Definitions
- the present invention relates to a new plant gene SGS3 and its use for the preparation of genetically modified plants.
- heterologous gene expression will depend on various factors, including the locus of integration of the heterologous gene in the genome of the transformed plant and so-called phenomena of "silencing". It is indeed known to the state of the art as the expression of a heterologous gene in a plant can be inhibited completely or partly in the progeny of the transformed plants regenerated, even said the gene s is expressed correctly in the regenerated plant coming directly from the transformed cell.
- the introduced heterologous gene can sometimes undergo epigenetic inactivation (inactivation being accompanied by any change in sequence). When the genes have homologies with genes of the host organism, the inactivation can also affect the expression of these host genes and generate deleterious effects for the organism (co-inactivation). Two distinct mechanisms of inactivation have been identified in higher plants, translating to either a transcription blocking (transcriptional inactivation) or by RNA degradation (post-transcriptional inactivation).
- GUSs under the control of the CamV 35S promoter showed inactivation of the transgene regardless of the number of copies of the transgene inserted at the locus.
- the phenomenon takes place during the development of each generation indicating a meiotic reversibility.
- Haploid plants from the anther culture of inactivated homozygous transformants carrying a single copy of the transgene showed gene reactivation followed by inactivation during development, suggesting that meiosis was necessary to initiate the reactivation process, but that initiation of inactivation during development did not require fertilization, and was not the result of interaction between different copies of the transgene.
- run-on experiments have shown that the phenomenon occurs at the post-transcriptional level (Elmayan and Vaucheret, Plant J. 9: 787-797,1996).
- SGS3 a new plant gene, called SGS3, involved in the phenomena of post-transcriptional inactivation in transgenic plants and in the resistance of plants to viral infections.

- Example 1 Isolation and Identification of the SGS3 Gene from Arabidopsis
- the mutant SGS3 (affected in the SGS3 gene) was obtained using the same experimental protocol as that which allowed the isolation of the mutants sgsl and sgs2 (Elmayan et al. Plant Cell 10: 1747-1757, 1998).
- the starting line was the Ll line.
- Ll is a transgenic line obtained by transformation of plants of the Columbia ecotype by construction 23b (Elmayan and Vaucheret, Plant J. 9: 787-797, 1996).
- the L1 line has only one transgenic locus.
- the glucuronidase activity in the L1 line is 4000 nmol of 4-methylumbelliferone per minute and per microgram of total proteins in the first days of development.
- the GUS activity in these 6 mutant lines, 1 month after germination, is between 2500 and 3500 nmol of 4-methylumbelliferone per minute and per microgram of total proteins. .
- the GUS activity in these mutant lines, 1 month after germination, is between 2,500 and 3,500 nmol of 4-methylumbelliferone per minute and per microgram of total proteins.

- the GUS activity is multiplied by a factor of 300 in the sgs2 mutants compared to the L1 line while the accumulation of mRNA is multiplied by a factor of 250.
- the transcription rate is only multiplied by a factor 2.6 compared to the Ll line.
- Line 2a3 is a transgenic line of Arabidopsis thaliana resulting from the transformation of a plant of the Columbia ecotype by construct 2a (Elmayan et al., Plant Cell 10: 1747-1757, 1998) containing the transcribed part of the gene NIA2 from Arabidopsis encoding nitrate reductase under the control of the 35S promoter and the hygromycin hpt resistance gene. All the plants of the 2a3 line homozygous for the 2a construction have a post-transcriptional inactivation of the Nia2 genes (transgenic and endogenous) leading to chlorosis of the plant and then to its death.
- the transgenic locus 2a3 When the transgenic locus 2a3 is in the heterozygous state, only part of the plants undergo post-transcriptional inactivation. The stage at which this inactivation takes place varies from one plant to another. In some plants inactivation is late enough to allow the production of pollen and seeds.
- the hybrid plants resulting from the cross between the mutant sgs3-2 and the line 2a3 were cultivated in the greenhouse and the seeds for self-fertilization were harvested. These were sown in the greenhouse and the plants obtained without chlorosis were kept to harvest their seeds for self-fertilization. We then sowed the different lots of seeds on an agar medium containing 20 mg / l of hygromycin.

- the DNA sequence inserted at the BamHI site of the plasmid pBin + and which led to the isolation of the bacterial strain 356 was determined. Subclones of clone 356 were made in the vector pBin + and the same sgs3-2 2a3 line was transformed by these subclones in order to determine those capable of restoring the function of the SGS3 gene. The smallest subclone capable of restoring this function constitutes the SGS3 gene as described in this patent. By computer analysis the ORS of SGS3 could be predicted. The sequence of the cDNA containing the ORF of the SGS3 gene and therefore the position of the promoter, terminator and intronic sequences of SGS3 were verified after having isolated and cloned this sequence.
- PCR was carried out on the genomic DNA of these 5 mutants using the primers p356AD 'and P356Y' (see example 1). This reaction allows the amplification of the entire SGS3 gene. The fragment amplified by this PCR reaction was sequenced.
- the nucleotide sequence thus obtained is then treated with the enzyme “klenow” to generate “blunt” ends at the ends of the amplified sequence.
- the sequence is then cloned between the 35S promoter and the cauliflower mosaic virus terminator at the Smal site of the vector pRTl 00.
- the clones are selected such that the sequence corresponding to p356AD 'is located near the 35S promoter.
- clones are selected such that the sequence corresponding to p356Y 'is located near the 35S promoter.
- This Assgs3 construction allows the expression of an anti-sense mRNA of the SGS3 mRNA.
- Example 4 Transformation of Plants The expression cassettes constructed as described above are then introduced into a binary vector to allow their introduction via Agrobacterium tumefaciens into plants.
- the binary vector used is the plasmid pBIN + (Van Engelen et al., Transgenic Research 4, 288-290, 1995). This is done by digesting the constructions obtained above with the enzyme SphI (which releases the expression cassettes) and by ligating the product of this digestion with the plasmid pBIN + digested with the enzyme SphI.
- Example 5 Inhibition of Expression of the SGS3 Gene by Antisense
- the complete cDNA of the SGS3 gene was cloned in antisense orientation (aSGS3) between the 35S promoter (p35S) and the 35S terminator (t35S).
