The results show that the method has the advantages of,NtODBthe relative expression amount of the constitutive expression characteristics of different organs of the common tobacco in the full bloom stage is obviously different among the different organs. The most abundant expression was found in leaves, and the most abundant expression was found in stems and sepals, and the least abundant expression was found in petals (fig. 7).
In order to further study the subcellular localization of the NtODB protein, the distribution of the green fluorescent protein is observed under a laser confocal microscope by taking an empty carrier as a control, and as a result, the fluorescent signal of the transferred pBI121-GFP is found to be distributed in the whole cell; while the green fluorescent signal of the pBI121-NtODB-GFP fusion protein was localized to the chloroplasts and cell membranes (FIG. 8).
Discussion of analysis
This study showed that NtODB is constitutively expressed in different organs of tobacco. However, there is a difference in the relative expression levels in different organs, and the abundance of expression in the petals of the reproductive organ is lower than that in other organs. Samach et al found that the Arabidopsis ODB1 protein was localized in chloroplasts, nuclei and chloroplasts, but not in the ODB1 cell membrane, by subcellular localization experiments. The subcellular localization conclusion of other plant ODB1 homologous proteins is not reported. This study showed that tobacco NtODB is expressed only in chloroplasts and cell membranes. This is consistent with the software-predicted NtODB subcellular localization results. Can be effectively used as a chloroplast-cell membrane double-localization marker gene.
