The complete chloroplast genome of Stephania tetrandra (Menispermaceae).

ABSTRACT: The complete chloroplast genome of Stephania tetrandra was sequenced and assembled for the first time. The chloroplast genome is 159,974 bp in length, containing a large single-copy (LSC) region of 90,539 bp and a small single-copy region (SSC) of 20,735 bp, separated by a pair of inverted repeats (IRs) of 24,350 bp. The genome contains 113 unique genes, including 79 protein-coding genes (PCGs), 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. Among them, 15 genes have one intron each and three genes contain two introns. The overall GC content is 37.8%, while the corresponding values of LSC, SSC, and IR regions are 35.8, 32.4, and 43.7%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that S. tetrandra is more closely related to the clade of two species within Stephania, providing new insight into the evolution of Menispermaceae.

Complete chloroplast genome sequence of Stephania kwangsiensis (Menispermaceae), a rare and critically endangered species endemic to China.

Project description:Stephania kwangsiensis (Menispermaceae) is a rare and critically endangered species endemic to China. Here, we first report and characterize its complete chloroplast genome sequence based on Illumina paired-end sequencing data. The complete plastid genome was 156,624 bp, which contained inverted repeats (IR) of 24,348 bp separated by a large single-copy (LSC) and a small single copy (SSC) of 87,759 bp and 20,169 bp, respectively. The cpDNA contains 132 genes, comprising 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, eight rRNA genes, and two processed pseudogenes. The overall GC content of the plastome is 38.4%. The phylogenetic analysis of 18 selected chloroplast genomes demonstrated that S. kwangsiensis is related to the congeneric S. japonica.

The complete chloroplast genome of Sinomenium acutum (Menispermaceae).

Project description:We generated the complete chloroplast genome sequence of Sinomenium acutum, a species of the Menispermaceae family, and characterized from the de novo assembly of Illumina HiSeq paired-end sequencing data. The total length of the chloroplast genome of S. acutum was 162,787 bp with a large single-copy (LSC) region of 91,430 bp, a small single-copy (SSC) region of 21,245 bp, and a pair of identical inverted repeat regions (IRs) of 25,056 bp. The total of 131 genes were annotated in the chloroplast genome of Sinomenium acutum, including 85 protein-coding genes, 38 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and 8 ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes. The phylogenetic analysis of S. acutum with 18 related species revealed the closest taxonomical relationship with Menispermum dauricum in the Menispermaceae family.

The complete chloroplast genome of Menispermum dauricum (Menispermaceae, Ranunculales).

Project description:Menispermum dauricum is a woody liana with great medicinal value. In the current study, we assembled the first chloroplast (cp) genome of M. dauricum. The whole chloroplast genome is 158,623?bp in length, with one large copy region (LSC: 88,879?bp), a small single copy region (SSC: 20,644?bp), and two inverted repeats (IR: 24,550?bp). The cp genome contains 114 unique genes with 80 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and four rRNA genes. In our phylogeny of Ranunculales, Papaveraceae is found to be the basal group of Ranunculales and M. dauricum is sister to Stephania japonica.

Otoprotective Effects of Stephania tetrandra S. Moore Herb Isolate against Acoustic Trauma.

Project description:Noise is the most common occupational and environmental hazard, and noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL) is the second most common form of sensorineural hearing deficit. Although therapeutics that target the free-radical pathway have shown promise, none of these compounds is currently approved against NIHL by the United States Food and Drug Administration. The present study has demonstrated that tetrandrine (TET), a traditional Chinese medicinal alkaloid and the main chemical isolate of the Stephania tetrandra S. Moore herb, significantly attenuated NIHL in CBA/CaJ mice. TET is known to exert antihypertensive and antiarrhythmic effects through the blocking of calcium channels. Whole-cell patch-clamp recording from adult spiral ganglion neurons showed that TET blocked the transient Ca2+ current in a dose-dependent manner and the half-blocking concentration was 0.6?+?0.1 ?M. Consistent with previous findings that modulations of calcium-based signaling pathways have both prophylactic and therapeutic effects against neural trauma, NIHL was significantly diminished by TET administration. Importantly, TET has a long-lasting protective effect after noise exposure (48 weeks) in comparison to 2 weeks after noise exposure. The otoprotective effects of TET were achieved mainly by preventing outer hair cell damage and synapse loss between inner hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons. Thus, our data indicate that TET has great potential in the prevention and treatment of NIHL.

The complete chloroplast genome of Arcangelisia gusanlung H.S.Lo (Menispermaceae), an important traditional medicine from South China

Project description:Abstract Arcangelisia gusanlung H.S.Lo is widely used as a folk medicine by the Dai and Li peoples. Here, we report the first complete chloroplast (cp) genome sequence for this species based on Illumina paired-end sequencing data. The cp genome was 162,509 bp in length with a small single-copy (SSC) region of 20,852 bp, a large single-copy (LSC) region of 91,449 bp, and two separated inverted region of 25,104 bp. In total, 129 unique genes were identified of this genome, including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. The GC contents of this genome is 37.8%. Phylogenetic analysis based on 13 complete cp genomes showed a strong sister relationship with Tinospora cordifolia (Willd.) Miers and Tinospora sinensis (Lour.) Merr. This complete genome of A. gusanlung will provide valuable information to elucidate the mechanism of speciation of Arcangelisia Becc.

Transcriptome Analysis of Stephania tetrandra and Characterization of Norcoclaurine-6-O-Methyltransferase Involved in Benzylisoquinoline Alkaloid Biosynthesis.

Project description:Stephania tetrandra (S. Moore) is a source of traditional Chinese medicine that is widely used to treat rheumatism, rheumatoid arthritis, edema, and hypertension. Benzylisoquinoline alkaloids (BIAs) are the main bioactive compounds. However, the current understanding of the biosynthesis of BIAs in S. tetrandra is poor. Metabolite and transcriptomic analyses of the stem, leaf, xylem, and epidermis of S. tetrandra were performed to identify candidate genes associated with BIAs biosynthesis. According to the metabolite analysis, the majority of the BIAs accumulated in the root, especially in the epidermis. Transcriptome sequencing revealed a total of 113,338 unigenes that were generated by de novo assembly. Among them, 79,638 unigenes were successfully annotated, and 42 candidate structural genes associated with 15 steps of BIA biosynthesis identified. Additionally, a new (S)-norcoclaurine-6-O-methyltransferase (6OMT) gene was identified in S. tetrandra, named St6OMT2. Recombinant St6OMT2 catalyzed (S)-norcoclaurine methylation to form (S)-coclaurine in vitro. Maximum activity of St6OMT2 was determined at 30°C and pH 6.0 in NaAc-HAc buffer. Its half-life at 50°C was 22 min with the Km and kcat of 28.2 μM and 1.5 s-1, respectively. Our results provide crucial transcriptome information for S. tetrandra, shedding light on the understanding of BIAs biosynthesis and further gene functional characterization.
