Specific embodiment
I. the general introduction of several embodiments
The exploitation of transgenic plant product just becomes to become increasingly complex.Viable commercial genetically modified plants need at present by Multiple transgenosis are stacked to individual gene seat.For basic research or the plant promoter and 3 ' UTR mono- of biotechnology applications As be it is unidirectional, be directed only to merge one in the 5 ' ends (upstream) of the end 3' (downstream) or its 3 ' UTR of its promoter Gene.Therefore, each transgenosis is required to promoter and 3 ' UTR usually with for expressing, wherein in one gene of expression stacks Multiple transgenosis need multiple controlling elements.With gene stack in the number of transgenosis increase, routinely using identical Promoter and/or 3 ' UTR to obtain the expression pattern of the optimum level of different transgenosis.Obtain the transgenosis table of optimum level Up to being necessary to generate single polygenic character.Regrettably, it is known that driven by identical promoter and/or 3 ' UTR Polygenes construct causes gene silencing, to generate the transgene product being less effective in the art.Duplicate promoter And/or 3 ' UTR element can cause the gene silencing based on homology.In addition, the repetitive sequence in transgenosis can cause gene to exist Homologous recombination in locus, causes polynucleotides to be reset.The silencing of transgenosis and rearrangement will likely be to generated transgenosis The performance of plant express transgenic has undesirable influence.In addition, transcription factor (TF) caused by being repeated due to promoter Binding site excessively can cause endogenous TF to exhaust, and cause transcriptional inactivation.In view of need by multiple genes into plant with It is stacked for metabolic engineering and character, needs multiple promoters and/or 3 ' UTR to generate turning for the multiple gene expressions of driving Gene crops.
Particular problem in promoter and/or 3 ' UTR identification is the specific cell type for needing to identify with plant, development Stage and/or the relevant tissue-specific promoter that do not expressed in other plant tissue of function.Tissue specificity is (that is, group Knit preferred) or the kernel of organ specific promoters driving such as plant, root, leaf or tapetum certain tissues in gene Expression.Tissue and stage of development specificity promoter and/or 3 ' UTR can initially the expression of gene identifies from, the gene Special time period expression in specific organization or during development of plants.These tissue-specific promoters and/or 3 ' UTR are It is certain using required in genetically modified plants industry, and since it allows heterologous gene to organize and/or the stage of development is selected Selecting property mode is specific expressed but desired, to show heterologous gene differentially in various organs, tissue and/or time Expression, but do not expressed in its hetero-organization.It can be by with disease to the resistance of the pathogenic infection of soil-borne for example, increasing plant Pathogen resistance gene-transformed plant genome, so that pathogen-resistance albumen is steadily and surely expressed in plant roots to realize.Alternatively, can It can need the express transgenic in the plant tissue in particular growth or in the stage of development (such as, cell division or elongation). Another application is that expectation uses the transgenosis of tissue-specific promoter and/or 3 ' UTR limitation coding Agronomic character such as It is expressed in the particular tissue type of developmental parenchyma cell.Therefore, promoter and/or 3 ' UTR identify in particular problem be How to identify promoter and how to be associated with the promoter identified to be used for specific tissue table with the developmental characteristic of cell It reaches.
Another problem identified about promoter is to need to clone all related cis actings and transactivated transcription control Element processed is transcribed with the DNA fragmentation that toilet is cloned with desired particular expression mode activated.In view of such control element is located at Translation starting or initiation site distal side are chosen as the size of the polynucleotides comprising promoter for providing promoter polynucleotides The expression and expression pattern of sequence are most important.It is known that promoter length includes functional information, and different bases There is promoter longer than the promoter of other genes in genome or shorter because verified.Illustrate the transcription initiation of promoter Functioning gene element in site and prediction promoter region is challenging.Further increase challenge be regulation motif with And complexity, diversity and the intrinsic degeneracy (Blanchette, Mathieu et al., " of cis and trans controlling element Genome-wide computational prediction of transcriptional regulatory modules reveals new insights into human gene expression.”Genome research 16.5(2006): 656-668).Cis and trans controlling element is located at the distal part of promoter, which adjusts the room and time of gene Only there is (Porto, Milena Silva et al., " Plant promoters:an in required site and specific time in expression approach of structure and function."Molecular biotechnology 56.1(2014):38- 49).Existing promoter Analysis tool can not reliably in sldh gene group sequence such cis-regulating element, so that prediction is too More false positives, because these tools generally concentrate merely on sequence content (Fickett JW, Hatzigeorgiou AG (1997) Eukaryotic promoter recognition.Genome research 7:861–878).Therefore, identify promoter tune It controls element and needs to obtain the appropriate sequence with particular size, which will lead to what driving in a desired manner was operably connected The expression of transgenosis.
The present invention provides through use -3 gene regulatory elements of rice ubiquitin that problems is overcome to turn to express in plant The method and composition of gene.

The activation of upstream promoter is carried out by the adjusting DNA sequence element of other sequence, the adjusting DNA sequence element It is combined and then interacted with transcription initiation complex with active gene expression by various protein.These gene regulations member Part sequence and specific DNA binding factor interact.These sequence motifs can be described as cis element sometimes.Tissue specificity or Such cis element that development-specific transcription factor combines either individually or in combination can make decision promoter in transcriptional level Spatial and temporal expression profile.These cis elements change extensively in terms of the Control Cooling that it is applied to the gene being operably connected. Some elements are for increasing turning for the gene being operably connected in response to environment reaction (for example, temperature, humidity and injury) Record.Other cis elements can be to development clue (for example, germinateing, seed is mature and blooms) or to spatial information (for example, tissue Specificity) it makes a response.See, for example, Langridge et al., (1989) Proc.Natl.Acad.Sci.USA 86:3219- 23.These cis elements are located at the different distance away from transcripting start point, and some cis elements (referred to as proximal element) are neighbouring most Small core promoter region, and other elements can be located at thousands of a bases in promoter (enhancer) upstream or downstream.
As used herein, term " 5' non-translational region " or " 5'-UTR " are defined as the end 5' of premessenger RNA or maturation mRNA Untranslated section.For example, 5'-UTR usually contains 7- methylguanosine cap in its end 5' and participates in many on mature mRNA Process, such as montage, polyadenylation, mRNA export the end 5' and the protection for identifying mRNA to cytoplasm, by machine translator MRNA is from degradation.
As used herein, term " transcription terminator " is defined as the transcription section of the end 3' of premessenger RNA or maturation mRNA. For example, the relatively length dna extension except " polyadenylation signal " site is transcribed into premessenger RNA.This DNA sequence dna usually contains transcription Premessenger RNA to be suitably processed as mature mRNA by termination signal.
As used herein, term " 3 ' non-translational region " or " 3'-UTR " are defined as the end 3' of premessenger RNA or maturation mRNA Untranslated section.For example, on mature mRNA, this area contain the poly- tail portion (A) and it is known mRNA stability, translation initiation and There are many effects in mRNA output.In addition, 3'-UTR is considered as including polyadenylation signal and transcription terminator.
