The major auxin of Scots pine (Pinus silvestris L.) which is transported basipetally into agar strips from the cambial region of the stem was quantified by the Went Avena coleoptile curvature assay before and after reversed phase C18 high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and then identified by full spectrum gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) as indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). The IAA was subsequently quantified by GC-MS-selected ion monitoring (SIM) using an internal standard of [13C]-(C6)-IAA. The amount of IAA collected into 22-millimeter long agar strips during 10 minutes of contact with the stem cambial region was estimated by GC-MS-SIM and the Went bioassay to be 2.3 and 2.1 nanograms per strip, respectively. The GC-MS technique thus confirmed the results obtained by the Went curvature assay. The Avena curvature assay revealed the presence of at least one other, more polar (based on HPLC retention time) auxin that diffused into the agar strips with the IAA. Its bioactivity was only 5% of the IAA fraction. Its HPLC retention time was earlier than IAA-glucoside, IAA-aspartate, or IAA-glycine, but the same as IAA-inositol. No significant amounts of inhibitors or synergists of IAA activity on the Avena assay were found in extracts corresponding to one or five strips of agar. Thus, the direct bioassay of the agar strips immediately after their removal from the cambial region of P. silvestris stem sections reflects the concentration of the native IAA. For both P. silvestris and lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta) a wavelike pattern of auxin stimulation of Avena curvature was found in agar strips exposed for only 10 minutes to the basal ends of an axial series of 6-millimeter long sections from the cambial region of the stem. This wavelike pattern was subsequently confirmed for P. contorta both by Avena curvature assay and by GC-MS-SIM of HPLC fractions at the retention time of [3H]IAA. The wavelike pattern of auxin diffusing from the cambial region of Pinus has thus been determined to consist primarily of IAA and this pattern has now been quantitated using both the Went Avena curvature assay and GC-MS-SIM with [13C]-C6-IAA as an internal standard. 相似文献

Endogenous indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) was found in axenically cultured gametophytes of the leafy liverwort, Plagiochila arctica Bryhn and Kaal., by high-performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection. Identification of the methylated auxin was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Addition of 57 micromolar IAA to cultures increased relative production of ethylene. This is the first definitive (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) demonstration of the natural occurrence of IAA in a bryophyte. 相似文献

Several studies have reported that the citrus red mites Panonychus citri were an important allergen of citrus-cultivating farmers in Jeju Island. The aim of the present study was to purify and assess properties of a cysteine protease from the mites acting as a potentially pathogenic factor to citrus-cultivating farmers. A cysteine protease was purified using column chromatography of Mono Q anion exchanger and Superdex 200 HR gel filtration. It was estimated to be 46 kDa by gel filtration column chromatography and consisted of 2 polypeptides, at least. Cysteine protease inhibitors, such as trans poxy-succinyl-L-leucyl-amido (4-guanidino) butane (E-64) and iodoacetic acid (IAA) totally inhibited the enzyme activities, whereas serine or metalloprotease inhibitors did not affect the activities. In addition, the purified enzyme degraded human IgG, collagen, and fibronectin, but not egg albumin. From these results, the cysteine protease of the mites might be involved in the pathogenesis such as tissue destruction and penetration instead of nutrient digestion. 相似文献

The regulative systems of auxins, gibberellin-like substances and their inhibitors in citrus fruit were studied. Masking caused by a high content of inhibitors was eliminated by using a refined method of solvent partition. Considerable amounts of auxins and gibberellin-like substances were detected in all stages of fruit development. The auxin system of the citrus fruit is highly complex and consists of various elements which undergo dynamic changes throughout the growth period. The identity of the auxins was studied using IAA-2-14C, and 88% of the radioactivity specifically migrated into the etheric pH 6.0 fraction. Although the prominent zones of promotion do not coincide with IAA, it can be concluded that the auxin promoters are probably not the “citrus auxin”. Abscisic acid-like inhibitors were found to accumulate in the external layers of the fruit, increasing in content as time advances. 相似文献

MicroRNAs function in a range of developmental processes. Here, we demonstrate that miR847 targets the mRNA of the auxin/indole acetic acid (Aux/IAA) repressor-encoding gene IAA28 for cleavage. The rapidly increased accumulation of miR847 in Arabidopsis thaliana coincided with reduced IAA28 mRNA levels upon auxin treatment. This induction of miR847 by auxin was abolished in auxin receptor tir1-1 and auxin-resistant axr1-3 mutants. Further analysis demonstrates that miR847 functions as a positive regulator of auxin-mediated lateral organ development by cleaving IAA28 mRNA. Importantly, the ectopic expression of miR847 increases the expression of cell cycle genes as well as the neoplastic activity of leaf cells, prolonging later-stage rosette leaf growth and producing leaves with serrated margins. Moreover, both miR847 and IAA28 mRNAs are specifically expressed in marginal meristems of rosette leaves and lateral root initiation sites. Our data indicate that auxin-dependent induction of miR847 positively regulates meristematic competence by clearing IAA28 mRNA to upregulate auxin signaling, thereby determining the duration of cell proliferation and lateral organ growth in Arabidopsis. IAA28 mRNA encodes an Aux/IAA repressor protein, which is degraded through the proteasome in response to auxin. Altered signal sensitization to IAA28 mRNA levels, together with targeted IAA28 degradation, ensures a robust signal derepression. 相似文献

Summary Diffusates from flower buds, flower fruits, and scape segments, and extracts of flower stalks of Narcissus pseudonarcissus contain an auxin active in the Avena geo-curvature test. The auxin behaved like indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in thin-layer chromatography (TLC) with neutral and basic solvents on different adsorbents. After TLC, the auxin of the extracts showed chromogenic reactions identical with those of IAA; in gas-liquid chromatography on two different columns, the purified substance, after methylation, appeared at the retention time of IAA methyl ester. The auxin content of the extracts has been estimated to be equivalent to ca. 10 g IAA kg–1 fresh weight. Diffusates, collected at the basal end of excised flowering apices and of scape segments at different developmental stages, showed highest auxin activity when collected from old buds and young flowers, and from the basal, rapidly elongating scape regions. The diffusible auxin obtained from scape segments was very likely produced by the segments themselves. Thus, the shoot of Narcissus appears to possess two different sites of auxin production, namely, the apical region represented by the flower bud, the flower or the fruit, and the scape.Abbreviations IAA

We have previously observed that auxin can act as a repressor of the wound-inducible activation of a chimeric potato proteinase inhibitor II-CAT chimeric gene (pin2-CAT) in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tobacum) callus and in whole plants. Therefore, this study was designed to examine endogenous levels of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in plant tissues both before and after wounding. Endogenous IAA was measured in whole plant tissues by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using an isotope dilution technique. 13C-Labeled IAA was used as an internal standard. The endogenous levels of IAA declined two- to threefold within 6 hours after a wound. The kinetics of auxin decline are consistent with the kinetics of activation of the pin2-CAT construction in the foliage of transgenic tobacco. 相似文献

The tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum, Mill.) mutant diageotropica (dgt) exhibits biochemical, physiological, and morphological abnormalities that suggest the mutation may have affected a primary site of auxin perception or action. We have compared two aspects of the auxin physiology of dgt and wild-type (VFN8) seedlings: auxin transport and cellular growth parameters. The rates of basipetal indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) polar transport are identical in hypocotyl sections of the two genotypes, but dgt sections have a slightly greater capacity for IAA transport. 2,3,5-Triiodobenzoic acid and ethylene reduce transport in both mutant and wild-type sections. The kinetics of auxin uptake into VFN8 and dgt sections are nearly identical. These results make it unlikely that an altered IAA efflux carrier or IAA uptake symport are responsible for the pleiotropic effects resulting from the dgt mutation. The lack of auxin-induced cell elongation in dgt plants is not due to insufficient turgor, as the osmotic potential of dgt cell sap is less (more negative) than that of VFN8. An auxin-induced increase in wall extensibility, as measured by the Instron technique, only occurs in the VFN8 plants. These data suggest dgt hypocotyls suffer a defect in the sequence of events culminating in auxin-induced cell wall loosening. 相似文献

Capacity of Klebsiella planticola strain TSKhA-91 for synthesis of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and other auxins was studied. The qualitative and quantitative composition of these compounds depends on the presence of exogenous tryptophan and on the nitrogen source. The highest IAA yield was obtained at the stationary phase of growth. Addition of L-tryptophan to the medium resulted in a significant increase (up to 85.5 μg/mL) of auxin biosynthesis, especially in the presence of nitrates. Thin-layer chromatography revealed that the indole-3-acetamide pathway was not active in this strain. The biological activity of auxins was confirmed by assay with kidney bean cuttings; the height of root formation and root number increased 16- and 6-fold, respectively. Under conditions of low-temperature stress, protective effect of K. planticola TSKhA-91 on development of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) seeds and stimulation of germination and root formation by its seeds were shown. 相似文献

Background
Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) extraction and purification are of great importance in auxin research, which is a hot topic in the plant growth and development field. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) is frequently used for IAA extraction and purification. However, no IAA-specific SPE columns are commercially available at the moment. Therefore, the development of IAA-specific recognition materials and IAA extraction and purification methods will help researchers meet the need for more precise analytical methods for research on phytohormones.Results
Since the AUXIN RESISTANT/INDOLE-3-ACETIC ACID INDUCIBLE (Aux/IAA) proteins show higher specific binding capability with auxin, recombinant IAA1, IAA7 and IAA28 proteins were used as sorbents to develop an IAA extraction and purification method. A GST tag was used to solidify the recombinant protein in a column. Aux/IAA proteins solidified in a column have successfully trapped trace IAA in aqueous solutions. The IAA7 protein showed higher IAA binding capability than the other proteins tested. In addition, expression of the IAA7 protein in Drosophila Schneider 2 (S2) cells produced better levels of binding than IAA7 expressed in E. coli.Conclusion
This work validated the potential of Aux/IAA proteins to extract and purify IAA from crude plant extracts once we refined the techniques for these processes.12.
The potential of three auxin analogs, 4-, 5-, and 6-azidoindole-3-acetic (4-N3IAA, 5-N3IAA, and 6-N3IAA), as photoaffinity labeling agents for the detection and isolation of auxin receptors was assessed by irradiating these compounds at 365 nm on TLC plates, in solution, and in contact with soybean (Glycine max L. Merr. var. Wayne) hypocotyl. Photolysis on TLC plates produces immobile spots, indicating extremely polar or covalent binding of the photoproducts to the plates. On irradiation in buffer or in buffer containing sucrose, all three compounds decompose at rates that are first order in N3IAA to give fluorescent solutions. Photolysis through a Pyrex filter is slower than that through quartz, but the filter prevents tissue damage and allows a given dose of irradiation to photolyze all three N3IAAs to the same extent. The effects of photolysis of these compounds in vivo were evaluated with a straight growth assay using etiolated soybean hypocotyl segments. According to this assay, the photoproducts of the N3IAAs possess little auxin activity. Irradiation of soybean hypocotyl tissue after 1-hour exposure to 4-N3IAA in the dark causes the tissue to grow during 12 hours as much as tissue that is continuously exposed to 4-N3IAA in the dark for this period, suggesting that, on photolysis, this auxin analog binds irreversibly to an auxinsensitive site. Although the fluorescence intensity of the photolyzed N3IAAs is weak enough to require another method of detecting the bound analog under physiological conditions, the evidence for covalent binding of the N3IAAs on photolysis implies that these compounds will be satisfactory photoaffinity labeling agents. 相似文献

Biosynthesis of Indole-3-Acetic Acid by the Pine Ectomycorrhizal Fungus Pisolithus tinctorius 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Previous work has indicated that anatomical and morphological changes (stunting and dichotomy) in roots of various conifers may be influenced by plant-growth-regulating substances secreted by mycorrhizae. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) has been tentatively identified as a major auxin produced by some selected ectomycorrhizae. We report the isolation and detection of IAA as a secondary metabolite from Pisolithus tinctorius by thin-layer chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), enzyme-linked immunosorbent (monoclonal antibody) assay (ELISA), and unequivocal identification by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The thin-layer chromatography methods for auxin isolation described here are novel, with the use of heptane-acetone-glacial acetic acid as the migrating solvent and formaldehyde, H(2)SO(4), and vanadate in detection. The acidic extract of the culture supernatant was methylated with ethereal diazomethane to detect IAA as methyl-3-IAA by HPLC, ELISA, and GC-MS. The quantitative amount of IAA detected ranged from 4 to 5 mumol liter by HPLC and ELISA. Another unidentified metabolite was detected by GC-MS with a typical indole nucleus (m/z = 130), indicating that it could be an intermediate in auxin metabolism. Plant response (Pseudotsuga menziesii, Douglas fir) was monitored upon inoculation of P. tinctorius and l-tryptophan. There was a consistent increase in plant height and stem diameter as a result of the two treatments, with statistical differences in dry weights of the shoots and roots. 相似文献

Endogenous auxins in plant growth-promoting Cyanobacteria—Anabaena vaginicola and Nostoc calcicola 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Three isolates of heterocystous cyanobacteria, belonging to the genera Anabaena and Nostoc, gathered from Iranian terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems exhibited considerable growth promotion effect on several vegetables and herbaceous plants. To study the ability of these three isolates to produce auxins, three endogenous auxins, including indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and two of its main homologues, indole-3-propionic acid and indole-3-butyric acid, were extracted and analyzed with high-performance liquid chromatography equipped with diode array detector and fluorescence detector, and the results were further confirmed with liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry (LC–MS/MS) in the negative-ion mode. The dominant auxin observed in all isolates was indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) in the range of 140.10–2146.96 ng g?1 fresh weight (FW), and only small amounts of IAA (2.19–9.93 ng g?1 FW) were detected. The predominance of IBA in these strains is reported for the first time which is different from the previously reported auxin profiles in microalgae and algae with the predominance of IAA. 相似文献

Cycloheximide inhibits polar indoleacetic acid transport in midrib tissues of leaves of citrus (Citrus sinensis [L.] Osbeck) and poplar (Populus deltoides Bartr.) as measured by the donor-receiver agar cylinder technique. It appears that the mechanism of auxin transport inhibition by cycloheximide consists in arresting protein synthesis and not in the disruption of energy flow. The interpretation of the data takes into account the involvement of either a carrier protein or auxin-induced proton excretion in auxin transport. 相似文献

Tryptophan-dependent biosynthesis of auxins in soil 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The presence of auxins in soil may have an ecological impact affecting plant growth and development. A rapid and simple colorimetric method was used to assess California soils for their potential to produce auxins upon the addition of L-tryptophan (L-TRP). The auxin content measured by colorimetry was expressed as indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-equivalents. A substrate (L-TRP) concentration of 5.3 g kg-1, glucose concentration of 6.7 g kg-1, no nitrogen, pH 7.0, 40°C, shaking (aeration) and 48 h incubation time were selected as standardized conditions to assay for auxin biosynthesis in soil. IAA was confirmed as a major microbial metabolite derived from L-TRP in soil by use of high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Under standardized conditions, L-TRP-derived auxins in 19 soils varied greatly ranging from 18.2 to 303.2 mg IAA equivalents (auxins) kg-1 soil. This study suggests that the phenotypic character of the soil microbiota has more of an influence on auxin production than the soil physicochemical properties (e.g., pH, organic C content, CEC, etc.). 相似文献

The opening of citrus petals is an auxin mediated process. Inhibition of curvature by antimetabolites of nucleic acidsand protein synthesis can be partially relieved by the correspondingmetabolites. Cycloheximide inhibited curvature and incorporationof 14C-leucine into protein by more than 80%. IAA did not enhanceincorporation significantly, but the auxin antagonist p-chlorophenoxyisobutyricacid did inhibit it to a certain extent. On opening petals graduallylose the ability to synthesize protein. (Received November 4, 1970; ) 相似文献

We have investigated the presence of auxin and the ability of chloronema cells to synthesize indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in axenic protonema cell cultures of the moss Funaria hygrometrica. The endogenous level of auxin activity was 4 and 7μg-IAA equivalents/kg in caulonema and chloronema cell types, respectively. Based on an indole-α-pyrone fluorometric assay, the level of putative IAA was observed to be 5.0 and 1.9.μg/kg in caulonema and chloronema cells, respectively. [3H]Tryptophan was metabolized into IAA via the indole-pyruvate pathway by intact chloronema cells and also by the cell free homogenates. More [3H]IAA accumulated when homogenates from cells pre-grown at low cell densities (< 0.5 mg/ml) as compared to those at high cell densities ( > 0.5 mg/ml) were used. Since the activities of peroxidase and IAA-oxidase are known to be high at high cell densities, the lack of accumulation of radioactivity in IAA at high densities can be attributed to a high level of IAA-oxidizing enzymes. Our results suggest a possible relationship between IAA accumulation and caulonema differentiation. 相似文献

Quantitative levels of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) were determined in leaf blades of two sugarbeet cultivars by a double standard isotope dilution assay using column chromatography followed by reverse phase C18 high performance liquid chromatography and gas-liquid chromatography with nitrogen thermionic detection. The double standard method was validated as a quantitative tool by gas chromatography/selected ion monitoring mass spectrometry using 2,′,4′,5′,6′,7′-d5-IAA as the internal standard. Progenies of one breeding line that had been selected for a high taproot to leaf weight ratio were used to correlate IAA levels with varying leaf and plant size at day 31 from germination. In spite of size differences, no significant difference in IAA levels per unit leaf weight could be found. The possible relationship between day 31 leaves and IAA content at an earlier stage of development is discussed in the text. A second analysis used four developmental leaf stages, classified as expanding, recently mature, aging, and senescing leaves. Expanding leaves contained the most IAA, senescing leaves contained the least IAA, with recently mature leaves and aging leaves containing intermediate amounts. The DNA content of each of the four developmental leaf stages was determined and DNA levels per gram fresh weight were found to be constant at all developmental stages. 相似文献
