Probenazole (PBZ) induces non-race specific resistance in rice plants against rice blast fungus and PBZ1 was identified as a PBZ-inducible gene from rice. The induction of PBZ1 expression in suspension-cultured rice cells was investigated. Northern blot analysis indicated that PBZ1 was induced by PBZ in a dose-dependent manner. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) showed a dose and time-dependent accumulation of PBZ1 protein. Both mRNA and protein analysis showed that PBZ1 was not induced by salicylic acid or an active metabolite, 1,2-benzisothiazole-1,1-dioxide. 相似文献

The ability of a plant to respond to gravity is crucial for growth and development throughout the life cycle. A key player in the cellular mechanisms of gravitropism is ARG1 (altered response to gravity), a DnaJ-like protein that associates with components of the vesicular trafficking pathway and carries a C-terminal domain with similarities to cytoskeleton-associated proteins. The arg1-2 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana has reduced and delayed gravitropism in roots, shoots, and inflorescence stems when grown in the light or dark. We performed light microscopic studies of plastid movement in the gravity-perceiving statocytes (endodermal cells) of hypocotyls of arg1-2 and WT light-grown seedlings following reorientation to better characterize the role of ARG1 in gravitropism. Cryofixation/freeze substitution procedures were used because they provide a reliable indication of rapid cellular events within the statocytes. Our results suggest that ARG1 affects gravitropism by reducing plastid movement/sedimentation, a process known to be essential for early phases of signaling cascades in the statocytes. 相似文献

Many environmental stimuli, including light, biotic and abiotic stress factors, induce changes in cellular Ca(2+) concentrations in plants. Such Ca(2+) signatures are perceived by sensor molecules such as calcineurin B-like (CBL) proteins. AtCBL1, a member of the CBL family which is highly inducible by multiple stress signals, is known to function in the salt stress signal transduction pathway and to positively regulate the plant tolerance to salt. To shed light into the molecular mechanisms of the salt stress response mediated by AtCBL1, a two-dimensional DIGE proteomic approach was applied to identify the differentially expressed proteins in Arabidopsis wild-type and cbl1 null mutant plants in response to salt stress. Seventy-three spots were found altered in expression by least 1.2-fold and 50 proteins were identified by MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS, including some well-known and novel salt-responsive proteins. These proteins function in various processes, such as signal transduction, ROS scavenging, energy production, carbon fixation, metabolism, mRNA processing, protein processing and structural stability. Receptor for activated C kinase 1C (RACK1C, spot 715), a WD40 repeat protein, was up-regulated in the cbl1 null mutant, and two rack1c mutant lines showed decreased tolerance to salt stress, suggesting that RACK1C plays a role in salt stress resistance. In conclusion, our work demonstrated the advantages of the proteomic approach in studies of plant biology and identified candidate proteins in CBL1-mediated salt stress signaling network. 相似文献

Numerous reports have predicted/hypothesized a role for probenazole-induced protein (PBZ1) as a molecular marker in rice self-defense mechanism. However, the precise function of PBZ1 remains unknown. In the present study, we examined PBZ1 as a putative cell death marker in rice. For this, we focused our attention on a rice lesion mimic mutant (LMM), spotted leaf 1 ( spl1), which has been used to study the programmed cell death (PCD) phenomenon during lesion development in leaf. Using two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DGE), 18 colloidal Coomassie brilliant blue stained protein spots were found to be differentially expressed in the leaves of spl1 mutant. After analysis of these spots by MALDI-TOF-MS, we identified the PBZ1 protein to be highly inducible in spl1. On the basis of these results, we proceeded to verify whether PBZ1 is highly expressed in the tissues undergoing PCD in rice. To do so, we performed immunoblot analysis and immunolocalization and used transgenic lines carrying the PBZ1 promoter fused with GFP. Results demonstrated that the expression levels and localizations of PBZ1 dramatically coincided with tissues undergoing PCD, namely, during leaf senescence, root aerenchyma formation, coleoptiles senescence, root cap, and seed aleurone layer. Furthermore, localization of the PBZ1 protein was also tightly correlated with TUNEL signal in the seed aleurone layer. As DNA fragmentation is a hallmark of PCD, this result clearly indicates a role for PBZ1 in rice tissues undergoing PCD. In conclusion, our results provide strong support for the hypothesis that PBZ1 is a molecular marker in rice defense response, and can serve as a novel potential marker for cell death/PCD in rice. 相似文献

The nucleus is the subcellular organelle that contains nearly all the genetic information required for the regulated expression of cellular proteins. In this study, we comprehensively characterized the Arabidopsis nuclear proteome. Nuclear proteins were isolated and analyzed using two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS). Approximately 500-700 spots were detected in reference 2D gels of nuclear proteins. Proteomic analyses led to the identification of 184 spots corresponding to 158 different proteins implicated in a variety of cellular functions. We additionally analyzed the changes in the nuclear proteome in response to cold stress. Of the 184 identified proteins, 54 were up- or downregulated with a greater than twofold change in response to cold treatment. Among these, six proteins were selected for further characterization. Northern analysis data revealed that gene expression of these proteins was also altered by cold stress. Following transient expression in BY-2 protoplasts, two proteins were detected in both the cytoplasm and the nucleus and four others were detected exclusively in the nucleus, which correlates well with the nuclear localization patterns of the proteomic data. Our study provides an initial insight into the Arabidopsis nuclear proteome and its response to cold stress. 相似文献

A cold-sensitive Listeria monocytogenes mutant designated cld-14 was obtained by transposon Tn917 mutagenesis. The gene interrupted by Tn917 in cld-14 was the L. monocytogenes LMOf2365_1485 homolog, which exhibits 45.7% homology to the Bacillus subtilis yqfF locus. LMOf2365_1485, here designated pgpH, encodes a putative integral membrane protein with a predicted molecular mass of 81 kDa. PgpH is predicted to contain a conserved N-terminal signal peptide sequence, seven transmembrane helices, and a hydrophilic C terminus, which likely extends into the cytosol. The Tn917 insertion in pgpH is predicted to result in production of a premature polypeptide truncated at the fifth transmembrane domain. The C terminus of PgpH, which is probably absent in cld-14, contains a highly conserved HD domain that belongs to a metal-dependent phosphohydrolase family. Strain cld-14 accumulated higher levels of (p)ppGpp than the wild type accumulated, indicating that the function of PgpH may be to adjust cellular (p)ppGpp levels during low-temperature growth. The cld-14pgpH(+) complemented strain was able to grow at a low temperature, like the parent strain, providing direct evidence that the activity of PgpH is important in low-temperature adaptation. Because of its predicted membrane location, PgpH may play a critical role in sensing the environmental temperature and altering cellular (p)ppGpp levels to allow the organism to adapt to low temperatures. 相似文献

Genetic approaches using Arabidopsis thaliana aimed at the identification of mutations affecting events involved in auxin signalling have usually led to the isolation of auxin-resistant mutants. From a selection screen specifically developed to isolate auxin-hypersensitive mutants, one mutant line was selected for its increased sensitivity to auxin (x 2 to 3) for the root elongation response. The genetic analysis of sax1 (hypersensitive to abscisic acid and auxin) indicated that the mutant phenotype segregates as a single recessive Mendelian locus, mapping to the lower arm of chromosome 1. Sax1 seedlings grown in vitro showed a short curled primary root and small, round, dark-green cotyledons. In the greenhouse, adult sax1 plants were characterized by a dwarf phenotype, delayed development and reduced fertility. Further physiological characterization of sax1 seedlings revealed that the most striking trait was a large increase (x 40) in ABA-sensitivity of root elongation and, to a lesser extent, of ABA-induced stomatal closure; in other respects, hypocotyl elongation was resistant to gibberellins and ethylene. These alterations in hormone sensitivity in sax1 plants co-segregated with the dwarf phenotype suggesting that processes involved in cell elongation are modified. Treatment of mutant seedlings with an exogenous brassinosteroid partially rescued a wild-type size, suggesting that brassinosteroid biosynthesis might be affected in sax1 plants. Wild-type sensitivities to ABA, auxin and gibberellins were also restored in sax1 plants by exogenous application of brassinosteroid, illustrating the pivotal importance of the BR-related SAX1 gene. 相似文献

Cold stress has adverse effects on plant growth and development. Plants respond and acclimate to cold stress through various biochemical and physiological processes, thereby acquiring stress tolerance. To better understand the basis for tolerance, we carried out a proteomic study in the model moss, Physcomitrella patens, characterizing gametophore proteins with 2‐DE and mass spectroscopy. Following exposure to 0°C for up to 3 days, out of the more than 1000 protein spots reproducibly resolved, only 45 changed in abundance by at least 1.5‐fold. Of these, 35 were identified by tryptic digestion and mass spectroscopy. Photosynthetic proteins decreased, whereas many catabolic proteins increased. In addition, cold stress up‐regulated a variety of signaling, cytoskeleton, and defense proteins and few proteins in these classes were down‐regulated. Up‐regulated proteins include the 14‐3‐3‐like protein, actin, HSP70s, lipoxygenases, and cytochrome P450 proteins. These results point to pathways that are important for the mechanism of cold stress response in P. patens and by extension to the entire plant kingdom. 相似文献

Negative feedback regulation of ASK1 by protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) in response to oxidative stress. 总被引:13,自引:0,他引:13

Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 (ASK1) is a MAP kinase kinase kinase (MAPKKK) that activates the JNK and p38 MAP kinase cascades and is activated in response to oxidative stress such as hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)). A yeast two-hybrid screening identified a serine/threonine protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) as a binding partner of ASK1. PP5 directly dephosphorylated an essential phospho-threonine residue within the kinase domain of ASK1 and thereby inactivated ASK1 activity in vitro and in vivo. The interaction between PP5 and ASK1 was induced by H(2)O(2) treatment and was followed by the decrease in ASK1 activity. PP5 inhibited not only H(2)O(2)-induced sustained activation of ASK1 but also ASK1-dependent apoptosis. Thus, PP5 appears to act as a physiological inhibitor of ASK1-JNK/p38 pathways by negative feedback. 相似文献

Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase subunit C (AhpC) is the catalytic subunit responsible for alkyl peroxide metabolism. A Xanthomonas ahpC mutant was constructed. The mutant had increased sensitivity to organic peroxide killing, but was unexpectedly hyperresistant to H(2)O(2) killing. Analysis of peroxide detoxification enzymes in this mutant revealed differential alteration in catalase activities in that its bifunctional catalase-peroxidase enzyme and major monofunctional catalase (Kat1) increased severalfold, while levels of its third growth-phase-regulated catalase (KatE) did not change. The increase in catalase activities was a compensatory response to lack of AhpC, and the phenotype was complemented by expression of a functional ahpC gene. Regulation of the catalase compensatory response was complex. The Kat1 compensatory response increase in activity was mediated by OxyR, since it was abolished in an oxyR mutant. In contrast, the compensatory response increase in activity for the bifunctional catalase-peroxidase enzyme was mediated by an unknown regulator, independent of OxyR. Moreover, the mutation in ahpC appeared to convert OxyR from a reduced form to an oxidized form that activated genes in the OxyR regulon in uninduced cells. This complex regulation of the peroxide stress response in Xanthomonas differed from that in other bacteria. 相似文献

The double substitution of Glu156 with Leu and Gly157 with Val in the Escherichia coli RecA protein results in a severely reduced level of recombination and constitutive coprotease behavior. Here we present our examination of the biochemical properties of this mutant protein, RecA N99, in an effort to understand its phenotype and the role of loop 1 (L1) in RecA function. We find that RecA N99 protein has reduced single-stranded DNA (ssDNA)-dependent ATP hydrolysis activity, which is not as sensitive to the presence of SSB protein as wild-type RecA protein. RecA N99 protein is also nearly unable to utilize duplex DNA as a polynucleotide cofactor for ATP hydrolysis, and it shows both a decreased rate of association with ssDNA and a diminished capacity to bind DNA in the secondary binding site. The mutant protein has a corresponding reduction in DNA strand exchange activity, which probably results in the decrease in recombination activity in vivo. The constitutive induction of the SOS response may be a consequence of the impaired ability to repair damaged DNA, resulting in unrepaired ssDNA which can act as a cofactor for the cleavage of LexA repressor. These findings point to an involvement of L1 in both the primary and secondary DNA binding sites of the RecA protein. 相似文献

The liver is the major source of proteins used throughout the body for various functions. Upon injury or infection, an acute phase response (APR) is initiated in the liver that is primarily mediated by inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and interleukin-6. Among others, the APR is characterized by an altered protein synthetic profile. We used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis to study the dynamics of changes in protein synthesis in hepatocytes exposed to these inflammatory cytokines. Protein profiles were quantified using image analysis and further analyzed using multivariate statistical methods. Our results indicate that IL-1beta and IL-6 each induces secreted protein responses with distinct dynamics and dose-dependence. Parallel stimulation by IL-1beta and IL-6 results in a protein pattern indistinguishable from the IL-1beta pattern, indicating a dominant effect of IL-1beta over IL-6 at the doses tested. Multidimensional scaling (MDS) of correlation distances between protein secretion levels revealed two protein pairs that are robustly co-secreted across the various cytokine stimulation conditions, suggesting shared regulatory pathways. Finally, we also used multivariate alternating conditional expectation (MACE) to identify transformation functions that discriminated the cytokine-stimulated and untreated hepatocyte-secreted protein profiles. Our analysis indicates that the expression of neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) was sufficient to discriminate between IL-1beta and IL-6 stimulation. The combination of proteomics and multivariate analysis is expected to provide new information on the cellular regulatory networks involved in generating specific cellular responses. 相似文献

Francisella tularensis is a facultative intracellular pathogen. Its capacity to induce disease depends on the ability to invade and multiply within a wide range of eukaryotic cells, such as professional phagocytes. The comparative disinterest in tularemia in the past relative to other human bacterial pathogens is reflected in the paucity of information concerning the mechanisms of pathogenesis. Only a few genes and gene products associated with Francisella virulence are known to date. The aim of this study was to find and identify proteins of F. tularensis live vaccine strain induced in the presence of hydrogen peroxide, and to investigate the role of the IglC protein in the regulation of genes expressed upon peroxide stress. The [(35)S]-radiolabelled protein patterns were examined for both the wild live vaccine strain and its DeltaiglC1+2 mutant defective in synthesis of the IglC protein that was found to be strongly up-regulated during intracellular growth in murine macrophages in vitro and upon exposure to hydrogen peroxide. Globally, we found 21 protein spots whose levels were significantly altered in the presence of hydrogen peroxide in both the wild-type and mutant strains. 相似文献

shk1-D, a dwarf Arabidopsis mutant caused by activation of the CYP72C1 gene, has altered brassinosteroid levels 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant steroidal hormones that regulate plant growth and development. An Arabidopsis dwarf mutant, shrink1-D (shk1-D), was isolated and the phenotype was shown to be caused by activation of the CYP72C1 gene. CYP72C1 is a member of the cytochrome P450 monooxygenase gene family similar to BAS1/CYP734A1 that regulates BR inactivation. shk1-D has short hypocotyls in both light and dark, and short petioles and siliques. The seeds are also shortened along the longitudinal axis indicating CYP72C1 controls cell elongation. The expression of CPD, TCH4 and BAS1 were altered in CYP72C1 overexpression transgenic lines and endogenous levels of castasterone, 6-deoxocastasterone and 6-deoxotyphasterol were also altered. Unlike BAS1/CYP734A1 the expression of CYP72C1 was not changed by application of exogenous brassinolide. We propose that CYP72C1 controls BR homeostasis by modulating the concentration of BRs. 相似文献
