Abstract:

In this paper, the key enzyme gene cinnamic acid-4-hydroxylase (FtC4H) in the benzene propanes metabolic pathway of tartary buckwheat was cloned, laying a foundation for further research on its function. The RNA of Yunqiao 1 and Xiaomiqiao husks at different developmental stages was extracted, and the FtC4H gene from tartary buckwheat was cloned by RT-PCR, and the characteristics of FtC4H protein were analyzed by bioinformatics. The phylogenetic tree of FtC4H protein was constructed and analyzed FtC4H gene expression. The results showed that the cloned gene sequence had complete cDNA open reading frame of 1299bp, encoding 432 amino acids. FtC4H was a hydrophilic and unstable basic protein with P450 superfamily conserved domain and without transmembrane domain; The secondary structure of FtC4H was complex; the prediction of tertiary structure showed a high similarity with 6vby.1.A sequence. The results of phylogenetic analysis showed that the FtC4H cloned in this study was different from other C4H genes of tartary buckwheat reported. qRT-PCR showed that the relative expression level of FtC4H in the flowers and leaves of Xiaomiqiao were significant higher than that of Yunqiao 1.
