Until now, there are few studies and reports on the use of endogenous promoters of obligate biotrophic fungi. The WY195 promoter in the genome of , the rubber powdery mildew pathogen, was predicted using PromoterScan and its promoter function was verified by the transient expression of the β- () gene. WY195 drove high levels of expression in dicotyledons and monocotyledons. qRT-PCR indicated that expression regulated by the WY195 promoter was 17.54-fold greater than that obtained using the CaMV 35S promoter in dicotyledons (), and 5.09-fold greater than that obtained using the ACT1 promoter in monocotyledons (). Furthermore, WY195-regulated gene expression was induced under high-temperature and drought conditions. Soluble proteins extracted from WY195- transgenic tobacco was bioactive. Defensive micro-HR induced by the transgene expression of was observed on transgenic tobacco leaves. Disease resistance bioassays showed that WY195- transgenic tobacco enhanced the resistance to tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). WY195 has great potential for development as a new tool for genetic engineering. Further in-depth studies will help to better understand the transcriptional regulation mechanisms and the pathogenic mechanisms of .
到目前为止,关于专性活体营养型真菌内源启动子的使用研究和报道较少。利用PromoterScan预测了橡胶白粉病病原菌基因组中的WY195启动子,并通过β-()基因的瞬时表达验证了其启动子功能。WY195在双子叶植物和单子叶植物中驱动高水平的表达。qRT-PCR表明,在双子叶植物中,由WY195启动子调控的表达比使用CaMV 35S启动子获得的表达高17.54倍(),在单子叶植物中比使用ACT1启动子获得的表达高5.09倍()。此外,WY195调控的基因表达在高温和干旱条件下被诱导。从WY195转基因烟草中提取的可溶性蛋白具有生物活性。在转基因烟草叶片上观察到由转基因表达诱导的防御性微-HR。抗病性生物测定表明,WY195转基因烟草增强了对烟草花叶病毒(TMV)的抗性。WY195作为一种新的基因工程工具具有很大的开发潜力。进一步深入研究将有助于更好地理解转录调控机制和的致病机制。
