以唐菖蒲子球为材料,采用RT PCR技术,克隆了1个赤霉素（GA）受体基因,命名为GhGID1a（GenBank登录号为KU525107）。其开放阅读框为1 032 bp,编码343个氨基酸。序列比对结果表明,GhGID1a推导氨基酸序列与百子莲、油棕和海枣等植物的GID1的氨基酸序列相似性较高,分别为82%、78%和77%。50 mg/L GA₃对子球萌发具有促进作用,150 mg/L GA₃会抑制其萌发。实时荧光定量PCR结果显示,GA3处理对GhGID1a基因表达具有反馈抑制作用,GhGID1a表达量随着子球休眠解除而逐渐降低,推测唐菖蒲子球休眠解除可能与GA及其受体基因有关,GA及其受体基因GhGID1a可能参与了调控唐菖蒲的子球休眠与萌发过程。     

Function of Heterotrimeric G Protein in Gibberellin Signaling

The importance of plant heterotrimeric G protein functions has recently been recognized. Rice and Arabidopsis mutants of genes coding the subunits of the G proteins have been isolated and physiological studies on these mutants have suggested that plant heterotrimeric G proteins are involved in several intra-signaling pathways driven by external signals, such as gibberellin, auxin, abscisic acid, brassinolide, ethylene, light, and elicitor. The possible functions of rice heterotrimeric G proteins in gibberellin signaling are discussed here.

Enzymatic Characterization and In Vivo Function of Five Terminal Oxidases in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

The ubiquitous opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa has five aerobic terminal oxidases: bo₃-type quinol oxidase (Cyo), cyanide-insensitive oxidase (CIO), aa₃-type cytochrome c oxidase (aa₃), and two cbb₃-type cytochrome c oxidases (cbb₃-1 and cbb₃-2). These terminal oxidases are differentially regulated under various growth conditions and are thought to contribute to the survival of this microorganism in a wide variety of environmental niches. Here, we constructed multiple mutant strains of P. aeruginosa that express only one aerobic terminal oxidase to investigate the enzymatic characteristics and in vivo function of each enzyme. The K_m values of Cyo, CIO, and aa₃ for oxygen were similar and were 1 order of magnitude higher than those of cbb₃-1 and cbb₃-2, indicating that Cyo, CIO, and aa₃ are low-affinity enzymes and that cbb₃-1 and cbb₃-2 are high-affinity enzymes. Although cbb₃-1 and cbb₃-2 exhibited different expression patterns in response to oxygen concentration, they had similar K_m values for oxygen. Both cbb₃-1 and cbb₃-2 utilized cytochrome c₄ as the main electron donor under normal growth conditions. The electron transport chains terminated by cbb₃-1 and cbb₃-2 generate a proton gradient across the cell membrane with similar efficiencies. The electron transport chain of aa₃ had the highest proton translocation efficiency, whereas that of CIO had the lowest efficiency. The enzymatic properties of the terminal oxidases reported here are partially in agreement with their regulatory patterns and may explain the environmental adaptability and versatility of P. aeruginosa.

苹果一个锌指蛋白基因的cDNA克隆及其表达特性分析(英文)

A cDNA library was created from stem apex tissue from Jonathan apples (Malus domestica Borkh.), harvested in June to August, during which the plant transitions from vegetative growth to reproductive growth. From this library, we isolated an expressed sequence tag (EST) sequence containing a zinc finger motif, using this sequence, a 779 bp cDNA fragment was obtained by using 5‘ RACE, and a final full-length cDNA encoding an apple zinc finger protein (named MdZF1; GenBank accession number AB116545) was obtained by further PCR. This zinc finger motif of MdZF1 has high homology with INOETERMINATE1 (ID1) gene from maize which seemed to be involved in the transition to flowering. Northern blot and RT-PCR analyses showed that the MdZF1 expressed in the root, stem, leaves, shoot apex and floral organs of the apple, with expression levels higher in root, stem, leaves and floral shoot apex than that in floral organs (sepals, petals, stamens and pistils). Genomic Southern analysis showed that there was a single copy gene in apple genome.

Altered Expression of SPINDLY Affects Gibberellin Response and Plant Development

Gibberellins (GAs) are plant hormones with diverse roles in plant growth and development. SPINDLY (SPY) is one of several genes identified in Arabidopsis that are involved in GA response and it is thought to encode an O-GlcNAc transferase. Genetic analysis suggests that SPY negatively regulates GA response. To test the hypothesis that SPY acts specifically as a negatively acting component of GA signal transduction, spy mutants and plants containing a 35S:SPY construct have been examined. A detailed investigation of the spy mutant phenotype suggests that SPY may play a role in plant development beyond its role in GA signaling. Consistent with this suggestion, the analysis of spy er plants suggests that the ERECTA (ER) gene, which has not been implicated as having a role in GA signaling, appears to enhance the non-GA spy mutant phenotypes. Arabidopsis plants containing a 35S:SPY construct possess reduced GA response at seed germination, but also possess phenotypes consistent with increased GA response, although not identical to spy mutants, during later vegetative and reproductive development. Based on these results, the hypothesis that SPY is specific for GA signaling is rejected. Instead, it is proposed that SPY is a negative regulator of GA response that has additional roles in plant development.
