Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) é o agente etiológico causador de doenças em uma grande variedade de cultivos de grande importância econômica, causando a c1orose variegada dos citros, uma das doenças mais danosas à indústria de citros no Brasil. Os genomas de algumas cepas deste fitopatógeno foram completamente seqüenciados promovendo assim estudos funcionais do genoma em larga escala. Neste trabalho nós nos propusemos a investigar o perfil de transcrição de Xf através da técnica microarranjos (no título da dissertação microarrays, mas a partir de agora usaremos microaarranjos) de DNA usando todo o genoma do fitopatógeno e cultivando-a sob meio definido variando a concentração de glicose. O objetivo inicial deste trabalho era observar se Xf comportava-se da mesma forma que Xac, que tem a expressão de goma aumentada devido ao aumento da concentração de glicose do meio. Nossas análises revelaram que enquanto os transcritos relacionados à goma não se mostraram afetados com a concentração de glicose, genes que codificam para análogos a Colicina-V e precursores de fimbria foram induzidos em alta concentração de glicose. Baseados nestes resultados, nós propusemos um modelo de mecanismo de produção e defesa contra a Colicina em Xf.

Sugarcane is an important culture for Brazil that holds almost half of all worldwide productivity. Plants face many challenges, because of biotic and abiotic stresses presents in the production field, which could prevent plants from reaching their genetic potential. As consequence, those stresses can generate Reactive Oxygen Species – ROS – that can cause damages on DNA. Another consequence of stress is the early-flowering process, which contributes for a reduction on yield. In this context, the aim of this work is to characterize ScMUTM1 and ScMUTM2, two DNA glycosylases belonging to base excision repair pathway; and identify genes potentially related to stress and DNA repair in two sugarcane cultivars with contrasting flowering phenotypes. The characterization of the DNA glycosylases included the construction of vector to over express the recombinant proteins ScMUTM1 and ScMUTM2; they will be used in a near future to purification of these proteins and use in enzymatic assays. It was also made a phylogenetic reconstruction of this gene in plants and analysis of its promoter. With the phylogenetic analysis, it is possible to observe the presence of these genes grouped inside a branch with monocots and another one with dicots. This suggests that the duplication of this gene probably occurred after the separation of these two groups. The analysis of the promotor of MUTM shows of the presence of stress-related regulatory motifs at ScMUTM2 promoter, when compared with ScMUTM1. This may suggests that ScMUTM1 might be suffering sub functionalization process. After the analysis of microarrays data, it is observed an up-regulation from some stress-related genes in one of the conditions analyzed, related to early flowering process.
