چکیده

During ongoing proteomic analysis of the soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr) germplasm collection, PI 603408 was identified as a landrace whose seeds lack accumulation of one of the major seed storage glycinin protein subunits. Whole genomic resequencing was used to identify a two-base deletion affecting glycinin 5 The newly discovered deletion was confirmed to be causative through immunological, genetic, and proteomic analysis, and no significant differences in total seed protein content were found to be due to the glycinin 5 loss-of-function mutation per se In addition to focused studies on this one specific glycinin subunit-encoding gene, a total of 1,858,185 nucleotide variants were identified, of which 39,344 were predicted to affect protein coding regions. In order to semiautomate analysis of a large number of soybean gene variants, a new SIFT 4G (Sorting Intolerant From Tolerated 4 Genomes) database was designed to predict the impact of nonsynonymous single nucleotide soybean gene variants, potentially enabling more rapid analysis of soybean resequencing data in the future.

Inheritance and Organization of Glycinin Genes in Soybean.

Five genes (Gy1, through Gy5) encode most of the subunits that are assembled into glycinin, a predominant seed storage protein found in soybeans. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms are described that identify four of these five genes (Gy1/Gy2, Gy3, and Gy5). The fifth gene (Gy4) is characterized by two alleles, one of which (gy4) causes absence of the subunit. Genetic segregation studies...

Identification of glycinin and beta-conglycinin subunits that contribute to the increased protein content of high-protein soybean lines.

Seed protein concentration of commercial soybean cultivars calculated on a dry weight basis ranges from approximately 37 to 42% depending on genotype and location. A concerted research effort is ongoing to further increase protein concentration. Several soybean plant introductions (PI) are known to contain greater than 50% protein. These PIs are exploited by breeders to incorporate the high-pro...

Assessment of seed storage protein composition of six Iranian adopted soybean cultivars [Glycine max (L.) Merrill.]

Seed protein quality is an important topic in the production of soybean. The quality of soybean proteins is limited by anti-nutrient proteins and low levels of essential sulfur amino acids. In this study, protein content and solubility of six cultivars were evaluated and seed storage proteins were analyzed using SDS-PAGE and scanning densitometry. The results showed that seed storage protein ba...

Molecular characterization of an aberrant allele for the Gy3 glycinin gene: a chromosomal rearrangement.

The soybean variety Forrest contains an aberrant allele for the Gy3 glycinin gene. The aberrant allele is designated gy3 because mRNA for the G3 glycinin subunit is reduced to below detectable amounts in the seed. Molecular and genetic characterization of gy3 show it to be associated with a chromosomal rearrangement that causes the 5' halves and 3' halves of the gene to become separated from on...

Phosphate: the Silent Challenge

Phosphorus (P) is one of the most vital elements for all living organisms which acts as aconstituent of essential biomolecules such as nucleic acids, phospholipids, and phosphosugars,and as a major contributor to almost all metabolic reactions including photosynthesis,respiration, and energy delivery. It is one of the most needed nutrients for plant growth anddevelopment. Despite high levels of...
