초록

식물의 광합성에 관여하는 광계 I의 protein subunit들의 연구는 최근까지도 극히 미약한 실정이며, 각각의 subunit들의 특성 또한 일부만이 밝혀져 있다. 본 연구진은 배추의 cDNA library로부터 식물에만 존재하는 subunit 중의 하나인, PSI-H subunit을 암호화하는 유전자인 bpsaH를 분리하였다. 이 유전자는 총 633 bp의 염기로 구성되어 있으며, 염기서열로부터 추정되는 분자량은 약 15,400이었고 등전점은 9.91이었다. 배추 PSI-H subunit의 아미노산 서열을 다른 식물체 유래의 단백질들과 비교분석한 결과, 시금치의 PSI-H와 가장 높은 유사성 (79.3%)을 나타내었다. 또한 bpsaH의 조직 특이적 발현 양상을 조사한 결과, 광합성 조직인 잎에서는 강하게 발현된 반면 꽃봉우리에서는 약하게 발현되었으며, 비광합성 조직인 뿌리에서는 전혀 발현되지 않았다.

PSI-H is an intrinsic membrane protein known to be essential for efficient electron flow in PSI complex. We isolated a cDNA clone encoding a PSI-H subunit homolog from Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris L.). The cDNA, designated bpsaH, had an insert of 435 bp and a full open reading frame that would encode a protein of 145 amino acids. The amino acid sequence deduced from the cDNA sequence is 79.3% identical to that of spinach, suggesting the cDNA most likely encodes Chinese cabbage PSI-H subunit. The bpasH was expressed at high level in leaf tissue and low level in flower bud, whereas it was undetectable in root tissue.
