Roles of OsCKI1, a rice casein kinase I, in root development and plant hormone sensitivity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Casein kinases are critical in cell division and differentiation across species. A rice cDNA fragment encoding a putative casein kinase I (CKI) was identified via cDNA macroarray under brassinosteroid (BR) treatment, and a 1939-bp full-length cDNA, OsCKI1, was isolated and found to encode a putative 463-aa protein. RT-PCR and Northern blot analysis indicated that OsCKI1 was constitutively expressed in various rice tissues and upregulated by treatments with BR and abscisic acid (ABA). Enzymatic assay of recombinant OsCKI1 proteins expressed in Escherichia coli showed that the protein was capable of phosphorylating casein. The physiological roles of OsCKI1 were studied through antisense transgenic approaches, and homozygous transgenic plants showed abnormal root development, including fewer lateral and adventitious roots, and shortened primary roots as a result of reduced cell elongation. Treatment of wild-type plants with CKI-7, a specific inhibitor of CKI, also confirmed these functions of OsCKI1. Interestingly, in transgenic and CKI-7-treated plants, exogenously supplied IAA could restore normal root development, and measurement of free IAA content in CKI-deficient primary and adventitious roots revealed altered auxin content, indicating that OsCKI1 is involved in auxin metabolism or that it may affect auxin levels. Transgenic plants were less sensitive than control plants to ABA or BR treatment during germination, suggesting that OsCKI1 may be involved in various hormone-signaling pathways. OsCKI1-GFP fusion studies revealed the localization of OsCKI1 to the nucleus, suggesting a possible involvement in regulation of gene expression. In OsCKI1-deficient plants, differential gene expression was investigated using cDNA chip technology, and results indicated that genes related to signal transduction and hormone metabolism were indeed with altered expression. 相似文献

Molecular mechanism of adventitious root formation in rice 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Adventitious roots account for the majority of the rice root system and play an irreplaceable role in rice growth and development. Rice adventitious roots are formed by division of the innermost ground meristem cells in the central cylinder, and some lateral roots are observable in the adventitious root system. Multiple hormones have been implicated in the regulation of root development. Auxin is involved in the initiation of adventitious roots, whereas cytokinin inhibits adventitious root initiation, but promotes adventitious root elongation. Other phytohormones such as nitric oxide, ethylene, brassinosteroid, jasmonic acid and gibberellin may be also involved in regulating adventitious root initiation and development. Additionally, more than 600 root development related quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been located by QTL analysis of root traits. 相似文献

The ansamycin antibiotic geldanamycin has frequently been used as an inhibitor of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), and this agent has been widely employed as a probe to examine the interactions of Hsp90 with endothelial nitric-oxide synthase. Geldanamycin contains a quinone group, which may participate in redox cycling. When geldanamycin was exposed to the flavin-containing enzyme cytochrome P-450 reductase, both semiquinone and superoxide (O(2)(*)(-)) radicals were detected using electron spin resonance. The treatment of endothelial cells with geldanamycin resulted in a dramatic increase in O(2)(*)(-) generation, which was independent of endothelial nitric-oxide synthase, because it was not inhibited by N-nitro-l-arginine methyl ester and also occurred in vascular smooth muscle cells. Diphenylene iodinium inhibited this increase in O(2)(*)(-) by 50%, suggesting that flavin-containing enzymes are involved in geldanamycin-induced O(2)(*)(-) generation. In the absence of cells, geldanamycin directly oxidized ascorbate, consumed oxygen, and produced O(2)(*)(-). Geldanamycin decreased the bioavailable nitric oxide generated by 3,4-dihydrodiazete 1,2-dioxide in smooth muscle cells by 50%, whereas pretreatment with superoxide dismutase inhibited the effect of geldanamycin. These findings demonstrate that geldanamycin generates O(2)(*)(-), which scavenges nitric oxide, leading to loss of its bioavailability. This effect is independent of the inhibition of Hsp90 and indicates that geldanamycin cannot be used as a specific inhibitor of Hsp90. In light of these findings, the studies using geldanamycin as an inhibitor of Hsp90 should be interpreted with caution. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Aerenchyma formation is thought to be one of the important morphological adaptations to hypoxic stress. Although sponge gourd is an annual vegetable upland crop, in response to flooding the hypocotyl and newly formed adventitious roots create aerenchyma that is neither schizogenous nor lysigenous, but is produced by radial elongation of cortical cells. The aim of this study is to characterize the morphological changes in flooded tissues and the pattern of cortical aerenchyma formation, and to analyse the relative amount of aerenchyma formed. METHODS: Plants were harvested at 16 d after the flooding treatment was initiated. The root system was observed, and sections of fresh materials (hypocotyl, tap root and adventitious root) were viewed with a light or fluorescence microscope. Distributions of porosity along adventitious roots were estimated by a pycnometer method. KEY RESULTS: Under flooded conditions, a considerable part of the root system consisted of new adventitious roots which soon emerged and grew quickly over the soil surface. The outer cortical cells of these roots and those of the hypocotyl elongated radially and contributed to the development of large intercellular spaces. The elongated cortical cells of adventitious roots were clearly T-shaped, and occurred regularly in mesh-like lacunate structures. In these positions, slits were formed in the epidermis. In the roots, the enlargement of the gas space system began close to the apex in the cortical cell layers immediately beneath the epidermis. The porosity along these roots was 11-45 %. In non-flooded plants, adventitious roots were not formed and no aerenchyma developed in the hypocotyl or tap root. CONCLUSIONS: Sponge gourd aerenchyma is produced by the unique radial elongation of cells that make the expansigeny. These morphological changes seem to enhance flooding tolerance by promoting tissue gas exchange, and sponge gourd might thereby adapt to flooding stress. 相似文献

The assembly of viral RNA replication complexes on intracellular membranes represents a critical step in the life cycle of positive-strand RNA viruses. We investigated the role of the cellular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) in viral RNA replication complex assembly and function using Flock House virus (FHV), an alphanodavirus whose RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, protein A, is essential for viral RNA replication complex assembly on mitochondrial outer membranes. The Hsp90 chaperone complex transports cellular mitochondrial proteins to the outer mitochondrial membrane import receptors, and thus we hypothesized that Hsp90 may also facilitate FHV RNA replication complex assembly or function. Treatment of FHV-infected Drosophila S2 cells with the Hsp90-specific inhibitor geldanamycin or radicicol potently suppressed the production of infectious virions and the accumulation of protein A and genomic, subgenomic, and template viral RNA. In contrast, geldanamycin did not inhibit the activity of preformed FHV RNA replication complexes. Hsp90 inhibitors also suppressed viral RNA and protein A accumulation in S2 cells expressing an FHV RNA replicon. Furthermore, Hsp90 inhibition with either geldanamycin or RNAi-mediated chaperone downregulation suppressed protein A accumulation in the absence of viral RNA replication. These results identify Hsp90 as a host factor involved in FHV RNA replication and suggest that FHV uses established cellular chaperone pathways to assemble its RNA replication complexes on intracellular membranes. 相似文献

The molecular chaperone heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) is involved in multiple cellular processes including protein maturation, complex assembly and disassembly, and intracellular transport. We have recently shown that a disruption of Hsp90 activity in cultured Drosophila melanogaster cells suppresses Flock House virus (FHV) replication and the accumulation of protein A, the FHV RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. In the present study, we investigated whether the defect in FHV RNA polymerase accumulation induced by Hsp90 suppression was secondary to an effect on protein A synthesis, degradation, or intracellular membrane association. Treatment with the Hsp90-specific inhibitor geldanamycin selectively reduced FHV RNA polymerase synthesis by 80% in Drosophila S2 cells stably transfected with an inducible protein A expression plasmid. The suppressive effect of geldanamycin on protein A synthesis was not attenuated by proteasome inhibition, nor was it sensitive to changes in either the mRNA untranslated regions or protein A intracellular membrane localization. Furthermore, geldanamycin did not promote premature protein A degradation, nor did it alter the extremely rapid kinetics of protein A membrane association. These results identify a novel role for Hsp90 in facilitating viral RNA polymerase synthesis in Drosophila cells and suggest that FHV subverts normal cellular pathways to assemble functional replication complexes. 相似文献

The ability to form hyphae in the human pathogenic fungus Candida albicans is a prerequisite for virulence. It contributes to tissue infection, biofilm formation, as well as escape from phagocytes. Cell elongation triggered by human body temperature involves the essential heat shock protein Hsp90, which negatively governs a filamentation program dependent upon the Ras-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway. Tight regulation of Hsp90 function is required to ensure fast appropriate response and maintenance of a wide range of regulatory and signaling proteins. Client protein activation by Hsp90 relies on a conformational change of the chaperone, whose ATPase activity is competitively inhibited by geldanamycin. We demonstrate a novel regulatory mechanism of heat- and Hsp90-dependent induced morphogenesis, whereby the nonreducing disaccharide trehalose acts as a negative regulator of Hsp90 release. By means of a mutant strain deleted for Gpr1, the G protein-coupled receptor upstream of PKA, we demonstrate that elevated trehalose content in that strain, resulting from misregulation of enzymatic activities involved in trehalose metabolism, disrupts the filamentation program in response to heat. Addition of geldanamycin does not result in hyphal extensions at 30 °C in the gpr1Δ/gpr1Δ mutant as it does in wild type cells. In addition, validamycin, a specific inhibitor of trehalase, the trehalose-degrading enzyme, inhibits cell elongation in response to heat and geldanamycin. These results place Gpr1 as a regulator of trehalose metabolism in C. albicans and illustrate that trehalose modulates Hsp90-dependent activation of client proteins and signaling pathways leading to filamentation in the human fungal pathogen. 相似文献

Interactions between ethylene, gibberellin and abscisic acid regulate emergence and growth rate of adventitious roots in deepwater rice 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
Growth of adventitious roots is induced in deepwater rice (Oryza sativa L.) when plants become submerged. Ethylene which accumulates in flooded plant parts is responsible for root growth induction.
Gibberellin (GA) is ineffective on its own but acts in a synergistic manner together with ethylene to promote the number of
penetrating roots and the growth rate of emerged roots. Studies with the GA biosynthesis inhibitor paclobutrazol revealed
that root emergence was dependent on GA activity. Abscisic acid (ABA) acted as a competitive inhibitor of GA activity. Root
growth rate on the other hand was dependent on GA concentration and ABA acted as a potent inhibitor possibly of GA but also
of ethylene signaling. The results indicated that root emergence and elongation are distinct phases of adventitious root growth
that are regulated through different networking between ethylene, GA and ABA signaling pathways. Adventitious root emergence
must be coordinated with programmed death of epidermal cells which cover root primordia. Epidermal cell death is also controlled
by ethylene, GA and ABA albeit with cell-type specific cross-talk. Different interactions between the same hormones may be
a means to ensure proper timing of cell death and root emergence and to adjust the growth rate of emerged adventitious roots. 相似文献

G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is a serine/threonine-specific protein kinase that mediates agonist-dependent phosphorylation of numerous G protein-coupled receptors. In an effort to identify proteins that regulate GRK2 function, we searched for interacting proteins by immunoprecipitation of endogenous GRK2 from HL60 cells. Subsequent analysis by gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry revealed that GRK2 associates with heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90). GRK2 interaction with Hsp90 was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation and was effectively disrupted by geldanamycin, an Hsp90-specific inhibitor. Interestingly, geldanamycin treatment of HL60 cells decreased the expression of endogenous GRK2 in a dose- and time-dependent manner, and metabolic labeling demonstrated that geldanamycin rapidly accelerated the degradation of newly synthesized GRK2. The use of various protease inhibitors suggested that GRK2 degradation induced by geldanamycin was predominantly through the proteasome pathway. To test whether Hsp90 plays a general role in regulating GRK maturation, additional GRKs were studied by transient expression in COS-1 cells and subsequent treatment with geldanamycin. These studies demonstrate that GRK3, GRK5, and GRK6 are also stabilized by interaction with Hsp90. Taken together, our work revealed that GRK interaction with heat shock proteins plays an important role in regulating GRK maturation. 相似文献

Effect of auxins and plant oligosaccharides on root formation and elongation growth of mung bean hypocotyls 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The interaction of auxins – IAA, IBA or NAA – with galactoglucomannan oligosaccharides (GGMOs) on adventitious root formation and elongation growth of mung bean hypocotyl cuttings was studied. GGMOs induced adventitious roots in the absence of auxins; however, their effect was lower compared with IBA or NAA. On the other hand, in the presence of auxins, GGMOs inhibited adventitious root induction. Their effect depended on the concentration of oligosaccharides and the type of auxin used. The highest inhibition effect of GGMOs at a concentration of 10−8 M in the presence of IBA and NAA was observed. In the presence of IAA their inhibition was non-significant in regard to the concentration. The interaction of auxins with GGMOs resulted in the formation of adventitious roots on a shorter part of hypocotyls compared with the effect of auxins alone. However, roots were induced more extensively along the hypocotyls treated with GGMOs compared with the control. GGMOs inhibited the length of induced adventitious roots in the presence of IAA, while in combination with IBA or NAA they were ineffective. The elongation of hypocotyls induced by IAA or IBA was inhibited by GGMOs, too. However, in the presence of NAA or by endogenous growth they were without any significant effect on elongation growth. These findings suggest that GGMOs in certain concentrations might inhibit rooting and the elongation process dependant on auxin used. 相似文献

UBR1 and UBR2 are N-recognin ubiquitin ligases that function in the N-end rule degradation pathway. In yeast, the UBR1 homologue also functions by N-end rule independent means to promote degradation of misfolded proteins generated by treatment of cells with geldanamycin, a small molecule inhibitor of Hsp90. Based on these studies we examined the role of mammalian UBR1 and UBR2 in the degradation of protein kinase clients upon Hsp90 inhibition. Our findings show that protein kinase clients Akt and Cdk4 are still degraded in mouse Ubr1(-)/(-) cells treated with geldanamycin, but that their levels recover much more rapidly than is found in wild type cells. These findings correlate with increased induction of Hsp90 expression in the Ubr1(-)/(-) cells compared with wild type cells. We also observed a reduction of UBR1 protein levels in geldanamycin-treated mouse embryonic fibroblasts and human breast cancer cells, suggesting that UBR1 is an Hsp90 client. Further studies revealed a functional overlap between UBR1 and the quality control ubiquitin ligase, CHIP. Our findings show that UBR1 function is conserved in controlling the levels of Hsp90-dependent protein kinases upon geldanamycin treatment, and suggest that it plays a role in determining the sensitivity of cancer cells to the chemotherapeutic effects of Hsp90 inhibitors. 相似文献

Effect of pruning or removal of in vitro formed roots on ex vitro root regeneration and growth in micropropagated grapes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pruning or total removal of in vitro formed roots of grape (Vitis vinifera L.) plantlets at planting offered considerable
ease and time economy compared to control plantlets with intact roots. The ex vitro establishment was unaffected by the practice
with 90% or higher establishment in each treatment. When observed at 4 weeks from planting, growth was slightly affected by
root pruning and significantly by root removal. However, both these treatments showed better adventitious root regeneration
at the base compared to control plants, which showed elongation of in vitro formed roots with fewer new roots. Root pruning
and root removal treatments reduced the influence of the number of in vitro formed roots on vigour of ex vitro plants since
the number of new roots formed was independent of the roots initially present. Consequently, these plants showed more uniformity
compared to control plants. With a better root system, root pruned plants showed faster subsequent growth. Root pruning at
planting is recommended for easier handling and more uniform plants.

Hsp90 inhibitors are currently in clinical trials for cancer therapy based on their ability to promote proteasomal degradation of oncogenic protein kinases and nuclear receptors. Results from recent studies suggest that cancer cells are more sensitive to these inhibitors than cells from healthy tissues. We analyzed an immortalized cell line Ba/F3 for sensitivity to the Hsp90 inhibitor geldanamycin in the absence and presence of the oncogenic tyrosine fusion kinase NPM-ALK expressed from a retroviral vector. Our results showed that NPM-ALK expression makes Akt and Cdk4 more resistant to degradation in the presence of geldanamycin, and there was a slightly reduced amount of apoptosis. The mechanism underlying the effect of NPM-ALK on Akt stability was probed by comparison of the turnover of the kinase after translation inhibition and geldanamycin treatment. We observed that Akt was degraded more rapidly in the presence of GA than upon translation inhibition without NPM-ALK expression. This suggests that NPM-ALK protects the mature kinase. Furthermore, Akt failed to bind to the Cdc37 chaperone in cells expressing NPM-ALK, which also correlates with increased Akt stability. 相似文献

Differential effects of Hsp90 inhibition on protein kinases regulating signal transduction pathways required for myoblast differentiation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
As derivatives of the Hsp90-inhibitor and tumoricidal agent geldanamycin move into phase II clinical trials, its potential for triggering adverse effects in non-tumor cell populations requires closer examination. In this report, the effect of geldanamycin on the differentiation and survival of C2C12 myoblasts was investigated. Treatment of differentiating C2C12 myoblasts with geldanamycin blocked myogenin expression, inhibited myotubule formation, and led to the depletion of three Hsp90-dependent protein kinases, ErbB2, Fyn, and Akt, and induction of apoptosis. ErbB2 levels declined rapidly, while Fyn and Akt levels decreased at a slower rate. Geldanamycin blocked the interaction of Hsp90 and its "kinase-specific" co-chaperone Cdc37 with Fyn, indicating that Fyn is an Hsp90-dependent kinase. Pulse-chase experiments indicated that geldanamycin caused newly synthesized Akt and Fyn to be degraded rapidly, but geldanamycin had little effect on the turnover rate of mature Fyn and Akt. Curiously, total cellular Src (c-Src) protein levels and the turnover rate of newly synthesized c-Src were unaffected by geldanamycin. While, geldanamycin had no effect on the levels of the putative Hsp90 client protein MyoD expressed in C2C12 cells, geldanamycin disrupted the interaction of Cdc37 with MyoD. Thus, inhibition of Hsp90 caused C2C12 cells to become depleted of multiple signal transduction proteins whose functions are essential for myoblast differentiation, and muscle cell survival, suggesting that geldanamycin derivatives may have the prospective of adversely affecting the physiology of certain sensitive muscle cell populations in vivo. 相似文献

To determine the role of adventitious roots in supplying water to Ipomoea pes-caprae (L.) Sweet (Convolvulaceae), we examined the effects of water deficit on water uptake and the growth patterns of leaves and
shoots. After stopping the water supply from the primary root or adventitious roots, the water-uptake rate of the other root
system increased steeply within 90–100 min to a level of 90% of the pretreatment water-uptake rate of the whole plant. Thus,
the primary and adventitious roots can compensate for a decrease in the water-uptake rate of the whole plant caused by dehydration.
The continuous growth of leaves and shoots after dehydration suggests that an increase in the water-uptake rate by either
root system can support plant growth, although the growth rates of immature leaves in plants with no water supply from the
primary or adventitious roots were lower than in controls. We conclude that the water supply from adventitious roots contributes
to the survival and growth of plants, and will be important for vegetative propagation. 相似文献

Experiments with ethylene-insensitive tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) and petunia (Petunia x hybrida) plants were conducted to determine if normal or adventitious root formation is affected by ethylene insensitivity. Ethylene-insensitive Never ripe (NR) tomato plants produced more below-ground root mass but fewer above-ground adventitious roots than wild-type Pearson plants. Applied auxin (indole-3-butyric acid) increased adventitious root formation on vegetative stem cuttings of wild-type plants but had little or no effect on rooting of NR plants. Reduced adventitious root formation was also observed in ethylene-insensitive transgenic petunia plants. Applied 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid increased adventitious root formation on vegetative stem cuttings from NR and wild-type plants, but NR cuttings produced fewer adventitious roots than wild-type cuttings. These data suggest that the promotive effect of auxin on adventitious rooting is influenced by ethylene responsiveness. Seedling root growth of tomato in response to mechanical impedance was also influenced by ethylene sensitivity. Ninety-six percent of wild-type seedlings germinated and grown on sand for 7 d grew normal roots into the medium, whereas 47% of NR seedlings displayed elongated tap-roots, shortened hypocotyls, and did not penetrate the medium. These data indicate that ethylene has a critical role in various responses of roots to environmental stimuli. 相似文献

Radicicol and geldanamycin are potent inhibitors of the Hsp90 protein folding machinery, which is an emerging target for the development of cancer chemotherapeutics. However, radicicol is inactive in vivo and geldanamycin suffers from its redox-active behavior that produces toxicity unrelated to Hsp90 inhibition. It was proposed that a chimeric molecule containing the resorcinol ring of radicicol and the quinone of geldanamycin could provide an opportunity to elucidate structure-activity relationships for both natural products and serve as a starting point for the development of more potent inhibitors. Synthesis of the macrocyclic chimera named radanamycin is reported along with the biological activity exhibited by this compound in MCF-7 breast cancer cells. 相似文献

The death domain kinase, receptor interacting protein (RIP), is one of the major components of the tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) complex and plays an essential role in tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-mediated nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) activation. The activation of NF-kappaB protects cells against TNF-induced apoptosis. Heat-shock proteins (Hsps) are chaperone molecules that confer protein stability and help to restore protein native folding following heat shock and other stresses. The most abundant Hsp, Hsp90, is also involved in regulating the stability and function of a number of cell-signaling molecules. Here we report that RIP is a novel Hsp90-associated kinase and that disruption of Hsp90 function by its specific inhibitor, geldanamycin (GA), selectively causes RIP degradation and the subsequent inhibition of TNF-mediated IkappaB kinase and NF-kappaB activation. MG-132, a specific proteasome inhibitor, abrogated GA-induced degradation of RIP but failed to restore the activation of IkappaB kinase by TNF, perhaps because, in the presence of GA and MG-132, RIP accumulated in a detergent-insoluble subcellular fraction. Most importantly, the degradation of RIP sensitizes cells to TNF-induced apoptosis. These data indicate that Hsp90 plays an important role in TNF-mediated NF-kappaB activation by modulating the stability and solubility of RIP. Thus, inhibition of NF-kappaB activation by GA may be a critical component of the anti-tumor activity of this drug. 相似文献
