Gossypium hirsutum gene of unknown function Gohir.A03G007700.1 encodes a potential VAN3-binding protein with a phosphoinositide-binding site.

ABSTRACT: A gene of unknown function, Gohir.A03G007700.1 (gene ID: Gohir.A03G007700_UTX-TM1_v2.1; transcript ID: Gohir.A03G007700.1_UTX-TM1_v2.1), identified in Gossypium hirsutum was studied using bioinformatic analyses of the sequence and structure of its encoded protein. Results from domain prediction, conserved residues and structure comparison indicate the encoded plant-specific protein (UniProt A0A1U8N485) is part of the VAN3-binding protein family with a conserved phosphoinositide-binding site. Homology comparison suggests functional similarity with Arabidopsis FORKED-like FL5 and 6, which localize to the Golgi apparatus and are linked to vein development and leaf size phenotypes.

Gossypium hirsutum gene of unknown function, Gohir.A02G039501.1, encodes a potential DNA-binding ALOG protein involved in gene regulation.

Project description:A protein of unknown function encoded by gene Gohir.A02G039501.1 in Gossypium hirsutum , was studied using sequence and structure bioinformatic tools leading to its proposed function as a nuclear, DNA-binding ALOG protein involved in gene regulation during organ boundary specification and maintenance. The encoded protein contains a predicted nuclear localization sequence, an ALOG domain with conserved residues in the modeled DNA-binding regions and nearly identical sequence identity to Arabidopsis homologs involved in development of organ boundaries at the shoot apical meristem. The protein was modeled by AlphaFold2 to have a four-helix bundle that is structurally analogous to DNA-binding domains of XerC/D-like recombinases.

Gossypium hirsutum gene of unknown function Gohir.A03G0737001 encodes a potential Chaperone-like Protein of protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (CPP1).

Project description:A gene of unknown function identified in Gossypium hirsutum , Gohir.A03G0737001.1, was studied using sequence and bioinformatic tools. The encoded protein (referred to here as GhCPP1-A0A1U8HKT6) was predicted to function as a Chaperone-like protein of protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (CPP1), which is involved with initiation of photochemical reactions of chlorophyll biosynthesis. Sequence analysis indicates it is embedded in the chloroplast envelope membrane through four transmembrane regions and contains a J-like domain that is structurally similar to the J domain of DnaJ/Hsp40 "holdase" chaperone proteins.

Gossypium hirsutum gene of unknown function Gohir.A02G131900 encodes a potential plant-specific, dual-domain exo-1,3-β-glucosidase.

Project description:A gene of unknown function, Gohir.A02G131900.1, identified in Gossypium hirsutum was studied using computational sequence and structure bioinformatic tools. The encoded protein GhGH5BG-A0A1U8NW40 (UniProt A0A1U8NW40) is predicted to be secreted and localized to the cell wall. Homology and conserved residues indicate it belongs to a plant-specific subgroup of the glycoside hydrolase family 5 and likely has exo-1,3-β-glucosidase activity. This subgroup is unique in containing a fascin-like domain which may have evolved a unique glucan binding site of interest for further research.

Gene expression in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) fiber: cloning of the mRNAs.

Project description:Cotton, an important natural fiber, is a differentiated epidermal cell. The number of genes that are active in fiber cells is similar to those in leaf, ovule, or root tissues. Through differential screening of a fiber cDNA library, we isolated five cDNA clones that are preferentially expressed in fiber. One of the cDNA clones, pCKE6, corresponded to an abundant mRNA in fiber. Transcripts for E6 were detected throughout the development of the fiber. Immunoprecipitation of in vitro translation products and Western blot analysis of fiber proteins showed two polypeptides in the range of 30-32 kDa as the products of E6 mRNA. Sequence analysis and hybrid-selected RNA translation also suggest that E6 mRNAs encode two polypeptides. Concentrations of E6 mRNA and protein are highest during the late primary cell wall and early secondary cell wall synthesis stages. Sequence comparison of E6 with other known eukaryotic and prokaryotic genes reveals no significant homology (GenBank; December 1991). E6 or a homologous gene(s) is conserved in several members of Malvaceae as well as in one other fiber-producing plant, kapok, but is not found in several other plants examined or in Acetobacter xylinum. A genomic clone corresponding to pCKE6 was isolated, and the promoter element of the E6 gene was shown to direct the expression of a carrot extensin mRNA in a tissue-specific and developmentally regulated fashion in transgenic cotton plants.

Identification and characterization of the GhHsp20 gene family in Gossypium hirsutum.

Project description:In higher plants, Heat Shock Protein 20 (Hsp20) plays crucial roles in growth, development and responses to abiotic stresses. In this study, 94 GhHsp20 genes were identified in G. hirsutum, and these genes were phylogenetically clustered into 14 subfamilies. Out of these, 73 paralogous gene pairs remained in conserved positions on segmental duplicated blocks and only 14 genes clustered into seven tandem duplication event regions. Transcriptome analysis showed that 82 GhHsp20 genes were expressed in at least one tested tissues, indicating that the GhHsp20 genes were involved in physiological and developmental processes of cotton. Further, expression profiles under abiotic stress exhibited that two-thirds of the GhHsp20 genes were responsive to heat stress, while 15 genes were induced by multiple stresses. In addition, qRT-PCR confirmed that 16 GhHsp20 genes were hot-induced, and eight genes were up-regulated under multiple abiotic stresses and stress-related phytohormone treatments. Taken together, our results presented here would be helpful in laying the foundation for understanding the complex mechanisms of GhHsp20 mediated developmental processes and abiotic stress signaling transduction pathways in cotton.

Purification and biosynthesis of cottonseed (Gossypium hirsutum L.) catalase.

Project description:As part of our research on peroxisome biogenesis, catalase was purified from cotyledons of dark-grown cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) seedlings and monospecific antibodies were raised in rabbits. Purified catalase appeared as three distinct electrophoretic forms in non-denaturing gels and as a single protein band (with a subunit Mr of 57,000) on silver-stained SDS/polyacrylamide gels. Western blots of crude extracts and isolated peroxisomes from cotton revealed one immunoreactive polypeptide with the same Mr (57,000) as the purified enzyme, indicating that catalase did not undergo any detectable change in Mr during purification. Synthesis in vitro, directed by polyadenylated RNA isolated from either maturing seeds or cotyledons of dark-grown cotton seedlings, revealed a predominant immunoreactive translation product with a subunit Mr of 57,000 and an additional minor immunoreactive product with a subunit Mr of 64000. Labelling studies in vivo revealed newly synthesized monomers of both the 64000- and 57,000-Mr proteins present in the cytosol and incorporation of both proteins into the peroxisome without proteolytic processing. Within the peroxisome, the 57,000-Mr catalase was found as an 11S tetramer; whereas the 64,000-Mr protein was found as a relatively long-lived 20S aggregate (native Mr approx. 600,000-800,000). The results strongly indicate that the 64,000-Mr protein (catalase?) is not a precursor to the 57,000-Mr catalase and that cotton catalase is translated on cytosolic ribosomes without a cleavable transit or signal sequence.

Comparative genomic study of ALDH gene superfamily in Gossypium: A focus on Gossypium hirsutum under salt stress.

Project description:Aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) are a superfamily of enzymes which play important role in the scavenging of active aldehydes molecules. In present work, a comprehensive whole-genomic study of ALDH gene superfamily was carried out for an allotetraploid cultivated cotton species, G. hirsutum, as well as in parallel relative to their diploid progenitors, G. arboreum and G. raimondii. Totally, 30 and 58 ALDH gene sequences belong to 10 families were identified from diploid and allotetraploid cotton species, respectively. The gene structures among the members from same families were highly conserved. Whole-genome duplication and segmental duplication might be the major driver for the expansion of ALDH gene superfamily in G. hirsutum. In addition, the expression patterns of GhALDH genes were diverse across tissues. Most GhALDH genes were induced or repressed by salt stress in upland cotton. Our observation shed lights on the molecular evolutionary properties of ALDH genes in diploid cottons and their alloallotetraploid derivatives. It may be useful to mine key genes for improvement of cotton response to salt stress.

Identification and analysis of isoflavone reductase gene family in Gossypium hirsutum L.

Project description:Isoflavone reductase (IFR) is a key enzyme controlling isoflavone synthesis and widely involved in response to various stresses. In this study, the IFR genes in four Gossypium species and other 7 species were identified and analyzed in the whole genome, and the physicochemical properties, gene structures, cis-acting elements, chromosomal locations, collinearity relationships and expression patterns of IFR genes were systematically analyzed. 28, 28, 14 and 15 IFR genes were identified in Gossypium hirsutum, Gossypium barbadense, Gossypium arboreum and Gossypium raimondii, respectively, which were divided into five clades according to the evolutionary tree and gene structure. Collinear analysis showed that segmental duplication and whole genome duplication were the main driving forces in the process of evolution, and most genes underwent pure selection. Gene structure analysis showed that IFR gene family was relatively conserved. Cis-element analysis of promoter showed that most GhIFR genes contain cis-elements related to abiotic stresses and plant hormones. Analysis of GhIFR gene expression under different stresses showed that GhIFR genes were involved in the response to drought, salt, heat and cold stresses through corresponding network mechanisms, especially GhIFR9A. Phenotypic analysis after silencing GhIFR9A gene by VIGS was shown that GhIFR9A gene was involved in the response to salt stress. This study laid a foundation for the subsequent functional study of cotton IFR genes.
