAF (DDB1-CUL4 Associated Factor)是以CUL4 (CULLIN4)蛋白为骨架的E3泛素-蛋白连接酶复合体,这类复合体通过一个共同的衔接蛋白DDB1 (UV-damaged DNA binding protein 1)连接不同的底物识别亚基DCAF,介导各自特定的蛋白底物的降解,...DCAF (DDB1-CUL4 Associated Factor)是以CUL4 (CULLIN4)蛋白为骨架的E3泛素-蛋白连接酶复合体,这类复合体通过一个共同的衔接蛋白DDB1 (UV-damaged DNA binding protein 1)连接不同的底物识别亚基DCAF,介导各自特定的蛋白底物的降解,从而参与调控了多种生物学过程。为分析DCAF基因在白花虎眼万年青叶上珠芽、叶片和鳞茎等器官的功能和作用,本研究首次从百合科植物白花虎眼万年青叶上珠芽中分离出DCAF基因家族重要成员,进行氨基酸保守序列比对及系统进化分析后,将其命名为OtDCAF8基因;将其置于UBI启动子下在烟草中超量表达,转基因烟草的叶片形状、叶脉等发生了明显的改变。结果表明,OtDCAF8基因对植物干细胞及器官再生发育具有明显调控作用,可能在白花虎眼万年青的珠芽和叶片等器官发育过程中发挥着重要作用。本研究为深入探讨白花虎眼万年青珠芽等器官发育的分子机制和DCAF基因的功能提供了参考和依据,为百合等花卉的分子育种提供了有价值的重要功能基因。展开更多
