The Medicago truncatula NIP gene is located on M. truncatula Linkage Group 1.

Informative recombinants showed crossovers that localize the NIP gene between markers

146O17 and 23C16D. Marker 164N9 co-segregates with the NIP gene, and the location of

marker 164N9 is between markers 146O17 and 23C16D. Based upon data from the Medicago

genome sequencing project, a subset of the model legume Medicago truncatula bacterial

artificial chromosomes (BACs) were used to create a physical map on the DNA in this

genetic internal. BACs near the potential NIP gene location near marker 164N9 were

identified, and used in experiments to predict the physical map by a BAC-by-BAC strategy.

Using marker 164N9 as a center point, and chromosome walking outward, the physical map

toward markers 146O17 and 23C16D was built. The chromosome walk consisted of a virtual

walk, made with existing sequence of BACs from the Medicago genome project,

hybridizations to filters containing BAC DNA, and PCR reactions to confirm that predicted

overlapping BACs contained DNA that yielded similar PCR products. In addition, the

primers which are made for physical mapping via PCR could be good genetic markers helpful

in discovering the location of the NIP gene. As a result of efforts repotted here, gap in

physical map between marker 164N9 and 146O17 was closed.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 Symbiotic Nitrogen- fixing and Legume-Rhizobium Symbiosis

Nitrogen is an essential part of protein and DNA in all living organisms. Although 78%

of the earth’s atmosphere is composed of nitrogen, plants and animals cannot use N2 directly.

In order to use nitrogen, organisms need a reduced form of it. One way that N2 is reduced is by

a process called nitrogen fixation. This is the process when nitrogen is taken in the form of N2

from the atmosphere and converted into a reduced form of nitrogen: ammonia.

N2 + 8H+ + 8e− + 16Mg-ATP → 2NH3 + H2 + 16Mg -ADP + 16 Pi

(Mylona, Pawlowski et al. 1995)

The nitrogenase enzymes are very susceptible to inactivation by oxygen and these

bacteria cease production of the enzyme in the presence of oxygen. Low oxygen concentration

is achieved by different bacteria by several mechanisms, including living in anaerobic

conditions or respiring to produce lower oxygen levels. In symbiotic nitrogen fixation, the

nodules of the legume plants offer a low oxygen concentration environment for the bacteria.

The nitrogen fixing symbiosis provides legume plants with nitrogen, and thus legume plants

have the ability to grow in barren and infertile soil. By the nodule’s nitrogen fixing symbiosis,

legume plants also add reduced nitrogen to the surrounding soil, enriching it and serving as a

natural fertilizer (Graham and Vance 2003).

1.2 Nodule Development

1.2.1 Initiation of Nodulation

Legume plants will enter into the symbiosis and produce nodules with bacteria only

when the environment lacks reduced nitrogen. The initiation of nodulation involves a complex

of various chemical compound signals’ interaction between plants and bacteria. In the first step

Page 11: THE NIP GENE - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc5152/m2/... · Lee, Yi-Ching. Physical Map between Marker 8O7 and 146O17 on the Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1 that Contains the

of nodule development, legumes release flavonoids to attract rhizobia, and flavonoids activate

nod (nodulation) genes in rhizobia to produce the Nod factors (Szczyglowski and Amyot

2003). The structure of Sinorhizobium meliloti, Nod factors, consists of a backbone of three to

five β-1, 4-linked N-acetylglucosamines carrying a fatty acid on a nonreducing sugar residue

(Ardourel, Demont et al. 1994). Nod factors were hypothesized to bind the receptor Nod factor

perception protein (NFP). NFP is a putative Nod factor receptor gene encoding a lysine motif

(LysM) receptor like kinase (RLK). In L. japonicys two trans-membrane LysM-RLK, NRF1

and NRF5 are required in root hairs to initiate the calcium influx causing membrane

depolarization and swelling of the root hair tip for initiation of nodulation (Cullimore and

Dénarié 2003; Oldroyd and Downie 2004). This ion influx as a signal was hypothesized to be

transduced by the DMI1 and DMI2 gene products. Next, Ca2+ spiking active is proposed to the

calcium-calmodulin dependent protein kinase (CCaMK) DMI3 (Mitra, Gleason et al. 2004;

Oldroyd and Downie 2004). The putative cation channel DMI1 and the receptor like kinase

DMI2 were predicted to be up stream of the Ca2+ spiking and DMI3. DMI3 kinase, which is

located in the nucleus of epidermal cells, may interact with transcription factors to control gene

expression in host plant cells. NSP1 and NSP2 gene are located downstream of DMI3 and are

putative transcription factors. They are activated by phosphorylation of DMI3, and NSP2 is

believed to initiate gene expression. NSP2 is also believed to increase the amount of cytokinin

in the root epidermal cells. Cytokinin activates the LHK1 receptor in cortical cells, and the

LHK1 receptor is an activator for NSP2 for the formation of nodule primordium (Oldroyd

2007).

1.2.2 Bacterial Infection

After rhizobia reach the outer layers of the root hairs, the further curling of the root

hairs trap rhizobia in the “shepherd’s crook” and form an infection thread for rhizobia to enter

Page 12: THE NIP GENE - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc5152/m2/... · Lee, Yi-Ching. Physical Map between Marker 8O7 and 146O17 on the Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1 that Contains the

the host plant (Brewin 1991). Shepherd’s crook contains a root hair forming a 360 degree curl.

Inside of the “shepherd’s crook” the bacteria are thought to hydrolyze the cell wall;

subsequently, the plasma membrane invaginates, and new cell walls are formed around it.

Concomitant with infection thread formation, cortical cell division occurs to form a nodule

primordium. After the thread has grown through the outer cortical cell layer and reached the

newly divided cortical cells of the nodule’s primordium, rhizobia are endocytosed into the

plant host cells and form the symbiosome. The infection threads terminate at the primordium

where they release the rhizobia into the plant host cell’s cytoplasm in a process resembling

endocytosis (Hirsch 1992) (Gage and Margolin 2000). In the symbiosome, rhizobia are

surrounded in a plant membrane, so they cannot enter the intracellular space in the plant host

cell. Also, rhizobia divide along with the symbiosome membrane and differentiate into

bacteroids for nitrogen-fixing (Brewin 1991; Brewin 2004).

1.2.3 Nodule Formation

When nodule is developing, several zones are formed. The top part is the nodule

meristem, also called zone I (Vasse, de Billy et al. 1990). Next is zone II, and it is the infection

zone containing rhizobia inside infection threads. Between zone II and zone III is the interzone

II/III where rhizobia differate into the bacteroid for nitrogen-fixation. Zone III is the

nitrogen-fixing zone. The last zone, zone IV, only can be found in old nodules. It contains

aging rhizobia and host cells.

1.3 The Model Legume Medicago truncatula

In our research, we are studying the legume-rhizobium symbiosis using the model

legume Medicago truncatula. There are advantages which make M. truncatula a good model

among legume species. It is a member of the Papilionoideae sub-family of the legumes and is

also closely related to the majority of crop and pasture legumes; moreover it is a cousin of

alfalfa an important crop plant. For other aspects, M. truncatula also has a relatively small,

diploid genome with size of ~454 to 526 Mbp, which makes it useful for both genetics and

genomics (Young, Cannon et al. 2005). Further, it is self-fertile and produces a large number of

seed on a plant with a relatively small stature. Finally, it is relatively easy to transform, which

makes it suitable for reverse genetics experiments. The M. truncatula genome sequence is

expected to be finished in 2008 (http://www.medicago.org/genome/). Also, many mutant lines

are available for genetic research. Additionally, different ecotypes can be used for genetic

studies.

1.4 Medicago truncatula Symbiotic Mutants

The mutants dmi (doesn’t make infection), nsp (nodulation signaling pathway), nfp

(Nod factor perception), and hcl (hair curling) are defective in early responses of the plant to

Nod factors(Catoira, Galera et al. 2000) (Wais, Galera et al. 2000). The mutant, sunn, has auxin

defects (Penmetsa, Frugoli et al. 2003), and skl has ethylene defects (Penmetsa and Cook

1997). Researchers also isolated mutants from ethyl methanesulfonate mutagenesis at the early

stage of nodule infection; such as, lin (lumpy infection) (Kuppusamy, Endre et al. 2004), rit

(root hairs, infection thread, trichomes, identified by Oldroyd), and bit (branched infection

threads recently cloned by Oldroyd). All of them have a similar phenotype of reduction in the

number of infections.

1.5 The Symbiotic Mutant nip

In order to investigate the legume-Rhizobium symbiosis, scientists in the Dickstein lab

isolated the symbiotic mutant nip from Medicago truncatula. The nip mutant, C90, was

isolated from a Medicago truncatula population mutagenized with ethyl methane sulfonate.

The nip mutant showed nitrogen deficiency symptoms when grown in the presence of S.

meliloti and without nitrogen, and it has a defective root system and shorter lateral roots than

the wild type. The nip mutant produces small brown bump-like nodules instead of pink

nitrogen fixing nodules found in wild type (Veereshlingam, Haynes et al. 2004). It has

abnormal proliferative infection threads that only rarely release rhizobia into nodule primordia

cells. Previous research indicated that nip has the ability to initiate a symbiotic interaction with

Sinorhizobium meliloti and to generate normal nodule primordia and infection threads, but fails

in the step of releasing the bacteria from the infection threads into the host plant cells, and the

bacteria consequently cannot differentiate further to produce reduced nitrogen. When the nip

mutant grows with S. meliloti and without nitrogen in media, it shows nitrogen starvation

Page 15: THE NIP GENE - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc5152/m2/... · Lee, Yi-Ching. Physical Map between Marker 8O7 and 146O17 on the Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1 that Contains the

symptoms. nip primary shoots were found to be approximately the same size as wild type at 5

and 10 days post-inoculation (dpi) and 75% of wild type at 15 dpi, and this is considered to

reflect a nitrogen deficiency. Also, nip was found to have semi-penetrant lateral root defects

and showed shorter primary roots. After 10 dpi, nip generated small brown bump-like nodules;

however, they were different from the pink nitrogen fixing nodules found in wild type. This

leads to a smaller overall size and higher death rate than wild type (Veereshlingam, Haynes et

al. 2004). The allelism tests by Dr. H. Veereshlingam indicated that the nip mutant is allelic to

the latd (lateral root organ defective) mutant, which was isolated in Dr. J. Harris’s lab which

has similar phenotype to nip (Bright, Liang et al. 2005).

1.6 The NIP Gene

The nip mutant was shown to be recessive and behaved as a single gene defective

mutant. The nip mutant defines a new locus, NIP, required for appropriate infection thread

development during invasion of nascent nodules by rhizobia. A20 and A17 are ecotypes and

are the basis for making a genetic map (Penmetsa and Cook, 2000). For genetic and phenotypic

analysis of the NIP gene, nip was back-crossed twice (BC2) into A17 M. truncatula, and nip in

A17 Medicago truncatula background was also crossed into another ecotype M. truncatula

A20. Based on linkage analysis of F2 progeny from the nip x A20 cross, we have an outline of

the position of the NIP gene on the M. truncatula genome.

1.7 The M. truncatula Genome Sequence Project

The M. truncatula genome sequence project started in 2003 with funding from the

Samuel Roberts Noble Foundation. Subsequent funding is being provided by the National

Science foundation and the European Union's Sixth Framework Programme. M. truncatula has

8 haploid chromosomes, approximately 500 Mb of sequence, and approximatlely 150 Mb of

euchromatin. The complete sequence expected to be finished in 2008. The Website of M.

truncatula genome sequence project provides coordination for sequencing of the M. truncatula

genome, including access to physical and genetic maps, molecular markers, BAC sequences,

genome browsers, and annotation (http://www.medicago.org/genome/). The center database

Website for the M. truncatula genome sequence project is maintained by the U Minnesota and

the center for Computational Genomics and Bioinformatics (CCGB) (Young, Cannon et al.

2005). Moreover, sequence data is deposited to Genbank (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/) and

updates are made daily.

To investigate the nip mutant, it is necessary to clone the NIP gene. We are using gene

prediction from a subset of the model legume Medicago truncatula bacterial artificial

Page 17: THE NIP GENE - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc5152/m2/... · Lee, Yi-Ching. Physical Map between Marker 8O7 and 146O17 on the Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1 that Contains the

chromosome (BAC) clones and the technique of chromosome walking, to discover the location

of the NIP gene. A BAC is a DNA construct, based on fertility plasmids, used for transforming

and cloning in E. coli. BACs are often used to sequence DNA of organisms in genome projects.

A short piece of the organism's DNA is amplified as an insert in BACs, and then sequenced.

There are currently five Mt BAC libraries. These BAC libraries were constructed for genome

analysis and map-based cloning of symbiotic genes. BAC libraries represent a resource for the

map-based cloning and physical mapping in Medicago truncatula and other legumes.

The first M. truncatula BAC library, mth1, was constructed by Dr. Cook (UC Davis)

using the pBeloBAC11 (Shizuya 1992). M. truncatula A17 DNA was the template and it was

partially digested by the HindIII restriction enzyme. This library contained 30000 clones of

100 kb average size representing 5 haploid genome equivalents (Nam, Penmetsa et al. 1999).

The second library, mth2, was used to complement the mth1 library, and it contained 100000

clones of 120 kb average size (Choi, Kim et al. 2004). To avoid gaps that will be encountered

when chromosome walking in only HindIII based libraries, more libraries were developed. The

third library, mtel, was constructed in France using partial digests of M. truncatula DNA by

EcoRI (Chalhoub, Belcram et al. 2004). The fourth library, mtb1, was constructed in Korea

using partial digests of M. truncatula DNA by BamHI (U Sogang, Korea). The fifth library,

mth4, was a library with larger inserts (over 200 kb) and constructed using HindIII partial

digestion.

In order to organize these BACs, 44000 clones of the mth2 library have been

fingerprinted by HindIII digestion and organized into 1370 contigs (average size around 340

kb). A contig in genome sequencing projects is a set of overlapping DNA pieces derived from a

genetic source. A contig map shows the relative order of linked BACs or other DNA pieces

determined by overlapping DNA restriction fragments contigs. When searching BACs within

the contig, the rate for finding BACs around in the same contig is high (Mun, Kim et al. 2006).

At the same time, many seed BACs which contain expressed sequence tag (EST) were fully

sequenced by sequence tagged connector (STC) at the U Oklahoma

(http://www.genome.ou.edu/medicago.html). STC is based on the BAC-end sequence (BES).

More than 55000 clones’ BES of mth2, 30000 clones’ BES of mte1, and 10000 clones’ BES of

mth4 were sequenced (Medicago truncatula Handbook, 2006). BES are useful for

chromosome walking both on virtual walk and actual walk to build up physical map. The

National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) provides BES information and the tool

to BLAST BES to different databases (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/), such nr, htgs, and gss.

By blasting BES to different databases, one can obtain some hints for overlapping BACs.

1.8 Goal

The goal for the project is to build the physical map between marker 8O7 and 146O17 on

the M. truncatula linkage group 1 or LG1 that contains the NIP gene.

1.9 Genetic Map for the Location of the NIP Gene on Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1

We used the A17/A20 genetic map for mapping NIP in A17 background. The mutant

nip was crossed to the ecotype A20 that contains wild-type NIP genes. F2 progeny from this

cross were evaluated for nodulation phenotype. Leaves, DNA, and seeds from the F2 progeny

were collected. We now have approximately 1500 nip/A20 mapping population plants. We

established the location of the NIP gene on Medicago truncatula linkage group 1.

Figure 3: The approximate map for the location of the NIP gene on Medicago truncatula linkage Group 1.

We identified the genotype of each F2 plant at various genetic loci, and by doing so we

can identify recombinant plants in the genetic interval that contains NIP. These are identified in

PCR reactions with primers for markers 146017 and 23c16d (Morris, Thesis 2007). These two

genetic markers define the interval containing NIP and they have a significant difference in

product size. Many markers also flank the putative location of the NIP gene, allowing for quick

screening of informative recombinant plants that have genetic crossovers in that region. After

analyzing the PCR data, more and more informative recombinants within the mutant

population were found. Each loci can be identified as either A17 (indicating the mutant’s

parental lineage) homozygote, A20 (wt) homozygote or heterozygote. By comparing the

genetic composition of locus to the plant’s phenotype, each locus can be linked to the nip or

wild type phenotype. By this process, we can narrow down the genetic area in which the NIP

gene could be located (Figure 1). Combined with the development of the physical map, more

markers are predicted and used in genetic analysis. We selected BACs around the NIP region

and used either their end or internal sequences to be genetic markers to identify polymorphisms

in different A17 and A20 ecotypes.

1.10 Chromosome Walking

Chromosome walking, the BAC-by-BAC strategy, contains 4 parts: virtual walk,

hybridization walk, PCR walk, and sequencing BACs determined to be part of minimal tiling

path(Altschul, 1990). For the virtual walk, we used existing sequence and the BLAST

algorithm to BES database (Genbank GSS) and BAC sequence databases (Genbank HTGS and

NR) for overlapping BACs. By BLAST, the overlapping BES and non-overlapping BES could

be obtained, and non-overlapping BES would be used on virtual walk for obtaining more BACs.

At the same time, one needs to pay attention to the contig information of the relevant BACs.

For the hybridization walk, 32P-labeled DNA from one BES is used as a hybridization probe

against BACs arrayed on filters. After decoding the resulting hybridization pattern, BACs that

were found from BAC filters were checked for their contig information and used in virtual

walks for obtaining more overlapping BACs. For the PCR walk, sequence information from

BES would be used to predict primers, and primers would be used in PCR reaction against

BACs found by both virtual walks and hybridization walks to confirm overlap. Based on those

results, the physical map was built. Finally, we selected several BAC clones and sent them to

Dr. Bruce Roe at University of Oklahoma for DNA sequence. Dr. Bruce Roe is part of the M.

truncatula genomic sequencing team. The sequence can be used to predict more genetic

markers useful for narrowing down the position of the NIP gene.

CHAPTER 2

RESULTS

2.1 Marker 164N9, BAC mth2-164n9 and mth2-164P8

In the spring 2006, the M. truncatula genome project reported marker 164N9 as being

on linkage group 1 at 0.7 cM (http://www.medicago.org/genome/). That map position is close

to the position of NIP (H. Wessler unpublished data). Marker 164N9 came from partial

sequence of mth2-164N9, as reported by the M. truncatula genome project. Subsequently,

Heath Wessler and Viktoria Morris showed that marker 164N9 co-segregates with the NIP

gene. As a first step to correlate the genetic Medicago map with the physical Medicago map in

this region, we tried to PCR BAC mth2-164n9 with primers corresponding to marker 164N9.

The results showed that DNA corresponding to BAC mth2-164N9 could only be obtained in

PCR reaction containing genomic DNA and not from BAC mth2-164N9. This result strongly

suggested that marker 164N9 was contained within a different BAC. We then used the PCR

fragment obtained from a PCR reaction of genomic DNA using 164N9 primers to probe the

BAC filter sets. We found that the BAC mth2-164P8 and not BAC mth2-164N9 hybridized to

the 164N9 marker fragment (Figure 2). In further PCR experiments with primers derived from

the partial sequence of mth2-164N9, DNA was amplified from mth2-164P8 and not

mth2-164N9 confirming our identification. We reported this information to the genome

project, which later confirmed our data (Dr. Bruce Roe, personal communication). In order to

determine the position of mth2-164P8 relative to other BACs, mth2-164P8 sequences were

used to predict primers, which were used as PCR primers in reaction that contained BAC DNA

of BACs predicted to overlap mth2-164P8. Mth2-164P8 is in DNA fingerprint contig 1356 and

BACs predicted as overlapping mth2-164P8 frequently came from this contig.

Figure 4: PCR results for BAC mth2-164P8.

Locations of PCR primer set used to identify overlapping BACs with mth2-164P8. The

positions were deduced from the experiments described here and were later confirmed when

the full sequence of mth2-164P8 was completed. None of the primers successfully amplified

DNA when mth2-164N9 DNA was used as template. Orange bar is BAC mth2-164P8. RED

star marker is present positive PCR results.

The location of genetic marker 164N9 is between genetic markers 146O17 and

23C16D (Figure 3). In the first phases of my work, the orientation of mth2-164P8 was

unknown. In order to figure out the orientation, a physical bridge between markers 164N9,

and/or 146O17 and/or 23C16D needed to be found. To build up the physical map, a

BAC-by-BAC strategy was used. The BAC-by-BAC strategy, also called chromosome

walking, is a technique that orders BACs in the genome around a sequenced piece of DNA. The

DNA sequence is used as a probe, such as probe 164N9 4F+4R. First, we screened the gene

library for BACs hybridizing with the probe 164N9 4F+4R. These are then subjected to further

rounds of PCR testing, using primers predicted to BES as probe to piece out the order of BACs.

The most distal BES of the most distal BAC was used as another probe to obtain other BACs.

This is repeated until the gap is sealed between BACs that contain in genetic markers. The

telomere is beyond genetic marker 146O17. The centromere is beyond genetic marker

23C16D.

2.2 Using mth2-164P8 as a Center Point to walk out toward Centromere and Telomere

By taking marker 164N9 as a center point, we walked from marker 164N9 toward

146O17 (telomere) and toward 23C16D (centromere). At this time, mth2-164P8 was in

sequencing phase 2, so its sequence was unordered. In order to get more information to walk

out from marker 164N9, a virtual walk using sequence at Genbank was done (Table 1).

At the same time, a hybridization experiment was carried out by Dr. Catalina Pisariu on

BAC filters of mth1, mth2 libraries (Figure 4). Using 164N9 4F+4R fragment as a probe, the

location of primer 164N9 4F+4R was found to be very close to marker 164N9. After the

hybridization of primer 164N9 4F+4R to the BAC filters, the results were reconciled with

BACs from virtual walk. The results confirmed several BACs from the virtual walk. Those

BACs were obtained from Clemson University Genomics Institute (CUGI) for further

research.

Primers were predicted from the sequence of mth2-164P8 (mth2-164N9), and they

were used to PCR DNA using mth2-164P8 as template. They were also used on BACs that

were found from Genbank and probing of BAC filters with 164N9 4F+4R. For example,

primer 164N9 17F+17R was tested on A20 DNA and 22 BACs including mth2-164P8. The

results showed that 164N9 17F+17R anchored mth2-164P8 and other 11 BACs in this area

(Figure 5 and table 2). BES of BACs from the virtual walk and the actual walk were used to

predict more primers for mapping.

Based on the 3 known unordered sequences of mth2-164P8 (mth2-164N9) and PCR

results of primers 164P8 1F+1R and 164P8 3F+3R from two BES of mth2-164P8, the basic

physical map framework was revealed, and 3 unordered sequence pieces of mth2-164P8

(mth2-164N9) were ordered. The ordered primer locations of mth2-164N9 and mth2-164P8

helped to lock in other primers and BAC’s locations. Comparing PCR results of primer 164P8

1F+1R, 164P8 3F+3R, 10P15 1F+1R, and 164N9 4F+4R, the locations of each BAC could be

approximately revealed. For example, mth2-10P15 had two BES, and 10P15 1F+1R was

represented for one of them (the BES CG919384). The PCR results showed that 10P15 1F+1R

was not anchored to mth2-164P8. Mth2-10P15 was anchored to 164N9 4F+4R, 164P8 1F+1R,

and 164P8 3F+3R. These information indicated that the location of 10P15 1F+1R (the BES

CG919384) is out of mth2-164P8, and most of mth2-10P15 overlapped with mth2-164P8.

After analyzing and ordering all PCR results, the physical map was expanded from

mth2-164P8, but the orientation was still unknown (Table 3 and Figure 6). In order to walk

closer to the NIP gene on the genetic map, more markers need to be predicted and discovered.

All primers in this area were tested in PCR reactions with A17 and A20 DNA to look

for polymorphisms. The PCR results of 4L4 1F+1R with A17 and A20 DNA showed that the

A17 and A20 products had different sizes. This showed that A17 and A20 were polymorphic

for 4L4 1F+1R, so 4L4 1F+1R could be used as a genetic marker that was useful in our quest

for mapping NIP.

2.3 Physical Map between Marker 164N9 to 146O17 (Telomere)

From the genetic map, markers ENBP, 3C01, and 2D12 were located between markers

164N9 and 146O17. The BES of mth2-9O20 also was used to identify overlapping BACs from

Genbank, such as mth1-12P21, mth2-160C2, mth1-52P8, mth1-57P5, mth1-80G21, mth2-

160C2, mth2-175E1, and mth4-157H12. Two BES of mth2-9O20 were also used to predict

Page 28: THE NIP GENE - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc5152/m2/... · Lee, Yi-Ching. Physical Map between Marker 8O7 and 146O17 on the Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1 that Contains the

19

primers, such as 9O20 130K and 9O20 104K. Both of them were used to PCR BACs that were

identified by BES of mth2-9O20 to determine the direction. The PCR results showed that 9O20

130K went further toward marker 164N9; moreover, mth2-160C2 and mth1-52P8 were

predicted to be near marker 164N9. Next, the sequence of mth2-160C2 was released on the

NCBI Website, but it contained unordered pieces. In order to get more information, primers

were predicted form different pieces of mth2-160C2 sequence, but many of them did not have

positive PCR results. Therefore, mth1-52P8 was used to replace mth2-160C2 and determined

other BACs from Genbank. Based on the information Genbank, the available BACs for

crossing the area between mth2-9O20 and mth2-57D22 were few, and mth1-52P8 was seen to

be the distal one toward marker 164N9.

The BES of mth2-164P8 were used to do a virtual walk on Genbank and pulled out

many BACs. The mth2-160M23 and mth2-71F24 were seen to be distal BACs from

mth2-164P8, but the position was unknown. Therefore, both of mth2-160M23 and

mth2-71F24 were tested with the primers 9O20 130K and 52P8 1F+1R to figure out which one

was located between marker 164N9 and 146O17. After analyzing the PCR results,

mth2-160M23 was determined to overlap with mth1-52P8, thus closing the gap and showing

that this side of mth2-164P8 is telomeric. Then, the direction of mth2-164P8 was revealed and

the physical map between marker 146O17 and 164N9 was finished (Table 4 and Figure 7).

2.4 Physical Map between Marker 164N9 to 8O7 (Centromere)

From previous PCR results of 164N9 primers, BACs between markers 164N9 and 8O7

were recognized. Using the sequence of mth2-164N9 as a template to match with the new

BACs BES, the distal BES toward marker 164N9 of each BAC was then known to be found,

and the other BES was the distal one toward marker 8O7. Although the direction of each BAC

was known, the path and order of these BACs was unclear. In order to walk toward marker

8O7, the distal BES toward marker 8O7 of each BAC was used to predict primers. All primers

were used to test all BACs in this area. From PCR results, mth2-71F24 and mth2-78L20 were

found to be the most distal BACs toward marker 8O7 from marker 164N9 (Table 5 and Figure

8).

From the results, mth2-71F24 was the BAC that pointed out furthest toward marker 8O7

(centromere), so the BES (Genbank accession CG959625) of mth2-71F24 was used as a probe

to identify overlapping BACs. This was done first computationally by BLAST Genbank

accession CG959625 against different databases (gss, nr, htgs), we determined that the

sequence was highly repetitive. The blast result of Genbank accession CG959625 of

mth2-71F24 was messy and confused.

Figure 11: BAC filter Mt ABb A, probed with 71F24 from Dr. Catalina Pisariu.

We tried to make primer set 71F24 1F+1R to use as a probe to identify overlapping

BACs on BAC filters of mth1 and mth2. However, its highly repetitive sequence caused much

difficulty in reading the BAC filters, thus this was not useful in the chromosome walk (Figure

11).

After probing and comparing the information with Genbank, 3 BACs were selected to

go further. They were mth2-1G13, mth2-143F7, and mth2-31M3. In order to confirm their

authenticity, primers were predicted from mth2-1G13, mth2-31M3, and mth2-143F7. The

PCR results indicated that mth2-1G13 did not overlap with mth2-143F7 and mth2-31M3. The

BES of mth2-31M3 and mth2-143F7 overlapped with many BACs around this area. Therefore,

mth2-31M3 and mth2-143F7 were not reliable for elongation of the map. From Genbank,

mth2-1G13 only had one BES in database at this time, and the sequence was also highly

repetitive. Because the unfinished database could not give us more information for BACs

around this area, we decided to send 7 BACs to Dr. Bruce Roe for DNA sequence analysis. At

the same time, CUGI told us that on some BAC membranes positions 3 and 4 were transposed,

so the adjustments for BAC identity were made.

Figure 13: BAC filter Mt ABb B, probed with 78L20. In this BAC filter, mth2-71F24 and mth2-78L20 were identified.

In order to avoid nonspecific results, the second distal BES toward marker 8O7, the BES

(Genbank accession CG935356) of mth2-78L20, was used to identify BACs in Genbank files.

In fact, Genbank accession CG935356 did not identify many BACs in Genbank files, so it was

used to predict primers and was made into a probe to test on BAC filters of mth1 and mth2

(Figure 12 and Figure 13). The results of BAC filters were remarkable, and many specific

BACs were pulled out (Table 7).

Because marker 164N9 was in contig 1365, BACs, which were in contig 1365, were the

first selected to go further. After comparing the information from Genbank and BAC filters,

many BACs were selected for next step (Table 8).

From the genetic map, NIP co-segregates with 164N9. Marker 4L4 segregates from

NIP, showing that the NIP is located between markers 4L4 and 8O7. To further investigate the

location of NIP, new markers need to be developed between marker 4L4 and 8O7. The

sequence of mth2-78L20 was sequenced by Dr. Bruce Roe at the U Oklahoma. The sequence

of mth2-78L20 was used to predict primers for searching for new markers in the area between

marker 4L4 and 8O7. So far, A17 and A20 were polymorphic for 78L20 M3F+M1R. To walk

further, mth2-1G13 and mth4- 27J14 were seen to be distal BACs toward marker 8O7. Table 6

and 7 include several PCR results in which sequence was used to predict at genetic markers in

this area. Up to now the physical area between markers 164N9 to 8O7 is not yet finished

(Figure 14).

CHAPTER 3

DISCUSSION

In order to discover the location of the NIP gene, both physical mapping and genetic

mapping are required. In the beginning, genetic mapping placed the NIP gene on linkage group

one. Markers 003C01 and DK140L were used previously in the Dickstein lab, and the results

indicated that nip homozygous plants co-segregated with them; therefore, the NIP gene was

placed on the upper arm of linkage group 1. To positionally clone the NIP gene, a mapping

population was established. It was created by crossing male sterile C90 into the different

background ecotype wild type A20 (Penmetsa and Cook 2000). The F2 generation of mapping

population showed a ratio of 1: 2.9 nip: wild type, and this result was consistent with nip being

as a single recessive allele. Next, markers 146O17, ENBP, and 23C16D were used by

Viktoriya Morris, and more recombinant plants from the mapping population were identified.

By genotyping and phenotyping more plants from the of mapping population, the result placed

the NIP gene between markers 23C16D and 146O17. In order to go close to the NIP gene,

markers 164N9, 8O7, and 4L4 were used on all recombinant plants. The results narrowed down

the location of the NIP gene between markers 8O7 and 4L4.

At the same time, a physical map starting from marker 164N9 and expanding outward

toward markers 8O7 and 146O17 was initiated by using information from the Medicago

genome project, contained in Genbank and BAC filters. Because the genome sequencing

project of M. truncatula is still in process, many BACs that are in the sequence pipeline contain

incomplete sequence. In addition, and some of the BACs have incorrect sequence information

or they are unordered. Sequencing of DNA on Chromosome is being carried out by different

labs, but mostly by Dr. B. Roe’s lab at U. of Oklahoma. The BAC naming system has had some

discrepancies. Therefore, at this time, it is impossible to get all the information for the virtual

walk online for physical mapping; therefore, the actual walk on BAC filters is necessary.

Moreover, BAC clones sometime have problems, such as deletion of DNA fragment in the

BAC, and DNA fragment in the BAC that does not correspond to the sequence for that BAC. A

further concern is chimeric BACs. Therefore, we need to be careful about the authenticity of

BACs.

In the beginning, many BACs around mth2-164P8 were identified by BAC filters with

probe 164N9 4F+4R and the virtual walk online. After these BACs were placed on the

physical map in order, we determined that mth2-4L4 was the distal BAC toward marker

146O17 on the telomeric side. The BES of mth2-4L4 were used to discover more BACs from

Genbank, and BAC mth2-160M23 was found to go further toward marker 146O17.

Starting from mth2-146O17 at the telomeric side of NIP, BAC mth2-160C2 and

mth2-9O20 were found to be the furthest toward mth2-164P8. BES of mth2-160C2 and

mth2-9O20 were used to discover more BACs from Genbank, and mth2-175E11 was the one

found to extend furthest toward marker 164N9 (mth2-164P8). After testing the BAC’s

authenticity with PCR, both mth2-160M23 and mth2-175E1 were used in PCR reaction with

other primers predicted from BACs thought to overlap this area. The PCR of mth2-160M23

and mth2-175E1 with primers from mth2-4L4, mth1-52P8, and mth2-9O20 indicated that the

gap between mth2-4L4 and mth2-160C2 was connected by mth2-160M23 and mth2-175E1.

For the physical map between markers 164N9 on BAC mth2-164P8 and 8O7 on BAC

mth2-8O7, less information was found for BACs in this area. To get more BAC information,

BAC filters were probed with primer 71F24 from mth2-71F24, but results were not

informative. Then, probe 78L20 from mth2-78L20 was used to probe BAC filters, and results

were very useful. Because marker 164N9 (in contig 1365) co-segregates with the NIP gene,

BACs which were discovered from BAC filters and BACs discovered from their sequence

which are in contig 1365 are seen to be more likely candidates for physical mapping to close

the gap between mth2-164P8 and mth2-8O7. Unfortunately, contig 1365 has 1765 BACs, and

Page 49: THE NIP GENE - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc5152/m2/... · Lee, Yi-Ching. Physical Map between Marker 8O7 and 146O17 on the Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1 that Contains the

the sequence is highly repetitive in this area. In order to overcome this problem, BACs coming

from the mth4 library which has larger genomic insert, are likely to make walking through this

area easier.

Another way to solve the problem is to sequence all the BACs in this area, so 7 BACs

were sent to Dr. Bruce Roe for further sequencing. In the future more BACs will be sent to Dr.

Bruce Roe for sequencing. By knowing more sequence, the chance is higher for finding more

markers for genetic mapping. To narrow down the location of the NIP gene, developing more

markers is necessary and imperative. From Dr. Bruce Roe we got some BAC sequence

information back from the 7 BACs. Unfortunately, sequence of these BACs is still not

completed; for instance, the sequence mth2-78L20 was still in 14 unordered pieces on Sep 20

2007. Based on the sequence from Genbank, we predicted some primers to examine BAC

mth2-78L20 itself, and we found that some primers which predicted form the sequence do not

yield positive results with the BAC itself. This means that some of the DNA fragment for this

BAC is in error. For mth2-1G13, its sequence has been completed, but some conflicts between

the physical mapping and genetic mapping have happened on mth2-1G13. Therefore, we need

to have other reliable BACs in this area to walk across the gap. Now mth4-27J14 and

mtel-46C16 are seen to be possible to go further toward marker 8O7.

CHAPTER 4

METHODS AND MATERIALS

4.1 Medicago truncatula Artificial Chromosome (BAC) Culture

A BAC is a DNA construct, based on a fertility plasmid, used for transforming and

cloning in E. coli. BACs from the Clemson University Genomics Institute (CUGI) and France

were grown on 2% agar LB plates with the antibiotic chloramphenicol at final concentration of

34µg/ml at 37℃ over night. A single colony was transferred to 5ml LB media with

chloramphenicol and incubated at 37℃ in a shaker over night.

Luria-Bertani (LB) medium pH 7.4 contains 10g tryptone, 5g yeast extract, 10g NaCl,

and add ddH2O to 1L. 2% Agar Luria-Bertani (LB) medium pH 7.4 contains 10g tryptone, 5g

yeast extract, 10g NaCl, 20g agarose, and add ddH2O to 1L

All BAC-containing E. coli strains were frozen at -80℃ after adding sterile glycerol to a final

concentration of 20%.

4.2 BAC DNA Extraction

Solution I contains final concentration of 50mM glucose, 25mM Tris pH8, and 10mM

EDTA and it can be made before and kept for awhile, but solution II needs to be made fresh

before using. Solution II contains 2 ml 10% SDS, 0.8 ml 5 M NaOH, and add ddH2O to 20 ml.

Each centrifuge tube has 1.5ml cell culture and is centrifuged for 30 second. After the

supernatant is removed, the pellet needs to be mixed well with 0.2ml solution I contained

lysozyme (8mg/ml) and stays in room temperature for 5 minute. Next, 0.4ml solution II is

added to the mixture and stays on ice for 5 minute. Then, 0.3ml 8M ammonium acetate

(NH4OAC) is added and the mixture stays on ice for 10 minute. It needs to be centrifuged at

13,000 rpm for 5 minutes, and the supernatant needs to be moved to new centrifuge tube. The

supernatant mixes well with 0.6Vol isopropanol, and is centrifuged at 13,000 rpm for 10

minutes. After that, the precipitated DNA pellet was slightly opalescent or white. The pellet

was rinsed with 200µl 70% cold ethanol and centrifuged for 30 seconds. The liquid was

removed and the DNA pellet dried for 30 minutes at room temperature. The DNA pellet was

dissolved in 30µl TE buffer and stored at -20 °C.

4.3 DNA Extraction from Plant Leaves

The CTAB procedure was used. For this, one trifoliate was frozen in liquid N2 and

ground to a power. Then, 700µl of CTAB regent (2X Hexadecyl Trimethyl Ammonium

Bromide (CTAB): 2% CTAB, 100mM Tris, 20mM EDTA, 1.4M NaCl, 2% polyrinyl

pyrrolidone, 0.2% BME) was added to each tube and the tissue power re-suspended. After

incubation at 65℃, the mixture was extracted with chloroform regent (chloroform: IAA: 24:1).

After the agarose phase is moved to a fresh tube, isopropanol was added to a final

concentration 40%. The DNA was collected by centrifugation, rinsed with 70% icy ethanol and

air dried. Subsequently, the DNA was re-suspending in 30µl sterile water and stored at -80℃.

4.4 BAC Sequence on NCBI Website and Primer Prediction

M. truncatula BAC sequences were obtained from NCBI and used to query the NCBI

databases using BLAST, and sequences on Gene bank. Each BAC has two BES. To determine

which one overlaps a particular sequenced BAC program was used. “Blast” and “aligns two

sequences (bl2seq)” (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/blast/bl2seq/wblast2.cgi)

Next, the tool “Blast”,” Nucleotide-nucleotide BLAST (blastn)” on NCBI was used to

aginst three different databases: nr, gss, and htgs to look for overlap with other BACs for

further mapping.

Together with BACs discovered using hybridization walks minimal tilting path BACs

were found. PCR was used to confirm results from BAC filters and virtual walks on Genbank.

Based on BES, oligonucleotide primers were designed by using the “Oligoperfect designer”

from Invitrogen.com (http://www.invitrogen.com/content.cfm?pageid=1). This program

4.5 Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR)

PCR was used to confirm if the primer sets localized to the BAC and to help build up

the physical map. Each sample was 20µl and mixed with the following reagents: 13.52µl

Sterile ddH2O, 10X New England Biolabs Thermopol buffer (20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.8, @25

℃), 10mM KCI, 10 mM (NH4)2SO2, 2mM MgSO4, 0.1% Triton X-100), 1.6µl 2.5mM dNTPs,

0.8µl 5mM Forward and Reverse primers, 2µl 100X diluted BAC or plant DNA extract, and

0.1µTaq DNA Polymerase (New England Biolabs).

The reaction cycle condition:

Step 1 94℃ 4 minutes Step 2 94℃ 30 seconds Step 3 50~60℃ (depend on primers) 30 seconds Step 4 72℃ 30~60 seconds (depend on primers) Step 5 Repeat Step 2-4 for 35 cycles Step 6 72℃ 4 minutes Step 7 25℃ Hold indefinitely PCR products were assessed by gel electrophoresis in 2% agarose gel made with 1X

TBE (1X Tris-Boric Acid-EDTA buffer, pH 8.2). Gels were visualized under UV light by

means of ethidium bromide staining.

4.6 BAC Filters Hybridization

BAC filters were used for chromosome walking. In the area of the physical map

between 78L20 and marker 807, the sequences are highly repetitive. Thus, it was difficult to

assign overlapping BACs using the virtual walks approach. BAC filters are useful tools for

discovering potential BACs around this repeat sequence area. BAC filters used in this project

represented the mth1 and mth2 libraries. BAC filter hybridization started with making probes.

Probes, were PCR products predicted from BES.

4.6.1 Making the Probe

Each PCR reaction contain the following reagents and was split into 5 tubes of 100µl

each.

PCR reaction were performed with a 4 minute initial denaturation step at 94°, followed

by 35 cycles at 94° for 30 seconds. The annealing temperature depends on the primer and the

annealing time needs to be multiplicative 2.

The reaction cycle condition:

Step 1 94℃ 4 minutes Step 2 94℃ 30 seconds Step 3 50~56℃ (depend on primers) 30 seconds Step 4 72℃ 1~2 minutes (the annealing time needs to

be X2) Step 5 Repeat Step 2-4 for 35 cycles Step 6 72℃ 10 minutes Step 7 25℃ Hold indefinitely PCR products need to go through purification columns with Sephadex G-50 for

removing primer dimmers. 100~140µl PCR products were applied to each purification column

and centrifuged at 3000-3600 rpm for 3 minutes. After all samples were collected in one tube,

we took 1µl sample out and put in a new tube to test its activity in scintillation counter. For one

BAC filter, it needs 5,000,000 cpm.

4.6.2 Stripping BAC Filters

The hybridization solution was pre heated to 65℃ in an oven. During this time, film

cassettes (BAC filters) from the -20℃ freezer were taken out and kept them at room

temperature for 1 hr. After that, BAC filters were taken out from the film cassettes and put in a

bucket with 1L Stripping buffer to shake for 10 minutes. Next, we replaced Stripping buffer

with ddH2O and shook for another 10 minutes. We replaced ddH2O with 1L 5X SSC and

shook for 10 minutes.

4.6.3 Prehybridization

Three BAC membranes were put in a tube and pre- hybridization in 65℃ oven for 3

Page 57: THE NIP GENE - UNT Digital Library/67531/metadc5152/m2/... · Lee, Yi-Ching. Physical Map between Marker 8O7 and 146O17 on the Medicago truncatula Linkage Group 1 that Contains the

hours with 40-50 ml pre heat hybridization solution.

4.6.4 Hybridization

Probes need to be heated up to 100℃ for 7 minutes and quickly moved to icy water for

15 minutes. Then, 100-140µl probes is added to each tube without dropping the probes on BAC

filters, mixed them well, and then stays in the 65℃ oven for16 -18 hours or more.

4.6.5 Wash

For rinsing out redundant probes on membranes, membranes are soaked and shaken in

warm wash buffer for several times. First, tubes were carefully taken out from the oven behind

the shield and the radiation waste was dumped in the radiation waste bottle. Second, all

membranes were taken out from tubes and put in the bucket with 0.8L wash buffer to shake for

15 minutes. Third, the radiation wash buffer was dumped in the radiation waste bottle and was

replaced by 0.8L wash buffer to shake for 15 minutes, and repeated it again. Fourth, 0.8L wash

buffer was warmed up to 65℃ by microwave. The wash buffer in the bucket was dumped and

was replaced by the warm wash buffer to shake for 15 minutes. Then, all membranes were put

in the surplus wash buffer in another bucket.

4.6.6 Exposure

After washing, membranes were wrapped with plastic wraps and placed in film

cassettes with films. Films cassettes stay in a -20℃ freezer for 3~21 days for exposure.

Afterwards, film cassettes were taken out from a freezer and stayed at room temperature for 1

hour before developing anvvv d printing films. In order to read membranes, we overlapped

films with a grid to look for exposure spots. After the spots were marked, the pattern and

49

location of spots were recorded. There is a special pattern for decoding membranes. By spots

locations and pattern, we can translate the data to useful BAC names.

4.6.7 Decoding

In order to translate the spot pattern and location to real BAC name, we used the grid of

BAC filters, duplication pattern position, and the table of display the actual arraying pattern

and plate numbers for BAC membranes.

First, the location and pattern of spots were identified by reading with the grid of BAC

filters and duplication pattern. Second, the location and pattern position of spots were

compared with the table of display the actual arraying pattern and plate numbers for BAC

membranes. For MT ABb A~F BAC filters, they are form mth2 library.

The BAC naming system is:

Library name- Plate number and Coordinate

For example: mth2- 164 P8
