A novel Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. developmental mutant,waldmeister (wam), is described. This mutant was found in theprogeny arising from an Ac-Ds tagging experiment, but does notappear to be tagged by an introduced transposon. This recessivenuclear mutation maps between GAPB and ap1 on chromosome 1 andshows extreme morphological and physiological changes in bothfloral and vegetative tissues. Changes to the vegetative phenotypeinclude altered leaf morphology, multiple rosettes, stem fasciation,retarded senescence and disturbed geotropic growth. Changesto the floral phenotype include delayed flowering, increasednumber of inflorescences, determinate inflorescences, alterednumber and morphology of floral organs, chimeric floral organs,and ectopic ovules . wam was crossed to a number of previouslydescribed floral mutants: apetela 2, apetela 3, pistillata,agamous, and leafy. The phenotype of the double mutant was ineach case additive. In the case of agamous, however, the indeterminaterepetitive floral structure of agamous was lacking, emphasizingthe determinate inflorescence growth of wam. The extreme phenotypeof the wam mutant is suggestive of a disturbance to a gene ofglobal importance in the regulation of plant growth and development. Key words: Arabidopsis thaliana, waldmeister, developmental mutant, flower mutant 相似文献

Conditions for maximising transient expression of GUS in leaf mesophyll protoplasts of Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype C24 were investigated. It was found that the factors most influencing expression levels, with optimum levels in parenthesis, were plasmid DNA quantity (100 g per 5 × 105 protoplasts), inclusion of carrier DNA (50 g), PEG pH and amount (pH above 6, and total PEG concentration at least 9% w/w) and the topological form of the DNA. Linearised plasmid DNA with long flanking sequences 3 and 5 to the marker gene yielded the highest levels of GUS expression.Abbreviations 2,4-d

Nearly 7000 Arabidopsis thaliana -expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from 10 cDNA libraries have been sequenced, of which almost 5000 non-redundant tags have been submitted to the EMBL data bank. The quality of the cDNA libraries used is analysed. Similarity searches in international protein data banks have allowed the detection of significant similarities to a wide range of proteins from many organisms. Alignment with ESTs from the rice systematic sequencing project has allowed the detection of amino acid motifs which are conserved between the two organisms, thus identifying tags to genes encoding highly conserved proteins. These genes are candidates for a common framework in genome mapping projects in different plants. 相似文献

The molecular basis for neuronal death in prion disease is not established, but putative pathogenic roles for both disease-related prion protein (PrP(Sc)) and accumulated cytosolic PrP(C) have been proposed. Here we report that only prion-infected neuronal cells become apoptotic after mild inhibition of the proteasome, and this is strictly dependent upon sustained propagation of PrP(Sc). Whereas cells overexpressing PrP(C) developed cytosolic PrP(C) aggregates, this did not cause cell death. In contrast, only in prion-infected cells, mild proteasome impairment resulted in the formation of large cytosolic perinuclear aggresomes that contained PrP(Sc), heat shock chaperone 70, ubiquitin, proteasome subunits, and vimentin. Similar structures were found in the brains of prion-infected mice. PrP(Sc) aggresome formation was directly associated with activation of caspase 3 and 8, resulting in apoptosis. These data suggest that neuronal propagation of prions invokes a neurotoxic mechanism involving intracellular formation of PrP(Sc) aggresomes. This, in turn, triggers caspase-dependent apoptosis and further implicates proteasome dysfunction in the pathogenesis of prion diseases. 相似文献

Endogenous abscisic acid and wheat germ agglutinin content in wheat grains during development 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Peter-Christian Morris 《Physiologia plantarum》1989,77(4):507-511
Abscisic acid (ABA) and wheat germ agglutinin content of immature wheat grains and embryos was determined by immunoassay throughout the development of a field-grown wheat crop ( Triticum aestivum cv. Timmo). Wheat germ agglutinin accumulation in the embryo was not preceded by an increase in endogenous abscisic acid amount or concentration in either embryos or grains. At a later stage in development the endogenous concentration of abscisic acid in both embryos and grains was found to be two orders of magnitude lower than the endogenous levels required to inhibit precocious germination and promote wheat germ agglutinin accumulation in excised embryos cultured in vitro. These findings are discussed in the context of the control of embryo development in vivo by both ABA and the water status of the grain and embryo. 相似文献

The nursing vocalisation of lactating sows is an important part of the complex nursing and suckling behaviour of domestic
pigs (Sus scrofa). It helps to lead the young through the several phases of a nursing episode. A total of 135 suckling piglets were investigated
regarding their reactions to different vocalisations and sounds successively replayed in combined choice/open-field experiments.
Two piglet samples were used to determine the impact of age (sample 1: weeks 1 and 5, n=93) and previous test experience of naive older piglets (sample 2: week 5, n=42) on their behavioural responses. In the 1st week after birth, the nursing vocalisation of sows released an initial generalised
approach and contact response in the young, indicating high motivation to gain nutritional or social support. Close to the
sound source, the piglets then strongly preferred the nursing vocalisation produced by their own mothers compared to that
produced by another, unrelated and unfamiliar sow, or an artificial sound composed of similar frequencies as the nurse grunting,
or a control without sound. However, at the end of the suckling period (5-week-old piglets) no clear differences in the reactions
to the sounds could be identified. Moreover, the lack of a clear response at week 5 seems largely independent of any earlier
test experience of the piglets. As well in the 1st as in the 5th week the piglets showed a decrease in open-field activity
when sow grunting was present, indicating that the replay of the nursing vocalisation might have some calming effect.

Abscisic acid (ABA) participates in the control of diverse physiological processes. The characterization of deficient mutants has clarified the ABA biosynthetic pathway in higher plants. Deficient mutants also lead to a revaluation of the extent of ABA action during seed development and in the response of vegetative tissues to environmental stress. Although ABA receptor(s) have not yet been identified, considerable progress has been recently made in the characterization of more downstream elements of the ABA regulatory network. ABA controls stomatal aperture by rapidly regulating identified ion transporters in guard cells, and the details of the underlying signalling pathways start to emerge. ABA actions in other cell types involve modifications of gene expression. The promoter analysis of ABA-responsive genes has revealed a diversity of cis-acting elements and a few associated trans-acting factors have been isolated. Finally, characterization of mutants defective in ABA responsiveness, and molecular cloning of the corresponding loci, has proven to be a powerful approach to dissect the molecular nature of ABA signalling cascades. 相似文献

Gene targeting in Arabidopsis thaliana. 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Summary Gene targeting of a chromosomally integrated transgene in Arabidopsis thaliana is reported. A chimeric gene consisting of the promoter of the 35S RNA of CaMV, the polyadenylation signal of the octopine synthase gene and the coding region of the bacterial hygromycin phosphotransferase gene (hpt), which was rendered non-functional by deletion of 19 bp, was introduced into the genome of A. thaliana using Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer. A total of 3.46 x 108 protoplasts isolated from 17 independent transgenic Arabidopsis lines harbouring the defective chimeric hpt gene were transformed via direct gene transfer using various DNA forms containing only the intact coding region of the hpt gene. Out of 150 hygromycin-resistant colonies appearing in the course of these experiments, four were the result of targeted recombination of the incoming DNA with the defective chromosomal locus as revealed by PCR and Southern blot analysis. Comparison with the number of transformants obtained when an hpt gene controlled by a promoter and terminator from the nopaline synthase gene was employed results in a maximal ratio of homologous to non-homologous transformation in A. thaliana of 1 x 10–4. 相似文献

The structure of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) is well characterized, but the exact location of binding sites for retinol and (−)-epigallocatechingallate (EGCG) is still a subject of controversy. Here we report that the genetic β-LG variants A, B and C have different numbers of binding sites for retinol (almost completely incorporated into the calyx), as well as for EGCG (exclusively bound on the surface), and β-LG A with the most binding sites for EGCG, which include Tyr20, Phe151 and His59. Upon heat related unfolding, new unspecific binding sites emerge, which are comparable in number and affinity for retinol and for EGCG, and in the three genetic variants A, B and C. The findings of our study provide new insights into the use of β-LG as nanotransporter. 相似文献
