The invention relates to the technical field of
genetic engineering, particularly to a
ziziphus jujuba SOD (
superoxide dismutase)
gene and application thereof. A
nucleotide sequence of the
ziziphus jujuba SOD
gene is indicated in the SEQ ID (sequence identifier) NO (number):1, and an encoded
amino acid sequence of the
nucleotide sequence is indicated in the SEQ ID:2. The
ziziphus jujuba SOD
gene and the application thereof have the advantages that the
ziziphus jujuba SOD gene is segregated from a
ziziphus jujuba tree for the first time, a
plant expression vector is constructed, a transgenic
arabidopsis plant is obtained, transferring the
ziziphus jujuba SOD gene as a
target gene into the transgenic
arabidopsis plant is practically significant to plant
breed improvement, in-depth study of a mechanism of resistance of a high-resistance plant is benefited, molecular structures, expressions, functions and regulations of stress-related genes are defined beneficially, certain experimental data are provided and theoretical bases are established to further improve
stress resistance of the plants by means of fully making use of high-resistance genes, understanding of functions of SOD in ROS (
reactive oxygen species)
signal transaction of the plants is facilitated, and people are helped to understand reactive
oxygen serving as
signal molecules.
