Magnolia sieboldii K. Koch is endemic to China and has high medicinal and ornamental values. However, its seed exhibits morphophysiological dormancy, and the molecular mechanisms of which are not clearly understood. To reveal the regulation mechanism of the ABA signal in seed dormancy, the M. sieboldii ABA receptor Pyrabactin Resistance 1 (PYR1) gene was cloned and analyzed. Analysis of the MsPYR1 sequence analysis showed that the full-length cDNA contained a complete open reading frame of 987 bp and encoded a predicted protein of 204 amino acid residues. The protein had a relative molecular weight of 22.661 kDa and theoretical isoelectric point of 5.01. The transcript levels of MsPYR1 were immediately upregulated at 16 DAI and then decreased at 40 DAI. The highest transcript level of MsPYR1 was found in the dry seeds, indicating that the MsPYR1 gene may play an important role in the regulation of dormancy. The MsPYR1 gene cDNA was successfully expressed in E. coli Rosetta (DE3), and the protein bands were consistent with the prediction. The Anti-MsPYR1antibody could detect the expression of MsPYR1 in M. sieboldii. The results provided a foundation for further study of the function of the MsPYR1 gene.ABBREVIATIONSABA: Abscisic acid; MPD: morphophysiological; PYR1: Pyrabactin Resistance1; PYL: Pyr1-Like; RCAR: Regulatory Components of Aba Receptors; PP2C: protein phosphatases 2C; SnRK2: sucrose non-fermenting1-related protein kinase2; DAI: day after imbibition; NCBI: National Center for Biotechnology Information; BCA: Bicinchoninic acid; CDD: Conserved Domains.
