The protein pattern of leaf plasma membranes from Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Landsberg erecta was analysed in order to detect changes induced by acute short-term ozone treatment. Plasma membranes were isolated 0, 3 and 8 h after the end of a 2 h fumigation of the plants with 500 nmol mol?1 of O3. Proteins extracted from plasma membranes were separated by high-performance two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Eight hours after the end of fumigation, one new protein appeared and the amounts of two other proteins increased significantly. The reported study is a first step towards the identification of plasmalemma proteins altered by ozone and to a more detailed characterization of structural changes occurring in the plasma membrane after ozone exposure. 相似文献

Arabidopsis seed coat development using light and transmission electron microscopy revealed major morphological changes associated with
the transition of the integuments into the mature seed coat. By the use of a metachromatic staining procedure, cytological
events such as the production of phenolic compounds and acidic polysaccharides were followed. Immediately after fertilization,
the cells of the inner epidermis of the inner integument became vacuolated and subsequently accumulated pigment within them.
This pigment started to disappear from the cytoplasm at the torpedo stage of the embryo, as it became green. During the torpedo
stage, mucilage began to accumulate in the cells of the external epidermis of the outer integument. Furthermore, starch grains
accumulated against the central part of the inner periclinal wall of these cells, resulting in the formation of small pyramidal
domes that persisted until seed maturity. At the maturation stage, when the embryo became dormant and colourless, a new pigment
accumulation was observed in an amorphous layer derived from remnants of crushed integument layers. This second pigment layer
was responsible for the brown seed colour. These results show that seed coat formation may proceed in a coordinated way with
the developmental phases of embryogenesis.

Late flowering monogenic mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. at the loci co, gi, fca, fve, fwa, fha, fpa, fy and their corresponding wild type, Landsberg erecta , were analysed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. All plants were grown under continuous light and proteins were extracted from leaves of the same age (20-day-old). The polypeptide patterns of the mutants at the loci co, gi, fca, fve, fwa, fha, fpa , and Landsberg erecta were identical. The mutant at the fy locus showed a qualitative difference with Landsberg erecta . Crosses were made between this line and the wild type Landsberg erecta . F2 plants, resulting from autopollination of the hybrid, were analysed and showed no cosegregation between the observed protein and the flowering phenotype, indicating that these two lines differ by more than a single mutation. 相似文献

蛋白质的亚细胞定位对于深入了解该蛋白质所行使的生理功能具有重要意义。经生物信息学预测,两个拟南芥未知功能基因At4g16410与Atl gI8060编码蛋白含有叶绿体定位信息。我们分别克隆了这两个基因5’端长199bp与220bp的DNA片段,与绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)基因构建重组表达载体pMON530-cTP1-GFP与pMON530-cTP2-GFP,经农杆菌介导转化拟南芥。两种转基因植株经激光共聚焦显微镜观察,GFP荧光仅在叶绿体中观察到,表明所克隆的两段DNA序列编码的多肽能够将At4gl6410与Atlgl8060编码蛋白质引导进入叶绿体,确定这两个蛋白质均为叶绿体蛋白质。 相似文献

A total storage protein fraction was prepared from mustard (Sinapis alba L.) seeds via isolated protein bodies and characterized by sedimentation, immunological, and electrophoretic techniques. Mustard seed storage protein consists of three fractions (1) a “legumin-like” 13-S complex composed of two pairs of disulfide-linked polypeptides (16.5 + 28.5 kDa and 19.5 + 34 kDa, respectively) and two single polypeptides (18 kDa and 26 kDa), (2) a “vicilin-like” 9-S complex composed of two glycoproteins (64 kDa and 77 kDa), and (3) two small polypeptides (10 kDa and 11 kDa) which probably represent the 1.7-S complex found in other Cruciferae. In contrast to related species, no glycosylated polypeptide was found in the 13-S complex. Immunological relationships were found between the paired polypeptides of the 13-S complex but not between polypeptides of the 13-S complex and polypeptides of the 9-S complex. Pulse-chase labeling and in vitro translation of polysomal RNA from young embryos demonstrated that the polypeptides of the 13-S complex originate from high molecular mass precursors, except for the 18 kDa polypeptide which appears to be synthesized in its final size. The amino-acid composition of the major polypeptides of the mustard storage protein is given. 相似文献

Polycomb-group (Pc-G) proteins repress their target gene expression by assemble complexes in Drosophila and mammals. Three groups of Pc-G genes, controlling seed development, flower development and vernalization response, have been identified in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana L.). MEDEA (MEA), FERTILIZATION INDEPENDENT SEED2 (FIS2), and FERTILIZATION INDEPENDENT ENDOSPERM (FIE) are Pc-G genes in Arabidopsis. Their functions in seed development have been extensively explored. The advanced findings of molecular mechanism on how MEA, FIS2 and FIE control seed development in Arabidopsis are reviewed in this paper. 相似文献

Characterization of the ethanol-inducible alc gene-expression system in Arabidopsis thaliana 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Controlled expression of transgenes in plants is key to the characterization of gene function and the regulated manipulation of growth and development. The alc gene-expression system, derived from the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, has previously been used successfully in both tobacco and potato, and has potential for use in agriculture. Its value to fundamental research is largely dependent on its utility in Arabidopsis thaliana. We have undertaken a detailed function analysis of the alc regulon in A. thaliana. By linking the alcA promoter to beta-glucuronidase (GUS), luciferase (LUC) and green fluorescent protein (GFP) genes, we demonstrate that alcR-mediated expression occurs throughout the plant in a highly responsive manner. Induction occurs within one hour and is dose-dependent, with negligible activity in the absence of the exogenous inducer for soil-grown plants. Direct application of ethanol or exposure of whole plants to ethanol vapour are equally effective means of induction. Maximal expression using soil-grown plants occurred after 5 days of induction. In the majority of transgenics, expression is tightly regulated and reversible. We describe optimal strategies for utilizing the alc system in A. thaliana. 相似文献

The complete nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genome of Arabidopsis thaliana has been determined. The genome as a circular DNA composed of 154,478 bp containing a pair of inverted repeats of 26,264 bp, which are separated by small and large single copy regions of 17,780 bp and 84,170 bp, respectively. A total of 87 potential protein-coding genes including 8 genes duplicated in the inverted repeat regions, 4 ribosomal RNA genes and 37 tRNA genes (30 gene species) representing 20 amino acid species were assigned to the genome on the basis of similarity to the chloroplast genes previously reported for other species. The translated amino acid sequences from respective potential protein-coding genes showed 63.9% to 100% sequence similarity to those of the corresponding genes in the chloroplast genome of Nicotiana tabacum, indicating the occurrence of significant diversity in the chloroplast genes between two dicot plants. The sequence data and gene information are available on the World Wide Web database KAOS (Kazusa Arabidopsis data Opening Site) at http://www.kazusa.or.jp/arabi/. 相似文献

We analyzed the complete genome sequence of Arabidopsis thaliana and sequence data from 83 genes in the outcrossing A. lyrata, to better understand the role of gene expression on the strength of natural selection on synonymous and replacement sites in Arabidopsis. From data on tRNA gene abundance, we find a good concordance between codon preferences and the relative abundance of isoaccepting tRNAs in the complete A. thaliana genome, consistent with models of translational selection. Both EST-based and new quantitative measures of gene expression (MPSS) suggest that codon preferences derived from information on tRNA abundance are more strongly associated with gene expression than those obtained from multivariate analysis, which provides further support for the hypothesis that codon bias in Arabidopsis is under selection mediated by tRNA abundance. Consistent with previous results, analysis of protein evolution reveals a significant correlation between gene expression level and amino acid substitution rate. Analysis by MPSS estimates of gene expression suggests that this effect is primarily the result of a correlation between the number of tissues in which a gene is expressed and the rate of amino acid substitution, which indicates that the degree of tissue specialization may be an important determinant of the rate of protein evolution in Arabidopsis. 相似文献

Self-incompatibility in Brassica species is regulated by a set of S-locus genes: SLG, SRK, and SP11/SCR. In the vicinity of the S-locus genes, several expressed genes, SLL2 and SP2/ClpP, etc., were identified in B. campestris. Arabidopsis thaliana is a self-compatible Brassica relative, and its complete genome has been sequenced. From comparison of the genomic sequences between B. campestris and A. thaliana, microsynteny between gene clusters of Arabidopsis and Brassica SLL2 regions was observed, though the S-locus genes, SLG, SRK, and SP11/SCR were not found in the region of Arabidopsis. Almost all genes predicted in this region of Arabidopsis were expressed in both vegetative and reproductive organs, suggesting that the genes in the SLL2 region might not be related to self-incompatibility. Considering the recent speculation that the S-locus genes were translocated as a single unit between Arabidopsis and Brassica, the translocation might have occurred in the region between the SLL2 and SP7 genes. 相似文献

以拟南芥原生质体为实验体系,研究不同浓度的3种重金属离子对拟南芥原生质体的毒性和DNA损伤的差异。结果表明,用1-5mmol·L^-1的Zn^2+、Cd^2+和Cu^2+分别处理的拟南芥原生质体,2小时内活力逐渐下降,并表现出明显的浓度依赖性:与相同浓度的Cd^2+和Cu^2+相比,Zn^2+对拟南芥原生质体活力的影响程度较小,表现出较低的毒性。单细胞凝胶电泳检测发现,用0.1-0.8mmol·L^-1的Zn^2+、Cd^2+和Cu^2+分别处理拟南芥原生质体30分钟,以OTM值表示的原生质体DNA损伤量随重金属离子浓度的增加而递增:相同浓度(0.5mmol·L^-1)的3种重金属离子相比,Zn^2+对原生质体的遗传毒性明显低于Cu^2+和Cd^2+。综合原生质体活力和DNA损伤的单细胞凝胶电泳检测结果,发现ZnO^2+对拟南芥原生质体的遗传毒性较低,而CdO^2+和Cu^2+的遗传毒性较高。本研究建立的拟南芥原生质体实验体系,结合运用单细胞凝胶电泳技术,能够快速、灵敏地检测重金属对植物细胞的遗传毒性。 相似文献

The seed in the mature and dry state is metabolically inactive (quiescent) and is thus able to withstand extreme environmental conditions, such as drought and cold. Germination commences when the dry seed, shed from its parent plant, takes up water (imbibition) and ends when the root emerges through the seed coat. During seedling establishment, the reserves stored in the seed are metabolized, whereas the subsequent vegetative and reproductive growth is supported by photosynthesis. Here, we describe the functional characterization of the PH-START protein AtAPO1 (Arabidopsis thaliana APOSTART1), the putative homologue of PpAPO1 (Poa pratensis APOSTART1) in Arabidopsis thaliana. By using translational fusion of the AtAPO1 promoter to the uiaD gene and in situ hybridization analyses, we show that AtAPO1 is expressed in mature embryo sacs and developing embryos. The functional analysis of two at-apostart mutant alleles suggests that AtAPO1 is involved in the control of seed germination. 相似文献

In this study, megasporogenesis of the plant model Arabidopsis thaliana was investigated by electron microscopy for the first time. The data described here could constitute a reference for future
investigations of Arabidopsis mutants. During the beginning of meiosis the megaspore mother cell shows a polarity created by unequal distribution of organelles
in the cytoplasm. Plastids accumulate in the chalazal region and long parallel saccules of endoplasmic reticulum, small vacuoles
and some dictyosomes are found in the micropylar region. Plasmodesmata are abundant in the chalazal cell wall. The nucleus
is almost centrally localized and contains a prominent excentric nucleolus and numerous typical synaptonemal complexes. After
the second division of meiosis the four megaspores are separated by thin cell walls crossed by numerous plasmodesmata and
do not show significant cellular organization. The young functional megaspore is characterized by a large nucleus and a large
granular nucleolus. The cytoplasm is very electron dense due to the abundance of free ribosomes and contains the following
randomly distributed organelles: mitochondria, a few short saccules of endoplasmic reticulum, dictyosomes and undifferentiated
plastids. However, there is no apparent polarity, except for the distribution of some small vacuoles which are more abundant
in the micropylar region of the cell. The degenerating megaspores are extremely electron dense and do not show any substructure.
