Abstract

Calli were induced from the petiole explants of Pimpinella brachycarpa on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.1 mg/L BA after four weeks of culture. Compact clusters of small and dense cells among these calli were selected and suspension-cultured as the source of embryogenic calli. When transferred to MS medium with 0.1 mg/L NAA, the suspension-cultured cells grew to embryogenic callus. Somatic embryos derived from these embryogenic calli developed into plantlets. The cDNA library was constructed in the embryogenic callus and in order to screen the cDNA library, these cDNAs were plated at a density 1.5 $\times$ 10^5 plaques per 15 cm petridish. Among 19 clones showing preferential hybridization with petiole HD-Zip gene, five clones were obtained after second screening. Four clones among them, were highly homologous to P. brachycarpa shoot-tip Phz4 gene, but one clone, Phc5 was about 1.5 kb which has an extra 163 bp to 5' upstream of Phz4. The Phc5 was 1,531 bp containing poly A tails of 18 bases. ATG start codon for Phc5, was located at position 284 with an open reading frame of 906 by which encodes a polypeptide of 302 amino acids. The Phc5 protein revealed that the polypeptides between 135 and 195 contain a homeodomain as the `leucine zipper' motif.

참나물 (Pimpinella brachycarpa)의 엽병 (petiole)절편체로부터 캘러스가 MS배지 (0.5mg/L 2,4-D와 0.1mg/L BAP)에서 유도되었으며 이들 캘러스로부터 치밀하게 배열된 세포집단(cell cluster)을 선발하여 현탁배양하였다. 이들 현탁배양세포들은 0.1 mg/L NAA가 포함된 MS고체배지에 배양되어 배발생 (embryogenic) 캘러스로 성장하였다. 배발생캘러스는 연한 노란색을 띠며 체세포배로 분화되었으며 이들 체세포배는 MS액체배지에서 발아되어 식물체로 성장하였다. 참나물 현탁배양세포 유래 배발생캘러스로부터 분리한 mRNA로부터 cDNA library를 합성하여 PCR을 수행한 결과 제조된 library의 삽입절편의 크기가 대부분 500bp이상임을 확인하였다. 이들 cDNA library로부터 전체 1.5 $\times$$10^{6}$개의 plaque를 혼성화하여 일차의 screening을 통해 19개의 cDNA clone을, 이차의 screening을 통해 5개의 cDNA clone을 얻었으며 이중 4개의 cDNA clone은 참나물 shoot의 HD-Zip 유전자인 Phz4 유전자와 동일한 약 1.4 kb 정도인 것으로 나타났으나, 1개의 cDNA clone, Phc5는 약 1.5kb정도의 크기를 나타내었다. 1.5kb인 Phc5는 Phz4유전자의 5'쪽으로 163bp의 염기가 추가로 발견되어 총 1,531 bp에 해당하였으며 18개의 polyA tail을 가지고 있었다. Phc5는 284번째에 ATG개시코돈이 있고 302개의 아미노산을 암호화하는 906개의 단백질 암호화 부위와 Homeodomain을 갖고 있었다. Phc5로부터 추정된 단백질은 기존 전사조절자에서 많이 보고된 HD의 구조적 특징을 갖고 있었다.
