Overexpression of ZmSUS1 gene alters the content and composition of endosperm starch in maize (Zea mays L.)

ABSTRACT: Cereal crops accumulate starch in seeds as an energy reserve. Sucrose synthase (SuSy) plays an important role in grain starch synthesis. In this study, ZmSUS1 was transformed into maize inbred line KN5585, and transgenic plants were obtained. Compared with the control, the content and activity of SuSy were significantly increased, the amylose content in mature seeds of transgenic maize increased by 41.1-69.2%, the total starch content increased by 5.0-13.5%, The 100-grain weight increased by 19.0-26.2% and the average diameter of starch granules increased by 10.8-17.2%. These results indicated that overexpression of ZmSUS1 can significantly improve the traits of maize kernels and obtain new lines with high amylose content. It was also found that ZmSUS1 may increase the amylose content by regulating the expression of Shrunken2 (Sh2) and Brittle2 (Bt2) which encodes endosperm ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase) size subunits, and the expression of Granule bound starchsynthase1 (GBSS1) and Starch synthase1 (SS1) which encodes starch synthase. This study proved the important role of ZmSUS1 in maize starch synthesis, and provided a new technology strategy for improving corn starch content and yield.

Wheat leaf phosphoproteome under drought stress

Project description:Waxy starch has an important influence on the qualities of breads. Generally, grain weight and yield in waxy wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are significantly lower than in bread wheat. In this study, we performed the first proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses of starch granule-binding proteins by comparing the waxy wheat cultivar Shannong 119 and the bread wheat cultivar Nongda 5181. These results indicate that reduced amylose content does not affect amylopectin synthesis, but it causes significant reduction of total starch biosynthesis, grain size, weight and grain yield. Two-dimensional differential in-gel electrophoresis identified 40 differentially expressed protein (DEP) spots in waxy and non-waxy wheats, which belonged mainly to starch synthase (SS) I, SS IIa and granule-bound SS I. Most DEPs involved in amylopectin synthesis showed a similar expression pattern during grain development, suggesting relatively independent amylose and amylopectin synthesis pathways. Phosphoproteome analysis of starch granule-binding proteins, using TiO2 microcolumns and LC-MS/MS, showed that the total number of phosphoproteins and their phosphorylation levels in ND5181 were significantly higher than in SN119, but proteins controlling amylopectin synthesis had similar phosphorylation levels. Our results revealed the lack of amylose did not affect the expression and phosphorylation of the starch granule-binding proteins involved in amylopectin biosynthesis.

New Insights into the Biosynthesis and Regulation of Wheat Amylose and Amylopectin from Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Characterization of Granule-binding Proteins

Project description:Waxy starch has an important influence on bread dough and the qualities of breads. Generally, grain weight and yield in waxy wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are significantly lower than in bread wheat. In this study, we performed the first proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses of starch granule-binding proteins by comparing the waxy wheat cultivar Shannong 119 and the bread wheat cultivar Nongda 5181. The waxy and non-waxy wheats had similar starch granule morphological features and developmental patterns, and similar amylopectin quality in the grain. These results indicate that reduced amylose content does not affect amylopectin synthesis, but it causes significant reduction of total starch biosynthesis, grain size, weight and yield. Two-dimensional differential in-gel electrophoresis identified 40 differentially expressed protein (DEP) spots in waxy and non-waxy wheats, which belonged mainly to starch synthase (SS) I, SS IIa and granule-bound SS I. Most DEPs involved in amylopectin synthesis showed a similar expression pattern during grain development, suggesting relatively independent amylose and amylopectin synthesis pathways. Phosphoproteome analysis of starch granule-binding proteins, using TiO2 microcolumns and LC-MS/MS, showed that the total number of phosphoproteins and their phosphorylation levels in ND5181 were significantly higher than in SN119, but proteins controlling amylopectin synthesis had similar phosphorylation levels. Dynamic transcriptional expression profiling of starch biosynthesis-related genes indicated similar transcriptional expression profiles in both cultivars. Our results revealed that phosphorylation modifications played critical roles in amylose and amylopectin biosynthesis, but the lack of amylose did not affect the expression and phosphorylation of the starch granule-binding proteins involved in amylopectin biosynthesis.

A Novel Regulatory Region for Amylose Synthesis in Rice Grains Identified by Systems Genetics Approach.

Project description:A deeper understanding of the genetics of rice grain starch structure is crucial in tailoring grain digestibility and ensuring cooking quality to meet consumer preferences. Significant association peaks on chromosomes 6 and 7 were identified through genome-wide association study (GWAS) of debranched starch structure from grains of a 320 indica rice diversity panel using genotyping data from the high-density rice array. A systems genetics approach that interrelates starch structure data from GWAS to functional pathways from a gene regulatory network identified known and novel genes with high correlation to the proportion of amylose and amylopectin. A novel SNP in the promoter region of Granule Bound Starch Synthase I (GBSS I) was identified along with seven other SNPs to form haplotypes that discriminate samples into different phenotypic ranges of amylose. A novel GWAS peak on chromosome 7 between LOC_Os07g11020 and LOC_Os07g11520 indexed by a non-synonymous SNP mutation on exon 5 of a bHLH transcription factor was found to elevate the proportion of amylose at the expense of reduced short-chain amylopectin. Linking starch structure with starch digestibility by determining the kinetics of cooked grain amylolysis of selected haplotypes revealed strong association of starch structure with estimated digestibility kinetics. Combining all results from grain quality genomics, systems genetics, and digestibility phenotyping, we propose novel target haplotypes for fine-tuning starch structure in rice through marker-assisted breeding that can be used to alter the digestibility of rice grain, thus offering rice consumers a new diet-based intervention to mitigate the impact of nutrition-related non-communicable diseases.

Gene Expression in Rats Fed a Western Diet

Project description:Resistant starches (RS), fed as high amylose maize starch (HAMS) or butyrylated HAMS (HAMSB), oppose dietary protein-induced colonocyte DNA damage in rats. In this study, rats were fed diets high in fat (19%) and protein (20%) with different forms of digestible starch (low amylose maize starch (LAMS) or low amylose whole wheat (LAW)) or RS (HAMS, HAMSB, or a whole high amylose wheat (HAW) generated by RNA interference (RNAi)) for 11 wk. A control diet contained 7% fat, 13% protein and LAMS. The aim of this study was to detect changes in the expression of DNA damage and repair genes in response to the above dietary treatments. Distal colon tissues from Sprague Dawley rats fed a variety of diets (see summary) were removed from RNAlater stabilisation reagent (Sigma, Australia) they had been stored in,, placed in 1 ml of TRIzol® Reagent (Invitrogen, Australia) and homogenised usingbeads (mix of 2.5 mm glass and 0.1 - 1.0 mm diameter silicon-zirconian beads) in a MiniBeadbeater-8 (BioSpec Products Inc., USA). Total RNA was extracted (using TRIzol® Reagent manufacturer's instructions) and further purified using RNAeasy mini spin columns (QIAGEN, Australia) with a DNase on-column digestion as per manufacturer's instructions.RNA integrity was checked using a Bioanalyzer 2100 (Agilent Technologies, USA) andquantified using a NanoDrop® ND-1000 Spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific, USA). RNA samples with insufficinet quality and quantity were not assayed. The numbers of rats arrayed from each diet were as follows: CON, 5;LAMS, 7; HAMS, 8; HAMSB, 9; LAW, 6; HAW , 8. This gives a total of 43 arrays.

A time-resolved transcriptome atlas of maize grain development

Project description:Using high-throughput RNA sequencing, we developed a spatiotemporal transcriptome atlas for seed development of eight maize inbred lines based on 144 samples from the middle to late stages of grain development. A total of 26,747 genes with FPKM value more than 1 at least one sample were found to be involved in programming grain development. Global comparisons of genes expression highlighted the fundamental transcriptomic reprogramming and the phases of development. Coexpression analysis provided further insight into the dynamic reprogramming of the transcriptome by revealing functional transitions during maturation. Combined with grain moisture content and grain dehydration rate of different developmental time points of eight maize inbred lines, we captured a large number of genes related to grain moisture content and grain dehydration rate, which should help elucidate key mechanisms and regulatory networks that underlie grain dehydration during maize grain development. These results provide a comprehensive understanding of which biological processes are involved in the regulation of moisture variety of maize grain, the general principles of which provide a new perspective on improving maize grain dehydration characteristics. Meanwhile, this study provides a valuable resource for understanding the genetic regulation of maize grain development.

RNAi knock down of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGP) in Pisum sativum developing cotyledons

Project description:During seed growth, sugar and nitrogen compounds confer regulatory control on storage activities. Thus, seed storage production could be regulated by the supply of nutrients. In order to improve nitrogen flux into the embryo, transgenic pea lines were created where ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGP) from Pisum sativum has been repressed by RNAi approach in the seeds under control of the seed-specific LeB4 promotor (Bäumlein et al. Cis-analysis of a seed protein gene promoter: the conservative RY repeat CATGCATG within legumin box is essential for tissue-specific expression of a legumin gene. Plant J 1992 2: 233-239). The plastidial enzyme AGP catalyzes the reaction of glucose-1-phosphate and ATP to pyrophosphate and ADP-glucose, which is the substrate for starch synthase. The AGP activity and transcript levels were strongly decreased in three independent transgenic lines. Repression of AGP results in a wrinkled seed phenotype obviously due to transient accumulation of free sugars during maturation. Mature seeds have reduced starch content whereas the protein concentration is higher due to increased fractions of albumins and globulins. Repression of AGP interferes with storage protein metabolism and alters fluxes of nitrogen during seed growth. The influence of decreased AGP on altered gene expression in developing cotyledons was analysed using a 6k-Oligo-microarray. Ps6kOLI1 microarray hybridization were performed using three independent biological replicates of four developmental stages (20, 25, 30 and 35 DAP) from seeds of the transgenic line iAGP-3.
