摘要
A cDNA library from freshly isolated mesophyll protoplasts of Nicotiana sylvestris was differentially screened using cDNAs from leaves, leaf strips submitted to the same stress as protoplasts during the isolation procedure, and cell suspension cultures. One of the selected clones (6P2) was found to encode a putative polypeptide highly homologous to previously characterized 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductases. The C-terminal region of the polypeptide was highly conserved whereas its N-terminal region including the trans-membrane domains and the linker was more variable. Apart from protoplasts, the 6P2 gene was found to be expressed in apexes, anthers, roots, and in stressed leaf strips after 24 h of culture, during the hypersensitive reaction to viral infection and after HgCl2 treatment. This pattern of expression is consistent with a role in plant defence mechanisms.
