[Method] With Capsicum annuum L as a material, the cDNA sequence of Capunl gene was obtained, with a total length of 1 457 bp, coding 440 amino acids. [Result] Phylogenetic analysis showed that Capunl was closest to Pun1 of C. chinense, with a genetic distance of 0.019 3. Plant expression vector pCAM-Punl-GFP was constructed and transformed into to- bacco, and it was found that the protein coded by fusion gene Punl::GFP was lo- cated on cell membrane. Prokaryotic expression vectors were constructed, and by SDS-PAGE and Western Blot detection, an induced protein with a molecular weight of 63 ku was obtained. It was found by real-time fluorescence quantitative expres- sion that Pun1 gene was expressed at the highest level 30 d after flowering, de- creased then, and could not be detected substantially 40 and 45 d after flowering. [Conclusion] This study provides information and reference for molecular regulation mechanism of Pun1 gene.展开更多
