Xylans are known to be major cellulose-linking polysaccharides in secondary cell walls in higher plants. We used two monoclonal antibodies (LM10 and LM11) for a comparative immunocytochemical analysis of tissue and cell distribution of xylans in a number of taxa representative of all major tracheophyte and bryophyte lineages. The results show that xylans containing the epitopes recognized by LM10 and LM11 are ubiquitous components of secondary cell walls in vascular and mechanical tissues in all present-living tracheophytes. In contrast, among the three bryophyte lineages, LM11 binding was detected in specific cell-wall layers in pseudoelaters and spores in the sporophyte of hornworts, while no binding was observed with either antibody in the gametophyte or sporophyte of liverworts and mosses. The ubiquitous occurrence of xylans containing LM10 and LM11 epitopes in tracheophytes suggests that the appearance of these polysaccharides has been a pivotal event for the evolution of highly efficient vascular and mechanical tissues. LM11 binding in the sporophyte of hornworts, indicating the presence of relatively highly substituted xylans (possibly arabinoxylans), separates these from the other bryophytes and is consistent with recent molecular data indicating a sister relationship of the hornworts with tracheophytes. 相似文献

The capacity of four xylan-directed probes (carbohydrate-binding modules Cf CBM2b-1-2 and Cj CBM15; monoclonal antibodies LM10 and LM11) to recognize xylan polysaccharides in primary and secondary cell walls of tobacco stem sections has been determined. Enzymatic removal of pectic homogalacturonan revealed differential recognition of xylans in restricted regions of cortical primary cell walls. Monoclonal antibody binding to these exposed xylans was more sensitive to xylanase action than carbohydrate-binding module (CBM) binding. In contrast, the recognition of xylans by CBMs in secondary cell walls of the same organ was more sensitive to xylanase action than the recognition of xylans by the monoclonal antibodies. A methodology was developed to quantify indirect immunofluorescence intensities, and to evaluate xylanase impacts. The four xylan probes were also used to detect xylan populations in chromatographic separations of solubilized cell wall materials from tobacco stems. Altogether, these observations reveal the heterogeneity of the xylans in plant cell walls. They indicate that although CBM and antibody probes can exhibit similar specificities against solubilized polymers, they can have differential capacities for xylan recognition in muro , and that the access of molecular probes and enzymes to xylan epitopes/ligands also varies between primary and secondary cell walls that are present in the same organ. 相似文献

We investigated the spatial and temporal distribution of xylans in the cell walls of differentiating earlywood tracheids of
Cryptomeria japonica using two different types of monoclonal antibodies (LM10 and LM11) combined with immunomicroscopy. Xylans were first deposited
in the corner of the S 1 layer in the early stages of S 1 formation in tracheids. Cell corner middle lamella also showed strong xylan labeling from the early stage of cell wall formation.
During secondary cell wall formation, the innermost layer and the boundary between the S 1 and S 2 layers (S 1/S 2 region) showed weaker labeling than other parts of the cell wall. However, mature tracheids had an almost uniform distribution
of xylans throughout the entire cell wall. Xylan localization labeled with LM10 antibody was stronger in the outer S 2 layer than in the inner layer, whereas xylans labeled with LM11 antibody were almost uniformly distributed in the S 2 layer. In addition, the LM10 antibody showed almost no xylan labeling in the S 1/S 2 region, whereas the LM11 antibody revealed strong xylan labeling in the S 1/S 2 region. These findings suggest that structurally different types of xylans may be deposited in the tracheid cell wall depending
on the developmental stage of, or location in, the cell wall. Our study also indicates that deposition of xylans in the early
stages of tracheid cell wall formation may be spatially consistent with the early stage of lignin deposition in the tracheid
cell wall. 相似文献

The distribution of noncellulosic polysaccharides in cell walls of tracheids and xylem parenchyma cells in normal and compression wood of Pinus radiata, was examined to determine the relationships with lignification and cellulose microfibril orientation. Using fluorescence microscopy combined with immunocytochemistry, monoclonal antibodies were used to detect xyloglucan (LM15), β(1,4)-galactan (LM5), heteroxylan (LM10 and LM11), and galactoglucomannan (LM21 and LM22). Lignin and crystalline cellulose were localized on the same sections used for immunocytochemistry by autofluorescence and polarized light microscopy, respectively. Changes in the distribution of noncellulosic polysaccharides between normal and compression wood were associated with changes in lignin distribution. Increased lignification of compression wood secondary walls was associated with novel deposition of β(1,4)-galactan and with reduced amounts of xylan and mannan in the outer S2 (S2L) region of tracheids. Xylan and mannan were detected in all lignified xylem cell types (tracheids, ray tracheids, and thick-walled ray parenchyma) but were not detected in unlignified cell types (thin-walled ray parenchyma and resin canal parenchyma). Mannan was absent from the highly lignified compound middle lamella, but xylan occurred throughout the cell walls of tracheids. Using colocalization measurements, we confirmed that polysaccharides containing galactose, mannose, and xylose have consistent correlations with lignification. Low or unsubstituted xylans were localized in cell wall layers characterized by transverse cellulose microfibril orientation in both normal and compression wood tracheids. Our results support the theory that the assembly of wood cell walls, including lignification and microfibril orientation, may be mediated by changes in the amount and distribution of noncellulosic polysaccharides. 相似文献

We investigated the microdistribution of xylans in different cell types of Arabidopsis stem using immunolocalization methods with LM10 and LM11 antibodies. Xylan labeling in xylary fibers (fibers) was initially detected at the cell corner of the S(1) layer and increased gradually during fiber maturation, showing correlation between xylan labeling and general secondary cell wall formation processes in fibers. Metaxylem vessels (vessels) showed earlier development of secondary cell walls than fibers, but revealed almost identical labeling patterns to fibers during maturation. No difference in labeling patterns and intensity was detected in the cell wall of fibers, vessels and protoxylem vessels (proto-vessels) between LM10 and LM11, indicating that vascular bundle cells may be chemically composed of a highly homogeneous xylan type. Interestingly, interfascicular fibers (If-fibers) showed different labeling patterns between the two antibodies and also between different developmental stages. LM10 showed no labeling in primary cell walls and intercellular layers of If-fibers at the S(1) formation stage, but some labeling was detected in middle lamella cell corner regions at the S(2) formation stage. In contrast, LM11 revealed uniform labeling across the If-fiber cell wall during all developmental stages. These results suggest that If-fibers have different xylan deposition processes and patterns from vascular bundle cells. The presence of xylan was also confirmed in parenchyma cells following pectinase treatment. Together our results indicate that there are temporal and spatial differences in xylan labeling between cell types in Arabidopsis stem. Differences in xylan labeling between Arabidopsis stem and poplar are also discussed. 相似文献

Xylans occupy approximately one-third of the cell wall components in hardwoods and their chemical structures are well understood. However, the microdistribution of xylans (O-acetyl-4-O-methylglucuronoxylans, AcGXs) in the cell wall and their correlation with functional properties of cells in hardwood xylem is poorly understood. We demonstrate here the spatial and temporal distribution of xylans in secondary xylem cells of hybrid aspen using immunolocalization with LM10 and LM11 antibodies. Xylan labeling was detected earliest in fibers at the cell corner of the S? layer, and then later in vessels and ray cells respectively. Fibers showed a heterogeneous labeling pattern in the mature cell wall with stronger labeling of low substituted xylans (lsAcGXs) in the outer than inner cell wall. In contrast, vessels showed uniform labeling in the mature cell wall with stronger labeling of lsAcGXs than fibers. Xylan labeling in ray cells was detected much later than that in fibers and vessels, but was also detected at the beginning of secondary cell wall formation as in fibers and vessels with uniform labeling in the cell wall regardless of developmental stage. Interestingly, pit membranes including fiber-, vessel- and ray-vessel pits showed strong labeling of highly substituted xylans (hsAcGXs) during differentiation, although this labeling gradually disappeared during pit maturation. Together our observations indicate that there are temporal and spatial variations of xylan deposition and chemical structure of xylans between cells in aspen xylem. Differences in xylan localization between aspen (hardwood) and cedar (softwood) are also discussed. 相似文献

Although poplar is widely used for genomic and biotechnological manipulations of wood, the cellular basis of wood development in poplar has not been accurately documented at an ultrastructural level. Developing secondary xylem cells from hybrid poplar (Populus deltoides × P. trichocarpa), which were actively making secondary cell walls, were preserved with high pressure freezing/freeze substitution for light and electron microscopy. The distribution of xylans and mannans in the different cell types of developing secondary xylem were detected with immunofiuorescence and immuno-gold labeling. While xylans, detected with the monoclonal antibody LM10, had a general distribution across the secondary xylem, mannans were enriched in the S2 secondary cell wall layer of fibers. To observe the cellular structures associated with secondary wall production, cryofixed fibers were examined with transmission electron microscopy during differentiation. There were abundant cortical microtubules and endomembrane activity in cells during the intense phase of secondary cell wall synthesis. Microtubule-associated small membrane compartments were commonly observed, as well as Golgi and secretory vesicles fusing with the plasma membrane. 相似文献

Three novel rat monoclonal antibodies, designated LM18, LM19 and LM20, were isolated from screens for binding to Arabidopsis thaliana seed coat mucilage. The binding of these antibodies to mucilage subject to enzyme and high pH pre-treatments and to a series of model homogalacturonan-rich pectins with defined levels of methyl-esterification indicated their recognition of pectic homogalacturonan epitopes. The binding capacities of these monoclonal antibodies to cell walls in sections of tobacco stem pith parenchyma were also differentially sensitive to equivalent treatments with high pH buffers and pectate lyase. The epitopes bound by these antibodies display some similarities and some differences to the epitopes recognized by the previously isolated and established pectic homogalacturonan probes JIM5 and JIM7. 相似文献

Immunolabeling can be used to locate plant cell wall carbohydrates or other components to specific cell types or to specific regions of the wall. Some antibodies against xylans exist; however, many partly react with the xylan backbone and thus provide limited information on the type of substituents present in various xylans. We have produced a monoclonal antibody which specifically recognizes glucopyranosyl uronic acid (GlcA), or its 4-O-methyl ether (meGlcA), substituents in xylan and has no cross-reactivity with linear or arabinofuranosyl-substituted xylans. The UX1 antibody binds most strongly to (me)GlcA substitutions at the non-reducing ends of xylan chains, but has a low cross-reactivity with internal substitutions as well, at least on oligosaccharides. The antibody labeled plant cell walls from both mono- and dicotyledons, but in most tissues an alkaline pretreatment was needed for antibody binding. The treatment removed acetyl groups from xylan, indicating that the vicinity of glucuronic acid substituents is also acetylated. The novel labeling patterns observed in the xylem of tree species suggested that differences within the cell wall exist both in acetylation degree and in glucuronic acid content. 相似文献

Rhizosheaths function in plant?soil interactions, and are proposed to form due to a mix of soil particle entanglement in root hairs and the action of adhesive root exudates. The soil‐binding factors released into rhizospheres to form rhizosheaths have not been characterised. Analysis of the high‐molecular‐weight (HMW) root exudates of both wheat and maize plants indicate the presence of complex, highly branched polysaccharide components with a wide range of galactosyl, glucosyl and mannosyl linkages that do not directly reflect cereal root cell wall polysaccharide structures. Periodate oxidation indicates that it is the carbohydrate components of the HMW exudates that have soil‐binding properties. The root exudates contain xyloglucan (LM25), heteroxylan (LM11/LM27) and arabinogalactan‐protein (LM2) epitopes, and sandwich‐ELISA evidence indicates that, in wheat particularly, these can be interlinked in multi‐polysaccharide complexes. Using wheat as a model, exudate‐binding monoclonal antibodies have enabled the tracking of polysaccharide release along root axes of young seedlings, and their presence at root hair surfaces and in rhizosheaths. The observations indicate that specific root exudate polysaccharides, distinct from cell wall polysaccharides, are adhesive factors secreted by root axes, and that they contribute to the formation and stabilisation of cereal rhizosheaths. 相似文献

Summary
Asclepias speciosa Torr, has latex-containing cells known as nonarticulated laticifers. In stem sections of this species, we have analyzed the
cell walls of nonarticulated laticifers and surrounding cells with various stains, lectins, and monoclonal antibodies. These
analyses revealed that laticifer walls are rich in (1→4) β-D-glucans and pectin polymers. Immunolocalization of pectic epitopes
with the antihomogalacturonan antibodies JIM5 and JIM7 produced distinct labeling patterns. JIM7 labeled all cells including
laticifers, while JIM5 only labeled mature epidermal cells and xylem elements. Two antibodies, LM5 and LM6, which recognize
rhamnogalacturonan I epitopes distinctly labeled laticifer walls. LM6, which binds to a (l→5) α-arabinan epitope, labeled
laticifer walls more intensely than walls of other cells. LM5, which recognizes a (1→4) β-D-galac-tan epitope, did not label
laticifer segments at the shoot apex but labeled more mature portions of laticifers. Also the LM5 antibody did not label cells
at the shoot apical meristem, but as cells grew and matured the LM5 epitope was expressed in all cells. LM2, a monoclonal
antibody that binds to β-D-glucuronic acid residues in arabinogalactan proteins, did not label laticifers but specifically
labeled sieve tubes. Sieve tubes were also specifically labeled by Ricinus communis agglutinin, a lectin that binds to terminal β-D-galactosyl residues. Taken together, the analyses conducted showed that laticifer
walls have distinctive cytochemical properties and that these properties change along the length of laticifers. In addition,
this study revealed differences in the expression of pectin and arabinogalactan protein epitopes during shoot development
or among different cell types. 相似文献

Three monoclonal antibodies (LM5, F2 and F39) to the fast class of myosin heavy chain (MHC) were used to study the effect of denervation on the differentiation of muscle cell types in some rat skeletal muscles. Antibody LM5 in immunocytochemical investigations did not stain any myotubes during early fetal development but presumptive fast muscle cells started to stain during later fetal development. Unlike antibody LM5, antibodies F2 and F39 stained all myotubes during fetal development. The suppression of fast myosin heavy chains recognised in presumptive slow muscle cells was observed within 1-2 days after birth with antibody F39 but not until 10-14 days after birth with antibody F2. The emergence of subsets of fast muscle fibre types in rat extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and tibialis anteri (TA) detectable by F39 and F2 antibodies was not observed until 2-3 weeks after birth. Denervation of developing muscles led to marked changes in the expression of myosins identified by these antibodies. 相似文献

Xylan has a main chain consisting of β-1,4-linked xylose residues with diverse substituents. Endoxylanases cleave the xylan chain at cleavage sites determined by the substitution pattern and thus give different oligosaccharide product patterns. Most known endoxylanases belong to glycoside hydrolase (GH) families 10 and 11. These enzymes work well on unsubstituted xylan but accept substituents in certain subsites. The GH11 enzymes are more restricted by substituents, but on the other hand, they are normally more active than the GH10 enzymes on insoluble substrates, because of their smaller size. GH5 endoxylanases accept arabinose substituents in several subsites and require it in the − 1 subsite. This specificity makes the GH5 endoxylanases very useful for degradation of highly arabinose-substituted xylans and for the selective production of arabinoxylooligosaccharides, without formation of unsubstituted xylooligosaccharides. The GH30 endoxylanases have a related type of specificity in that they require a uronic acid substituent in the − 2 subsite, which makes them very useful for the production of uronic acid substituted oligosaccharides. The ability of dietary xylooligosaccharides to function as prebiotics in humans is governed by their substitution patterns. Endoxylanases are thus excellent tools to tailor prebiotic oligosaccharides to stimulate various types of intestinal bacteria and to cause fermentation in different parts of the gastrointestinal tract. Continuously increasing knowledge on the function of the gut microbiota and discoveries of novel endoxylanases increase the possibilities to achieve health-promoting effects. 相似文献

The ability of Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens and other ruminal bacteria (6 species, 18 strains) to ferment a crude xylan from wheat straw or to ferment xylans from larchwood or oat spelts was studied. Liquid cultures were monitored for carbohydrate utilization, cell growth (protein), and fermentation acid production. B. fibrisolvens 49, H17c, AcTF2, and D1 grew almost as well on one or more of the xylans as they did on cellobiose-maltose. B. fibrisolvens 12, R28, A38, X10C34, ARD22a, and X6C61 exhibited moderate growth on xylans. Partial fermentation of xylans was observed with Bacteroides ruminicola B14, Bacteroides succinogenes S85, Ruminococcus albus 7, Ruminococcus flavefaciens C94 and FD1, and Succinivibrio dextrinosolvens 22B. All xylans tested appeared to have a small fraction of carbohydrate that supported low levels of growth of nonxylanolytic strains such as Selenomonas ruminantium HD4. Compared to growth on hexoses, the same array of fermentation acids was produced upon growth on xylans for most strains; however, reduced lactate levels were observed for B. fibrisolvens 49 and Selenomonas ruminantium HD4. Measurements of enzyme activities of B. fibrisolvens AcTF2, 49, H17c, and D1 indicated that the xylobiase activities were cell associated and that the xylanase activities were predominantly associated with the culture fluid. The pattern of expression of these enzymes varied both between strains and between the carbon sources on which the strains were grown. 相似文献

To develop antibody probes for the neutral side chains of pectins, antisera were generated to a pectic galactan isolated from tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) pericarp cell walls and to a (1[->]4)-[beta]-galactotetraose-bovine serum albumin neoglycoprotein. The use of these two antisera in immunochemical assays and immunolocalization studies indicated that they had very similar specificities. A monoclonal antibody (LM5) was isolated and characterized subsequent to immunization with the neoglycoprotein. Hapten inhibition studies revealed that the antibody specifically recognized more than three contiguous units of (1[->]4)-[beta]-galactosyl residues. The antigalactan antibody was used to immunolocalize the galactan side chains of pectin in tomato fruit pericarp and tomato petiole cell walls. Although the LM5 epitope occurs in most cell walls of the tomato fruit, it was absent from both the locular gel and the epidermal and subepidermal cells. Furthermore, in contrast to other anti-pectin antibodies, LM5 did not label the cell wall thickenings of tomato petiole collenchyma. 相似文献

Sandwich enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) were developed to detect Escherichia coli cytotoxins. Wells were coated with monoclonal antibodies from hybridomas 13C4 and (or) 11E10, and biotin conjugates of these antibodies were used for detecting verotoxin 1 and Shiga-like toxin II, respectively. Sensitivities were about 100 and 200 cytotoxic doses, respectively. Verotoxin 2 was detected by ELISA with monoclonal antibody 11E10, but at a sensitivity of only about 4000 cytotoxic doses. ELISA results of polymyxin-treated cell extracts from cultures of 67 E. coli strains were in agreement with Vero cell assay as regards the presence and type of toxin. 相似文献

Background and AimsIn flax hypocotyls, cadmium-induced reorientation of growth coincides with marked changes in homogalacturonan (HGA) epitopes that were recognized by JIM7 and JIM5 antibodies in the external tangential wall of the epidermis. In the present study, LM7 and 2F4 monoclonal antibodies were used, in addition to JIM5 and JIM7, to extend the investigation on the methyl-esterification pattern of HGA within various domains of the cortical tissues, including the cortical parenchyma where cell cohesion is crucial. MethodsThe PATAg (periodic acid thiocarbohydrazide–silver proteinate) test was applied to ultrathin sections so that the polysaccharides could be visualized and the ultrastructure studied. The monoclonal LM7, JIM5 and JIM7 antibodies that recognize differently methyl-esterified HGA were used. The monoclonal 2F4 antibody that is specific to a particular polygalacturonic acid conformation induced by a given calcium to sodium ratio was also applied. After immunogold labelling, the grids were stained with uranyl-acetate, the samples were observed using a transmission electron microscope and the gold particles were counted. Key ResultsIn the presence of cadmium, the increase of LM7 labelling in external tangential wall of the epidermis, together with a decrease of JIM7 labelling, suggested a specific role for randomly partially de-esterified HGA to counteract the radial swelling stress. Enhanced JIM5 and 2F4 labelling in the junctions of the inner tissues indicated that the presence of blockwise de-esterified HGA might oppose cell separation. ConclusionsThe response of the hypocotyl to cadmium stress was to adapt the structure of the wall of cortical tissues by differently modulating the methyl-esterification pattern of HGA in various domains. 相似文献

Background and AimsInnovations in vegetative and reproductive characters were key factors in the evolutionary history of land plants and most of these transformations, including dramatic changes in life cycle structure and strategy, necessarily involved cell-wall modifications. To provide more insight into the role of cell walls in effecting changes in plant structure and function, and in particular their role in the generation of vascularization, an antibody-based approach was implemented to compare the presence and distribution of cell-wall glycan epitopes between (free-living) gametophytes and sporophytes of Ceratopteris richardii ‘C-Fern’, a widely used model system for ferns. MethodsMicroarrays of sequential diamino-cyclohexane-tetraacetic acid (CDTA) and NaOH extractions of gametophytes, spores and different organs of ‘C-Fern’ sporophytes were probed with glycan-directed monoclonal antibodies. The same probes were employed to investigate the tissue- and cell-specific distribution of glycan epitopes. Key ResultsWhile monoclonal antibodies against pectic homogalacturonan, mannan and xyloglucan widely labelled gametophytic and sporophytic tissues, xylans were only detected in secondary cell walls of the sporophyte. The LM5 pectic galactan epitope was restricted to sporophytic phloem tissue. Rhizoids and root hairs showed similarities in arabinogalactan protein (AGP) and xyloglucan epitope distribution patterns. ConclusionsThe differences and similarities in glycan cell-wall composition between ‘C-Fern’ gametophytes and sporophytes indicate that the molecular design of cell walls reflects functional specialization rather than genetic origin. Glycan epitopes that were not detected in gametophytes were associated with cell walls of specialized tissues in the sporophyte. 相似文献
