Abstract Video recordings of interference phase contrast microscopy were used to study plasmalemma deletion during plasmolysis in hardened and non-hardened suspension cultured cells of Brassica napus, alfalfa, and cells isolated from rye seedlings. Although different hardening regimes and different cells were used, the responses to plasmolysis were consistent. Hardened cells uncoupled the volume to surface area ratio during plasmolysis both by forming a large number of strands between the cell wall and protoplast and by leaving rivulet-like networks of membranes on the cell wall surface. Tonoplast membrane was deleted as sac-like intrusions into the vacuole. Non-hardened cells produced few strands during plasmolysis. They also deleted plasmalemma and tonoplast into the vacuole as endocytotic vesicles. During deplasmolysis of hardened cells both the individual membrane strands and the rivulets of membrane material vesiculated into strings of vesicles. The vesicles were osmotically active and were re-incorporated into the expanding protoplast. Conversely, deplasmolysis in non-hardened cells resulted in few osmotically active vesicles and many broken strands. The vacuolar sac-like intrusions in hardened cells were re-incorporated into the vacuole whereas the endocytotic vesicles in non-hardened cells were not re-incorporated. Therefore, the non-hardened cells underwent expansion-induced lysis. 相似文献

The overall washing out of ions, especially86Rb+ (as the tracer for K+), from hypocotyl segments of pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) into distilled water or a CaCl2 solution was studied, during plasmolysis with a saccharose solution and during deplasmolysis. Compartimental analysis was
used to evaluate the86Rb+ washing out kinetics. During plasmolysis, the washing out of86Rb+ increases, due to two processes whose half-times are lower than those during washing out into the CaCl2 solution. During deplasmolysis, the permeability of plasmalemma and tonoplast is substantially descreased, leading to washing
out of most86Rb+ from the cells. Plasmolysis differs from a mere decrease in the turgor pressure in the fact that after exchange for a hypotonic
solution the membranes are irreversibly damaged.
The aim of this work was to monitor the changes in the cell membrane permeability due to a change in the water potential of
the cells, especially during plasmolysis and deplasmolysis. 相似文献

Summary With means of cinemicrographic methods it is tried to determine absolute values (2Kinwo) for the water permeability of tonoplasts of the inner epidermis cells ofAllium cepa bulbs as exactly as possible. Compared with uninjured protoplasts, tonoplasts show a water permeability which is mostly 20–30 times higher, largely independent on various kinds of pretreatment and/ or influences on the cell.Isoptin or EDTA for instance enhance the permeability for water as well of protoplasts as of tonoplasts. Slighter differences are found in cases of Alterungstonoplasten with controlexperiments. The water permeability of this kind of tonoplast is only 3 to 6 times higher as that of the corresponding protoplasts.The influence of various error sources on the value of the water permeability constant 2Kinwo is discussed guided by some select examples. To the facts influencing the value belong besides the position of the pair of points on the water permeability curve, especially also the selection of the exact value forl
0. The influence of ion permeability on which also thel
0-value is partly dependent is one fact to be considered. 相似文献

In order to analyze the distribution of lead between cell walls and plasmalemma, two-day-old maize seedlings (Zea mays L.) were incubated for 24 h on a solution of lead nitrate at a concentration causing 50% inhibition of root growth (10–5 M). Using the histochemical technique (precipitation of lead dithizonate), the distribution of lead in plasmolyzed and nonplasmolyzed cells of the root cortex was compared. This allowed us to separate the lead bound by cell walls from the lead located on the protoplast surface and in the periplasmic space. The plasmolysis was conducted prior to histochemical reaction by the incubation of seedling roots in 0.6 M sucrose solution for 30 min. The lead precipitates were located in cell walls and on the surface of protoplast. A small amount of lead was found in periplasmic space of some cells in root cortex. It is suggested that the lead is bound not only to the cell wall matrix but also to the plasmalemma. 相似文献

A plasmolytic cycle: The fate of cytoskeletal elements 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Summary In most plant cells, transfer to hypertonic solutions causes osmotic loss of water from the vacuole and detachment of the living protoplast from the cell wall (plasmolysis). This process is reversible and after removal of the plasmolytic solution, protoplasts can re-expand to their original size (deplasmolysis). We have investigated this phenomenon with special reference to cytoskeletal elements in onion inner epidermal cells. The main processes of plasmolysis seem to be membrane dependent because destabilization of cytoskeletal elements had only minor effects on plasmolysis speed and form. In most cells, the array of cortical microtubules is similar to that found in nonplasmolyzed states except that longitudinal patterns seen in some control cells were never observed in plasmolyzed protoplasts of onion inner epidermis. As soon as deplasmolysis starts, cortical microtubules become disrupted and only slowly regenerate to form an oblique array, similar to most nontreated cells. Actin microfilaments responded rapidly to the plasmolysis-induced deformation of the protoplast and adapted to its new form without marked changes in organization and structure. Both actin microfilaments and microtubules can be present in Hechtian strands, which, in plasmolyzed cells, connect the cell wall to the protoplast. Anticytoskeletal drugs did not affect the formation of Hechtian strands.Abbreviations DIC

Abstract. The osmotic behaviour of vacuolated plant cells (adaxial epidermal cells of Allium cepa bulb scales, and epidermal as well as chloroplast containing subepidermal stem base cells of Pisum sativum) was studied over a wide range of CaCl2 concentrations. The following results were obtained.
- a. Allium cepa and Pisum sativum plant cells behave as an ideal osmometer as far as plasmolytic contraction of the protoplast is concerned.
- b. The protoplasts of these cells could be plasmolysed to 15–45% of their original volume without the loss of membrane semi-permeability.
- c. Cells plasmolysed in 1.0 kmol m?3 CaCl2 could be completely deplasmolysed and upon deplasmolysis the cells resumed protoplasmic streaming.
- d. The above findings (a-c) indicate that during gradual plasmolysis and deplasmolysis membrane semi-permeability is maintained.
- e. At very high plasmolysing concentrations vacuoles covered with the tonoplast separated from the rest of the protoplasm in some cells whereas others showed systrophy. Extruded vacuoles were able to respond to osmotic shrinkage.
- f. The non-solvent space in Allium cells of about 3% also corresponded to the protoplasm volume calculated from the protoplast geometry (mean from results of direct measurement method and subtraction method).
- g. Subepidermal stem base cells of water-stress-tolerant Pisum plants had a 75% greater non-solvent space than the control cells indicating that a water-stress-tolerant cell may contain a larger amount of protoplasm and/or a vacuole with a higher content of colloidal material in the vacuole.
- h. Water-stress-tolerant cells showed greater tolerance to osmotic dehydration (volume reduction) than control cells.

In order to distinguish between several possible mechanisms of frost hardening in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cells from two hardy and two tender cultivars were plasmolyzed in CaCl2 solution at room temperature and cell volumes estimated by microscopic examination. Analyses of Boyle-van't Hoff plots of these data reveal that all cells from cultivars progressively increase their intracellular solute concentration up to 20 days hardening. This increase, which we had predicted from published calorimetric data to be the sole mechanism of hardening explained less than half of the increase in hardening seen in the most hardy cultivar, Kharkov. Hardening also increased the osmotically inactive volume.At CaCl2 concentrations greater than 5%, plasmolyzed protoplasts departed further from the Boyle-van't Hoff prediction, remaining larger than expected until some higher concentration of CaCl2, where protoplast volume again sharply decreased. In all cultivars except hardened Kharkov, the concentration of CaCl2 producing this abrupt volume decrease had a freezing point corresponding to the killing temperature. If this concentration was exceeded during plasmolysis, then the protoplasts burst during deplasmolysis at some volume less than their original volume.We interpret these data to mean that, in addition to the often described hardening mechanism of increased cell solute and water binding, winter wheat shows a third mechanism, a mechanical resistance to protoplast shrinkage which produces volumes larger than those predicted during osmotic stress. The resisting element appears to be the plasma membrane itself. Shrinkage brings the membrane under compressive stress, developing tangential pressure within it. Cell injury occurs when the cell membrane area has been reduced to the point at which irreversible loss of membrane material is inevitable. Cell death occurs during deplasmolysis when the protoplast bursts because its membrane contains insufficient material to subtend the area of the cell wall.Of the cultivars tested, hardened Kharkov was unique in avoiding injury. Hardened Kharkov was injured only after the volume inflection had been greatly exceeded. Refractile droplets of lipid appeared in the cytoplasm of hardened Kharkov protoplasts during plasmolysis but disappeared during deplasmolysis suggesting that hardy Kharkov was able reversibly to store membrane lipids in cytoplasmic vesicles and return them to the membrane on deplasmolysis. 相似文献

Summary The patch-clamp technique in whole-cell configuration was used to study the electrical properties of the tonoplast in isolated vacuoles fromAcer pseudoplatanus cultured cells. In symmetrical KCl or K2 malate solutions, voltage- and time-dependent inward currents were elicited by hyperpolarizing the tonoplast (inside negative), while in the positive range of potential the conductance was very small. The specific conductance of the tonoplast at –100 mV, in 100mm symmetrical KCl was about 160 S/cm2. The reversal potentials (E
rev) of the current, measured in symmetrical or asymmetrical ion concentrations (cation, anion or both) were very close to the values of the K+ equilibrium potential. Experiments performed in symmetrical or asymmetrical NaCl indicate that Na+ too can flow through the channels. NeitherE
rev nor amplitude and kinetics of the current changed by replacing NaCl with KCl in the external solution. These results indicate the presence of hyperpolarization-activated channels in tonoplasts, which are permeable to K+ as well as to Na+. Anions such as Cl– or malate seem to contribute little to the channel current. 相似文献

Summary The three-compartment model (paper I) described turgor pressure relaxations as a sum of two exponential functions. The predicted shape of the curves could be confirmed inChara corallina by improving the recording and processing of data. An evaluation on the basis of the three-compartment model provided values for the hydraulic conductivity of the plasmalemma ofLp
p=2×10–5 to 4×10–5 cm sec–1 bar–1 and ofLp
i=3×10–5 to 1×10–4 cm sec–1 bar–1 for the tonoplast (assuming the area to be 90% of the plasmalemma area). The mean proportion of the total volume occupied by the cytoplasm was calculated to be 9%. This value is consistent with the concept of a highly vacuolated cell. Other explanations for the biphasic relaxation curves are discussed. 相似文献

The permeability of a psychrophilic Acbromobacter strain to the chlorides of Na, K, Mg and Ca was investigated with light-scattering technique. Comparisons, were made with cells of Escherichia coli B. Cells of both strains suspended in “water were plasmolyzed by 0.1 or 0.2 M solutions of MgCl2 or CaCl2 without subsequent deplasmolysis. NaCl or KCl also plasmolyzed the cells, but deplasmolysis followed.” When suspended in growth medium E. coli became completely de-plasmolyzed., whereas the psychrophile still excluded MgCl2 and CaCl2 to a great extent. The plasmolysis and deplasmolysis were reversible. Electron micrographs of the psychrophile exposed to CaCl2 confirmed the presence of plasrnolysis. 相似文献

Osmotic Water Permeability of Vacuolar and Plasma Membranes Isolated from Maize Roots 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Trofimova M. S. Zhestkova I. M. Andreev I. M. Svinov M. M. Bobylev Yu. S. Sorokin E. M. 《Russian Journal of Plant Physiology》2001,48(3):287-293
The method of stopped flow was used to follow the changes in light scattering by the vesicles of plasmalemma and tonoplast isolated from maize (Zea maysL.) roots and treated by osmotic pressure. In both membrane preparations, the rate of the process depended on the osmotic gradient and was described with the simple exponential function. The rate constants derived from these functions were the following: the coefficient of water permeability in the tonoplast (P= 165 ± 7 m/s) exceeded by an order of magnitude the corresponding index for plasmalemma (11 ± 2 m/s). The presence of HgCl2(1.6 nmol/g membrane protein) decreased the tonoplast water permeability by 80%. Microviscosity studies of the hydrocarbon zone in the isolated membranes by using a fluorescent diphenylhexatriene probe demonstrated that the two membranes do not differ in the phase state of their lipid bilayer. The authors conclude that the observed difference in water permeability does not depend on the state of the lipid phase and probably reflects the dissimilar functional activity of plasmalemma and tonoplast aquaporins. 相似文献

Summary The origins of the two peaks of the action potential inNitella flexilis were analyzed by inserting two microelectrodes. one into the vacuole and the other into the cytoplasm. It was unequivocally demonstrated that the rapid first peak was generated at the plasmalemma and the slow second peak at the tonoplast. MnCl2 applied in the external medium abolished the second, tonoplast, peak but not the first, plasmalemma, peak, MnCl2 also inhibited the cessation of the cytoplasmic streaming accompanying the action potential. CaCl2 added in MnCl2-containing medium recovered generation of the tonoplast action potential and the streaming cessation. Since it has been established that the cessation of cytoplasmic streaming on membrane excitation is caused by an increase in cytoplasmic free Ca2– (Williamson, R.E., Ashley, C.C., 1982.Nature (London)

by vacuolar perfusion, the polarity of the second, slow peak was reversed from vacuolar positive to vacuolar negative with respect to the cytoplasm, supporting the previous report that the tonoplast action potential is caused by increase in Cl permeability (Kikuyama, M., Tazawa, M., 1976.J.

Summary Iljin's experiments withRhoeo discolor, cabbage and red beet which seemed to demonstrate increased drought resistance of plasmolysed tissue have been repeated, but his results could not be confirmed. The tissue plasmolysed in sucrose solutions, died either during stepwise plasmolysis and deplasmolysis or else later on, during exposure to unsaturated air within one or two days, even at the highest humidities. Iljin's error was apparently produced by a wrong interpretation of his tests of viability: the plasma of his dead cells did not disintegrate and retained anthocyanin by tonoplast plasmolysis.Plasmolysis proved harmful to all three objects investigated.In view of these results and earlier criticism of Iljin's analogous experiments on frost resistance by others, all experimental evidence produced in support of Iljin's mechanical theory of drought resistance should be reexamined. 相似文献

Summary Measurements on 3–6 days old root hair cells of cucumber, oats and maize, in a medium of 1.0 mN KCl plus 1.0 mN CaCl2, gave an average d.c. surface resistance value of 3,000 ohm·cm2 for the plasmalemma and of 3,500 or 3.600 ohm·cm2 for the plasmalemma and tonoplast in series. The average value for the combined surface resistance of the two membranes was about 1.2 times that of the plasmalemma alone, showing that in the above cells the latter membrane has a resistance appreciably more than that of the tonoplast.It is concluded that the plasmalemma offers a major barrier to the passive uptake of ions. This conclusion is supported by a consideration of transverse impedance measurements of young and old tissues. 相似文献

In the giant-celled marine algae Valonia utricularis the turgor-sensing mechanism of the plasmalemma and the role of the tonoplast in turgor regulation is unknown because of
the lack of solid data about the individual electrical properties of the plasmalemma and the vacuolar membrane. For this reason,
a vacuolar perfusion technique was developed that allowed controlled manipulation of the vacuolar sap under turgescent conditions
(up to about 0.3 MPa). Charge-pulse relaxation studies on vacuolarly perfused cells at different turgor pressure values showed
that the area-specific resistance of the total membrane barrier (tonoplast and plasmalemma) exhibited a similar dependence
on turgor pressure as reported in the literature for nonperfused cells: the resistance assumed a minimum value at the physiological
turgor pressure of about 0.1 MPa. The agreement of the data suggested that the perfusion process did not alter the transport
properties of the membrane barrier.
Addition of 16 μm of the H+-carrier FCCP (carbonylcyanide p-trifluoromethoxyphenyhydrazone) to the perfusion solution resulted in a drop of the total membrane potential from +4 mV to
−22 mV and in an increase of the area-specific membrane resistance from 6.8 × 10−2 to 40.6 × 10−2Ωm2. The time constants of the two exponentials of the charge pulse relaxation spectrum increased significantly. These results
are inconsistent with the assumption of a high-conductance state of the tonoplast (R. Lainson and C.P. Field, J. Membrane Biol.
29:81–94, 1976).
Depending on the site of addition, the pore-forming antibiotics nystatin and amphotericin B affected either the time constant
of the fast or of the slow relaxation (provided that the composition of the perfusion solution and the artificial sea water
were replaced by a cytoplasma-analogous medium). When 50 μm of the antibiotics were added externally, the fast relaxation process disappeared. Contrastingly, the slow relaxation process
disappeared upon vacuolar addition. The antibiotics cannot penetrate biomembranes rapidly, and therefore, the findings suggested
that the fast and slow relaxations originated exclusively from the electrical properties of the plasmalemma and the tonoplast
respectively. This interpretation implies that the area-specific resistance of the tonoplast is significantly larger than
that of the plasmalemma (consistent with the FCCP data) and that the area-specific capacitance of the tonoplast is unusually
high (6.21 × 10−2 Fm−2 compared to 0.77 × 10−2 Fm−2 of the plasmalemma). Thus, we have to assume that the vacuolar membrane of V. utricularis is highly folded (by a factor of about 9 in relation to the geometric area) and/or contains a fairly high concentration of
mobile charges of an unknown electrogenic ion carrier system.

We have previously reported that the isolated frog corneal epithelium (a Cl–-secreting epithelium) has a large diffusional water permeability (Pdw 1.8×10–4 cm/s). We now report that the presence of Cl– in the apical-side bathing solution increases the diffusional water flux, Jdw (in both directions) by 63% from 11.3 to 18.4 l min–1 · cm–2 with 60 mm [Cl] exerting the maximum effect. The presence of Cl– in the basolateral-side bathing solution had no effect on the water flux. In Cl–-free solutions amphotericin B increased Jdw by 29% but only by 3% in Cl–-rich apical-side bathing solution, suggesting that in Cl–-rich apical side bathing solution, the apical barrier is no longer rate limiting. Apical Br– (75 mm) also increased Jdw by 68%. The effect of Cl– on Jdw was observed within 1 min after its addition to the apicalside bathing solution. HgCl2 (0.5 mm) reduced the Cl–-increased Pdw by 31%. The osmotic permeability (Pf) was also measured under an osmotic gradient yielding values of 0.34 and 2.88 (x 10–3 cm/s) in Cl–-free and Cl–-rich apical-side bathing solutions respectively. It seems that apical Cl–, or Cl– secretion into the apical bath could activate normally present but inactive water channels. In the absence of Cl–, water permeability of the apical membrane seems to be limited to the permeability of the lipid bilayer.This work was supported by National Eye Institute grants EY-00160 and EY-01867. 相似文献

Summary This study is the first trial to measure the osmotic water permeability or the hydraulic conductivity of the plasmalemma alone of a plant cell. For this purpose tonoplast-free cells were prepared from intenodal cells ofChara australis and their hydraulic conductivities were measured by the transcellular osmosis method.The transcellular hydraulic conductivity did not change after removing the tonoplast. The transcellular hydraulic conductivity of the tonoplast-free cells was dependent on the internal osmotic pressure as is the case in the tonoplast-containing normal cells. The hydraulic conductivities for both endosmosis and exosmosis of the tonoplast-free cells were equal to respective values of the normal cells. Consequently the ratio between the inward and outward hydraulic conductivities did not change due to the loss of the tonoplast. The results indicate that the resistance of the tonoplast to water flow is negligibly small as compared with that of the plasmalemma and further that the tonoplast is not a factor responsible for the direction-dependency of hydraulic conductivity. The hydraulic conductivity of the plasmalemma is invariable for wide variations of K+ and Ca2+ in the cytoplasm. 相似文献

Abstract In conformity with earlier results, low-temperature hardening of cabbage seedlings lowered the osmotic potential and increased the permeability to thiourea of the petiole cells. It also decreased the time required for rounding-up of the protoplasts in cells plasmolysed in 1. 5 × isotonic (or higher) glucose or CaCl2 solutions. Solutions of dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO), thiourea, urea, and glycerol each accelerated the rate of rounding-up of protoplasts in plasmolysed cells, compared to the rate in glucose solution of the same hypertonicity. Each also penetrated the cell membranes as indicated by deplasmolysis. Only in the case of DMSO, in which there was very rapid deplasmolysis (5–6 min), was this rounding-up due to protoplast expansion. In the case of thiourea (deplasmolysis within 30–60 min) rounding-up occurred almost immediately (less than 2 min), before protoplast expansion was sufficient to induce it. It was concluded that the accelerated rounding-up was due to a rapid osmotic adjustment in the protoplasm by the penetrating solution, which increased its water content and decreased its viscosity. 相似文献

Summary ComparingFunaria protonema tip cells of different age and of experimentally modified growth rate (by changing the light-dark-regime, by application of colchicine and of D2O and by plasmolysis) we found that the site and intensity of growth are related closely to the distribution and frequency of particle rosettes in the PF of the plasma membrane. The results confirm previous suggestions that the rosettes are involved in cellulose fibril formation and that they have a rather short life time (about 10–15 minutes,Reiss
et al. 1984). The appearance of rosettes seems to depend on the exocytosis of Golgi vesicle containing wall matrix material. Morphometric calculations suggest that each Golgi vesicle may incorporate one rosette into the plasmalemma in caulonema tip cells. 相似文献

The Tonoplast Impedance of Chara 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The capacitance and conductance of the plasmalemma and tonoplastof Chara were measured simultaneously in space-clamped cells.At a frequency of 5 Hz the capacitance and conductance of thetonoplast were 60 ± 5 mF m2 (i. e. 6.0 µF cm2) and 6.5 ± 0.6 S m2 respectively.These values were respectively 2.9 ± 0.3 and 3.7 ±0.4 times greater than those of the plasmalemma. It is shownthat any leakage of current around the cytoplasmic electrodewill not drastically affect the calculated area-specific valuesof the tonoplast parameters under the experimental conditionsused, providing that the cytoplasm possesses a reasonable longitudinalconductivity. An examination of the relative measured impedancesof the plasmalemma and tonoplast supports this conclusion. Key words: Chara tonoplast: Plasmalemma, Capacitance/ conductance 相似文献
