摘要: 小菜蛾是为害十字花科蔬菜的重要害虫, 干扰其嗅觉识别功能是实现小菜蛾有效治理的重要途径。本研究克隆并鉴定了1个小菜蛾气味结合蛋白基因, 命名为PxylOBP13(GenBank登录号为KT156679);该基因开放阅读框全长387bp, 编码128个氨基酸;预测蛋白分子量为14.33KDa, 等电点为7.55, N端无信号肽序列, 有3个疏水性区域, 具有气味结合蛋白家族的保守结构域和6个保守的半胱氨酸残基, 与6种鳞翅目昆虫的气味结合蛋白氨基酸序列一致性达50%以上。研究结果可为进一步研究小菜蛾气味结合蛋白功能, 阐明小菜蛾嗅觉机制, 制定科学有效的治理措施提供依据。Abstract: The diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella (L.) is a key insect pest on cruciferous plants all over the world. Olfactory perception is critical for survival and reproduction in insects, and correspondingly provides a new target to control DBM. Hereby, an odorant binding protein (OBP) gene from P.xylostella,PxylOBP13 (GenBank accession number:KT156679) was cloned; the bio-information characteristics were analyzed; and a phylogenetic tree was constructed. The results showed that the full-length of open reading frame of PxylOBP13 is 387 bp and encodes 128 amino acids; PxylOBP13 contains 6 conserved cysteine residues and the conserved domain of odorant binding protein family, and 3 hydrophobic regions which are potential binding sites for hydrophobic odorants. The protein molecular mass was predicted as 14.33 kDa with an isoelectric point of 7.55, but the N-terminal without signal peptide; the similarity of sequence between PxylOBP13 and six lepidopteran insects can reach above 50%. The results can provide theoretical support for further research on the function of OBPs in DBM and development of effective management of DBM based on olfactory mechanism.
