摘　　要：[Objective] This study aimed to explore the molecular mechanism of mulberry pigment metabolism regulation. [Method] Chalconesynthase（CHS） gene was cloned from Morus（Moraceae） in silico. The amino acid sequence, physical and chemical properties, transmembrane structural domain, hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity,subcellular localization, secondary and tertiary structure of protein were predicted and analyzed by bioinformatics tools. [Result] The cDNA sequence of CHS gene was 1 365bp by splicing using the software DNAstar and it contained a complete ORF including 1 170 bp which encoded 389 amino acids. Bioinformatic analysis showed that CHS gene included specific peptide sequence RLMMYQQGCFAGGTVLR of chalcone synthase superfamily, but has no signal peptide, belonging to the non-secretory proteins, located inside of cytoplasm. Its molecular evolution is more conservative.[Conclusion] The results above provided foundation for the further studies of structure and function of CHS protein.[目的]探讨桑椹色素代谢调控的分子机理。[方法]本研究以桑科植物的EST数据库为基础,采用生物信息学实验技术,通过电子克隆方法获得了桑树查尔酮合成酶基因(CHS)。采用生物信息学在线软件,进一步对该基因编码蛋白的氨基酸组成、理化性质、跨膜结构域、疏水性/亲水性、亚细胞定位、高级结构等方面进行了预测和分析。[结果]经DNAstar软件拼接后得到的cDNA序列为1 365 bp,其开放阅读框序列为1 170 bp,编码389个氨基酸残基。CHS蛋白含有查尔酮合酶家族的特征多肽序列RLMMYQQGCFAGGTVLR,不含信号肽序列,属于非分泌型蛋白,定位于细胞质内,分子进化也较为保守。[结论]该研究结果为深入研究该蛋白的结构和功能奠定了基础。
