柿果实采后软化过程中细胞壁组分代谢和超微结构的变化

柿果实采后果胶酯酶活性迅速上升,其活性与果实硬度的下降呈明显的负相关。多聚半乳糖醛酸酶活性增加缓慢,但其活性与果实硬度的下降无明显相关性。β-半乳糖苷酶活性迅速增加,其活性与果实硬度的下降呈明显的负相关。纤维素酶活性呈逐渐上升趋势,与果实硬度的下降也呈明显的负相关。伴随着细胞壁水解酶活性的增加,果实原果胶和纤维素含量迅速下降,而水溶性果胶含量则迅速上升。柿果刚采收时细胞壁结构完整,3d后细胞壁中胶层基本被溶解,甚至初生壁也局部发生降解。

以丰香和红丰草莓为试材,对果实发育成熟过程中细胞壁水解酶活性和细胞壁成份变化进行了研究．结果表明：半乳糖苷酶和α-甘露糖苷酶活性随草莓果实成熟而提高,葡萄糖苷酶活性不随草莓果实成熟而提高．随着果实发育成熟,纤维素酶活性、果胶酶活性不断提高．果实中未检测到内切多聚半乳糖醛酸酶活性,外切多聚半乳糖醛酸酶活性变化不随果实成熟软化而提高．随果实发育成熟,细胞壁中可溶性果胶和半纤维素增加,而离子结合果胶和共价结合果胶及纤维素减少．     

细胞壁代谢与琯溪蜜柚果实成熟过程汁胞粒化的关系

以易发生汁胞粒化的老龄树和不易发生汁胞粒化的适龄树的琯溪蜜柚（Citrus grandis（L．）Osbeck‘Guanximiyou’1果实为材料,研究了果实成熟过程中汁胞粒化发生与细胞壁代谢的关系。结果表明：老龄树果实的汁胞粒化指数随着果实成熟而上升。在汁胞粒化发生过程中,汁胞维持较低的细胞壁降解酶[果胶甲酯酶（PE）、多聚半乳糖醛酸酶（PG）、纤维素酶（Cx）]活性,保持较高的细胞壁物质（原果胶、纤维素、半纤维素）含量;尤其在汁胞粒化的起动阶段和加快阶段,纤维素、半纤维素含量极显著增加。相反,适龄树果实的汁胞粒化指数在果实成熟过程中变化不大,汁胞中细胞壁降解酶活性较高,促进原果胶、纤维素、半纤维素等细胞壁物质的降解,保持较低的细胞壁物质含量,使汁胞发育正常、柔软多汁。这说明PE、PG、Cx活性和原果胶、纤维素、半纤维素含量与錧溪蜜柚汁胞粒化密切相关。     

1-甲基环丙烯处理对采后杨桃果实软化和细胞壁代谢的影响

为探讨1-甲基环丙烯(1-methylcyclopropene, 1-MCP)延缓采后杨桃果实软化的作用机理,本文研究了0.6 μL/L 1-MCP处理对在(15±1)℃、相对湿度90%下贮藏的‘香蜜’甜杨桃(Averrhoa carambola Linn. cv.

苦瓜果实不同发育时期细胞壁组分及相关酶活性的差异分析

为了解苦瓜(Momordica charantia)果实品质差异的原因，以厚肉型种质‘LX1-3’和薄肉型种质‘ZK54’为材料，对果实发育过程中细胞壁组分含量及相关酶活性进行了分析。结果表明，花后17 d，‘LX1-3’果实的横径(FD)、腔径(FLD)、果肉厚度(PT)、单瓜鲜质量(FFW)和干质量(FDW)均超过‘ZK54’。细胞壁组分和酶活性表现品种间差异，水溶性果胶含量整体水平表现为厚肉型高于薄肉型，且与PT、FFW和FDW呈显著正相关；花后17~23 d ‘LX1-3’的半纤维素(HCE)和纤维素(CE)含量均高于‘ZK54’；花后3 d，两种质的β-半乳糖苷酶(β-Gal)和β-木糖苷酶(β-Xyl)活性显著高于其他3个时期，多聚半乳糖醛酸酶(PG)、β-Gal和果胶酶变化趋势与离子型果胶和共价型果胶含量的变化一致。β-Gal、β-Xyl和纤维素酶活性与5个生长性状间呈极显著/显著负相关，PG与FD、FLD和PT呈极显著/显著负相关。因此，细胞壁组分和酶活性与果实发育密切相关，β-Xyl和β-Gal在苦瓜早期发育中发挥主要效应，而HCE和CE对果实中后期发育影响较大。     

Cell wall integrity: Targeted post-synthetic modifications to reveal its role in plant growth and defense against pathogens

The plant cell wall, a dynamic network of polysaccharides and glycoproteins of significant compositional and structural complexity, functions in plant growth, development and stress responses. In recent years, the existence of plant cell wall integrity (CWI) maintenance mechanisms has been demonstrated, but little is known about the signaling pathways involved, or their components. Examination of key mutants has shed light on the relationships between cell wall remodeling and plant cell responses, indicating a central role for the regulatory network that monitors and controls cell wall performance and integrity. In this review, we present a short overview of cell wall composition and discuss post-synthetic cell wall modification as a valuable approach for studying CWI perception and signaling pathways.     

植物激素在植物细胞壁扩展中的作用

细胞壁不仅是植物细胞结构的重要组成部分,而且控制着细胞的大小、形状和生长。细胞经有丝分裂后,原生质体吸水膨胀,细胞壁重塑,新生壁物质合成,纤维素定向沉积等引发细胞壁生长。在这些过程中,乙烯（ethylene,ET）、生长素（auxin）、赤霉素（gibberellin,GA）、油菜素甾醇（brassinosteroids,BR）等植物激素调控细胞壁生长相关酶类如纤维素合酶复合体（cellulose synthase A,CESA）、扩展素（expansin,EXP）、木葡聚糖内糖基转移酶／水解酶（xyloglucan endotran glucosylase／hydrolase,XET／XTH）的表达活性,进而调控细胞壁扩展,促使细胞壁的生长。     

Cell wall traits that influence plant development,immunity, and bioconversion

The architecture of the plant cell wall is highly dynamic, being substantially re‐modeled during growth and development. Cell walls determine the size and shape of cells and contribute to the functional specialization of tissues and organs. Beyond the physiological dynamics, the wall structure undergoes changes upon biotic or abiotic stresses. In this review several cell wall traits, mainly related to pectin, one of the major matrix components, will be discussed in relation to plant development, immunity and industrial bioconversion of biomass, especially for energy production. Plant cell walls are a source of oligosaccharide fragments with a signaling function for both development and immunity. Sensing cell wall damage, sometimes through the perception of released damage‐associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), is crucial for some developmental and immunity responses. Methodological advances that are expected to deepen our knowledge of cell wall (CW) biology will also be presented.     

Synergistic interaction of the two paralogous Arabidopsis genes LRX1 and LRX2 in cell wall formation during root hair development

LRR-extensins (LRX) form a family of structural cell wall proteins containing a receptor-like domain. The functional analysis of Arabidopsis LRX1 has shown that it is involved in cell morphogenesis of root hairs. In this work, we have studied LRX2, a paralog of LRX1. LRX2 expression is mainly found in roots and is responsive to factors promoting or repressing root hair formation. The function of LRX1 and LRX2 was tested by the expression of a truncated LRX2 and different LRX1/LRX2 chimaeric proteins. Using complementation of the lrx1 phenotype as the parameter for protein function, our experiments indicate that LRX1 and LRX2 are functionally similar but show differences in their activity. Genetic analysis revealed that single lrx2 mutants do not show any defect in root hair morphogenesis, but synergistically interact with the lrx1 mutation. lrx1/lrx2 double mutants have a significantly enhanced lrx1 phenotype, resulting in frequent rupture of the root hairs soon after their initiation. Analysis of the root hair cell wall ultrastructure by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed the formation of osmophilic aggregates within the wall, as well as local disintegration of the wall structure in the double mutant, but not in wild-type plants. Our results indicate that LRX1 and LRX2 have overlapping functions in root hair formation, and that they likely regulate cell morphogenesis by promoting proper development of the cell wall.     

N-Hydroxides, aminotriazole, and cyanide activate ribulosebisphosphate carboxylase formation in Alcaligenes eutrophus

Abstract The pole of the Gram-positive rod Bacillus subtilis is formed by the construction of a crosswall which is then split. The newly exteriorized wall comes under stress and stretches to form the developing pole. A model is proposed to account for the even bisection of the septum. It is based on an extension of our previous finding that autolysin action on living cells is increased when the protonmotive force is dissipated in any of a number of ways. The first site of enzymatic attack is that region of the peripheral wall that has become farther removed from the cytoplasmic membrane as the result of the envagination of the developing septum. Later, enzymatic action lead to the cleavage midway between the portions of cytoplasmic membrane delimiting the septum as this region is farthest removed from the source of protonmotive force.     

细胞壁在植物胚胎发生中的作用

Microfibril orientation in differentiating and maturing fibre and parenchyma cell walls in culms of bamboo (Phyllostachys viridi-glaucescens (Garr.) Riv. & Riv.)

Results of trials using chemical and enzymatic wall extractants for the removal of matrix materials for in situ observations of newly deposited microfibrils are described. Observations were then made of the orientation of microfibrils on the inner walls of differentiating and maturing fibres and parenchyma cells under the FESEM. Orientation changes were similar in both cell types. During very early primary wall development, deposition of microfibrils was in more or less axial alignment, which was later superseded by microfibrils in transverse orientation (90^o to the long axis). A transverse orientation of microfibrils remained throughout much of primary wall synthesis, until an abrupt shift occurred to a sloped orientation during late primary wall synthesis. Microfibrils of the first secondary wall layer were in axial alignment or steeply sloped. In subsequent secondary wall deposition there was an alternation between a transverse and a sloped or axial alignment in maturing fibres and parenchyma cells.     

Mannuronan C-5 epimerase activity in protoplasts of Laminaria digitata

Biosynthesis of alginate in algae may be studied by following the cell wall regeneration of brown seaweed protoplasts in culture. The enzyme mannuronan C-5 epimerase will control the composition of the alginate being synthetized.Freshly isolated protoplasts from the thallus of young Laminaria digitata plants showed only low expression of this enzyme. However, after prolonged periods in culture, this activity increased 15-fold. The synthesis of C-5 epimerase by the protoplasts is probably essential for the formation of a new cell wall.After cellular disruption by osmotic shock and centrifugation, most of the epimerase activity resided in the pellet fraction. This may indicate that the enzyme is membrane associated.
