What is Expression analysis of a sucrose synthase gene from sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) about?

To investigate the expression pattern of sucrose synthase, a cDNA from tap roots of sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) was isolated using a heterologous sucrose synthase cDNA from potato. The 2762 bp long cDNA clone designated SB S S 1 encodes for a 822 amino acid polypeptide of a predicted molecular mass of 93.7 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence of sugar beet sucrose synthase has homologies of 65-70 ~o when compared to predicted amino acid sequences of sucrose synthases from other species. RNA blot analysis shows that SBS S 1 is expressed most predominant in tap root under normal growth conditions. Cold treatment and anaerobiosis lead to an increase in the steady-state levels of SB S S 1 mRNA in leaf and root tissue. In tap root slices, sugars in various concentrations had no influence on the SB S S 1 transcript level. On the other hand, wounding resulted in a decreased transcript level.
