Proline has been reported to be an osmoprotectant that confers tolerance to salinity in various plant species. A cDNA for ?1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (P5CS), a key enzyme involved in proline biosynthesis was isolated and characterized from E. camaldulensis (Dehnh.) (clone T5), now designated EuP5CS. The full-length EuP5CS gene has 2,944 bp containing an open reading frame of 2,142-bp that encodes for 713 amino acids. The deduced EuP5CS protein structure exhibited a high homology to the P5CS of other plant species, and was predicted to possess a glutamate 5-kinase domain at its N-terminal and a gamma-glutamyl phosphate reductase domain at its C-terminal. Semiquantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that the transcriptional expression level of the EuP5CS gene was considerably up-regulated by up to about 50% in response to NaCl treatments. This result indicated that EuP5CS is a salt-inducible gene and plays an important role in proline biosynthesis in E. camaldulensis clones subjected to salt stress. |
