The characterization of cDNA clones coding for wheat storage proteins.

چکیده
Poly(A)+ RNA isolated from the developing wheat endosperm var. Chinese Spring, has been used as template for the construction of a cDNA library. Within the library, clones have been identified by in vitro translation of hybrid-selected mRNA which encode alpha/beta gliadin related sequences and gamma-gliadin related sequences. The DNA sequence of one such clone has been determined and it shows homology with that of a clone encoding a barley storage protein, B-hordein. The sequence includes a tandem DNA repeat which is discussed in relation to the generation of diversity within the gliadins.

Cloning and Characterization of cbhII Gene fromTrichoderma parceramosum and Its Expressionin Pichia pastoris
The genomic and cDNA clones encoding cellobiohydrolase II (CBHII) have been isolated and sequenced from a native Iranian isolate of Trichoderma parceramosum, a high cellulolytic enzymes producer isolate. This represents the first report of cbhII gene from this organism. Comparison of genomic and cDNA sequences indicates this gene contains three short introns and also an open reading frame codin...
متن کاملCloning and molecular characterization of TaERF6, a gene encoding a bread wheat ethylene response factor
Ethylene response factor proteins are important for regulating gene expression under different stresses. Different isoforms for ERF have previously isolated from bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and related genera and called from TaERF1 to TaERF5. We isolated, cloned and molecular characterized a novel one based on TdERF1, an isoform in durum wheat (Tri...
متن کاملCharacterization of cDNA clones selected by the GeneMark analysis from size-fractionated cDNA libraries from human brain.
We have conducted a sequencing project of human cDNAs which encode large proteins in brain. For selection of cDNA clones to be sequenced in this project, cDNA clones have been experimentally examined by in vitro transcription/translation prior to sequencing. In this study, we tested an alternative approach for picking up cDNA clones having a high probability of carrying protein coding region. T...
متن کاملGrouping of bread wheat cultivars by seed storage proteins. Sonia Kahrizi1, Mohammad Sedghi2* and Omid Sofalian2
To determine seed storage protein banding patterns in some bread wheat cultivars and the similarity of banding patterns among different cultivars, an experiment based on seed storage protein electrophoresis (albumin and globulin) was performed. Water and salt soluble proteins were extracted in sixteen wheat cultivars using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and banding pattern was obtained. Stu...
متن کاملCharacterization and expression of a cDNA encoding a seed-specific metallothionein in maize.
Developing embryos of many higher plants undergo a maturation process in which a variety of storage proteins and putative dessication protectants are synthesized and stored. One of the proteins found to accumulate in maturing wheat embryos i s a Zn2+-associated class I1 metallothionein called E, (for early Cys) (Lane et al., 1987). Like many other maturation proteins, the promoter regions of wh...
