The cloning and characterization of a novel kinesin-like protein ( k inesin-like c almodulin- b inding p rotein, KCBP) from Arabidopsis and other plants has recently been described. Unlike all other known kinesin-like proteins, KCBP interacts with calmodulin in the presence of micromolar calcium. An antibody specific to KCBP was raised using a calmodulin-binding synthetic peptide that is unique to KCBP. The KCBP antibody detected a single protein of about 140 kDa in Arabidopsis and tobacco, the size predicted from cDNA sequences. In synchronized cell cultures, the amount of KCBP was abundant during M-phase and very low in interphase. To get some insight into the function of this novel motor protein, KCBP in Arabidopsis and tobacco cells was localized by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy using affinity-purified anti-KCBP antibody. The KCBP was localized to the pre-prophase band, the mitotic spindle and the phragmoplast. The association of KCBP with microtubule arrays in dividing cells suggests that this minus-end-directed microtubule motor protein is likely to be involved in the formation of these microtubule arrays and/or functions associated with these structures. 相似文献

Overexpression of an Arabidopsis peroxisomal ascorbate peroxidase gene in tobacco increases protection against oxidative stress. 总被引:15,自引:0,他引:15
The Arabidopsis gene APX3 that encodes a putative peroxisomal membrane-bound ascorbate peroxidase was expressed in transgenic tobacco plants. APX3-expressing lines had substantial levels of APX3 mRNA and protein. The H2O2 can be converted to more reactive toxic molecules, e.g. .OH, if it is not quickly removed from plant cells. The expression of APX3 in tobacco could protect leaves from oxidative stress damage caused by aminotriazole which inhibits catalase activity that is found mainly in glyoxysomes and peroxisomes and leads to accumulation of H2O2 in those organelles. However, these plants did not show increased protection from oxidative damage caused by paraquat which leads to the production of reactive oxygen species in chloroplasts. Therefore, protection provided by the expression of APX3 seems to be specific against oxidative stress originated from peroxisomes, not from chloroplasts, which is consistent with the hypothesis that APX3 is a peroxisomal membrane-bound antioxidant enzyme. 相似文献

Among the different transduction steps leading from hypoosmotic stress to oxidative burst in suspension-cultured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv Xanthi) cells, phospholipase activation was evidenced. Using thin layer chromatography and phospholipase inhibitors the involved lipase was strongly suggested to be a phospholipase A2 (EC 3.1.1.4). Fatty acids like arachidonate and linolenate stimulated the oxidative response and prevented its inhibition by a phospholipase inhibitor, confirming the physiological relevance of the phospholipase action. A production of active oxygen species by plasma membrane vesicles was demonstrated, using two different probes. The producing system characterized in vitro was NADPH-dependent, strongly depressed by iodonium diphenyl and activated by fatty acids like the oxidative response assayed in vivo. Several other anionic amphiphiles like SDS were able to mimic the activation of the oxidative response by fatty acids, both in vivo and in vitro, suggesting that negative charges may be involved in the action mode of fatty acids. Inversely, a cationic detergent was an efficient inhibitor of the hypoosmotically induced oxidative burst and the inhibition was fully reversed by SDS. The possible identification of the active oxygen synthase involved in hypoosmotic signalling with a plasma membrane-located NADPH oxidase is discussed. 相似文献

Ectopic expression of GmPAP3 alleviates oxidative damage caused by salinity and osmotic stresses 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The primary biochemical reaction of purple acid phosphatases (PAP) is to catalyze the hydrolysis of phosphate esters and anhydrides. However, the soybean GmPAP3 gene expression is induced by NaCl, osmotic, and oxidative treatments, indicating a possible role of PAP in abiotic stress responses. Confocal and electron microscopic studies demonstrated that GmPAP3 protein is mainly localized in mitochondria, a primary site for reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. When subjected to NaCl and polyethylene glycol (PEG) treatments, ectopic expression of GmPAP3 in transgenic tobacco BY-2 cells mimicked the protective effects exhibited by the antioxidant ascorbic acid: increase in the percentage of cells with active mitochondria; reduction in the percentage of dead cells; and reduced accumulation of ROS. In addition, when GmPAP3 transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings were subjected to NaCl, PEG, and paraquat (PQ) treatments, the percentage of root elongation was significantly higher than the wild type. Furthermore, PQ-induced lipid peroxidation in these transgenic seedlings was also reduced. In summary, the mitochondrial localized GmPAP3 may play a role in stress tolerance by enhancing ROS scavenging. 相似文献

In the previous paper [Kawano et al. (2000a) Plant Cell Physiol. 41: 1251], we demonstrated that addition of phenylethylamine (PEA) and benzylamine can induce an immediate and transient burst of active oxygen species (AOS) in tobacco suspension culture. Detected AOS include H2O2, superoxide anion and hydroxyl radicals. Use of several inhibitors suggested the presence of monoamine oxidase-like H2O2-generating activity in the cellular soluble fraction. It was also suggested that peroxidase(s) or copper amine oxidase(s) are involved in the extracellular superoxide production as a consequence of H2O2 production. Since more than 85% of the PEA-dependent AOS generating activity was localized in the extracellular space (extracellular fluid + cell wall), extracellularly secreted enzymes, probably peroxidases, may largely contribute to the oxidative burst induced by PEA. The PEA-induced AOS generation was also observed in the horseradish peroxidase (HRP) reaction mixture, supporting the hypothesis that peroxidases catalyze the oxidation of PEA leading to AOS generation. In addition to AOS production, we observed that PEA induced an increase in monodehydroascorbate radicals (MDA) in the cell suspension culture and in HRP reaction mixture using electron spin resonance spectroscopy and the newly invented MDA reductase-coupled method. Here we report that MDA production is an indicator of peroxidase-mediated generation of PEA radical species in tobacco suspension culture. 相似文献

Imaging of photo-oxidative stress responses in leaves 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27
High resolution digital imaging was used to identify sites of photo-oxidative stress responses in Arabidopsis leaves non-invasively, and to demonstrate the potential of using a suite of imaging techniques for the study of oxidative metabolism in planta. Tissue-specific photoinhibition of photosynthesis in individual chloroplasts in leaves was imaged by chlorophyll fluorescence microscopy. Singlet oxygen production was assessed by imaging the quenching of the fluorescence of dansyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-2,5-dihydro-1H-pyrrole (DanePy) that results from its reaction with singlet oxygen. Superoxide and hydrogen peroxide accumulation were visualized by the reduction of nitroblue tetrazolium (NBT) to formazan deposits and by polymerization with 3,3'-diaminobenzidine (DAB), respectively. Stress-induced expression of a gene involved with antioxidant metabolism was imaged from the bioluminescence from leaves of an Arabidopsis APX2-LUC transformant, which co-expresses an ascorbate peroxidase (APX2) with firefly luciferase. Singlet oxygen and superoxide production were found to be primarily located in mesophyll tissues whereas hydrogen peroxide accumulation and APX2 gene expression were primarily localized in the vascular tissues. 相似文献

Two secreted acid phosphatases (SAP1 and SAP2) were markedly up-regulated during Pi-starvation of tomato suspension cells. SAP1 and SAP2 were resolved during cation-exchange FPLC of culture media proteins from 8-day-old Pi-starved cells, and purified to homogeneity and final p-nitrophenylphosphate hydrolyzing specific activities of 246 and 940 micro mol Pi produced.min-1 mg.protein-1, respectively. SDS/PAGE, periodic acid-Schiff staining and analytical gel filtration demonstrated that SAP1 and SAP2, respectively, exist as 84 and 57 kDa glycosylated monomers. SAP1 and SAP2 are purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) as they displayed an absorption maximum at 518 and 538 nm, respectively, and were not inhibited by l-tartrate. The respective sequence of a SAP1 and SAP2 tryptic peptide was very similar to a portion of the deduced sequence of several putative Arabidopsis thaliana PAPs. CNBr peptide mapping indicated that SAP1 and SAP2 are structurally distinct. Both isozymes displayed a pH optimum of approximately pH 5.3 and were heat stable. Although they exhibited wide substrate specificities, the Vmax of SAP2 with various phosphate-esters was significantly greater than that of SAP1. SAP1 and SAP2 were activated by up to 80% by 5 mm Mg2+, and demonstrated potent competitive inhibition by molybdate, but mixed and competitive inhibition by Pi, respectively. Interestingly, both SAPs exhibited significant peroxidase activity, which was optimal at approximately pH 8.4 and insensitive to Mg2+ or molybdate. This suggests that SAP1 and SAP2 may be multifunctional proteins that operate: (a) PAPs that scavenge Pi from extracellular phosphate-esters during Pi deprivation, or (b) alkaline peroxidases that participate in the production of extracellular reactive oxygen species during the oxidative burst associated with the defense response of plants to pathogen infection. 相似文献

The Arabidopsis genome has six families of dynamin-related proteins. One of these families includes DRP2A and DRP2B. The domain structures of proteins of this family are most similar to those of the animal endocytosis protein, dynamin. In this study, the signals of GFP-tagged DRP2B were strongly detected in the cell plate of Arabidopsis root tip cells and tobacco cultured cells. Time-lapse observations of these signals during cytokinesis in tobacco cultured cells suggested that DRP2B mainly localized to the newly formed part of the cell plate, and that the localization dynamics of DRP2B was quite similar to that of DRP1A, which is an Arabidopsis dynamin-related protein that is closely related to soybean phragmoplastin. These results indicate that Arabidopsis dynamin-related proteins, DRP1A and DRP2B, from two different families, participate in membrane remodeling at a similar place in the cell plate. 相似文献

In plants, reactive oxygen species (ROS) associated with the response to pathogen attack are generated by NADPH oxidases or apoplastic peroxidases. Antisense expression of a heterologous French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) peroxidase (FBP1) cDNA in Arabidopsis thaliana was previously shown to diminish the expression of two Arabidopsis peroxidases (peroxidase 33 [PRX33] and PRX34), block the oxidative burst in response to a fungal elicitor, and cause enhanced susceptibility to a broad range of fungal and bacterial pathogens. Here we show that mature leaves of T-DNA insertion lines with diminished expression of PRX33 and PRX34 exhibit reduced ROS and callose deposition in response to microbe-associated molecular patterns (MAMPs), including the synthetic peptides Flg22 and Elf26 corresponding to bacterial flagellin and elongation factor Tu, respectively. PRX33 and PRX34 knockdown lines also exhibited diminished activation of Flg22-activated genes after Flg22 treatment. These MAMP-activated genes were also downregulated in unchallenged leaves of the peroxidase knockdown lines, suggesting that a low level of apoplastic ROS production may be required to preprime basal resistance. Finally, the PRX33 knockdown line is more susceptible to Pseudomonas syringae than wild-type plants. In aggregate, these data demonstrate that the peroxidase-dependent oxidative burst plays an important role in Arabidopsis basal resistance mediated by the recognition of MAMPs. 相似文献

The haem proteins catalase and peroxidase are stress response proteins that detoxify reactive oxygen species. In the bacterium Bradyrhizobium japonicum, expression of the gene encoding the haem biosynthesis enzyme delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (ALAD) is normally repressed by the Irr protein in iron-limited cells. Irr degrades in the presence of iron, which requires haem binding to the protein. Here, we found that ALAD levels were elevated in iron-limited cells of a catalase-deficient mutant, which corresponded with aberrantly low levels of Irr. Irr was undetectable in wild-type cells within 90 min after exposure to exogenous H2O2, but not in a haem-deficient mutant strain. In addition, Irr did not degrade in response to iron in the absence of O2. The findings indicate that reactive oxygen species promote Irr turnover mediated by haem, and are involved in iron-dependent degradation. We demonstrated Irr oxidation in vitro, which required haem, O2 and a reductant. A truncated Irr mutant unable to bind ferrous haem does not degrade in vivo, and was not oxidized in vitro. We suggest that Irr oxidation is a signal for its degradation, and that cells sense and respond to oxidative stress through Irr to regulate haem biosynthesis. 相似文献

To examine the biological role of Al-stress-induced genes, nine genes derived from Arabidopsis, tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) were expressed in Arabidopsis ecotype Landsberg. Lines containing eight of these genes were phenotypically normal and were tested in root elongation assays for their sensitivity to Al, Cd, Cu, Na, Zn, and to oxidative stresses. An Arabidopsis blue-copper-binding protein gene (AtBCB), a tobacco glutathione S-transferase gene (parB), a tobacco peroxidase gene (NtPox), and a tobacco GDP-dissociation inhibitor gene (NtGDI1) conferred a degree of resistance to Al. Two of these genes, AtBCB and parB, and a peroxidase gene from Arabidopsis (AtPox) also showed increased resistance to oxidative stress induced by diamide, while parB conferred resistance to Cu and Na. Al content of Al-treated root tips was reduced in the four Al-resistant plant lines compared with wild-type Ler-0, as judged by morin staining. All four Al-resistant lines also showed reduced staining of roots with 2',7'-dichloro fluorescein diacetate (H(2)DCFDA), an indicator of oxidative stress. We conclude that Al-induced genes can serve to protect against Al toxicity, and also provide genetic evidence for a link between Al stress and oxidative stress in plants. 相似文献

The mechanisms by which ligand-stimulated generation of reactive oxygen species in nonphagocytic cells mediate biologic effects are largely unknown. The profibrotic cytokine, transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), generates extracellular hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in contrast to intracellular reactive oxygen species production by certain mitogenic growth factors in human lung fibroblasts. To determine whether tyrosine residues in fibroblast-derived extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins may be targets of H2O2-mediated dityrosine-dependent cross-linking reactions in response to TGF-beta1, we utilized fluorophore-labeled tyramide, a structurally related phenolic compound that forms dimers with tyrosine, as a probe to detect such reactions under dynamic cell culture conditions. With this approach, a distinct pattern of fluorescent labeling that seems to target ECM proteins preferentially was observed in TGF-beta1-treated cells but not in control cells. This reaction required the presence of a heme peroxidase and was inhibited by catalase or diphenyliodonium (a flavoenzyme inhibitor), similar to the effect on TGF-beta1-induced dityrosine formation. Exogenous addition of H2O2 to control cells that do not release extracellular H2O2 produced a similar fluorescent labeling reaction. These results support the concept that, in the presence of heme peroxidases in vivo, TGF-beta1-induced H2O2 production by fibroblasts may mediate oxidative dityrosine-dependent cross-linking of ECM protein(s). This effect may be important in the pathogenesis of human fibrotic diseases characterized by overexpression/activation of TGF-beta1. 相似文献

Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Wisconsin 38) lines expressing a mutant calmodulin (VU-3) that hyperactivates NAD kinase exhibit an enhanced elicitor-stimulated
oxidative-burst reaction (S.A. Harding et al., 1997, EMBO J. 16: 1137–1144). VU-3 transgenic tobacco was used in the present
study to investigate the relationship between calmodulin signalling, the production of active oxygen species and cell death
in response to infection with an incompatible pathogen. Following P. syringae pv. syringae 61 infection, suspension cells derived from VU-3 transgenic plants exhibited a stronger oxidative burst (3- to 4-fold higher
primary and secondary burst reactions), greater media alkalinization (3-fold) and more rapid cell death (4-fold greater mortality
at 20 h post infection) than did infected control tobacco cells. Infection of leaf tissues with P. syringae pv. syringae 61 also resulted in an enhanced cell death response compared to control tobacco tissues. This cell death response of VU-3
leaf tissues, but not control leaf tissues, was further enhanced by the presence of 50 μM salicylic acid, suggesting that
this transgenic line is more sensitive to the effects of this agent. Overall, the data support the model that calmodulin signalling
pathways are involved in the plant oxidative burst and contribute to the regulation of cell death in infected plant tissues
undergoing the hypersensitive response.
