چکیده

خانواده bZIP یکی از گسترده‌ترین عوامل رونویسی در گیاهان است که در پاسخ به تنش‌های زیستی و غیرزیستی نقش دارد. تنظیم بیان ژن در مرحله ترجمه بر اساس خصوصیات مولکول mRNA تعیین می‌شود که یکی از مهم‌ترین آن‌ها نواحی غیرترجمه شونده (UTR) هستند. در این مطالعه ویژگی‌های نواحی غیرترجمه شونده خانواده bZIP در گیاه جو (شامل 78 عضو) و اثر آن‌ها بر رونویسی و ترجمه، بر اساس روش­های بیوانفورماتیکی مورد بررسی قرار گرفت. بر اساس نتایج، میانگین طول ناحیه 5'-UTR کمتر و محتوای GC آن بیشتر از ناحیه 3'-UTR بود. زمینه کدون آغاز برای موقعیت 4+ در 23/49% از اعضا توسط گوانین و موقعیت 3- در 70/56% توسط نوکلئوتیدهای پورینی اشغال شده بود. در مجموع 18 نوع عناصر فعال سیس موثر در تنش‌های غیرزیستی به‌دست آمد که عوامل رونویسی تنظیم شونده توسط اسید جیبرلیک بیش‌ترین فراوانی را داشتند. ریبوزوم برای رسیدن به کدون آغاز 50 عضو باید انرژی بیش از Kcal/mol 50 صرف کند، اگرچه 23 عضو دارای نواحی داخلی برای ورود ریبوزوم (IRES) بودند. یک توالی هدف sRNA در توالی‌های 5'-UTR (HvbZIP4) و هم‌چنین 3'-UTR (HvbZIP44) مشاهده شد. 225 عدد توالی چهارچوب باز خواندنی (با حداقل طول 12 نوکلئوتید) در بالادست ناحیه رمزکننده اصلی مشاهده شد. شباهت قابل توجهی بین توالی چهارچوب باز خواندنی بالادست (چهارچوب 3+) در HvbZIP24 و یک پروتئین بالادست در Theobroma cacao (XM_007017561.1) مشاهده شد. به‌طور‌کلی، مولکول‌های mRNA اعضا این خانواده دارای ساختارهای متفاوت تنظیمی بودند، این امر راه‌حلی طبیعی برای کنترل دقیق میزان تولید این نوع پروتئین‌های تنظیمی است.

چکیده [English]

bZIP family is one of the most diverse transcription factors in plants playing critical roles in response to biotic and abiotic stresses. Regulation of gene expression at translation level is determined based on the mRNA features which untranslated regions (UTRs) are among the most important ones. In the present study, we attempted to survey the features of UTRs and their probable effect on transcription and translation of bZIP family in barley (78 members) through in silico approaches. Based on the results, mean length of 5´-UTRs were more than 3´-UTR but 5´-UTRs had more GC content. Context of initial codons had 49.23% guanine at +4 and 56.70% purine at -3 positions. Totally, 18 abiotic stress responsive Cis-acting elements were found which GA-regulated myb element was prevalent. Ribosome should consume more than 50 Kcal/mol energy to reach the start codon of 50 members. However, 23 members had Internal Ribosome Entry Site (IRES). sRNA targets were only detected in 5´-UTR (HvbZIP4) and in 3´-UTR(HvbZIP44). 225 Upstream Open Reading Frame (uORFs) were extracted where the minimum length was 12 nt. uORF of HvbZIP24 (at frame +3) was similar to an upstream protein of Theobroma cacao (XM_007017561.1). In general, mRNAs of the bZIP family in barley had different regulatory structures, which might be a natural solution for accurate regulation of these regulatory proteins.
