Abstract:

ACC oxidase is one of the key rate-limiting enzymes which functioned in the biosynthesis of ethylene. An ACO gene designated as VvACO1 was cloned from leaves in grape by RT-PCR. The open reading frame of VvACO1 was 957 bp encoding 318 amino acids. The VvACO1 protein contained typical conserved domain with leucine zipper,Fe2+ and ascorbate binding motif. The sequences of VvACO1 shared similarity of 87% and 84% with the ACOs from tobacco and tomato respectively. The transcriptional level of VvACO1 was different in different tissues or organs of grape and up-regulated by ethephon. Over-expression of VvACO1 in tomato showed earlier flowering and fruit ripening. Meanwhile,transgenic Arabidopsis showed that over-expression of VvACO1 caused decreased photosynthetic efficiency and Chl. a fluorescence intensity.
