摘要:
磷酸果糖激酶(phosphofructokinase, PFK)是糖酵解途径中的关键调控酶, 作为该代谢过程的限速酶, 它主导着细胞内葡萄糖代谢的速率。与此同时, 己糖激酶不仅能够作为糖受体启动下游糖信号传导, 还可整合多种外界信号, 进而激活其他信号转导途径, 参与调节植物对外界环境变化的响应机制。系统分析玉米PFK家族成员在基因组上的分布、结构、进化以及表达特性, 对于深入研究该家族的生物学功能具有重要意义。本研究基于玉米B73 (RefGen_v4)基因组信息以及转录组数据等, 通过生物信息学手段对玉米B73自交系磷酸果糖激酶(PFK)家族成员进行全基因组鉴定并对其理化性质、系统发育关系、基因结构、启动子顺式作用元件以及表达特性进行了分析。结果表明, 玉米B73自交系共有20个PFK家族成员, 它们主要分为ATP依赖性的磷酸果糖激酶(phosphofructokinase, PFK)和焦磷酸盐依赖性的磷酸果糖激酶(phosphotransferase, PFP), 且不均匀的分布于各个染色体上。共线性分析表明, 玉米PFK基因与单子叶植物水稻(Oryza sativa)具有多对同源基因, 而与双子叶植物拟南芥(Arabidopsis thaliana)不存在直系同源基因。启动子顺式作用元件预测表明, PFK基因具有一些与生长发育和逆境响应的结合元件。转录组数据以及qRT-PCR表明, 各成员在组织表达与胁迫处理下存在不同的表达水平, 并且发现了多个响应非生物胁迫(盐胁迫、干旱胁迫、热胁迫和冷胁迫)与生物胁迫(玉蜀黍平脐蠕孢菌、玉蜀黍凸脐蠕孢菌和禾谷镰孢胁迫)的ZmPFK基因, 表明该家族成员在响应逆境胁迫中具有重要作用。将重组质粒ZmPFK10-pET32a转入大肠杆菌BL21中, 诱导表达后的重组菌株ZmPFK10-pET32a在700 mmol L-1 NaCl和45℃高温条件下的生长情况优于对照菌株。蛋白互作网络预测与富集分析发现, 与ZmPFK蛋白存在互作的3个核心蛋白均参与糖酵解活动。上述结果为PFK家族成员的生物学功能研究提供了理论基础。
