The Arabidopsis trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase (TPP) gene family arose mainly from whole genome duplication events and consists of 10 genes (TPPA-J). All the members encode active TPP enzymes, possibly regulating the levels of trehalose-6-phosphate, an established signaling metabolite in plants. GUS activity studies revealed tissue-, cell- and stage-specific expression patterns for the different members of the TPP gene family. Here we list additional examples of the remarkable features of the TPP gene family. TPPA-J expression levels seem, in most of the cases, differently regulated in response to light, darkness and externally supplied sucrose. Disruption of the TPPB gene leads to Arabidopsis plants with larger leaves, which is the result of an increased cell number in the leaves. Arabidopsis
TPPA and TPPG are preferentially expressed in atrichoblast cells. TPPA and TPPG might fulfill redundant roles during the differentiation process of root epidermal cells, since the tppa tppg double mutant displays a hairy root phenotype, while the respective single knockouts have a distribution of trichoblast and atrichoblast cells similar to the wild type. These new data portray redundant and non-redundant functions of the TPP proteins in regulatory pathways of Arabidopsis. 相似文献

Caleosins: Ca2+-binding proteins associated with lipid bodies 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

We have previously identified a rice gene encoding a 27 kDa protein with a single Ca2+-binding EF-hand and a putative membrane anchor. We report here similar genes termed caleosins, CLO, in other plants and fungi; they comprise a multigene family of at least five members in Arabidopsis (AtClo1–5). Northern hybridization demonstrated that AtClo2–4 mRNAs levels were low in various tissues, while AtClo1 mRNA levels were high in developing embryos and mature seeds. Analysis of transgenic Arabidopsis plants expressing the GUS reporter under control of the AtClo1 promoter showed strong levels of expression in developing embryos and also in root tip cells. Antibodies raised against AtCLO1 were used to detect caleosin in cellular fractions of Arabidopsis and rapeseed. This indicated that caleosins are a novel class of lipid body proteins, which may also be associated with an ER subdomain. 相似文献

Proteins found in the root exudates are thought to play a role in the interactions between plants and soil organisms. To gain a better understanding of protein secretion by roots, we conducted a systematic proteomic analysis of the root exudates of Arabidopsis thaliana at different plant developmental stages. In total, we identified 111 proteins secreted by roots, the majority of which were exuded constitutively during all stages of development. However, defense-related proteins such as chitinases, glucanases, myrosinases, and others showed enhanced secretion during flowering. Defense-impaired mutants npr1-1 and NahG showed lower levels of secretion of defense proteins at flowering compared with the wild type. The flowering-defective mutants fca-1, stm-4, and co-1 showed almost undetectable levels of defense proteins in their root exudates at similar time points. In contrast, root secretions of defense-enhanced cpr5-2 mutants showed higher levels of defense proteins. The proteomics data were positively correlated with enzymatic activity assays for defense proteins and with in silico gene expression analysis of genes specifically expressed in roots of Arabidopsis. In conclusion, our results show a clear correlation between defense-related proteins secreted by roots and flowering time. 相似文献

We have isolated five cDNA clones (osk1–5) for protein kinases from rice which are related to SNF1 protein kinase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Based on the sequence homology, these cDNAs can be classified into two groups, group 1 (osk1) and group 2 (osk2–5). The products of these genes were demonstrated to be functional SNF1-related protein kinases by in vitro and in vivo experiments. Recombinant proteins expressed from both groups of genes were fully active as protein kinases and could phosphorylate SAMS peptide, a substrate specific for the SNF1/AMPK family, as well as themselves (autophosphorylation). Moreover, expression of osk3 cDNA in yeast snf1 mutants restored SNF1 function. Northern blot analyses showed differential expression of these two gene groups; group 1 is expressed uniformly in growing tissues (young roots, young shoots, flowers, and immature seeds), whereas group 2 is strongly expressed in immature seeds. SNF1-related protein kinases have been reported from different plant species, such as rye, barley, Arabidopsis, tobacco, and potato, while the type of gene strongly expressed in immature seeds is known only in cereals such as rye, barley, and, from our findings, in rice. Expression levels of the group 2 genes were further analyzed in seeds during seed maturation. Expression is transiently increased in the early stages of seed maturation and then decreases. The expression peak precedes those of the sbe1 and waxy genes, which are involved in starch synthesis in rice. Taken together, these findings suggest that group 2 OSK genes play important roles in the early stages of endosperm development in rice seeds. 相似文献

Analysis of the polypeptide composition of extracts from heat-shocked leaves of Arabidopsis indicated the presence of at least 12 HSP70-related polypeptides, most of which were constitutively expressed. In vitro translation of mRNA from heat-shocked and control leaves indicated that the amount of mRNA encoding four HSP70 polypeptides was increased strongly by heat-shock. Three Arabidopsis genes which exhibit homology to a Drosophila HSP70 gene were cloned. Two of the three genes are arranged in direct orientation approximately 1.5 kilobases apart. The third gene is not closely linked to the other two. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the 5′ regions of the two linked genes revealed that both contain a TATA box, the CAAT motif, and several short sequences which are homologous to the Drosophila heat-shock consensus sequence. The deduced partial amino acid sequence of the open reading frames were 79 and 72% homologous to the corresponding regions of the Drosophila HSP70-cognate and HSP70 sequences, respectively. As with the two maize HSP70 genes which have been characterized, and the Drosophila HSP70-cognate genes, the Arabidopsis genes contained a putative intron in the codon specifying amino acid 72. Analysis of mRNA levels with gene-specific oligonucleotide probes indicated that two of the genes were not expressed or were expressed at very low levels in leaves during normal growth or after heat-shock, whereas the other gene was constitutively expressed. By analogy with the results of similar studies of other organisms, it appears that the three cloned genes are members of a small family which are most closely related to the HSP70-cognate genes found in other species. 相似文献

Prohibitins (PHBs) are highly conserved proteins in species ranging from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. Plant PHBs have been implicated in various cellular processes including development, senescence and stress responses. Although PHBs have been investigated in several plant species including Arabidopsis and tobacco, no systematic gene family analysis has been carried in maize. In the present study, 16 putative PHB genes have been identified. Analysis of the conserved protein motifs and gene structures has revealed high levels of conservation within the phylogenetic subgroups. Published microarray database showed that most maize PHB genes exhibited different expression levels in different tissues and developmental stages. Cis-elements analysis showed that ZmPHB2 and ZmPHB12 may play important roles in plant development. Taken together, we provide a comprehensive bioinformatics analysis of the PHB gene family in maize genome and our data provide an important foundation for further functional study of this gene family in maize. 相似文献
