Description

特異性造成植物葉綠體基因變異的轉殖載體、套組、方法及利用其產生之轉殖植物細胞與農桿菌Transplantation vector, set and method for specifically causing plant chloroplast gene variation, and transgenic plant cells and Agrobacterium produced using the same

本發明關於一種植物基因轉殖載體及方法,特別是關於一種植物細胞核基因轉殖載體及方法,其可用來造成葉綠體基因的變異。The invention relates to a plant gene transfer vector and method, in particular to a plant cell nuclear gene transfer vector and method, which can be used to cause chloroplast gene mutation.

傳統上要進行植物葉綠體基因的靜默、修飾與編輯,需要先行構築含有欲修飾的基因序列之葉綠體表現載體,接著利用基因槍轟擊法,將表現載體導入葉綠體內,再經由同源重組的方式取代原有的基因序列(Bock, 2015)。但是基因槍轟擊法的技術門檻高,需要訓練有素、經驗豐富的技術人員和昂貴的儀器去操作執行,而且基因槍耗材需求的成本高,於葉綠體的轉殖效率低。此外,由於一個植物細胞含有數十至數百個葉綠體,一個葉綠體也含有數十或上百個基因組,因此基因槍轟擊法所需篩選過程的時間冗長。Traditionally, to silence, modify and edit plant chloroplast genes, it is necessary to construct a chloroplast expression vector containing the gene sequence to be modified first, and then use the gene gun bombardment method to introduce the expression vector into the chloroplast and replace it by homologous recombination. The original gene sequence (Bock, 2015). However, the technical threshold of the gene gun bombardment method is high, which requires trained, experienced technicians and expensive instruments to operate and execute, and the cost of the gene gun consumables is high, and the efficiency of chloroplast transformation is low. In addition, since a plant cell contains tens to hundreds of chloroplasts, and a chloroplast also contains tens or hundreds of genomes, the time required for the screening process by the gene gun bombardment method is lengthy.

除了基因槍轟擊法,也可利用PEG(polyethylene glycol)媒介法進行葉綠體基因轉殖,亦有報導可以成功地將表現載體經由原生質體(protoplasts)導入少數植物的葉綠體中(Bock, 2015)。此方法雖然不需要昂貴的儀器,但是需要製備原生質體,而原生質體脆弱、操作不易,而且轉殖後又需自原生質體再生成植株。雖然耗材成本較低,但原生質體的再生技術門檻高,且再生過程所需的時間很長,大部分植物尚未建立此技術,現行只有少數植物可行。此外,PEG媒介法也有可能會產生出多倍體的細胞、轉殖效率低、篩選過程時間冗長等問題。In addition to the gene gun bombardment method, PEG (polyethylene glycol) vector method can also be used for chloroplast gene transformation. It has also been reported that expression vectors can be successfully introduced into chloroplasts of a few plants via protoplasts (Bock, 2015). Although this method does not require expensive equipment, it requires the preparation of protoplasts, and the protoplasts are fragile and difficult to handle, and plants need to be regenerated from the protoplasts after transplantation. Although the cost of consumables is low, the threshold of protoplast regeneration technology is high, and the time required for the regeneration process is very long. Most plants have not yet established this technology, and currently only a few plants are feasible. In addition, the PEG-mediated method may also produce polyploid cells, low colonization efficiency, and lengthy screening process.

總而言之,現有葉綠體基因轉殖技術仍有許多缺點、問題有待克服和改進,包括門檻高、轉殖效率低、篩選過程的時間冗長、需投入甚多人力和物力等。此外,由於葉綠體基因組較小且基因密度高,一般皆是利用同源重組的方式將外源基因插入基因組中,相較於細胞核轉殖的隨機地插入細胞核基因組中的方式,葉綠體轉殖效率低很多。All in all, the existing chloroplast gene transfer technology still has many shortcomings and problems to be overcome and improved, including high threshold, low transfer efficiency, lengthy screening process, and a lot of manpower and material resources. In addition, because the chloroplast genome is small and the gene density is high, the foreign genes are generally inserted into the genome by homologous recombination. Compared with the method of randomly inserting the nuclear genome into the nuclear genome, the efficiency of chloroplast transformation is low. a lot of.

As those of ordinary knowledge in the technical field to which the present invention is understood, the above term means not only a specific cell, but also a progeny or a potential progeny of the cell. Because of genetic mutations or environmental influences, there may be changes in subsequent generations, so the descendants of these cells will not be substantially the same as the cells of the parent, but they are still included in the scope of the term used herein.

本文中所稱「葉綠體訊息蛋白基因」係指一段核苷酸序列,在經過細胞核的轉錄、細胞質的轉譯後可合成出一訊息蛋白。此訊息蛋白會表現在蛋白質的一端,例如N端,此訊息蛋白包含了將蛋白質運送至葉綠體所需的導引訊息。如同「地址標籤」,此訊息蛋白能將蛋白質指引到葉綠體表面。而在葉綠體表面有一組特殊的傳送通道(Toc-Tic translocon),可辨識這個「地址標籤」,經辨識後,接受器會將含正確「地址標籤」的蛋白質轉運入葉綠體基質。在進入葉綠體基質後,這多出來的一段訊息蛋白便會被切除。The term "chloroplast signaling protein gene" as used herein refers to a nucleotide sequence that can be synthesized by transcription of the nucleus and translation of the cytoplasm. This information protein will appear at one end of the protein, such as the N-terminus. This information protein contains the guiding information needed to transport the protein to the chloroplast. Like the "address tag", this information protein can direct the protein to the surface of the chloroplast. On the surface of the chloroplast, there is a special transmission channel (Toc-Tic translocon), which can recognize this "address label". After recognition, the receiver will transfer the protein containing the correct "address label" into the chloroplast matrix. After entering the chloroplast matrix, this extra piece of signal protein will be excised.

本文中所稱「篩選基因」係用來確認前述載體是否有順利轉形(transform)進入宿主中。前述篩選基因可為但不限於:抗藥性篩選基因、非抗藥性篩選基因、或其組合。在一可行實施態樣中,前述篩選基因可為抗藥性篩選基因。舉例來說,前述抗藥性篩選基因可為卡那黴素或新黴素抗性基因。在此可行實施態樣中,順利轉形有前述載體的植物細胞(如,菸草或阿拉伯芥)便可以產生對卡那黴素或新黴素的抗性,而得以存活於含有卡那黴素或新黴素的環境。The "screening gene" referred to herein is used to confirm whether the aforementioned vector has successfully transformed into the host. The aforementioned screening gene may be, but not limited to, a drug resistance screening gene, a non-drug resistance screening gene, or a combination thereof. In a feasible embodiment, the aforementioned screening gene may be a drug resistance screening gene. For example, the aforementioned drug resistance screening gene may be a kanamycin or neomycin resistance gene. In this feasible embodiment, a plant cell (for example, tobacco or Arabidopsis) that has been transformed with the aforementioned vector can develop resistance to kanamycin or neomycin, and can survive in the presence of kanamycin. Or neomycin environment.

本文中所稱「非抗藥性篩選基因」係指非以對抗生素之抗性與否來確認轉形的基因。前述非抗藥性篩選基因例如但不限於:Phosphinothricin N‐acetyltransferase基因( barpat),其做為篩選基因可將含有殺草劑的成分草銨膦(glufosinate)或甲硫胺酸磺醯亞胺(methionine sulfoximine; MSO)等化合物進行乙醯基化而去掉其毒性,因此可以利用殺草劑譬如草銨膦等類化合物來進行轉基因植物的篩選。另外,突變或過量表現5‐enolpyruvoyl‐shikimate‐3‐phosphate synthetase (EPSPS) 基因可以不受到含有嘉賽磷(Glyphosate; N‐(phosphonomethyl)glycine)殺草劑的抑制,因此也可以做為篩選基因,利用殺草劑譬如嘉賽磷等來進行轉基因植物的篩選。 The term "non-drug resistance screening gene" as used herein refers to a gene that has not been confirmed by the resistance to antibiotics. The aforementioned non-drug resistance screening genes are, for example but not limited to, Phosphhinothricin N-acetyltransferase gene ( bar or pat ), which can be used as a screening gene to include the herbicide-containing components glufosinate or methionine sulfonamide (Methionine sulfoximine; MSO) and other compounds are acetylated to remove their toxicity, so herbicides such as glufosinate and other compounds can be used to screen transgenic plants. In addition, mutations or excessive performance of the 5‐enolpyruvoyl‐shikimate‐3‐phosphate synthetase (EPSPS) gene may not be inhibited by herbicides containing Glyphosate; N‐(phosphonomethyl)glycine), so it can also be used as a screening gene Utilizing herbicides such as glufosinate to screen transgenic plants.

Terms such as "cell incorporation" or "incorporated cells" refer to nucleic acids that are delivered outside the cell in the plant cell or its progeny cells, so the plant cell contains the nucleic acid outside the cell. The nucleic acid is fed into the cell, so that the nucleic acid can be combined with the chromosome in the form of fragments or replicated in the form of extrachromosomal elements, or the nucleic acid disrupts the expression of endogenous genes in the cell.

在一實施例中,迫使含有外源基因的載體進入農桿菌體內有兩種方式,即電穿孔法及三親雜交法。電穿孔法就是透過電擊農桿菌的方式,使其產生暫時性通透孔使載體進入農桿菌中。三親雜交法就是將含有特殊質體的大腸桿菌(稱為幫助者菌系)與含有外源基因的大腸桿菌,及含有幫助者質體的農桿菌三種菌類一起培養,含有外源基因的載體即會進入含有幫助者質體的農桿菌中。在一實施態樣中,進一步利用該含有外源基因載體的農桿菌,將外源基因送入目標細胞中,例如植物細胞。In one embodiment, there are 兩 ways to force the vector containing the foreign gene into Agrobacterium, namely electroporation and three-parent hybridization.

建構似轉錄活化因子核酸酶(Construction of transcription-like activator nuclease ( Transcription activator-like effector nuclease; TALENTranscription activator-like effector nuclease; TALEN )

TALEN是經由人為重組似轉錄活化因子(Transcription activator-like effector, TALE)的DNA辨識結合域和核酸內切酶活性區域而形成。TALE是由植物黃單胞菌( Xanthomonasbacteria)分泌的蛋白質,此蛋白質含有一個進核訊號(NLS)以及轉錄活化子,能幫助TALE蛋白從細胞質進入細胞核,然後專一性結合到宿主基因的啟動子,進而活化轉錄作用之進行。 TALEN is formed by the DNA recognition binding domain and endonuclease active region of artificial recombination transcription activator-like effector (TALE). TALE is a protein secreted by the plant Xanthomonas bacteria. This protein contains a nuclear entry signal (NLS) and transcription activator, which can help the TALE protein enter the nucleus from the cytoplasm and then specifically bind to the promoter of the host gene. , Which in turn activates transcription.

TALE的中間區域為多個串聯重複單元組成的串聯重複區,每個串聯重複單元一般含有34個胺基酸,其中第12和13位置的胺基酸之變異性高,被稱為重複可變區(repeat-variable diresidue,RVD)。每個串聯重複單元中的RVD可以辨認DNA的不同鹼基,並有簡單的一對一之對應關係。例如,RVD如果是NI(Asn-Ile)可辨認A,HD(His-Asp)可辨認C,NG(Asn-Gly)可辨認T,而NN(Asn-Asn)可辨認G/A。The middle area of TALE is a tandem repeating area composed of multiple tandem repeating units. Each tandem repeating unit generally contains 34 amino acids, of which the amino acids at positions 12 and 13 have high variability and are called repeatable variable District (repeat-variable diresidue, RVD). The RVD in each tandem repeat unit can identify different bases of DNA, and there is a simple one-to-one correspondence. For example, if RVD is NI (Asn-Ile) can recognize A, HD (His-Asp) can recognize C, NG (Asn-Gly) can recognize T, and NN (Asn-Asn) can recognize G/A.

另一方面,核酸內切酶活性區域可為Fok I核酸內切酶,而Fok I核酸內切酶需形成二元體才可切割DNA。因此,目前可利用合成一對TALEN,以配對上任何所期望結合的DNA序列且特異性地用來切割其雙股DNA (Cermak et al., 2011)。On the other hand, the active region of the endonuclease can be Fok I endonuclease, and Fok I endonuclease needs to form a binary body to cut DNA. Therefore, it is currently possible to synthesize a pair of TALENs to match any desired DNA sequence and specifically use it to cut its double-stranded DNA (Cermak et al., 2011).

在一實施例中,使用者可根據其目標基因設計重組TALEN蛋白域,使重組TALEN蛋白域中之重複可變區可辨識目標核酸序列。舉例而言,重組TALEN蛋白域可包含如SEQ ID NO: 21或SEQ ID NO: 22所示之序列,其中重複可變區以「NNNNNN」表示,亦即N可選自於A、T、C及G中任一個,以使所表現出的重複可變區為可辨認A之NI(Asn-Ile),可辨認C之HD(His-Asp),可辨認T之NG(Asn-Gly),或可辨認G或A之NN(Asn-Asn)。在一實施例中,設計一對細胞核基因轉殖載體,如圖1所示,pTpTalen-L和pTpTalen-R中所編碼的Talen-L與Talen-R為一對TALEN基因。在一實施例中,設計pTpTalen-L和pTpTalen-R中Talen-L與Talen-R的序列,使其轉譯後的蛋白質可辨識阿拉伯芥或菸草的葉綠體 rpoB基因序列。 In one embodiment, the user can design the recombinant TALEN protein domain according to his target gene, so that the repeated variable region in the recombinant TALEN protein domain can recognize the target nucleic acid sequence. For example, the recombinant TALEN protein domain may include the sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 21 or SEQ ID NO: 22, wherein the repeating variable region is represented by "NNNNNN", that is, N may be selected from A, T, C And any one of G, so that the repeated variable regions shown are NI (Asn-Ile) recognizable A, HD (His-Asp) recognizable C, and NG (Asn-Gly) recognizable T, Or the NN (Asn-Asn) of G or A can be recognized. In one embodiment, a pair of nuclear gene transfer vectors are designed. As shown in FIG. 1, Talen-L and Talen-R encoded in pTpTalen-L and pTpTalen-R are a pair of TALEN genes. In one embodiment, the sequences of Talen-L and Talen-R in pTpTalen-L and pTpTalen-R are designed so that the translated protein can recognize the chloroplast rpoB gene sequence of Arabidopsis or tobacco.

設計design TALENTALEN 欲作用於葉綠體基因之目標序列Target sequence to act on chloroplast gene

在本實施例中,以菸草葉綠體 rpoB基因為例子,根據其序列設計Talen-L與Talen-R。 rpoB基因位於葉綠體 DNA 的 rpoB-rpoCl-rpoC2的操作基因組 (Operon) (Little et al., 1988;Inada et al., 1996;Hajdukiewicz et al., 1997)。而根據先前研究顯示,若將 rpoB基因自菸草的葉綠體 DNA 中剔除,雖仍有細胞核編碼的 RNA 合成酶維持部分葉綠體的功能,不會造成植株死亡,但會促使菸草形成白色的外表性狀,且生長發育也比正常的菸草植株來得緩慢 (Allison et al., 1996)。由於其較易於觀察,因此選擇 rpoB基因作為 TALENs進行葉綠體基因編輯的目標基因。 In this example, taking the tobacco chloroplast rpoB gene as an example, Talen-L and Talen-R are designed according to their sequences. The rpoB gene is located in the operational genome (Operon) of rpoB-rpoCl-rpoC2 of chloroplast DNA (Little et al., 1988; Inada et al., 1996; Hajdukiewicz et al., 1997). According to previous research, if the rpoB gene is removed from the chloroplast DNA of tobacco, although RNA synthetase encoded by the nucleus still maintains part of the chloroplast function, it will not cause plant death, but it will promote tobacco to form a white appearance. Growth and development are also slower than normal tobacco plants (Allison et al., 1996). Because it is easier to observe, the rpoB gene was selected as the target gene for chloroplast gene editing of TALENs.

首先,自NCBI資料庫下載阿拉伯芥與菸草的 rpoB基因序列 (Accession number 分別是 NC_000932.1 和 NC_001879.2) 進行序列比對,擷取一段具有共同保留性較高的序列,並藉由TAL Effector Nucleotide Targeter 2.0 (https://talent.cac.corne-ll.edu/node/add/talen) 網頁設計 TALENs 的目標位。在一實施態樣中,選擇Talen-L與Talen-R所辨識的目標DNA序列分別為 5’-TCCAAAAATTGAA-3’(SEQ ID NO: 11) 與 5’- TAATTGAAATTCA -3’(SEQ ID NO: 12)。 First, download the rpoB gene sequences (Accession numbers NC_000932.1 and NC_001879.2, respectively) from Arabidopsis and Tobacco from the NCBI database, and perform sequence alignment to extract a sequence with high common retention and use TAL Effector Nucleotide Targeter 2.0 (https://talent.cac.corne-ll.edu/node/add/talen) The goal of TALENs for web design. In one embodiment, the target DNA sequences identified by Talen-L and Talen-R are 5'-TCCAAAAATTGAA-3' (SEQ ID NO: 11) and 5'-TAATTGAAATTCA-3' (SEQ ID NO: 12).

TALEN gene, so that the RVD sequences of the repeated variable regions that are translated are N'-HD-HD-NI-NI-NI-NI-NI-NG-NG-NN-NI-NI-C' and N'-NI-NI-NG-NG-NN-NI-NI-NI-NG-NG-HD-NI-C', which can specifically recognize and bind to the above target DNA sequences SEQ ID NO: 11 and SEQ ID NO: 12 . In one embodiment, according to the instructions of the Golden Gate TALEN assembly kit, the construction of the aforementioned RVD sequence needs to be divided into the front section and the rear section, which are named pTALEN-L1, pTALEN-L2, pTALEN-R1, and pTALEN-R2, and The RVD sequences are N'-HD-HD-NI-NI-NI-NI-NI-C', N'-NI-NG-NG-NG-NN-NI-C', N'-NI-NI-NG-NG- NN-NI-C' and N'-NI-NI-NG-NG-HD-C'.

分析轉殖植物Analysis of transgenic plants

a. PCR分子檢測:a. PCR molecular detection:

根據前述實施例,培養獲得許多菸草轉殖品系,選擇其中6個轉殖品系M0、M11、M14、M17、M29及M42進行PCR擴增放大,藉此檢測外源基因(TpTalen-L與TpTalen-R)是否同時插入菸草DNA中。According to the foregoing embodiment, many tobacco transgenic lines were obtained through cultivation, and six transgenic lines M0, M11, M14, M17, M29, and M42 were selected for PCR amplification and amplification, thereby detecting foreign genes (TpTalen-L and TpTalen- R) Whether it is inserted into tobacco DNA at the same time.

在一實施態樣中,利用Plant genomic DNA mini kit (Geneaid,Taiwan)萃取植物葉片組織DNA。首先,秤取0.1 g 植物葉片組織,並以液態氮研磨成粉末。加入400 μL GP1 buffer 與5 μL RNase A 混合後移至1.5 mL 微量離心管中,並以60 °C加熱10 分鐘,並於此時預熱 Elution buffer (200 μL /sample) 備用。再加入100 μL GP2 buffer 混合均勻後,置於冰上3 分鐘。將植物組織液移到 Filter column 中並以轉速1,000 xg 離心1 分鐘。將濾液移至新的1.5 mL 微量離心管,再加入1.5 倍體積的 GP3 buffer,並震盪5 秒。將700 μL 植物組織混合液移至 GD column 中並以轉速14,000 xg 離心2 分鐘後,移除濾液,重複此步驟,直至把植物組織混合液離完。加入400 μL W1 buffer 至 GD column 中並以轉速14,000 xg 離心30 秒後,移除濾液。加入600 μL Wash buffer 至 GD column 中並以轉速14,000 xg 離心30 秒後,移除濾液。再以14,000 xg 離心3 分鐘,取出管柱置於新的1.5 mL 微量離心管。於管柱膜上加入50~100 μL 之 Elution buffer,靜置5 分鐘,以14,000 xg 離心30秒,使 DNA 溶液自管柱中濾出,並收集至1.5 ml 微量離心管中,置於-20 °C保存。In one embodiment, Plant genomic DNA mini kit (Geneaid, Taiwan) is used to extract DNA from plant leaf tissue. First, weigh 0.1 g of plant leaf tissue and grind it into powder with liquid nitrogen. Add 400 μL GP1 buffer and 5 μL RNase A, mix and move to a 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tube, and heat at 60 °C for 10 minutes. At this time, preheat the Elution buffer (200 μL /sample) for use. Add 100 μL of GP2 buffer and mix well, then place on ice for 3 minutes. Transfer the plant tissue fluid to the Filter column and centrifuge at 1,000 xg for 1 minute. Move the filtrate to a new 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tube, add 1.5 times the volume of GP3 buffer, and shake for 5 seconds. Transfer 700 μL of plant tissue mixture to the GD column and centrifuge at 14,000 xg for 2 minutes. Remove the filtrate and repeat this step until the plant tissue mixture is separated. Add 400 μL W1 buffer to the GD column and centrifuge at 14,000 xg for 30 seconds, then remove the filtrate. Add 600 μL Wash buffer to the GD column and centrifuge at 14,000 xg for 30 seconds, then remove the filtrate. Centrifuge at 14,000 xg for 3 minutes, remove the column and place in a new 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tube. Add 50~100 μL of Elution buffer to the column membrane, let it stand for 5 minutes, centrifuge at 14,000 xg for 30 seconds to filter the DNA solution from the column, and collect it in a 1.5 ml microcentrifuge tube and place it at -20 Store at °C.

接著,將對照組(WT)與轉殖菸草的DNA(150 ng)以一對引子Check-F (SEQ ID NO: 5;AATTCACTCATTGGATTCATAGAAG)與Check-R (SEQ ID NO: 6;CTGTAGCCGAGCGTGCGTAG)進行PCR,以確認外源基因(TpTalen-L與TpTalen-R)是否同時插入菸草DNA中。PCR 的反應溫度與時間的三階段條件為,第一階段以95 °C反應2 分鐘。第二階段分成三部分,先以95 °C反應30 秒進行 Denaturation,再以61 °C反應30 秒進行 Annealing,再以72 °C反應反應45 秒進行 Elongation。而此階段約重複45 次。第三階段則以72 °C反應5分鐘。再使用2.2%的瓊膠,以100 伏特40 分鐘進行電泳分離。Next, PCR was performed on the control group (WT) and the DNA (150 ng) of the transferred tobacco with a pair of primers Check-F (SEQ ID NO: 5; AATTCACTCATTGGATTCATAGAAG) and Check-R (SEQ ID NO: 6; CTGTAGCCGAGCGTGCGTAG). To confirm whether the foreign genes (TpTalen-L and TpTalen-R) are inserted into tobacco DNA at the same time. The three-stage condition of PCR reaction temperature and time is that the first stage reacts at 95 °C for 2 minutes. The second stage is divided into three parts, first react at 95 °C for 30 seconds for Denaturation, then at 61 °C for 30 seconds for Annealing, then at 72 °C for 45 seconds for Elongation. This stage is repeated about 45 times. In the third stage, the reaction was carried out at 72 °C for 5 minutes. Then use 2.2% agar and perform electrophoretic separation at 100 volts for 40 minutes.

電泳結果如圖2 B部分所顯示,在這6個不同轉殖品系的電泳結果中都可以同時偵測到452 bp及482bp的PCR產物,即Talen-L和Talen-R基因皆同時表現於6個轉殖品系中,而WT中則無偵測到Talen-L和Talen-R基因。這就表示已成功轉殖Talen-L和Talen-R基因至菸草中。The electrophoresis results are shown in Part B of Figure 2. In the electrophoresis results of these six different transgenic lines, PCR products of 452 bp and 482 bp can be simultaneously detected, that is, the Talen-L and Talen-R genes are simultaneously expressed in 6 Among the transgenic lines, Talen-L and Talen-R genes were not detected in WT. This means that the Talen-L and Talen-R genes have been successfully transformed into tobacco.

b. 觀察轉殖植物之外表性狀:b. Observe the external traits of the transformed plants:

觀察不同轉殖植物品系與對照組間之外表性狀與生長發育情況之差異。結果如圖3顯示,轉殖植物的外表性狀和生長發育呈現多樣性。部分品系轉殖植物無任何外表性狀,部分品系轉殖植物的葉片呈現斑點狀白化或局部區域白化(如M29),或整個葉片白(黃)化(如M11、M17),而有些轉殖植物為全株白化(淡黃色)的植株(如M0)。此外,轉殖植物之生長發育也有不同程度的遲緩。如先前研究報導,當菸草葉綠體 rpoB基因發生變異,會導致植物產生白化的外表性狀 (Allison et al., 1996)。因此,推測轉殖植物白化程度的差異可能與重組TALEN蛋白表現在轉殖植物葉片的量有關,而造成葉綠體 rpoB基因受到不同程度的破壞而導致葉片產生這些不同程度的外表性狀。 Observe the difference in appearance and growth between different transgenic plant lines and the control group. The results are shown in Figure 3, the appearance and growth of the transgenic plants are diverse. Some lines of transgenic plants do not have any appearance traits. The leaves of some lines of transgenic plants are spotted or partially whitened (such as M29), or the entire leaves are white (yellow) (such as M11, M17), while some of the transformed plants It is an all-albino (light yellow) plant (such as M0). In addition, the growth and development of transgenic plants are also delayed to varying degrees. As reported in previous studies, when the rpoB gene of the tobacco chloroplast changes, it will cause the plant to produce albino appearance (Allison et al., 1996). Therefore, it is speculated that the difference in the degree of albinism of the transgenic plants may be related to the amount of recombinant TALEN protein expressed in the leaves of the transgenic plants, which caused the chloroplast rpoB gene to be damaged to varying degrees and caused the leaves to produce these different degrees of appearance traits.

c. 高解析度解離分析葉綠體 rpoB基因的突變: c. High-resolution dissociation analysis of chloroplast rpoB gene mutations:

為研究造成植物白化性狀的產生是否與葉綠體 rpoB基因的變異有關。因此選擇2個不同轉殖品系(M11和M17)的白化葉片組織,萃取DNA後,利用一對引子(SEQ ID NO: 7; GGATTTAATCAGATACAATTTGAAG)和 (SEQ ID NO: 8;TTCCAAATTAATCCCGCGGATAC)進行定量PCR(Q-PCR, Fast Evagreen ®qPCR Master Mixer, Biotium),以擴增放大重組TELEN蛋白作用於 rpoB基因的附近DNA序列(預期PCR產物大小為229 bp),並將PCR產物進行高解析度解離分析(high resolution melting; HRM)分析後,與對照組(正常菸草)比較,觀察DNA序列是否有所變異。 To investigate whether the generation of plant albino traits is related to the variation of chloroplast rpoB gene. Therefore, the albino leaf tissues of two different transgenic lines (M11 and M17) were selected. After DNA extraction, a pair of primers (SEQ ID NO: 7; GGATTTAATCAGATACAATTTGAAG) and (SEQ ID NO: 8; TTCCAAATTAATCCCGCGGATAC) were used for quantitative PCR (Q -PCR, Fast Evagreen ® qPCR Master Mixer, Biotium) to amplify and amplify the recombinant TELEN protein in the vicinity of the rpoB gene DNA sequence (the expected PCR product size is 229 bp), and the PCR product is subjected to high resolution dissociation analysis (high After resolution melting (HRM) analysis, compare with the control group (normal tobacco) to observe whether the DNA sequence has changed.

Both Q-PCR and HRM are operated using Roche Light Cycler ® Nano. First, use 95 °C for 180 seconds, followed by a two-step cycle step, each cycle of 95 °C denature 10 seconds and 60 °C annexing/extension 50 seconds, after 45 cycles, and then 95°C for 60 seconds to completely unwind the double-stranded DNA, followed by treatment at 40°C for 60 seconds to form a heterozygous structure, and finally gradually heated from 65°C to 95° at 0.05 per second C Perform HRM analysis.

結果如圖4顯示,轉殖植物的白色葉片組織(M11-W和M17-W)與對照組相比,有明顯的熔解曲線之差異,這就表示在這 2個轉殖品系的 rpoB基因有發生核苷酸之變異。 The results are shown in Figure 4. Compared with the control group, the white leaf tissues (M11-W and M17-W) of the transgenic plants have obvious melting curve differences, which means that the rpoB genes in these two transgenic lines have Nucleotide variation occurs.

d. 葉綠體 rpoB基因的定序分析: d. Sequencing analysis of chloroplast rpoB gene:

為研究重組TALEN蛋白在轉殖植物的表現是否最後造成葉綠體rpoB序列的突變,因此萃取對照組(WT)和4個不同轉殖品系(M0, M11, M17 和M29)的葉片組織,其中M11和M17品系植物的DNA又分別萃取自白色(M11-W和M17-W)和綠色(M11-G和M17-G)的葉片組織。以一對引子(SEQ ID NO: 9;AGCAGAAGTCTGTTTCTAGGGATGT)和(SEQ ID NO: 10;TAGCTGATGATAGAACTAGAATA)利用PCR去擴增放大重組TALEN蛋白作用於 rpoB基因的附近序列,並將PCR產物進行定序,將定序結果利用CLC Genomics Workbench 9.5.2 軟體進行多重序列比對。 In order to investigate whether the performance of the recombinant TALEN protein in the transgenic plants finally caused the mutation of the chloroplast rpoB sequence, the leaf tissues of the control group (WT) and 4 different transgenic lines (M0, M11, M17 and M29) were extracted, among which M11 and The DNA of the M17 strain plants is extracted from the leaf tissues of white (M11-W and M17-W) and green (M11-G and M17-G), respectively.

The sequence results were compared using CLC Genomics Workbench 9.5.2 software.

結果如圖5顯示,在轉殖品系M0,M11,M17和M29的白色或黃化葉片組織(M0, M11-W, M17-W, M29)的 rpoB-295位置明顯有發生A突變至T的情形,如箭頭所指處。但是在M11和M17的綠色葉片組織(M11-G,M17-G)的 rpoB基因序列則與對照組相同。這就表示,透過pTpTalen-L及pTpTalen-R對菸草進行轉殖,可針對特定葉綠體基因進行突變,例如葉綠體 rpoB基因的突變,進而導致植物外表性狀的改變。 The results shown in Figure 5 show that the mutation of A to T is apparent in the rpoB- 295 position of the white or yellow leaf tissues (M0, M11-W, M17-W, M29) of the transgenic lines M0, M11, M17 and M29. The situation, as indicated by the arrow. However, the rpoB gene sequence of green leaf tissues (M11-G, M17-G) in M11 and M17 was the same as that in the control group. This means that the transformation of tobacco through pTpTalen-L and pTpTalen-R can mutate specific chloroplast genes, such as the mutation of the chloroplast rpoB gene, which in turn leads to changes in plant appearance.
