摘要: 二氢黄酮醇4-还原酶(Dihydroflavonol 4-reductase,DFR)是花青素合成通路上的关键酶,其表达与花青素积累及花色呈现密切相关。为了探究DFR基因与多星韭(Allium wallichii)花色形成的关系,以紫花和白花多星韭为研究材料,利用RT-PCR技术克隆其DFR基因,并进行表达分析。结果克隆得到4条DFR等位基因,称作AwDFRs,包括紫花中的AwDFR-P1AwDFR-P2和白花中的AwDFR-W1AwDFR-W2AwDFRs基因的开放阅读框均为1155 bp,编码384个氨基酸。序列比对分析表明,AwDFRs蛋白含有完全相同的NADPH保守结构域和底物特异性结合结构域。系统进化树分析表明,AwDFRs蛋白与洋葱DFR亲缘关系最近。qRT-PCR结果显示,AwDFRs在花瓣中的表达量显著高于其他组织,且在粉色、紫色和深紫色多星韭花中,随着花瓣发育和着色过程,AwDFRs的表达量逐渐升高;而在白花多星韭的整个花发育阶段,AwDFRs几乎都不表达。以上结果表明,多星韭花色差异形成的原因可能与AwDFRs基因的差异表达有关。AwDFRs在多星韭花青素合成积累过程中可能扮演着重要角色。

Abstract: Dihydroflavonol 4-reductase (DFR) is a key enzyme in the anthocyanin synthesis pathway, and its expression is closely related to anthocyanin accumulation and flower colors. To explore the relationship between the DFR gene and flower colors in Allium wallichii, the purple and white flowers were used as materials, and DFR was cloned by RT-PCR and its expression pattern was analyzed. Four DFR allelic genes, called AwDFRs, were cloned, including two alleles AwDFR-P1 and AwDFR-P2 in the purple flowers, and two alleles AwDFR-W1 and AwDFR-W2 in the white flowers. Open reading frames (ORF) of all AwDFRs were 1155 bp, encoding 384 amino acids. Sequence alignment analysis revealed that the AwDFRs protein contained exactly the same NADPH conserved domains and substrate-specific binding domains. Phylogenetic tree analysis indicated that the AwDFRs were most closely related to onion DFR. The qRT-PCR results showed that expression of AwDFRs in petals was significantly higher than that in other tissues, and their expression increased with petal development and coloration in the pink, purple and deep purple flowers; However, AwDFRs were almost not expressed during the flower development stage in white flowers. The above results suggested that the different flower colors might be related to the differential expression of AwDFRs in A. wallichii. AwDFRs might play an important role in the anthocyanin synthesis and accumulation in A. wallichii.
