目的 获得刺五加法尼基焦磷酸合酶(FPS)、鲨烯合酶(SS)、鲨烯环氧酶(SE)基因启动子的CpG岛分布情况和功能活性。方法 针对已克隆的FPS、SS、SE基因启动子序列,使用EMBOSS和Li Lab进行CpG岛预测,同时利用GUS基因作为报告基因,pCAMBIA1301质粒作为表达载体,利用根癌农杆菌转化拟南芥进行功能验证。结果 发现刺五加FPS、SS启动子含有2个CpG岛,长度分别是520、218 bp和108、103 bp,SE启动子含有3个CpG岛,长度为290、119、149 bp。FPS、SS、SE基因启动子均具有启动活性,但强度不一,SS启动子活性最强。结论 研究首次获得刺五加FPS、SS、SE基因启动子区域的CpG岛分布情况,以及其功能活性,为后续进一步FPS、SS、SE甲基化分析及其在刺五加中的表达调控研究奠定了基础。

[Abstract]
Objective To obtain the distribution and functional activity of CpG islands in promoters of FPS, SS, and SE from Eleutherococcus Senticosus. Methods Based on the promoter sequence of FPS, SS and SE, CpG islands were predicted by using EMBOSS and Li Lab. The functional verification of transformed Arabidopsis thaliana was mediated by Agrobacterium tumefaciens by using GUS and pCAMBIA1301 plasmid as the reporter gene and expression vector respectively. Results Two CpG islands were found in FPS and SS promoter with the lengths of 520 bp, 218 bp and 108 bp, 103 bp, and three CpG islands in SE promoter in 290 bp, 119 bp and 149bp. The promoters of FPS, SS and SE all had promoter activities at different level, in which SS promoter was the highest one. Conclusion The functional verification and distributions of CpG islands in the promoters area of FPS, SS, and SE were reported in this research at first time, which established the foundation for the methylation analysis of FPS, SS, and SE and the further studying of the mechanism expression regulation in E. Senticosus.
