The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Oryza sativa L.(B810S) was 134546 bp in length in the study, which contains 149 genes including 99 coding protein genes, 41 transfer RNA genes, 8 ribosomal RNA genes and 1 non-coding region by gene annotation. A total of 20879 amino acids were encoded by this cp genome, TTT (Phe) and TTG (Leu) codon were the most frequent amino acids, whereas the ACC (Thr), GCC (Ala), CTC (Leu), and AAC (Asn) codon were the least frequent ones. The content of the four bases on the cp genome were 30.6% for A, 30.4% for T, 19.4% for C and 19.6% for G, respectively. Obviously, the A+T (61.0%) content is more higher than G+C (39.0%). The gene order and content are the same as those of previously reported cp genome of Rice. Phylogenetic analysis was implemented based on concatenated amino acid sequences of 99 protein-coding genes using Neighbor-Joining method (NJ) method. Therefore, the complete B810S cp genome provides interesting insights and valuable information that can be used to identify related species and reconstruct its phylogeny. Bangladesh J.

By screening sequence reads from the chloroplast (cp) genome of S. suchowensis that generated by the next generation sequencing platforms, we built the complete circular pseudomolecule for its cp genome. This pseudomolecule is 155,508 bp in length, which has a typical quadripartite structure containing two single copy regions, a large single copy region (LSC 84,385 bp), and a small single copy region (SSC 16,209 bp) separated by inverted repeat regions (IRs 27,457 bp). Gene annotation revealed that the cp genome of S. suchowensis encoded 119 unique genes, including 4 ribosome RNA genes, 30 transfer RNA genes, 82 protein-coding genes and 3 pseudogenes. Analyzing the repetitive sequences detected 15 tandem repeats, 16 forward repeats and 5 palindromic repeats. In addition, a total of 188 perfect microsatellites were detected, which were characterized as A/T predominance in nucleotide compositions. Significant shifting of the IR/SSC boundaries was revealed by comparing this cp genome with that of other rosids plants. We also built phylogenetic trees to demonstrate the phylogenetic position of S. suchowensis in Rosidae, with 66 orthologous protein-coding genes presented in the cp genomes of 32 species. By sequencing 30 amplicons based on the pseudomolecule, experimental verification achieved accuracy up to 99.84% for the cp genome assembly of S. suchowensis. In conclusion, this study built a high quality pseudomolecule for the cp genome of S. suchowensis, which is a useful resource for facilitating the development of this shrub willow into a more productive bioenergy crop.

The genus Fritillaria has attracted great attention because of its medicinal and ornamental values. At least three reasons, including the accurate discrimination between various Fritillaria species, protection and sustainable development of rare Fritillaria resources as well as understanding of relationship of some perplexing species, have prompted phylogenetic analyses and development of molecular markers for Fritillaria species. Here we determined the complete chloroplast (CP) genomes for F. unibracteata, F. przewalskii, F. delavayi, and F. sinica through Illumina sequencing, followed by de novo assembly. The lengths of the genomes ranged from 151,076 in F. unibracteata to 152,043 in F. przewalskii. Those CP genomes displayed a typical quadripartite structure, all including a pair of inverted repeats (26,078 to 26,355 bp) separated by the large single-copy (81,383 to 81,804 bp) and small single-copy (17,537 to 17,569 bp) regions. Fritillaria przewalskii, F. delavayi, and F. sinica equivalently encoded 133 unique genes consisting of 38 transfer RNA genes, eight ribosomal RNA genes, and 87 protein coding genes, whereas F. unibracteata contained 132 unique genes due to absence of the rps16 gene. Subsequently, comparative analysis of the complete CP genomes revealed that ycf1, trnL, trnF, ndhD, trnN-trnR, trnE-trnT, trnN, psbM-trnD, atpI, and rps19 to be useful molecular markers in taxonomic studies owning to their interspecies variations. Based on the comprehensive CP genome data collected from 53 species in Fritillaria and Lilium genera, a phylogenomic study was carried out with three Cardiocrinum species and five Amana species as outgroups. The results of the phylogenetic analysis showed that Fritillaria was a sister to Lilium, and the interspecies relationships within subgenus Fritillaria were well resolved. Furthermore, phylogenetic analysis based on the CP genome was proved to be a promising method in selecting potential novel medicinal resources to substitute current medicinal species that are on the verge of extinction.

The three-domains tree, which depicts eukaryotes and archaebacteria as monophyletic sister groups, is the dominant model for early eukaryotic evolution. By contrast, the ‘eocyte hypothesis’, where eukaryotes are proposed to have originated from within the archaebacteria as sister to the Crenarchaeota (also called the eocytes), has been largely neglected in the literature. We have investigated support for these two competing hypotheses from molecular sequence data using methods that attempt to accommodate the across-site compositional heterogeneity and across-tree compositional and rate matrix heterogeneity that are manifest features of these data. When ribosomal RNA genes were analysed using standard methods that do not adequately model these kinds of heterogeneity, the three-domains tree was supported. However, this support was eroded or lost when composition-heterogeneous models were used, with concomitant increase in support for the eocyte tree for eukaryotic origins. Analysis of combined amino acid sequences from 41 protein-coding genes supported the eocyte tree, whether or not composition-heterogeneous models were used. The possible effects of substitutional saturation of our data were examined using simulation; these results suggested that saturation is delayed by among-site rate variation in the sequences, and that phylogenetic signal for ancient relationships is plausibly present in these data.

Transformasi gen Glu-1Dx5, pengendali utama karakter elastisitas dan daya mengembang adonan dari gandum, telah berhasil ditransfer ke dalam genom tanaman padi kultivar Fatmawati dengan menggunakan penembakan partikel, dengan tujuan untuk memperbaiki kualitas adonan tepung beras. Galur-galur harapan telah diperoleh, tetapi karena telah mengalami penyerbukan sendiri selama 1-2 generasi yang menyebabkan transgen mengalami segregasi, maka diperlukan upaya pendeteksian transgen pada populasi putative transgenik ini. Upaya ini dapat dilakukan, antara lain dengan menggunakan teknik Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) yang memungkinkan perbanyakan fragmen DNA yang spesifik (gen) secara cepat dalam jumlah banyak.  Percobaan ini bertujuan untuk mendapatkan tanaman padi transgenik yang memiliki gen Glu-1Dx5 pada dua generasi yang sedang bersegregasi. DNA genom dari 149 tanaman padi (generasi T1 sebanyak 14 tanaman, generasi T2 sebanyak 134 tanaman, dan satu tanaman non-transgenik) telah diekstraksi menggunakan Genomic DNA Purification Kit dari Fermentas. Plasmid pK+Dx5 digunakan sebagai positif kontrol, selain itu digunakan juga enzim Taq DNA polymerase dari Go Green Taq® Master Mix (Promega) dan 2 primer spesifik yang mengamplifikasi coding region dari Glu-1Dx5 (2,5 kb). Hasil percobaan menunjukkan, tanaman padi yang memiliki gen Glu-1Dx5 pada generasi T2-7 sebanyak 26 tanaman, T2-11 : 12 tanaman, T2-12 : 3 tanaman, T2-40 : 3 tanaman dan T2-45 : 5 tanaman. Seluruh tanaman generasi T1 tidak memiliki insert. Hasil ini menunjukkan bahwa gen Glu-1Dx5 sudah terintegrasi ke dalam genom tanaman padi kultivar Fatmawati dan diwariskan dari satu generasi ke generasi berikutnya.

Serendipity (sry) beta (beta) and delta (delta) are two finger protein genes resulting from a duplication event. Comparison of their respective protein products shows interspersed blocks of conserved and divergent amino-acid sequences. The most extensively conserved region corresponds to the predicted DNA-binding domain which includes 6 contiguous fingers; no significant sequence conservation is found upstream and downstream of the protein-coding region. We have analysed the evolutionary divergence of the sry beta and delta proteins on two separate levels, their embryonic pattern of expression and their DNA-binding properties in vitro and in vivo. By using specific antibodies and transformant lines containing beta-galactosidase fusion genes, we show that the sry beta and sry delta proteins are maternally inherited and present in embryonic nuclei at the onset of zygotic transcription, suggesting that they are transcription factors involved in this process. Zygotic synthesis of the sry beta protein starts during nuclear division cycles 12–13, prior to cellularisation of the blastoderm, while the zygotic sry delta protein is not detectable before germ band extension (stage 10 embryos). Contrary to sry delta, the zygotic sry beta protein constitutes only a minor fraction of the total embryonic protein. The sry beta and delta proteins made in E. coli bind to DNA, with partly overlapping specificities. Their in vivo patterns of binding to DNA, visualised by immunostaining polytene chromosomes, differ both in the number and position of their binding sites. Thus changes in expression pattern and DNA-binding specificity have contributed to the evolution of the sry beta and delta genes.

An almost full-length cDNA coding for pre-uteroglobin from hare lung was cloned and sequenced. The derived amino acid sequence indicated that hare pre-uteroglobin contained 91 amino acids, including a signal peptide of 21 residues. Comparison of the nucleotide sequence of hare pre-uteroglobin cDNA with that previously reported for the rabbit gene indicated five silent point substitutions and six others leading to amino acid changes in the coding region. The untranslated regions of both pre-uteroglobin mRNAs were very similar. The amino acid changes observed are discussed in relation to the different progesterone-binding abilities of both homologous proteins.

BIT/SHPS-1/SIRPα/P84 is a unique molecule with a high degree of homology with immune antigen recognition molecules (immunoglobulin, T-cell receptor and MHC), and is highly expressed in the brain. The extracellular region contains three immunoglobulin-like domains (V-type, C1-type and C1-type), and the intracellular region contains two signalling motifs that interact with SHP-2 protein tyrosine phosphatase. BIT-coated plates support cell-substrate adhesion and neurite extension of neurons, and BIT participates in neuronal signal transduction. Diversity of the V-type domain sequences of human BIT has been reported. In the present study we analysed the structure of the mouse BIT gene (Bit). The protein coding region consists of eight exons corresponding to a signal peptide, a V-type domain, a C1-type domain, a C1-type domain, a transmembrane region and three parts of one cytoplasmic region. The two signalling motifs are encoded in one exon. Four splicing forms of mouse BIT were revealed. We also found the sequence diversity in three mouse strains, namely BALB/c, 129/Sv and C57BL/6. The substitution patterns of amino acids and nucleotides indicate positive pressure to alter the amino acids in the V-type domain in evolution. Immunoblot analyses showed that mouse BIT and human BITα are predominantly expressed in the brain. On the bases of these findings we discuss the possibility that BIT contributes to the genetic individuality and diversity of the brain.

A study was conducted to reveal the characterization of the complete mitochondrial genome of Fischoederius elongatus derived from cows in Shanghai, China. Results indicated that the complete mt genome of F. elongatus was 14,288 bp and contained 12 protein-coding genes (cox1-3, nad1-6, nad4L, atp6, and cytb), 22 transfer RNA genes, and two ribosomal RNA genes (l-rRNA and s-rRNA). The overall A + T content of the mt genome was 63.83%, and the nucleotide composition was A (19.83%), C (9.75%), G (26.43%), and T (44.00%). A total of 3284 amino acids were encoded by current F. elongatus isolate mt genome, TTT (Phe) (9.84%) and TTG (Leu) (7.73%) codon were the most frequent amino acids, whereas the ACC (Thr) (0.06%), GCC (Ala) (0.09%), CTC (Leu) (0.09%), and AAC (Asn) (0.09%) codon were the least frequent ones. At the third codon position of F. elongatus mt protein genes, T (50.82%) was observed most frequently and C (5.85%) was the least one. The current results can contribute to epidemiology diagnosis, molecular identification, taxonomy, genetic, and drug development researches about this parasite species in cattle.

Phytochrome was isolated from etiolated rice seedlings (Oryza sativa L.) by slight modification of the procedure for oat phytochrome. Spectral data of rice phytochrome are comparable with those of oat and rye phytochrome. Controlled proteolysis with endoproteinases Lys-C and Glu-C yielded defined fragments some of which were different for Pr and Pfr. The fragments were identified by comparison with the corresponding fragments of oat phytochrome and by comparison of the amino acid sequences of rice and oat phytochrome. Regions of the peptide chain which are differently exposed in Pr and Pfr were identified. A highly conserved sequence around residues 740-750 is discussed as candidate for an ‘‘active center’’ of signal transduction.
