植物瞬间表达系统与功能基因组学研究

Plant Transient Expression System in Functional Genomics

摘要:

结构基因组学和功能基因组学的发展使特定植物基因组和转录组序列的获取更为方便和快捷。随之而来的是对各种基因和调控序列的功能注释，探索植物生长和发育的遗传机理。表达和调控表达是遗传物质的自身语言和动态属性，因此通过植物细胞内表达来分析目标基因和序列的表达和调控行为是功能分析的主要立足点。除创造转基因植株外，近几年来植物细胞瞬间表达系统得到了广泛的使用，与基因重排、病毒诱导基因沉默和RNA干扰等新兴技术的结合使其在植物功能基因组研究中扮演了越来越重要的角色。

Abstract:

With the development of structural and functional genomics, nowadays specific plant genome and transcriptome sequences can be cloned much easier and faster. Next step is to identify the functions of different genes and regulating elements to unravel the genetic mechanisms behind plant growth and development. Expression and its regulation are the language and dynamic property of genetic material, so expression and regulation analysis of target genes and sequences in plant cell is the basis for function study. Besides stable genetic transformation, plant transient expression system gains broad application in recent years, and its combination with other new technologies as gene shuffling, VIGS and RNAi plays a more and more important role in plant functional genomics.
