A 2-Cys peroxiredoxin cDNA (CjPrx) was isolated and characterized from Caragana jubata, a temperate/alpine plant species of high altitude cold desert of Himalaya and Eurasia. The cDNA obtained was 1,064 bp long consisting of an open reading frame of 789 bp encoding 262 amino acids. The calculated molecular mass of the mature protein was 28.88 kDa and pI was 5.84. Deduced amino acid sequence of CjPrx shared a high degree homology with 2-CysPrx proteins from other plants. CjPrx had both the PRX_type 2-Cys domain and thioredoxin-like superfamily domains. CjPrx contained 26.72 % α-helices, 6.87 % β-turns, 20.61 % extended strands and 45.80 % random coils, and was a hydrophilic protein. Expression of CjPrx was modulated by low temperature, methyl jasmonate (MJ), salicylic acid and drought stress, but no significant change was observed in response to abscisic acid treatment. Among all the treatments, a strong up-regulation of CjPrx was observed in response to MJ treatment. 相似文献

Plants tightly control stomatal aperture in response to various environmental changes. A drought-inducible phytohormone, abscisic acid (ABA), triggers stomatal closure and ABA signaling pathway in guard cells has been well studied. Similar to ABA, methyl jasmonate (MeJA) induces stomatal closure in various plant species but MeJA signaling pathway is still far from clear. Recently we found that Arabidopsis calcium dependent protein kinase CPK6 functions as a positive regulator in guard cell MeJA signaling and provided new insights into cytosolic Ca2+-dependent MeJA signaling. Here we discuss the MeJA signaling and also signal crosstalk between MeJA and ABA pathways in guard cells.Key words: methyl jasmonate, abscisic acid, guard cell, reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide, calciumStomata, which are formed by pairs of specialized cells called guard cells, control gas exchanges and transpirational water loss. Guard cells can shrink and swell in response to various physiological stimuli, resulting in stomatal closing and opening.1,2 To optimize growth under various environmental conditions, plants have developed fine-tuned signal pathway in guard cells. Abscisic acid (ABA) is synthesized under drought stress and induces stomatal closure to reduce transpirational water loss.2 ABA signal transduction in guard cells has been widely studied. ABA induces increases of various second messengers such as cytosolic Ca2+, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and nitric oxide (NO) in guard cells. These early signal components finally evoke ion efflux through plasma membrane ion channels, resulting in reduction of guard cell turgor pressure.Jasmonates are plant hormones synthesized via the octadecanoid pathway and regulate various physiological processes in plants such as pollen maturation, tendril coiling, senescence and responses to wounding and pathogen attacks.3 Similar to ABA, jasmonates also trigger stomatal closure and the response is conserved among various plant species including Arabidopsis thaliana,4 Hordeum vulgare,5 Commelina benghalensis,6 Vicia faba,7 Nicotiana glauca,8 Paphiopedilum Supersuk9 and Paphiopedilum tonsum.9 A volatile methyl ester of jasmonic acid (JA), methy jasmonate (MeJA), has been widely used for studying jasmonate signaling pathway. To date, pharmacological and reverse genetic approaches have revealed many important signal components involved in MeJA-induced stomatal closure and suggest a signal crosstalk between MeJA and ABA in guard cells. In this review, we mainly focus on the three important second messengers, ROS, NO and cytosolic Ca2+ and discuss recent advance about MeJA signaling and signal interaction between MeJA and ABA in guard cells. 相似文献

Endoproteinase activity was analyzed in chloroplasts isolated from barley leaf segments incubated in the dark with various hormonal senescence effectors. As a control, the endoproteinase activity of the supernatant fraction obtained during chloroplast preparation was also analyzed. Measured against azocaseine as substrate, the endoproteinase activity in chloroplasts increased 18 fold during the induction of senescence. This rise in activity was inhibited by kinetin (the activity increased only 10 fold) and very strongly stimulated by abscisic acid (ABA) (117 fold) and methyl jasmonate (Me-JA) (57 fold). Although less so, the endoproteinase activity of the supernatant fraction, mainly vacuolar and with acid pH optimum, was affected in the same way by all three effectors. Among the five endoproteinases (EC) found in chloroplasts, EC2 and EC4 were induced after incubation in water. ABA increased the levels of EC2 and EC4 (5 fold), and induced the development of EC3 and EC5, while Me-JA totally inhibited EC2 and EC4, and induced the development of EC1. At least one of the endoproteinases, EC2, is synthesized in chloroplasts. Among the six endoproteinases found in the supernatant fraction (E), E1, E2, E3 and E5, which are very probably extrachloroplastic endoproteinases, are stimulated by ABA to varying degrees. However, Me-JA stimulates E1 to a greater extent and totally inhibits E3. The differential effects of ABA and Me-JA on chloroplast and supernatant fraction endoproteinases suggest different action mechanisms for both senescence promotors.Abbreviations ABA abscisic acid - DTT dithiothreitol - E supernatant fraction endoproteinase - EC chloroplast endoproteinase - Me-JA methyl jasmonate - PNP p-nitrophenol - SDS-PAGE polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis containing sodium dodecyl sulphate - TCA trichloroacetic acid 相似文献

Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) as well as abscisic acid (ABA) induces stomatal closure with their signal crosstalk. We investigated the function of a regulatory A subunit of protein phosphatase 2A, RCN1, in MeJA signaling. Both MeJA and ABA failed to induce stomatal closure in Arabidopsis rcn1 knockout mutants unlike in wild-type plants. Neither MeJA nor ABA induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and suppressed inward-rectifying potassium channel activities in rcn1 mutants but not in wild-type plants. These results suggest that RCN1 functions upstream of ROS production and downstream of the branch point of MeJA signaling and ABA signaling in Arabidopsis guard cells. 相似文献

The effects of methyl jasmonate and jasmonic acid on uptake of abscisic acid (ABA) by suspension-cultured runner-bean cells and subapical runner-bean root segments have been investigated. Increasing concentrations of methyl jasmonate inhibit ABA uptake by the cultured cells with a K
i of 22±3 M. This is not due to cytoplasmic acidification or to effects on metabolism of ABA, and is not additive with inhibition of radioactive ABA uptake by nonradioactive ABA. Uptake of indol-3-yl acetic acid (IAA) is unaffected by methyl jasmonate. The maximum effect of nonradioactive ABA in inhibiting uptake of radioactive ABA, previously shown to reflect saturation of an ABA carrier, is generally greater than the effect of maximally inhibitory concentrations of methyl jasmonate. Similar results were obtained with root segments, but longer incubation times were necessary to observe inhibitory effects of methyl jasmonate. Demethylation of methyl jasmonate to jasmonic acid does not appear to be required since similar concentrations of jasmonic acid had no observable direct effect on ABA uptake other than that attributable to cytoplasmic acidification. Histidine reagents, a proton ionophore and acidic external pH all affect in parallel the inhibition by methyl jasmonate and nonradioactive ABA of uptake of radioactive ABA by the cultured cells. There is no effect of ABA or nonradioactive methyl jasmonate on uptake of radioactive methyl jasmonate by the cultured cells. It is proposed that methyl jasmonate interacts with the ABA carrier. Various models for this interaction are discussed.Abbreviations ABA

A single-copy extensin gene (atExt1) has been isolated from Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. The deduced amino acid sequence consists of 374 amino acids which are organised into highly ordered repeating
blocks in which Ser(Pro)4 and Ser(Pro)3 motifs alternate. Two copies of the Tyr-X-Tyr-Lys motif and 13 copies of the Val-Tyr-Lys motif are present, showing that
this extensin may be highly cross-linked, possessing the capacity for both intra and inter-molecular bond formation. The gene
atExt1 is normally expressed in the root and is silent in the leaf; wounding reverses this pattern, turning on the gene in the leaf
and repressing it in the root. The promoter contains motifs which have been found to activate plant defence genes in response
to salicylic acid, abscisic acid and methyl jasmonate; when these compounds are applied to the roots, the atExt1 gene is activated in the leaf.

Interactive effects of methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid on floret opening in spikelets of Sorghum
Xiquan Gao Xiaochun Zeng Kai Xia Teruhiko Yoshihara Xie Zhou 《Plant Growth Regulation》2004,43(3):269-273
Floret opening of excised spikelets in Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench and Sorghum Sudanesis (Piper) Stapf was significantly stimulated by immersing into 2 mM methyl jasmonate (MeJA) solution. In male sterile (MS) lines of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench, floret opening was more sensitive to MeJA than that in maintainer (MT) lines. Salicylic acid (SA) could abolish the effect of MeJA on the opening of spikelets. These data indicate that MeJA plays a role in floret opening in sorghum, and that SA interacts with MeJA in regulating of this process. 相似文献

Intracellular components in methyl jasmonate (MeJA) signaling remain largely unknown, to compare those in well-understood abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. We have reported that nitric oxide (NO) is a signaling component in MeJA-induced stomatal closure, as well as ABA-induced stomatal closure in the previous study. To gain further information about the role of NO in the guard cell signaling, NO production was examined in an ABA- and MeJA-insensitive Arabidopsis mutant, rcn1. Neither MeJA nor ABA induced NO production in rcn1 guard cells. Our data suggest that NO functions downstream of the branch point of MeJA and ABA signaling in Arabidopsis guard cells.Key words: abscisic acid, Arabidopsis thaliana, guard cells, methyl jasmonate, nitric oxideStomatal pores that are formed by pairs of guard cells respond to various environmental stimuli including plant hormones. Some signal components commonly function in MeJA- and ABA-induced stomatal closing signals,1 such as cytosolic alkalization, ROS generation and cytosolic free calcium ion elevation. Recently, we demonstrated that NO functions in MeJA signaling, as well as ABA signaling in guard cells.2NO production by nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and nitrate reductase (NR) plays important roles in physiological processes in plants.3,4 It has been shown that NO functions downstream of ROS production in ABA signaling in guard cells.5 NO mediates elevation of cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]cyt), inactivation of inward-rectifying K+ channels and activation of S-type anion channels,6 which are known to be key factors in MeJA- and ABA-induced stomatal closure.2,7–9It has been reported that ROS was not induced by MeJA and ABA in the MeJA- and ABA-insensitive mutant, rcn1 in which the regulatory subunit A of protein phosphatase 2A, RCN1, is impaired.7,10 We examined NO production induced by MeJA and ABA in rcn1 guard cells (Fig. 1). NO production by MeJA and ABA was impaired in rcn1 mutant (p = 0.87 and 0.25 for MeJA and ABA, respectively) in contrast to wild type. On the other hand, the NO donor, SNP induced stomatal closure both in wild type and rcn1 mutant (data not shown). These results are consistent with our previous results, i.e., NO is involved in both MeJA- and ABA-induced stomatal closure and functions downstream of the branching point of MeJA and ABA signaling in Arabidopsis guard cells.7 Our finding implies that protein phosphatase 2A might positively regulate NO levels in guard cells (Fig. 2).Open in a separate windowFigure 1Impairment of MeJA- and ABA-induced NO production in rcn1 guard cells.

Lipoxygenase gene expression is modulated in plants by water deficit, wounding, and methyl jasmonate 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
Summary Two classes of lipoxygenase (LOX) cDNAs, designated loxA and loxB, were isolated from soybean. A third lipoxygenase cDNA, loxP1, was isolated from pea. The deduced amino acid sequences of loxA and loxB show 61–74% identity with those of soybean seed LOXs. loxA and loxB mRNAs are abundant in roots and non-growing regions of seedling hypocotyls. Lower levels of these mRNAs are found in hypocotyl growing regions. Exposure of soybean seedlings to water deficit causes a rapid increase in loxA and loxB mRNAs in the elongating hypocotyl region. Similarly, loxP1 mRNA levels increase rapidly when pea plants are wilted. loxA and loxB mRNA levels also increase in wounded soybean leaves, and these mRNAs accumulate in soybean suspension cultures treated with 20 M methyl jasmonate. These results demonstrate that LOX gene expression is modulated in response to water deficit and wounding and suggest a role for lipoxygenase in plant responses to these stresses. 相似文献

Methyl jasmonate (JA-Me) at a concentration of 0.5% in lanolin paste totally inhibited bulblets formation induced by benzyladenine
in intactMuscari bulbs. Lower concentrations of JA-Me delayed development and growth of bulblets induced by benzyladenine. It seems that methyl
jasmonate acts as a powerful inhibitor of cell division induced by cytokinin in used test. In comparison with methyl jasmonate,
abscisic acid did not show an inhibitory effect on bulblets formation induced by benzyladenine, even in a higher concentration. 相似文献

A comparative study of the effects of abscisic acid and methyl jasmonate on seedling growth of rice 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The effects of abscisic acid (ABA) and methyl jasmonate (MJ) on growth of rice seedlings were compared. The lowest tested concentration of ABA and MJ that inhibited seedling growth was found to be 4.5 and 0.9 µM, respectively. Growth inhibition by ABA is reversible, whereas that by MJ is irreversible. GA3 was found to be more effective in reversing inhibition of shoot growth by ABA than by MJ. KCl partially relieved MJ-inhibited, but not ABA-inhibited, growth of rice seedlings. The beneficial effect of K+ on growth of rice seedlings in MJ medium could not be replaced by Li+, Na+ or Cs+. MJ treatment caused a marked release of K+ into the medium. In order to understand whether cell wall-bound peroxidase activity was inversely related to rice seedling growth, effects of ABA and MJ on cell wall-bound peroxidase activity were also examined. Results indicated that both ABA and MJ increased cell wall-bound peroxidase activity in roots and shoots of rice seedlings. Although MJ (4.5 µM) was less effective in inhibiting root growth than ABA (9 µM), MJ was found to increase more cell wall-bound peroxidase activity in roots than ABA. 相似文献

The effects of methyl jasmonate (MJ) and abscisic acid (ABA) on some physiological processes of rice were compared. MJ exhibited ABA-like effects by promoting senescence of detached leaves, by inducing acid phosphatase activity of detached leaves, by inhibiting ethylene production and shoot growth of seedlings, as well as inhibiting callus formation from anthers. However, MJ and ABA had opposite effects on 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid-dependent ethylene production in detached leaves. The regeneration ability of anther-derived callus was inhibited by MJ but not by ABA. MJ but not ABA markedly induced peroxidase activity in senescing detached leaves. It is concluded that not all physiological processes of rice affected by MJ are similar to those by ABA.Abbreviations ABA

The 22 kDa Kunitz-type potato proteinase inhibitor (22 kDa KPPI) was induced in tubers. However, the 27 kDa protein, which is immunologically related to the 22 kDa KPPI, was induced in leaves by wounding, hormones, and environmental stresses. The leaf-specific 27 kDa protein was induced in leaves that were treated with exogenous abscisic acid (ABA), ethephon, methyl jasmonate (MeJA), and water deficit. These results indicate that the 27 kDa protein in leaves could function as a defense protein against mechanical damages by herbivorous animals and abiotic environmental stresses that could induce plant hormones. 相似文献

Experiments with several Arabidopsis thaliana mutants have revealed a web of interactions between hormonal signaling. Here, we show that the Arabidopsis mutant radical-induced cell death1 (rcd1), although hypersensitive to apoplastic superoxide and ozone, is more resistant to chloroplastic superoxide formation, exhibits reduced sensitivity to abscisic acid, ethylene, and methyl jasmonate, and has altered expression of several hormonally regulated genes. Furthermore, rcd1 has higher stomatal conductance than the wild type. The rcd1-1 mutation was mapped to the gene At1g32230 where it disrupts an intron splice site resulting in a truncated protein. RCD1 belongs to the (ADP-ribosyl)transferase domain-containing subfamily of the WWE protein-protein interaction domain protein family. The results suggest that RCD1 could act as an integrative node in hormonal signaling and in the regulation of several stress-responsive genes. 相似文献

This study was undertaken to investigate the effects of salicylic acid (SA) and methyl jasmonate (MeJA) on anthocyanin induction, biomass accumulation, and color value (CV) indices for both pigment content (PC) and pigment production (PP) in callus cultures of Rosa hybrida cv. Pusa Ajay. A concentration-dependent response was exhibited by cultures on SA and MeJA at different concentrations individually or in combinations to Euphorbia millii medium supplemented with 204.5 mM sucrose, 2.45 μM indole butyric acid and 2.33 μM kinetin. There was positive influence on both callus biomass and anthocyanin accumulation. Treatment with 0.5 μM MeJA was most effective in inducing anthocyanin biosynthesis in callus cultures. Anthocyanin accumulation in callus cultures was enhanced with the addition of SA and MeJA, but these did not differ significantly from control for the number of days required for pigment initiation and for color intensification. Moreover, the addition of 0.5 μM MeJA alone resulted in a higher frequency of color response (97.25 %), PC (3.48 ± 0.07 CV g?1 FW), and PP (1.56 ± 0.03 CV test tube?1) over control. In contrast, the presence of higher levels of SA (400 μM) and MeJA (5.0 μM) reduced frequency of color response, as well as levels of PC and PP. MeJA did not increase biomass accumulation but promoted frequency of color response, PC and PP. Hence, it was suggested that 0.5 μM MeJA promoted anthocyanin production in rose callus cultures. Significant correlation was found between frequency of response and each of the PC (r = 0.988) and PP (r = 0.990). Furthermore, PC and PP were also highly correlated (r = 0.998). 相似文献
