Isolation and characterization of six pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins of Samsun NN tobacco 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
The purification to homogeneity of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins R and S from Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun NN leaves has been achieved by using a combination of conventional and high-performance chromatographic supports. The same procedure allowed the purification and the characterization of four other proteins which displayed some properties characteristic of tobacco PR proteins and were shown to accumulate in tobacco leaves in response to virus infection. They can be, therefore, considered as new tobacco PR proteins which we designate as PR-s1,-s2,-r1 and-r2. The relative electrophoretic mobilities (Rf) under non-denaturing conditions were estimated to 0.30 for PR-r1 and-r2, 0.25 for Pr-R, 0.20 for PR-s1 and-s2 and 0.15 for PR-S. On SDS gels PR proteins R and S possessed the same apparent molecular weight (M
r 24000) as did PR-proteins s1 and r1 (M
r 14500) and PR-s2 and-r2 (M
r 13000). However, proteins s1, s2, r1 and r2 had identical electrophoretic mobilities on SDS gels when the loading sample buffer contained no reducing agent. Polyclonal antisera were raised against PR proteins R and S and used in immunoblotting experiments. Proteins R and S were shown to be serologically closely related. No cross-reaction was detected with any of the four new tobacco PR proteins r1, r2, s1 and s2 or with the previously described PR proteins, i.e. PR-1a,-1b,-1c,-2,-N,-O,-P and-Q. 相似文献

Recently, four chitinases have been detected in tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) infected tobacco: two acidic chitinases that were identified as pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins P and Q and two basic chitinases (Legrand et al., Proc.Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, in press). Here, it was shown that P and Q are closely serologically related but not related to other known acidic tobacco PR proteins. Antisera to P and Q were used to characterize translation products of TMV-induced mRNAs that were hybrid-selected with cDNA clones described previously (Hooft van Huijsduijnen et al., EMBO J 5: 2057–2061, 1986). In this way cDNA clones corresponding to the acidic and basic chitinases were identified. The partial amino acid sequences of the acidic and basic tobacco chitinases that were represented in the clones, showed an approximately 70% homology to each other and to the sequence of a bean chitinase. Although the acidic and basic chitinases differ in apparent molecular weight, they were found to have homologous C-termini.Hybridization of cDNA probes to genomic blots indicated that the acidic and basic chitinases are each encoded by two to four genes in the amphidiploid genome of Samsun NN tobacco. A similar complexity was found for the genes encoding the tobacco PR protein that is homologous to the sweet-tasting protein thaumatin and to the bifunctional trypsin/-amylase inhibitor from maize. 相似文献

In tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) several acidic and basic apoplastic pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins are induced upon inoculation with virulent or avirulent races of Cladosporium fulvum (Cooke) (syn. Fulvia fulva [Cooke] Cif). One of the most predominant and best characterized tomato PR proteins is P14, a basic protein that shows homology to the tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) PR-1 protein family. To investigate whether, by analogy with these tobacco PR-1 proteins, P14 also belongs to a family of differently charged isomers, the abundantly occurring PR proteins with molecular masses around 15 kilodaltons (kD) were purified from apoplastic fluids isolated from C. fulvum-infected tomato. Three basic proteins migrating similarly to P14 on sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels were purified to homogeneity by gel filtration followed by high resolution liquid chromatography. Two proteins (15.5 kD, isoelectric point [pl] 10.9 and 10.7 appeared to be serologically related to each other and to the tobacco PR-1 proteins. A third protein (15 kD, pl 10.4) was not serologically related to any other tomato PR protein but was found to be related to PR-R from tobacco. 相似文献

Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) leaves were found to contain an extracellular proteinase that endoproteolytically cleaves tobacco pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins. This proteinase was partially purified from tobacco leaves and characterized as an aspartyl proteinase with a pH optimum around pH 3 and a molecular mass of 36,000 to 40,000 daltons. In vitro, the enzyme cleaved purified tobacco and tomato PR proteins into discrete fragments. The characteristics of this proteinase were similar to pepsin and identical to those displayed by a previously described tomato 37-kilodalton aspartyl proteinase active against tomato PR proteins (I Rodrigo, P Vera, V Conejero [1989] Eur J Biochem 184: 663-669), suggesting that these extracellular proteases could play a role in a conserved mechanism for PR protein turnover in plants. 相似文献

The response of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Xanthinc) plants, epigenetically suppressed for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) activity, was studied following infection by tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). These plants contain a bean PAL2 transgene in the sense orientation, and have reduced endogenous tobacco PAL mRNA and suppressed production of phenylpropanoid products. Lesions induced by TMV infection of PAL-suppressed plants are markedly different in appearance from those induced on control plants that have lost the bean transgene through segregation, with a reduced deposition of phenofics. However, they develop at the same rate as on control tobacco, and pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins are induced normally upon primary infection. The levels of free salicylic acid (SA) produced in primary inoculated leaves of PAL-suppressed plants are approximately fourfold lower than in control plants after 84 h, and a similar reduction is observed in systemic leaves. PR proteins are not induced in systemic leaves of PAL-suppressed plants, and secondary infection with TMV does not result in the restriction of lesion size and number seen in control plants undergoing systemic acquired resistance (SAR). In grafting experiments between wild-type and PAL-suppressed tobacco, the SAR response can be transmitted from a PAL-suppressed root-stock, but SAR is not observed if the scion is PAL-suppressed. This indicates that, even if SA is the systemic signal for establishment of SAR, the amount of pre-existing phenylpropanoid compounds in systemic leaves, or the ability to synthesize further phenylpropanoids in response to the systemic signal, may be important for the establishment of SAR. Treatment of PAL-suppressed plants with dichloro-isonicotinic acid (INA) induces PR protein expression and SAR against subsequent TMV infection. However, treatment with SA, while inducing PR proteins, only partially restores SAR, further suggesting that de novo synthesis of SA, and/or the presence or synthesis of other phenylpropanoids, is required for expression of resistance in systemic leaves. 相似文献

Bacillus pumilus strain EN16 and Bacillus subtilis strain SW1 were tested for their systemic resistance and protection abilities against tobacco mosaic virus disease under greenhouse conditions. The results showed that strain EN16 and SW1 treatment significantly reduced mosaic symptoms and disease severity, resulting in 52 and 71% protection at 14 days of inoculation, respectively. A decreased amount of virus was detected in EN16- or SW1-treated tobacco plants by ELISA. Moreover, 5- and 7-day intervals between inducer treatment and pathogen inoculations were respectively required for strain EN16 and SW1 to induce optimal resistance. Further analysis on phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase and pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins in tobacco showed that the amounts of defense enzymes and PR proteins significantly increased in Bacillus-treated plants challenged with pathogen when compared to control. 相似文献

We have compared localized (LAR) and systemic (SAR) acquired resistance induced in tobacco by a hypersensitive response (HR) inducing Phytophthora megasperma glycoprotein elicitin. Three different zones were taken into account: LAR, SART and SARS. The LAR zone was 5–10 mm wide and surrounded the HR lesion. SART was the tissue of the elicitor-treated leaf immediately beyond the LAR zone. The systemic leaf was called SARS. Glycoprotein-treated plants showed enhanced resistance to challenge infection by tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). Disease resistance was similar in SART and SARS, and higher in LAR. The expression pattern, in glycoprotein-treated plants, of acidic and basic PR1, PR2, PR3 and PR5 proteins and of O-methyltransferases (OMT), enzymes of the phenylpropanoid pathway, was similar to that in TMV-infected plants. OMT was stimulated in LAR but not in SART and SARS. The four classes of acidic and basic PR proteins accumulated strongly in LAR. Reduced amounts of acidic PR1, PR2, PR3 and only minute amounts of basic PR2 and PR3 accumulated in SART and SARS. In glycoprotein-treated plants, expression of the acidic and basic PR proteins in LAR and SAR of transgenic NahG and ETR tobacco plants and in LAR of plants treated with inhibitors of salicylic acid accumulation and of ethylene biosynthesis indicated a salicylic acid-dependent signalling pathway for acidic isoform activation and an ethylene-dependent signalling pathway for basic isoform activation. 相似文献

Tobacco ringspot virus (TRSV) induces circular, darkbrown local lesions on primary leaves of lima bean (Phaseolus lunatus cv Nemagreen) with a concomitant production of three basic and three acidic pathogenesisrelated (PR) proteins. The three basic proteins are: a 21 kDa protein related serologically to Pinto bean PR-4d and tobacco PR-5 proteins; a 36 kDa glucanase that is related to tobacco PR-2; and, a 31 kDa chitinase related serologically to ethylene-induced bean chitinase. The three acidic 18 kDa lima bean PR proteins are serologically similar and probably are charged isomers of the same protein. The 21 kDa basic protein and the 18 kDa acidic protein accumulated preferentially at the lesion center while the 31 kDa chitinase and TRSV were distributed evenly throughout the necrotic area. In green tissue immediately surrounding a lesion, the amounts of PR proteins were comparable to or lower than those in the necrotic area, and virions were not detected. This mode of spatial distribution indicates that lima bean PR proteins are not involved in TRSV localization, and is consistent with other observations that PR proteins play no direct role in restricting viral spread. 相似文献

Overexpression of antifungal pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins in crop plants has the potential for enhancing resistance
against fungal pathogens. Thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs) are one group (PR-5, permatins) of antifungal PR-proteins isolated
from various plants. In the present study, a plasmid containing a cDNA of rice tlp (D34) under the control of the CaMV-35S promoter was introduced into tobacco plants through Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system. A considerable overproduction of TLP was observed in transformed tobacco plants by Western
blot analysis. There was a large accumulation of tlp mRNA in transgenic plants as revealed by Northern blot analysis. Southern blot analysis of the DNA from transgenic tobacco
plants confirmed the presence of the rice tlp gene in the genomic DNA of transgenic tobacco plants. Immunoblot analysis of intracellular and extracellular proteins of
transgenic tobacco leaves using a Pinto bean TLP antibody demonstrated that the 23-kDa TLP was secreted into the extracellular
matrix. T2 progeny of regenerated plants transformed with TLP gene were tested for their disease reaction to Alternaria alternata, the brown spot pathogen. Transgenic tobacco plants expressing TLP at high levels showed enhanced tolerance to necrotization
caused by the pathogen.

Summary Leaves of tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Samsun NN) which are reacting hypersensitively to infection with tobacco mosaic virus contain 10 major pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins which are absent, or present in small amounts in uninfected leaves. We describe here a preparative procedure of purification of the tobacco PR-proteins which involves a combination of conventional and high-performance liquid chromatography. The separation and isolation of the proteins were based on differences in net charge at different pH values, in isoelectric point and in apparent molecular weight. This procedure led to the purification to homogeneity of 8 PR-proteins, as shown by polyacrylamide slab gel electrophoresis (PAGE) of the purified proteins under denaturing and non-denaturing conditions. These were the 3 well-known proteins PR-1a,-1b and-1c, and 5 other major PR-proteins, called PR-2,-N,-O,-P and-Q, according to the nomenclature of Van Loon (39). None of the purified PR-proteins gave a positive Schiff reaction for carbohydrate content. Molecular weight determinations from gel permeation chromatography and from sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS)-PAGE indicated that all 8 PR-proteins were monomers and that three groups could be distinguished among them. The first group is the PR-1 group containing PR-1a,-1b and-1c (12000 MW), the second consists of PR-P and PR-Q (14000 MW) and the third of PR-2, PR-N and PR-O (25000 MW). In the PR-1 group, PR-1a can be distinguished clearly from the two other members on denaturing slab gels containing both SDS and urea. 相似文献

Intercellular spaces are often the first sites invaded by pathogens. In the spaces of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)-infected and necrotic lesion-forming tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) leaves, we found that an inducer for acidic pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins was accumulated. The induction activity was recovered in gel-filtrated fractions of low molecular mass with a basic nature, into which authentic spermine (Spm) was eluted. We quantified polyamines in the intercellular spaces of the necrotic lesion-forming leaves and found 20-fold higher levels of free Spm than in healthy leaves. Among several polyamines tested, exogenously supplied Spm induced acidic PR-1 gene expression. Immunoblot analysis showed that Spm treatment increased not only acidic PR-1 but also acidic PR-2, PR-3, and PR-5 protein accumulation. Treatment of healthy tobacco leaves with salicylic acid (SA) caused no significant increase in the level of endogenous Spm, and Spm did not increase the level of endogenous SA, suggesting that induction of acidic PR proteins by Spm is independent of SA. The size of TMV-induced local lesions was reduced by Spm treatment. These results indicate that Spm accumulates outside of cells after lesion formation and induces both acidic PR proteins and resistance against TMV via a SA-independent signaling pathway. 相似文献

The acidic, extracellular, glucan endo-1,3-β-glucosidases (EC 3.2.1.39; β-1,3-glucanases), pathogenesis-related proteins-2, -N, and -O (i.e. PR-2, PR-N, and PR-O) were purified from Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) and their partial amino acid sequences determined. Based on these data, complementary DNA (cDNA) clones encoding the proteins were isolated. Additional cDNAs were isolated that encoded proteins approximately 90% identical with PR-2, PR-N, and PR-O. Although the proteins encoded by these cDNAs have not been identified, their deduced amino acid sequences have slightly basic or neutral calculated isoelectric points, as well as carboxy-terminal extensions. These physical characteristics are shared by the vacuolar form of β-1,3-glucanase and other vacuolar localized analogs of PR proteins, suggesting that the unidentified proteins may be similarly localized. A preliminary evolutionary model that separates the β-1,3-glucanase gene family from tobacco into at least five distinct subfamilies is proposed. The expression of β-1,3-glucanase messenger RNAs (mRNAs) in response to infection by tobacco mosaic virus was examined. Messages for the acidic glucanases were induced similarly to the mRNAs for other PR proteins. However, the basic glucanase showed a different response, suggesting that different isoforms are differentially regulated by tobacco mosaic virus infection at the mRNA level. 相似文献

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe), is an important spice crop that is badly affected by Ralstonia solanacearum wilt. Ginger does not set seed and sexual recombination has never been reported. In spite of extensive search in its habitats,
no resistance source to Ralstonia induced bacterial wilt, could be located in ginger. Curcuma amada Roxb. is a potential donor for bacterial wilt resistance to Z. officinale, if the exact mechanism of resistance is understood. Pathogenesis-related (PR)-5 proteins are a family of proteins that are
induced by different phytopathogens in many plants and share significant sequence similarity with thaumatin. Two putative
PR5 genes, CaPR5 and ZoPR5, were amplified from C. amada and ginger, which encode precursor proteins of 227 and 224 amino acid residues, respectively, and share high homology with
a number of other PR5 genes. The secondary and three-dimensional structure comparison did not reveal any striking differences
between these two proteins. The expression of Ca and ZoPR5s under R. solanacearum inoculation was analyzed at different time points using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR). Our results reveal that CaPR5 is readily induced by the bacterium in C. amada, while ZoPR5 induction was very weak and slow in ginger. These results suggest that the CaPR5 could play a role in the molecular defense response of C. amada to pathogen attack. This is the first report of the isolation of PR5 gene from the C. amada and Z. officinale. Promoter analysis indicates the presence of a silencing element binding factor in ZoPR5-promoter, but not in CaPR5. Prospective promoter elements, such as GT-1 box and TGTCA, implicated as being positive regulatory elements for expression
of PR proteins, occur in the 5′-flanking sequences of the CaPR5. Transient GUS expression study confirms its action with a weaker GUS expression in ginger, indicating that the PR5 expression
may be controlled in the promoter. 相似文献

Pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins play an important role in the disease resistance response. To better understand the function
of rice PR proteins, we examined the expressions of ten PR proteins in rice leaves at different developmental stages with
or without the interaction between rice and Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). The results showed that most of the PR proteins were expressed in rice leaves in normal growth conditions, suggesting that
they play a role in rice growth. Six out of ten PR proteins (PR1, PR2, PR3, PR4b, PR8, and PR-pha) showed enhanced expression
in Xa21-mediated resistance responses at late stages after inoculation with Xoo. The remaining four PR proteins (PR5, PR6, PR15, and PR16) did not show changes in expression in the resistance response.
The expressions of PR proteins in the resistance reaction were further compared with those in the susceptible reaction and
a mock treatment. Interestingly, several of the PR proteins were expressed at the highest levels in the susceptible reaction
and at the lowest levels in the mock treatment. Among the other four PR proteins, PR5 and PR16 showed changes in the abundance
only in the susceptible response, while PR6 and PR15 showed no detectable difference in expression. These data provide fundamental
knowledge about the expression of PR proteins in the interaction between rice and Xoo. 相似文献

The pathogenesis-related 1 (PR1) proteins are members of the cross-kingdom conserved CAP superfamily (from Cysteine-rich secretory protein, Antigen 5, and PR1 proteins). PR1 mRNA expression is frequently used for biotic stress monitoring in plants; however, the molecular mechanisms of its cellular processing, localization, and function are still unknown. To analyse the localization and immunity features of Arabidopsis thaliana PR1, we employed transient expression in Nicotiana benthamiana of the tagged full-length PR1 construct, and also disrupted variants with C-terminal truncations or mutations. We found that en route from the endoplasmic reticulum, the PR1 protein transits via the multivesicular body and undergoes partial proteolytic processing, dependent on an intact C-terminal motif. Importantly, only nonmutated or processing-mimicking variants of PR1 are secreted to the apoplast. The C-terminal proteolytic cleavage releases a protein fragment that acts as a modulator of plant defence responses, including localized cell death control. However, other parts of PR1 also have immunity potential unrelated to cell death. The described modes of the PR1 contribution to immunity were found to be tissue-localized and host plant ontogenesis dependent. 相似文献

A non-toxic pokeweed antiviral protein mutant inhibits pathogen infection via a novel salicylic acid-independent pathway 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Pokeweed antiviral protein (PAP), a ribosome-inactivating protein isolated from Phytolacca americana, is characterized by its ability to depurinate the sarcin/ricin (S/R) loop of the large rRNA of prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes. In this study, we present evidence that PAP is associated with ribosomes and depurinates tobacco ribosomes in vivo by removing more than one adenine and a guanine. A mutant of pokeweed antiviral protein, PAPn, which has a single amino acid substitution (G75D), did not bind ribosomes efficiently, indicating that Gly-75 in the N-terminal domain is critical for the binding of PAP to ribosomes. PAPn did not depurinate ribosomes and was non-toxic when expressed in transgenic tobacco plants. Unlike wild-type PAP and a C-terminal deletion mutant, transgenic plants expressing PAPn did not have elevated levels of acidic pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins. PAPn, like other forms of PAP, did not trigger production of salicylic acid (SA) in transgenic plants. Expression of the basic PR proteins, the wound-inducible protein kinase and protease inhibitor II, was induced in PAPn-expressing transgenic plants and these plants were resistant to viral and fungal infection. These results demonstrate that PAPn activates a particular SA-independent, stress-associated signal transduction pathway and confers pathogen resistance in the absence of ribosome binding, rRNA depurination and acidic PR protein production. 相似文献

Patterns of molecular evolution and predicted function in thaumatin-like proteins of Populus trichocarpa 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Some pathogenesis-related proteins (PR proteins) are subject to positive selection, while others are under negative selection.
Here, we report the patterns of molecular evolution in thaumatin-like protein (TLP, PR5 protein) genes of Populus trichocarpa. Signs of positive selection were found in 20 out of 55 Populus TLPs using the likelihood ratio test and ML-based Bayesian methods. Due to the connection between the acidic cleft and the
antifungal activity, the secondary structure and three-dimensional structure analyses predicted antifungal activity β-1,3-glucanase
activities in these TLPs. Moreover, the coincidence with variable basic sites in the acidic cleft and positively selected
sites suggested that fungal diseases may have been the main environmental stress that drove rapid adaptive evolution in Populus. 相似文献
