Abstract:

The total RNA extracted from flax stems was used for RT-PCR, then the full-length open reading frame (ORF) sequence of glycosyltransferase gene (LuUGT72E1) was amplified. The sequence analysis showed that the full-length ORF of LuUGT72E1 consisted of 1 476bp, encoding 491 amino acids. Homology analysis of the deduced amino acid showed 99% identity to UGT72N2 from flax and 58% to 51% identity to UGT72E1 from Populus trichocarpa, Eucalyptus grandis, Manihot esculenta, Gossypium raimondii and Arabidopsis thaliana. The phylogeny analysis showed that this protein clustered with UGT72E1~3 from Arabidopsis and might play key roles in the process of monolignols glucosylation. The gene expression profiling showed that LuUGT72E1 gene could be induced by BR and Brz. This study could provide candidate genes for fibre improvementin flax.
