Genome-wide comparative analysis of the codon usage patterns in plants

Codon usage analysis has been a classical area of study for decades and is important for evolution, mRNA translation, and new gene discovery. Recently, genome sequencing has made it possible to perform studies of the entire genome in plant kingdoms. The base composition of the coding sequence, codon usage pattern, codon pairs, and related indicators of relative synonymous codon usage (RSCU), including the Fop, Nc, RSCU, CAI and GC contents, were analyzed. We found that the GC content of single-celled algae is the highest, whereas dicotyledons are the lowest. Moreover, the base composition of plants is similar within the same family. In addition, the GC content of the second base of the codon is lower than the first and third base. In conclusion, the codon usage characteristics are opposite in Gramineae, single-celled algae, fern and dicotyledon, moss, and Pinaceae. Furthermore, the degree of codon usage bias is decreasing with evolution. Therefore, we hypothesize that the lower the plants, the more that they must optimize codons and that higher plants no longer need to optimize codons.

Nuclear matrix attachment regions (MARs) regulate the higher-order organization of chromatin and affect the expression of their flanking genes. In this study, a tobacco MAR, TM6, was isolated and demonstrated to remarkably increase the expression of four different promoters that drive gusA gene and adjacent nptII gene. In turn, this expression enhanced the transformation frequency of transgenic tobacco. Deletion analysis of topoisomerase II-binding site, AT-rich element, and MAR recognition signature (MRS) showed that MRS has the highest contribution (61.7%) to the TM6 sequence-mediated transcription activation. Micrococcal nuclease (MNase) accessibility assay showed that 35S and NOS promoter regions with TM6 are more sensitive than those without TM6. The analysis also revealed that TM6 reduces promoter DNA methylation which can affect the gusA expression. In addition, two to-bacco chromatin-associated proteins, NtMBP1 and NtHMGB, isolated using a yeast one-hybrid system, specifically bound to the TM6II-1 region (761 bp to 870 bp) and to the MRS element in the TM6II-2 (934 bp to 1,021 bp) region, respectively. We thus suggested that TM6 mediated its chromatin opening and chromatin accessibility of its flanking promoters with consequent enhancement of transcription.
