Somatic embryogenesis receptor-like kinases (), a subfamily of receptor-like kinases, play important roles in response to abiotic stresses in addition to apomictic reproductive development in numerous plant species. The purpose of the present work was to determine if an ortholog of the gene is present in the genome, isolate it and analyze its expression during embryogeny and abiotic stress. An ortholog of the gene was isolated from the genome, and designated as . The physical and chemical properties, protein structure, and evolutionary relationship of the 1 protein were analyzed by bioinformatics methods, and the expression of gene during embryonic development and under low-temperature, salt, and drought stresses was examined through real-time quantitative PCR analysis. contained 1,881 bp open reading frame encoding 626 amino acids, with a molecular mass of 69.18 kDa and pI of 5.34. had strong hydrophilic property, signal peptide cleavage sites, and two transmembrane regions, indicating that is a secretory protein. The secondary structure of was consistent with the tertiary structure, both of which were dominated by random curls and alpha-helices. had the typical structure of SERK proteins, and harbored multiple phosphorylation and glycosylation sites. Quantitative analysis showed that was expressed during the embryonic development period, and the highest expression level was at 10 days post-flowering. The expression level was down-regulated under low-temperature stress and up-regulated under drought and salt stresses. Our study showed that was expressed in embryo development and could respond to low-temperature, drought, and salt stresses, which lays a foundation for further research on the function of in the apomixis growth and development of environmental adaptation in
体细胞胚胎发生受体类激酶(SERK)是受体类激酶的一个亚家族,除了在许多植物物种的无融合生殖发育中发挥重要作用外,还在应对非生物胁迫方面发挥重要作用。本研究的目的是确定该基因的直系同源基因是否存在于该基因组中,将其分离并分析其在胚胎发生和非生物胁迫期间的表达。从该基因组中分离出该基因的一个直系同源基因,并将其命名为。通过生物信息学方法分析了该蛋白的理化性质、蛋白质结构和进化关系,并通过实时定量PCR分析检测了该基因在胚胎发育过程中以及在低温、盐和干旱胁迫下的表达。该基因包含1881bp的开放阅读框,编码626个氨基酸,分子量为69.18kDa,等电点为5.34。该蛋白具有很强的亲水性、信号肽切割位点和两个跨膜区域,表明它是一种分泌蛋白。该蛋白的二级结构与三级结构一致,均以无规卷曲和α-螺旋为主。该蛋白具有SERK蛋白的典型结构,并含有多个磷酸化和糖基化位点。定量分析表明,该基因在胚胎发育时期表达,开花后10天表达水平最高。该基因的表达水平在低温胁迫下下调,在干旱和盐胁迫下上调。我们的研究表明,该基因在胚胎发育中表达,并且能够响应低温、干旱和盐胁迫,这为进一步研究该基因在无融合生殖生长发育和环境适应性方面的功能奠定了基础。
