摘要

第1内含子的缺失或此内含子的5^端剪接点上的碱基G以T替换均造成GUS活性的急剧下降,说明第1内含子在植株体内的确有增强基因表达的功能,而且在中、低直链淀粉含量的水稻品种中Wx基因第1内含子5^端剪接点上自然存在的G→T突变是造成这些品种中该内含子剪接不正常、从而使Wx基因表达水平和直链淀粉含量下降的主要原因。

Abstract

Results show that either the deletion of intron 1 or a single base mutation (G→T) at the 5^ splice site of Wx intron 1 decreased the expression of GUS gene. These results indicate that in vivo the intron 1 indeed enhances the gene expression, and the G→T mutation in Wx intron 1 of rice cultivars with intermediate/low amylose content is, probably the key factor causing abnormal splicing of this intron in these cultivars.

Key words: Wx gene;Intron 1;Gene expression
