摘要:

MicroRNAs(miRNAs)是一类对基因表达进行负调控的非编码小分子RNA。通过前期对丹参miRNAs的高通量测序得到了一个miR858成熟序列,命名为Sm-miR858。序列比对显示,Sm-miR858与其它植物中已鉴定的miR858序列高度保守;Small RNA Northern blotting结果显示Sm-miR858在丹参根、茎和叶组织中均有表达,叶中表达水平相对较高。为了探究Sm-miR858在丹参体内的功能,首先利用在线生物软件对Sm-miR858的靶标基因进行预测,psRNATarget分析结果显示,Sm-miR858的潜在靶标基因共有13个,其中一个靶标基因SmPAP1作为一个重要的转录因子参与丹参酚酸类活性物质的代谢调控。为了验证Sm-miR858对SmPAP1的靶向作用,采用Real-time quantitative PCR依次对烟草瞬时表达体系和丹参组织器官中的Sm-miR858与SmPAP1之间共表达相关性进行分析与实验验证。Real-time qPCR结果显示,在丹参组织中SmPAP1与Sm-miR858共表达水平存在显著的负相关性。进而分别构建Sm-miR858和SmPAP1过表达植物载体,并在烟草叶片中进行瞬时共表达研究。结果显示,与对照相比,Sm-miR858 过表达会导致SmPAP1的mRNA水平显著下降,说明在丹参体内Sm-miR858的确对SmPAP1基因表达进行靶向负调控。研究结果为阐明Sm-miR858在丹参体内酚酸类活性物质代谢途径调控作用奠定坚实的基础。

Abstract:

MicroRNAs(miRNAs) are a class of non-coding small RNAs that negatively regulate gene expression. Through high-throughput sequencing miRNAsof Salvia miltiorrhiza, a mature sequence miR858 named Sm-miR858 was obtained. The sequence alignment showed that the Sm-miR858 was highly conserved with the identified miR858 sequences in other plants, and the result of Small RNA northern blotting showed that the Sm-miR858 was expressed in the root, stem and leaf tissues of S. miltiorrhiza, especially relatively high in leaves. To explore the function of Sm-miR858 in S. miltiorrhiza, the Sm-miR858 was predicted first online using biological software. The result of psRNATarget analysis showed that there were 13 potential target genes of Sm-miR858. One was SmPAP1, an important transcription factor, participated in the metabolic regulation on phenolic acid active substances of S. miltiorrhiza. To further verify the targeting effect of Sm-miR858 on SmPAP1, the correlation of co-expression between Sm-miR858 and SmPAP1 was analyzed and verified by Real-time qPCR in the tobacco transient expression system and S. miltiorrhiza tissues and organs. The Real-time qPCR results showed that there was a significant negative correlation co-expression between SmPAP1 and Sm-miR858 in S. miltiorrhiza. Then the Sm-miR858 and SmPAP1 over-expressing plant vectors were constructed, and the transient co-expression of the Sm-miR858 and SmPAP1 was subsequently assayed in tobacco. The results showed that the sm-mir858 overexpression resulted in a significant decrease of the SmPAP1 mRNA expression level, compared with the control, and this indicated that sm-mir858 did actually target and negatively regulate the expression of SmPAP1 in S. miltiorrhiza. Above results laid a solid foundation for elucidating the role of sm-mir858 in the regulation phenolic acids biosynthesis in S. miltiorrhiza.
