基于脂质组学-蛋白质组学的羊栖菜幼胚脂质结构功能及脂肪酸合成调控特征分析

Analysis of lipid structure function and fatty acid synthesis regulation characteristics of young embryo of Sargassum fusiforme based on lipidomics and proteomics

  • 摘要: 羊栖菜 (Sargassum fusiforme) 是太平洋西北部近岸海域特有的多年生大型褐藻,幼胚作为其有性生殖的关键阶段,富含多种生物活性物质及特征脂肪酸。为明确羊栖菜幼胚阶段脂质结构特征、生理功能及脂肪酸合成分子机制,本研究以经纯化干燥后的羊栖菜幼胚为材料,采用UHPLC-Q Exactive质谱技术结合Lipid Search软件解析脂质组成;经TCA/丙酮沉淀、FASP酶解及Max Quant软件数据库匹配鉴定脂肪酸合成相关蛋白并进行KEGG通路注释。结果显示,羊栖菜幼胚的脂质共包含甘油磷脂、鞘脂、甘油酯、孕烯醇酮脂、脂肪酰和糖脂等6类,28种脂质亚类,其中甘油二酯 (22.044%)、磷脂酸 (19.175%)、单半乳糖甘油二酯 (18.526%) 占比最高;蛋白质组数据结果表明,羊栖菜幼胚的脂肪酸合成属于Type II FAS类型,为经典的植物脂肪酸合成途径,其以乙酰-CoA为起始,经Fab系列酶催化生成不同链长脂肪酸。本研究初步揭示了羊栖菜幼胚脂质与脂肪酸合成途径,为羊栖菜受精卵及幼胚的光合作用机制解析及资源高值化利用提供基础理论参考。

     

    Abstract: Sargassum fusiforme is a perennial large brown alga unique to the coastal waters of the northwestern Pacific. The young embryos of this alga play a crucial role in its sexual reproduction and are rich in various bioactive substances and characteristic fatty acids. To clarify the lipid structure characteristics, physiological functions, and fatty acid synthesis molecular mechanisms of the young embryos of S. fusiforme, we used purified and dried young embryos of S. fusiforme as the material, and employed UHPLC-Q Exactive mass spectrometry technology combined with Lipid Search software to analyze the lipid composition. Proteins related to fatty acid synthesis were identified by TCA/acetone precipitation, FASP digestion and database matching with Max Quant software, followed by KEGG pathway annotation. The results show that the lipids of S. fusiforme young embryos contained six classes including glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids, glycerides, pregnenolone lipids, fatty acids, and glycolipids, and 28 lipid subcategories. Among them, glycerol diesters (22.044%), phosphatidic acids (19.175%), and monohexosylglycerol diesters (18.526%) accounted for the highest proportions. The lipid composition of S. fusiforme young embryos included glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids, glycerides, pregnenolone lipids, fatty acids, and glycolipids, with 28 lipid subcategories. The fatty acid synthesis of S. fusiforme young embryos belongs to Type II FAS type, which is the classic plant fatty acid synthesis pathway. Starting from acetyl-CoA, fatty acids with different chain lengths were generated catalyzed by Fab series enzymes. This study initially reveals the lipid and fatty acid synthesis pathways in the young embryos of S. fusiforme, providing a fundamental theoretical reference for the analysis of photosynthesis mechanisms in the fertilized eggs and young embryos of Sargassum fusiforme and the high-value utilization of its resources.
