Pectin is a class of complex cell wall polysaccharides with multiple roles during cell development. Assigning specific functions to particular polysaccharides is in its infancy, in part, because of the limited number of mutants and transformants available with modified pectic polymers in their walls. Pectins are also important polymers with diverse applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries, which would benefit from technology for producing pectins with specific functional properties. In this report, we describe the generation of potato (Solanum tuberosum L. cv Posmo) tuber transformants producing pectic rhamnogalacturonan I (RGI) with a low level of arabinosylation. This was achieved by the expression of a Golgi membrane-anchored endo-␣-1,5-arabinanase. Sugar composition analysis of RGI isolated from transformed and wild-type tubers showed that the arabinose content was decreased by approximately 70% in transformed cell walls compared with wild type. The modification of the RGI was confirmed by immunolabeling with an antibody recognizing ␣-1,5-arabinan. This is the first time, to our knowledge, that the biosynthesis of a plant cell wall polysaccharide has been manipulated through the action of a glycosyl hydrolase targeted to the Golgi compartment. Current models of the plant cell wall present pec- suggests roles for pectic side-chains, for example, tins as complex matrix polysaccharides embedding arabinans, the polymer of interest to the present in- the load-bearing structures of the wall (cellulose mi- vestigation.

    Supplemental information to Mammadova-Bach et al., “Laminin α1 orchestrates VEGFA functions in the ecosystem of colorectal carcinogenesis” Supplemental material and methods Cloning of the villin-LMα1 vector The plasmid pBS-villin-promoter containing the 3.5 Kb of the murine villin promoter, the first non coding exon, 5.5 kb of the first intron and 15 nucleotides of the second villin exon, was generated by S. Robine (Institut Curie, Paris, France). The EcoRI site in the multi cloning site was destroyed by fill in ligation with T4 polymerase according to the manufacturer`s instructions (New England Biolabs, Ozyme, Saint Quentin en Yvelines, France). Site directed mutagenesis (GeneEditor in vitro Site-Directed Mutagenesis system, Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France) was then used to introduce a BsiWI site before the start codon of the villin coding sequence using the 5’ phosphorylated primer: 5’CCTTCTCCTCTAGGCTCGCGTACGATGACGTCGGACTTGCGG3’. A double strand annealed oligonucleotide, 5’GGCCGGACGCGTGAATTCGTCGACGC3’ and 5’GGCCGCGTCGACGAATTCACGC GTCC3’ containing restriction site for MluI, EcoRI and SalI were inserted in the NotI site (present in the multi cloning site), generating the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. The SV40 polyA region of the pEGFP plasmid (Clontech, Ozyme, Saint Quentin Yvelines, France) was amplified by PCR using primers 5’GGCGCCTCTAGATCATAATCAGCCATA3’ and 5’GGCGCCCTTAAGATACATTGATGAGTT3’ before subcloning into the pGEMTeasy vector (Promega, Charbonnières-les-Bains, France). After EcoRI digestion, the SV40 polyA fragment was purified with the NucleoSpin Extract II kit (Machery-Nagel, Hoerdt, France) and then subcloned into the EcoRI site of the plasmid pBS-villin-promoter-MES. Site directed mutagenesis was used to introduce a BsiWI site (5’ phosphorylated AGCGCAGGGAGCGGCGGCCGTACGATGCGCGGCAGCGGCACG3’) before the initiation codon and a MluI site (5’ phosphorylated 1 CCCGGGCCTGAGCCCTAAACGCGTGCCAGCCTCTGCCCTTGG3’) after the stop codon in the full length cDNA coding for the mouse LMα1 in the pCIS vector (kindly provided by P.

To get a good knowledge of the transcriptome dynamics and gene regulatory mechanism during the process of seed development and nutrients accumulation, we performed a comprehensive global transcriptome analysis using rice tartary buckwheat seeds at different development stages, namely pre-filling stage, filling stage, and mature stage. 24 819 expressed genes, including 108 specifically expressed genes, and 11 676 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified. qRT-PCR analysis was performed on 34 DEGs to validate the transcriptome data, and a good consistence was obtained. Based on their expression patterns, the identified DEGs were classified to eight clusters, and the enriched GO items in each cluster were analyzed. In addition, 633 DEGs related to plant hormones were identified. Furthermore, genes in the biosynthesis pathway of nutrients accumulation were analyzed, including 10, 20, and 23 DEGs corresponding to the biosynthesis of seed storage proteins, flavonoids, and starch, respectively. This is the first transcriptome analysis during seed development of tartary buckwheat. It would provide us a comprehensive understanding of the complex transcriptome dynamics during seed development and gene regulatory mechanism of nutrients accumulation. Seed is the primary storage organ in plants for storing nutrients such as starch, lipids, and proteins1.

(4 ―6 ―5, Utajima, Nishiyodogawa-ku, Osaka 555-8502, Japan) Abstract: Amylose is a functional biomaterial and is expected to be used for various industries. However at present, manufacturing of amylose is not done, since the purification of amylose from starch is very difficult. It has been known that amylose can be produced in vitro by using α-glucan phosphorylases. In order to ob- tain α-glucan phosphorylase suitable for manufacturing amylose, we isolated an α-glucan phosphorylase gene from Thermus aquaticus and expressed it in Escherichia coli. We also obtained thermostable α-glucan phos- phorylase by introducing amino acid replacement onto potato enzyme. α-Glucan phosphorylase is suitable for the synthesis of amylose; the only problem is that it requires an expensive substrate, glucose 1-phosphate. We have avoided this problem by using α-glucan phosphorylase either with sucrose phosphorylase or cellobiose phosphorylase, where inexpensive raw material, sucrose or cellobiose, can be used instead. In these combined enzymatic systems, α-glucan phosphorylase is a key enzyme. This paper summarizes our work on engineering practical α-glucan phosphorylase for industrial processes and its use in the enzymatic synthesis of essentially linear amylose and other glucose polymers. Key words: amylose, glucose polymer, α-glucan phosphorylase, glycogen debranching enzyme, protein engi- neering α-1,4 glucan is the major form of energy reserve from Enzymes for amylose synthesis.

  • REGULATION of MAIZE (Zea Mays L.) STARCH SYNTHASE Iia by PROTEIN PHOSPHORYLATION
    Regulation of Maize (Zea mays L.) Starch Synthase IIa by Protein Phosphorylation by Usha P. Rayirath A Thesis presented to The University of Guelph In partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Molecular and Cellular Biology Guelph, Ontario, Canada © Usha P. Rayirath, May, 2014 ABSTRACT REGULATION OF MAIZE (Zea mays L.) STARCH SYNTHASE IIa BY PROTEIN PHOSPHORYLATION Usha P. Rayirath Advisor: Dr. Michael J. Emes University of Guelph, 2014 Starch is a significant carbohydrate reserve in plants and has enormous use in both food and non-food industries. Biosynthesis of storage starch in maize (Zea mays L.) occurs in the amyloplasts of the developing endosperm, through the coordinated actions of several enzymes, including ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), starch synthases (SS), starch branching enzymes (SBE) and debranching enzymes (DBE). Starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) catalyzes the synthesis of intermediate glucan chains (DP 12- 25) and plays a significant role in starch biosynthesis. Previous studies indicate that in cereal endosperm, protein phosphorylation plays a major role in regulating the formation of functional multi-enzyme complexes between SSs and SBEs during starch biosynthesis and that SSIIa forms the core of such a functional protein complex, with SSI and SBEIIb. The present study investigated the specific role of protein phosphorylation on the regulation of SSIIa, in the amyloplasts of developing maize endosperm, during starch biosynthesis. In vitro phosphorylation of stromal SSIIa in maize amyloplasts was detected by phosphate affinity Mn2+ Phos-tagTM gel electrophoresis, Pro-Q® Diamond phospho-protein gel staining, and by autoradiography following radio labelling with γ- [32-P] ATP.
