The cytoskeleton is an important component of the plant’s defense mechanism against the attack of pathogenic organisms. Plants however, are defenseless against parasitic rootknot and cyst nematodes and respond to the invasion by the development of a special feeding site that supplies the parasite with nutrients required for the completion of its life cycle. Recent studies of nematode invasion under treatment with cytoskeletal drugs and in mutant plants where normal functions of the cytoskeleton have been affected, demonstrate the importance of the cytoskeleton in the establishment of a feeding site and successful nematode reproduction. It appears that in the case of microfilaments, nematodes hijack the intracellular machinery that regulates actin dynamics and modulate the organization and properties of the actin filament network. Intervening with this process reduces the nematode infection efficiency and inhibits its life cycle. This discovery uncovers a new pathway that can be exploited for the protection of plants against nematodes.Key words: cytoskeleton, actin, actin depolymerizing factor, nematode, giant cells, syncytium, cytochalasin, taxol 相似文献

Cortical division zone establishment in plant cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Plant cell division is spatially organized to maintain a critical cell volume and to control growth directionality. The correct orientation of the separating cell wall is secured by means of specialized cytoskeletal structures that guide the newly formed cell plate toward a predefined cortical position. A ring of microtubules called preprophase band defines a cortical zone that corresponds to the future division plane. Coincident with the disappearance of the preprophase band microtubules, cortical actin is removed at the corresponding position, leaving an actin-depleted zone that persists throughout mitosis. Here, we review the spatial and structural organization of the cortical division zone and discuss evidence that implicate the plasma membrane in division plane establishment. 相似文献

Summary Electric field pulses, ranging from 250 to 2000 V and of 10 to 50 sec duration, were assessed for their effect on the growth in culture of isolated protoplasts ofGlycine canescens, Prunus avium × pseudocerasus, Pyrus communis, Solanum dulcamara andSolanum viarum. Three successive voltage pulses between 250 and 1000 V caused a small decrease in protoplast viability, but promoted cell division and enhanced significantly the plating efficiency. A higher percentage of electro-pulsed protoplasts showed sustained growth in culture to the microcallus stage compared to untreated protoplasts. The rate of cell division was also stimulated in electro-treated protoplasts. These observations are discussed in relation to present knowledge of the effects of electrical treatments on plant and animal cells. 相似文献

Arabidopsis CAP regulates the actin cytoskeleton necessary for plant cell elongation and division 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4 下载免费PDF全文
An Arabidopsis cDNA (AtCAP1) that encodes a predicted protein of 476 amino acids highly homologous with the yeast cyclase-associated protein (CAP) was isolated. Expression of AtCAP1 in the budding yeast CAP mutant was able to rescue defects such as abnormal cell morphology and random budding pattern. The C-terminal domain, 158 amino acids of AtCAP1 possessing in vitro actin binding activity, was needed for the regulation of cytoskeleton-related defects of yeast. Transgenic plants overexpressing AtCAP1 under the regulation of a glucocorticoid-inducible promoter showed different levels of AtCAP1 accumulation related to the extent of growth abnormalities, in particular size reduction of leaves as well as petioles. Morphological alterations in leaves were attributable to decreased cell size and cell number in both epidermal and mesophyll cells. Tobacco suspension-cultured cells (Bright Yellow 2) overexpressing AtCAP1 exhibited defects in actin filaments and were unable to undergo mitosis. Furthermore, an immunoprecipitation experiment suggested that AtCAP1 interacted with actin in vivo. Therefore, AtCAP1 may play a functional role in actin cytoskeleton networking that is essential for proper cell elongation and division. 相似文献

Somatic cytokinesis in higher plants involves, besides the actual construction of a new cell wall, also the determination of a division zone. Several proteins have been shown to play a part in the mechanism that somatic plant cells use to control the positioning of the new cell wall. Plant cells determine the division zone at an early stage of cell division and use a transient microtubular structure, the preprophase band (PPB), during this process. The PPB is formed at the division zone, leaving behind a mark that during cytokinesis is utilized by the phragmoplast to guide the expanding cell plate toward the correct cortical insertion site. This review discusses old and new observations with regard to mechanisms implicated in the orientation of cell division and determination of a cortical division zone. 相似文献

Plant cytokinesis requires an orchestrated interplay of membrane and cytoskeleton dynamics, which results in the formation of the membrane that partitions the cytoplasm of the dividing cell. Until recently, phragmoplast-assisted cytokinesis of somatic cells was regarded as mechanistically different from 'non-conventional' modes of cytokinesis, such as endosperm cellularisation or male meiotic cytokinesis. However, features that are similar among these diverse modes of cytokinesis have now been revealed by electron tomography, suggesting common underlying mechanisms that are also supported by genetic and molecular studies. Further insight into the complex process of cytokinesis has been gained from the identification of new components and from the analysis of known components. 相似文献

The carrot cell suspension was originally used because it provided a model system for studying directional cell expansion - a key process in plant morphogenesis. Early immunofluorescence studies of plant microtubules, using these cells, provided hints that the cortical array of microtubules was dynamic and this was later confirmed by microinjection studies on plant epidermal cells. A nonfixation approach for detecting F-actin was then developed on these cells and showed that, unlike animal cells, actin filaments remained associated with the nucleus throughout division and could have a role in aligning the plane of cell division. Currently, we are using detergent-extracted carrot cytoskeletons for isolating microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs). I discuss how MAPs may be involved in the oriented deposition of cellulose in the cell wall. 相似文献

In the present study, we have characterized the action of the natural cyclodepsipeptide jasplakinolide (JAS) on the cytoplasmic architecture, actin-based cytoplasmic motility, and the organization of the actin cytoskeleton in selected examples of green algae (Acetabularia, Pseudobryopsis and Nitella) and higher plant cells (Allium bulb scale cells and Sinapis root hairs). JAS was capable of influencing the actin cytoskeleton and inhibiting cytoplasmic streaming in a differential, cell type-specific manner. With the exception of Nitella, two consecutive responses were observed upon incubation with 2.5 microM JAS: In the first phase cytoplasmic streaming increased transiently alongside with minor modifications of the actin cytoskeleton in the form of adventitious actin spots and spikes appearing throughout the cell cortex in addition to the normal actin bundle system typical for each cell type. In the second phase, cytoplasmic streaming stopped and the actin cytoskeleton became heavily reorganized into shorter, straight, more and more randomly oriented bundle segments. JAS exerted severe long-term effects on the actin cytoskeleton when treatments exceeded 30min at a concentration of 2.5 microM. An in situ competition assay using equimolar concentrations of JAS and FITC-phalloidin suggested that JAS has a phalloidin-like action. Effects of JAS were significantly different from those of cytochalasin D with respect to the resulting degree of perturbance of cytoplasmic organization, the distribution of actin filaments and the speed of reversibility. 相似文献

Vacuoles in plant cells can be eliminated by centrifugation of protoplasts through a density gradient. In this review, properties
of evacuolated protoplasts, named ‘miniprotoplasts’, and the significant roles in plant cytoskeleton studies are described.
Miniprotoplasts, prepared from tobacco BY-2 cells whose cell-cycle had been synchronized at late anaphase, continued to divide
to form two daughter cells. In the presence of cytochalasin B cytokinetic cleavage was enhanced, suggesting a role of actin
filaments in plant cytokinesis. In the cytoplasmic extract of miniprotoplasts both tubulin and actin could be polymerized
to form microtubules (MTs) and actin filaments (AFs), respectively. A purification method for tubulin, actin and related proteins
was developed using the extract. To investigate the interaction between cortical microtubules and the plasma membrane, an
experimental system in which MTs were reconstructed on membrane ghosts was developed by combination of membrane ghosts and
the extract. 相似文献

Many plants acquire freezing tolerance through cold acclimatization (CA), a prolonged exposure to low but non-freezing temperatures at the onset of winter. CA is associated with gene expression that requires transient calcium influx into the cytosol. Alfalfa (Medicago sativa) cells treated with agents blocking this influx are unable to cold-acclimatize. Conversely, chemical agents causing increased calcium influx induce cold acclimatization-specific (cas) gene expression in alfalfa at 25 degrees C. How low temperature triggers calcium influx is, however, unknown. We report here that induction of a CA-specific gene (cas30), calcium influx and freezing tolerance at 4 degrees C are all prevented by cell membrane fluidization, but, conversely, are induced at 25 degrees C by membrane rigidification. cas30 expression and calcium influx at 4 degrees C are also prevented by jasplakinolide (JK), an actin microfilament stabilizer, but induced at 25 degrees C by the actin microfilament destabilizer cytochalasin D (CD). JK blocked the membrane rigidifier-induced, but not the calcium channel agonist-induced cas30 expression at 25 degrees C. These findings indicate that cytoskeleton re-organization is an integral component in low-temperature signal transduction in alfalfa cell suspension cultures, serving as a link between membrane rigidification and calcium influx in CA. 相似文献

Summary. In higher-plant cells, microtubules, actin microfilaments, and vacuoles play important roles in a variety of cellular events,
including cell division, morphogenesis, and cell differentiation. These intracellular structures undergo dynamic changes in
their shapes and functions during cell division and differentiation, and to analyse these sequential structural changes, the
vital labelling technique, using the green-fluorescent protein or other fluorescent proteins, has commonly been used to follow
the localisation and translocation of specific proteins. To visualise microtubules, actin filaments, and vacuoles, several
strategies are available for selecting the appropriate fluorescent-protein fusion partner: microtubule-binding proteins, tubulin,
and plus-end-tracking proteins are most suitable for microtubule labelling; the actin binding domain of mouse talin and plant
fimbrin for actin microfilament visualisation; and the tonoplast-intrinsic proteins and syntaxin-related proteins for vacuolar
imaging. In addition, three-dimensional reconstruction methods are indispensable for localising the widely distributed organelles
within the cell. The maximum intensity projection method is suitable for cytoskeletal structures, while contour-based surface
modelling possesses many advantages for vacuolar membranes. In this article, we summarise the recent progress in living cell
imaging of the plant cytoskeleton and vacuoles using various fusions with green-fluorescent proteins and three-dimensional
imaging techniques.

The actin cytoskeleton is one of the most important components of eukaryotic cytoskeletons. It participates in numerous crucial
procedures of cells and has been studied by using various methods. The development and application of appropriate probes for
actin visualization is the first and foremost step for functional analysis of actin in vivo. Since the actin cytoskeleton
is a highly dynamic and sensitive structure, methods previously used to visualize actin often harm cells and cannot reveal
the native state of the actin cytoskeleton in living cells. The development of labeling technologies for living plant cells,
especially the emergence and application of green fluorescent protein-tagged actin markers, has provided new insights into
the structure and function of the actin cytoskeleton in vivo. There has been a number of probes for actin labeling in living
plant cells though they each present different advantages and defects. In this review, we discuss and compare those widely
used methods for actin visualization and analysis. 相似文献

Biological systems are by nature complex and this complexity has been shown to be important in maintaining homeostasis. The plant microtubule cytoskeleton is a highly complex system, with contributing factors through interactions with microtubule-associated proteins (MAPs), expression of multiple tubulin isoforms, and post-translational modification of tubulin and MAPs. Some of this complexity is specific to microtubules, such as a redundancy in factors that regulate microtubule depolymerization. Plant microtubules form partial helical fractals that play a key role in development. It is suggested that, under certain cellular conditions, other categories of microtubule fractals may form including isotropic fractals, triangular fractals, and branched fractals. Helical fractal proteins including coiled-coil and armadillo/beta-catenin repeat proteins and the actin cytoskeleton are important here too. Either alone, or in combination, these fractals may drive much of plant development. 相似文献

Nuclear inheritance is highly ordered, ensuring stringent, unbiased partitioning of chromosomes before cell division. In plants, however, little is known about the analogous cellular processes that might ensure unbiased inheritance of non-nuclear organelles, either in meristematic cell divisions or those induced during the acquisition of totipotency. We have investigated organelle redistribution and inheritance mechanisms during cell division in cultured tobacco mesophyll protoplasts. Quantitative analysis of organelle repositioning observed by autofluorescence of chloroplasts or green fluorescent protein (GFP), targeted to mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum (ER), demonstrated that these organelles redistribute in an ordered manner before division. Treating protoplasts with cytoskeleton-disrupting drugs showed that redistribution depended on actin filaments (AFs), but not on microtubules (MTs), and furthermore, that an intact actin cytoskeleton was required to achieve unbiased organelle inheritance. Labelling the actin cytoskeleton with a novel GFP-fusion protein revealed a highly dynamic actin network, with local reorganisation of this network itself, appearing to contribute substantially to repositioning of chloroplasts and mitochondria. Our observations show that each organelle exploits a different strategy of redistribution to ensure unbiased partitioning. We conclude that inheritance of chloroplasts, mitochondria and ER in totipotent plant cells is an ordered process, requiring complex interactions with the actin cytoskeleton. 相似文献
