RESUMO
The full-length coding sequence (cds) of jasmonate-zim-domain protein (AsJAZ1) gene was cloned from Aquilaria sinensis, the prokaryotic vector was constructed and the recombinant proteins expression was induced to provide the basic material for interactive proteins screen and gene function research. In this study, with the total RNA isolated from A. sinensis leave as template, the full-length cds of AsJAZ1 gene was amplified using RT-PCR method and subcloned into pET-28a vector. The recombinant plasmid identified by restriction enzyme digestion and nucleotide sequencing was transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). Inducing with 0.5 mmolâ¢L⻹ IPTG at 37 â for 4 hours, a fusion protein about 39 kDa was maximumly obtained. AsJAZ1 fusion protein had been expressed successfully mainly in the form of inclusion bodies and only a very small amount was secreted into the cytoplasm in the supernatant.

The study aimed to clone the open reading frame of cinnamate 4-hydroxylase (C4H) from Aquilaria sinensis and analyze the bioinformatics and expression of the gene. One unique sequence containing C4H domain was discovered in our previous reported wound transcriptome dataset of A. sinensis. The open reading frame of C4H was cloned by RT-PCR strategy with the template of mixed RNA extracted from A. sinensis stem which treated by different wound time. The bioinformatic analysis of this gene and its corresponding protein was performed. C4H expression profiles in responds to MeJA (methyl jasmonate) application were analyzed by real-time PCR. The length of C4H open reading frame (ORF) was 1 515 bp, encoding 514 amino acids. The GenBank accession number is KF134783. Inducible-experiments showed that the genes were induced by mechanical wound as well as MeJA induction, and reached the highest expression level at 8 h and 20 h, respectively. The full-length cDNA of C4H and its expression patterns will provide a foundation for further research on its function in the molecular mechanisms of aromatic compounds and flavonoids biosynthesis.
