We isolated a cDNA homolog of Neurospora crassa wc-2 from the basidiomycetous mushroom Lentinula edodes and termed it phrB cDNA. The deduced PHRB (313 amino acid residues) contained a PAS domain and a zinc-finger motif. Random binding-site selection analysis of the PHRB produced in Escherichia coli revealed that it bound to a 7-bp sequence with the consensus sequence 5'GATA/TTG/T/AC3'. Electrophoretic mobility-shift assay showed that it also bound to the consensus sequence 5'GATATTC3' in the promoter region of the L. edodes tyrosinase gene (Le.tyr). In vitro GST-pulldown immunoblot analysis disclosed that PHRB interacts with a putative blue-light photoreceptor of L. edodes (PHRA), the homolog of N. crassa WC-1, through the PAS B- and/or PAS C domain of PHRA. The expression of phrB and Le.tyr genes in pre-primordial mycelia of L. edodes is induced by light exposure, suggesting that PHRB can regulate the expression of the Le.tyr gene in a light-dependent manner.
我们从担子菌香菇中分离出粗糙脉孢菌wc - 2的一个cDNA同源物,并将其命名为phrB cDNA。推导的PHRB(313个氨基酸残基)包含一个PAS结构域和一个锌指基序。对在大肠杆菌中产生的PHRB进行随机结合位点选择分析表明,它与一个7碱基对序列结合,其共有序列为5'GATA/TTG/T/AC3'。电泳迁移率变动分析表明,它还与香菇酪氨酸酶基因(Le.tyr)启动子区域的共有序列5'GATATTC3'结合。体外GST下拉免疫印迹分析显示,PHRB通过PHRA的PAS B和/或PAS C结构域与香菇假定的蓝光光感受器(PHRA)相互作用,PHRA是粗糙脉孢菌WC - 1的同源物。香菇原基前菌丝体中phrB和Le.tyr基因的表达受光照诱导,这表明PHRB可以以光依赖的方式调节Le.tyr基因的表达。
