摘要

Betula platyphylla is a rich repository of pharmacologically active secondary metabolites known as birch triterpenoids (TBP). Here, we cloned the squalene synthase (SS) and squalene epoxidase genetic (SE) sequences from B. platyphylla that encode the key enzymes that are involved in triterpenoid biosynthesis and analyzed the conserved domains and phylogenetics of their corresponding proteins. The full-length sequence of BpSS is 1588 bp with a poly-A tail, which contained an open reading frame (ORF) of 1241 bp that encoded a protein of 413 amino acids. Additionally, the BpSE full-length sequence of 2040 bp with a poly-A tail was also obtained, which contained an ORF of 1581 bp encoding a protein of 526 amino acids. Their organ-specific expression patterns in 4-week-old tissue culture seedlings of B. platyphylla were detected by real-time PCR and showed that they were all highly expressed in leaves, as compared to stem and root tissues. Additionaly, both BpSS and BpSE were enhanced following stimulation with ethephon and MeJA. The expression of BpSS was enhanced by ABA, whereas BpSE was not. The SA treatment did not affect the BpSS and BpSE transcripts notably. Using a genome walking approach, promoter sequences of 965 and 1193 bp, respectively, for BpSS and BpSE were isolated, and they revealed several key cis-regulatory elements known to be involved in the response to phytohormone and abiotic plant stress. We also found that the BpSS protein is localized in the cytoplasm. Opening reading frames of BpSS and BpSE were ligated into yeast expression plasmid pYES2 under control of GAL1 promoter and introduced into the yeast INVScl1 strain. The transformants were cultured for 12 h, the squalene content of galactose-induced BpSS expression yeast cells was 13.2 times of control (empty vector control yeast cells) by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) test method. And, the squalene epoxidase activity of induced BpSE expression yeast cell was about 11.8 times of control. These indicated that we cloned birch BpSS and BpSE that were indeed involved in the synthesis of triteropenoids. This is the first report wherein SS and SE from B. platyphylla were cloned and may be of significant interest to understand the regulatory role of SS and SE in the triterpenoids biosynthesis of B. platyphylla.
