Abstract
A nodule-specific cDNA was isolated from a Vicia faba L. nodule cDNA library. Since time course experiments revealed an early expression of this transcript in the nodule, this cDNA coded for an early nodulin and was designated VfENOD-GRP3. Based on tissue print hybridizations, we found a predominant expression of VfENOD-GRP3 transcripts in the interzone II-III region of broad bean root nodules. The encoded early nodulin ENOD-GRP3 was characterized by an N-terminal signal peptide and a C-terminal domain displaying a glycine content of 31%. Sequence analysis of a genomic VfENOD-GRP3 clone revealed that the signal peptide and the glycine-rich domain were specified by two separate exons. Primer extension experiments identified two adjacent transcription start sites for VfENOD-GRP3 transcripts. The common nodulin sequences 'AAAGAT' and 'CTCTT' were present five and three times on both DNA strands of the putative VfENOD-GRP3 promoter, respectively. Additionally, three sequence motifs resembling organ-specific elements of the soybean lbc3 gene promoter and a sequence similar to the binding site 1 for the nodule trans-acting factor Nat2 were identified. From Southern blot data and from sequence analysis of genomic PCR fragments, the presence of a VfENOD-GRP3 gene family was inferred. By PCR experiments using sequence-specific primers and DNA of microisolated chromosomes as a template, this family was located on the long arm of chromosome I.
