Previous reports highlighted an important role of MIPS family genes in abiotic stresses particularly under salt stress tolerance in several plant species; however, little is known about the cellular and physiological functions of MIPS2 genes under abiotic conditions. In this study, a novel salt stress responsive gene designated Gs MIPS2 from wild soybean Glycine soja 07256 was functionally characterized contained an open reading frame(ORF) of 1 533 bp coding a peptide sequence of 510 amino acids along with mass of 56 445 ku. Multiple sequence alignment analysis revealed its 92%-99% similarity with other MIPS family members in legume proteins. Quantitative real-time PCR results demonstrated that Gs MIPS2 was induced by salt stress and expressed in roots of soybean. The positive function of Gs MIPS2 under salt response at different growth stages of transgenic Arabidopsis was also elucidated. The results showed that Gs MIPS2 transgenic lines displayed increased tolerance as compared to WT and atmips2 mutant lines under salt stress. Furthermore, the expression levels of some salt stress responsive marker genes, including KIN1, RD29 A, RD29 B, P5 Cs and COR47 were significantly up-regulated in Gs MIPS2 overexpression lines than wild type and atmips2 mutant. Collectively, these results suggested that Gs MIPS2 gene was a positive regulator of plant tolerance to salt stress. This was the first report to demonstrate that overexpression of Gs MIPS2 gene from wild soybean improved salt tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis.展开更多

Under the condition of drought (30% PEG), salinity (200 mmol· L^-1 NaCl) and low temperature (4℃), total RNA was extracted from the leaf and the first strand of cDNA was synthesized with reverse transcription. S-adenosylmethionine synthetase gene (SAMS gene) was amplified by PCR with the first strand cDNA as template and a pair of primers which was based on constructed ESTs sequence. Full-length SAMS gene sequence was obtained by BLAST comparison. According to the analysis, completed sequence of SAMS gene was integrality. The sequence of the SAMS gene was 1 185 bp in length with an opening reading frame (ORF) encoding 394 amino acids. The cDNA sequence showed a significant homology to the SAM genes from Phaseolus lunatus (89%), Medicago sativa (85%). A prokaryotic expression vectors based on pET-32b had been constructed and prokaryotic expression was analyzed in order to lay a strong foundation for resist adversity function analysis through situation of genic expression analysis.展开更多
