| Abstract | ∆12 fatty acid desaturase (FAD2) is a key enzyme for linoleic acid and linolenic acid biosynthesis. Perilla frutescens is a special oil plant species with highest linolenic acid content. In this study, based on RACE, two alleles for one FAD2 gene were isolated from P. frutescens cultivar C2: the 3956 bp PfFAD2a and the 3959 bp PfFAD2b, both with a full-length cDNA of 1526 bp, and both encoding a 382aa basic protein. The alleles have identities of over 98%, and their encoded proteins differ only by substitution of a strongly similar residue. Saccharomyces cerevisiae heterologous expression suggested that PfFAD2a/b both encode a bio-functional FAD2 enzyme. Phylogenetic analyses indicated that PfFAD2 shows the highest homologies to FAD2 genes from dicots such as Boraginaceae and Burseraceae. PfFAD2a/b expressions are mainly restricted to developing seeds. PfFAD2a/b expression in the seedling leaf is upregulated by cold (4 °C) and repressed by heat (42 °C). Each of the eight cultivars contains two alleles for one PfFAD2 and 40 SNP sites are found. One allelic gene in cultivars C1 and P1 is pseudogene because of premature stop codon mutation in 5′ coding region. All other normal PfFAD2 genes/allelic genes encode identical or very similar proteins. PfFAD2a/b expression level in developing seeds also varies among the eight cultivars. This study provides systemic molecular and functional features of PfFAD2 and enables its application in the study of plant fatty acids traits. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
