摘要
A novel HMW glutenin subunit gene 1Dy10. 1 was isolated and characterized from Xinjiang wheat (Triticum petropavlovskyi. Udacz. et Migusch) accession Daomai 2. The complete open reading frame (ORF) of 1Dy10. 1 was 1 965 bp, encoding 655 amino acids. The numbers and distribution of cysteines in 1Dy 10.1 were similar to those of 1Dy10 and other y-type subunits. In the N-terminal of 1Dy 10.1, an amino acid was changed from L (leucine) to P (proline) at position 55. The repetitive domain of 1Dy10.1 differed from those of known HMW subunits by substitutions, insertions or/and deletions involving single or more amino acid residues. In the repetitive domain of subunit 1Dyl 0.1, the deletion of tripeptide GQQ in the consensus unit PGQGQQ resulted in the appearance of the motif PGQ that have not been observed in other known y-type HMW subunits. In comparison with the subunit 1Dy 12, a deletion of dipeptide GQ, which occurred in subunit IDy10, was also observed in subunit 1Dy10.1. The cloned IDylO. 1 gene had been successfully expressed in Escherichia coli, and the expressed protein had the identical mobility with the endogenous subunit IDy10.1 from seed.
