Abstract:

Obtaining the LaeA gene sequence of Ganoderma lucidum through electronic cloning,analyzing its gene sequence information and preliminarily exploring its regulatory function.This study adopts the method of electronic cloning,using the known LaeA protein sequence of Penicillium citrinum as a template,perform sequence similarity search and alignment(Blast)in the EST database of Ganoderma lucidum and obtain the cDNA sequence of the LaeA gene of Ganoderma lucidum through electronic cloning methods such as sequence splicing,sequence validation and sequence extension.Some characters of amino acids encoded by LaeA gene,including the physical and chemical properties,hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity,subcellular localization,secondary and tertiary structure of protein,and phylogenetic relationship were analyzed by bioinformatics tools.The length of LaeA gene from G.lucidum was 1 134 bp,encoded 378 amino acids.The protein encoded molecular weight of 42.895 3 ku.The protein was an instability protein that was present in the cytoplasm and not secreted to the extracellular.Furthermore,the structure of LaeA protein was mainly composed by 47.88% random coil,33.33%α-helix and 18.78% extension strand,contained SAM binding site,belonged to AdoMet_MTases superfamily proteins.Phylogenetic analysis showed that LaeA was closely related to white rot basidiomycetes such as Trametes versicolor and Dichomitus squalens;the Real-time Fluorescence Quantitative PCR results showed that the expression level of LaeA in Ganoderma lucidum cells during liquid static culture was significantly higher than in oscillatory culture.It is speculated that the LaeA protein as a methyltransferase protein that participates in histone methylation modification,thereby affecting the expression level of gene clusters.
