| To better understand gene expression at very low levels, we have designed a method to eliminate cDNA clones representing abundant mRNAs. A cDNA library for drought-stressed hot pepper (Capsicum annuum) (Choi et al., 2002) underwent double-negative screening, once with probes made from a drought-stressed plant, the second time, with probes from a non-stressed plant. The cDNA clones that showed very weak or negative signals were isolated for further analysis, which resulted in 1399 cDNA clones from about 20,000 screened clones. When nucleotide sequences were determined, we obtained 1142 tentative unique genes, with a redundancy rate of 20.41%. An homology database search for the deduced amino acid sequences revealed that about 79% of the cDNA clones could not be matched for functioning with previously characterized sequences. However, when these uncategorized clones were subjected to classification based on functional domains, most could be cited. Notably, clones with possible functions in RNA transport, protein synthesis, and regulation of protein activity showed a dramatic increase in appearance while those coding for transposable elements, viral proteins, and plasmid proteins occupied a much smaller portion compared with those in the Arabidopsis thaliana genome. In addition, those coding for proteins targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum were dramatically more abundant in our clones compared with the Arabidopsis database. |
