By using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) technology, the key enzyme GeCYP714A1 gene involved in GA deactivation was cloned. Bioinformatics analysis on the GeCYP714A1 gene was carried out by using ExPASy, SWISS-MODEL, MEGA, etc., and its expression levels in different parts of G. elata were determined. The results showed that after Tis108 treatment, GA content in G. elata tuber was significantly increased, and the transcription level of the GeCYP714A1 gene was significantly decreased. The full length of the coding region of the GeCYP714A1 gene is 1 173 bp, encoding 390 amino acids. The protein has a molecular weight of 44.85 kDa, a theoretical isoelectric point of 9.83, an instability index of 49.20, an aliphatic index of 89.03, and a grand average of hydropathicity of-0.235, classifying it as an unstable, basic, hydrophilic protein, and the GeCYP714A1 protein was localized in the mitochondria, lacking a signal peptide and a transmembrane structure. Phylogenetic tree analysis revealed that GeCYP714A1 was most closely related to the DcCYP714C2(PKU78454.1) protein from Dendrobium candidum, with a sequence identity of 67.25%. The qRT-PCR analysis of the expression patterns of the GeCYP714A1 gene indicated that GeCYP714A1 had the highest transcription level in G. elata tuber, followed by stem and inflorescence. The study represented that Tis108 inhibited the transcription level of GeCYP714A1 involved in GA deactivation in G. elata tuber, thereby increasing the accumulation of GA and affecting the growth of G. elata tuber. These results provided a basis for further studies of strigolactone regulation of GA signal and tuber development in G. elata.</p>","PeriodicalId":52437,"journal":{"name":"Zhongguo Zhongyao Zazhi","volume":"49 15","pages":"4007-4014"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142300629","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Ten C57BL/6J mice were selected as the blank group. The blank group and model group were administrated with an equal volume of normal saline, and other groups were administrated with corresponding drugs once a day for 12 weeks. At the end of drug intervention, hematoxylin-eosin(HE) staining was employed to observe the pathological changes of fat in the aorta, liver, and epididymis of mice, and the proportion of aortic plaque area, fat area in epididymis, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease activity score(NAS) were calculated. Lipid and collagen deposition in the aorta was observed by oil red O staining and Masson staining, respectively, and the proportions of lipid and collagen deposition areas were calculated.
