TransformaÃÃo genÃtica de plantas de fumo (Nicotiana tabacum var. Xanthi) com a seqÃÃncia CV1887 de Chromobacterium violaceum / Genetic transformation of tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum var. Xanthi) with the sequence CV1887 from Chromobacterium violaceum

Conselho Nacional de Desenvolvimento CientÃfico e TecnolÃgico / FundaÃÃo de Amparo à Pesquisa do Estado do Cearà / A transformaÃÃo genÃtica de plantas atualmente representa uma importante ferramenta para investigaÃÃo da funÃÃo de genes de diversas origens como plantas, fungos, vÃrus, nematÃides e bactÃrias, sendo os de origem bacteriana os mais representativos. Dentro desse contexto, seqÃÃncias codificando para domÃnios contendo repetiÃÃes YD (tirosina- Ãcido aspÃrtico), que possuem similaridades com proteÃnas nematicidas, foram previamente detectadas no genoma de Chromobacterium violaceum estirpe ATCC 12472. Dentre essas seqÃÃncias, a ORF CV1887 (4.155 pb) foi selecionada para clonagem e expressÃo no sistema heterÃlogo, objetivando validar a atividade determinada in silico na anotaÃÃo do genoma de C. violaceum. A estratÃgia experimental consistiu em clonar as seqÃÃncias completa (4.155 pb) e parcial (2.642 pb) da ORF CV1887 no vetor binÃrio pBI121. Os vetores recombinantes foram introduzidos em cÃlulas de Agrobacterium tumefaciens estirpe LBA4404, por eletroporaÃÃo. Empregando-se o sistema de agroinfecÃÃo, segmentos foliares de Nicotiana tabacum var. Xanthi foram transformados e usados como propÃgulos para regeneraÃÃo dos transformantes primÃrios. A confirmaÃÃo da transformaÃÃo genÃtica foi feita por reaÃÃo da polimerase em cadeia (PCR), sendo usado como molde, o DNA genÃmico extraÃdo de clones selecionados em meio de cultura contendo canamicina. Pela visualizaÃÃo das bandas no gel de agarose, dos 19 clones selecionados de CV1887 parcial, 84% apresentaram bandas no tamanho aproximado de 2.642 pb e dos 13 clones selecionados de CV1887 completo, 78% apresentaram bandas no tamanho aproximado de 4.155 pb. Para a anÃlise da expressÃo, foram selecionados trÃs clones transformados com a seqÃÃncia CV1887 parcial, dois clones transformados com a seqÃÃncia CV1887 completa, trÃs clones transformados com o gene repÃrter gus, que codifica para a enzima β-glucoronidase, e dois clones de plantas controle nÃo transformadas. O RNA extraÃdo dos clones selecionados foi utilizado em uma reaÃÃo de RT-PCR para a sÃntese do cDNA e amplificaÃÃo das seqÃÃncias correspondentes. Os produtos da amplificaÃÃo foram analisados por meio de eletroforese em gel de agarose, constatando-se a presenÃa de bandas no tamanho aproximado de 2.642 pb para os trÃs clones transformados com a seqÃÃncia CV1887 parcial e no tamanho de 1.812 pb para os trÃs clones transformados com gus, confirmando-se a presenÃa dessas seqÃÃncias nas cÃlulas transformadas. NÃo foi confirmada a presenÃa, nos clones transformados, da seqÃÃncia CV1887 completa. / The genetic transformation of plants represents today an important tool to investigate the function of genes of diverse origins like plants, fungi, virus, nematodes and bacteria. Those that come from bacteria are the most representative ones. Within this context, sequences coding to domains containing YD (tyrosine - asparatate) repetitions, that have similarities with nematicide proteins, were detected in the Chromobacterium violaceum strain ATCC 12472 genome. Among these sequences, the ORF CV1887 (4.155 bp) was selected for cloning and expression in the heterologous system, in the attempt to validate its activity determined in silico in the C. violaceum genome's annotation. The experimental strategy consisted in cloning the complete (4.155 bp) and the partial sequence (2.642 bp) of the ORF in the binary vector pBI121. The recombinant vectors w ere introduced in Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 cells by electroporation. By utilizing agroinfection system, leaves segments of Nicotiana tabacum var. Xanthi were transformed and used as propagles for regeneration of the firsts transformants. Th e confirmation of the genetic transformation was achieved by PCR with the genomic DNA extracted from of the selected clones, followed of a PCR reaction. The visualization of bands in the agarose gel electrophoresis showed that from the 19 clones with the p artial sequence cv1887 that were selected, 84% showed bands with approximate size of 2.642 bp, and from the 13 clones with the complete sequence CV1887 that were selected, 78% showed bands with approximate size of 4.155 bp. For the expression analysis, the following were selected: three transformed clones with partial sequence CV1887, two transformed clones with complete sequence CV1887, three clones transformed with the reporter gene gus, which encodes for the enzyme b - glucoronidase, and two control clone s of non - transformed plants. The RNA from the selected clones was used in a RT - PCR reaction for cDNA synthesis and amplification of the corresponding sequences. The products of the amplification were analyzed in an agarose gel electrophoresis, showing the presence of bands with 2.642 bp for the three clones transformed with partial sequence CV1887 and 1.812 bp for the three clones transformed with gus and it is confirmed the presence of these sequences in the transformed cells. It was not confirmed the pres ence in transformed clones, the complete sequence CV1887.
