摘要:
Intercellular communication between plant cells for low molecular weight hydrophilic molecules occurs through plasmodesmata. These tubular structures are embedded in the plant cell wall in association with the plasmalemma and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Transmission electron microscopy has provided strong evidence to support the view that both the ER and plasmalemma are structurally continuous across the wall at these sites. In experiments to be described, the technique of fluorescence redistribution after photobleaching was used to examine the lateral mobility and intercellular transport capability of a number of fluorescent lipid and phospholipid analogs. These probes were shown by confocal fluorescence microscopy to partition in either the ER or plasmalemma. Results from these measurements provide evidence for cell communication between contiguous cells for probes localized predominantly in the ER. In contrast, no detectable intercellular communication was observed for probes residing exclusively in the plasmalemma. It was of particular interest to note that when 1-acyl-2-(N-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-l,3-diazole)aminoacylphosphatidylcholine was utilized as a potential reporter molecule for phospholipids in the plasmalemma, it was quickly degraded to 1-acyl-2-(N-4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole)aminoacyldiglyceride (NBD-DAG), which then appeared predominantly localized to the ER and nuclear envelope. This endogenously synthesized NBD-DAG was found to be capable of transfer between cells, as was exogenously incorporated NBD-DAG. Results from these investigations provide support for the following conclusions: (1) ER, but apparently not the plasmalemma, can form dynamic communication pathways for lipids across the cell wall between connecting plant cells; (2) the plasmodesmata appear to form a barrier for lipid diffusion through the plasmalemma; and (3) lipid signaling molecules such as diacylglycerol are capable of transfer between contiguous plant cells through the ER. These observations speak to issues of plant cell autonomy for lipid synthesis and mechanisms of intercellular signaling and communication.

摘要:
Emerging evidence suggests that individual members of the phytochrome family of photoreceptors may regulate discrete facets of plant photomorphogenesis. We report here the isolation of phytochrome A mutants of Arabidopsis using a novel screening strategy aimed at detecting seedlings with long hypocotyls in prolonged far-red light. Complementation analysis of 10 selected mutant lines showed that each represents an independent, recessive allele at a new locus, designated hy8. Immunoblot and spectrophotometric analyses of two of these lines, hy8-1 and hy8-2, showed that, whereas phytochromes B and C are expressed at wild-type levels, phytochrome A is undetectable, thus indicating that the long hypocotyl phenotype displayed by these mutants is caused by phytochrome A deficiency. A third allele, hy8-3, expresses wild-type levels of spectrally normal phytochrome A, suggesting a mutation that has resulted in loss of biological activity in an otherwise photochemically active photoreceptor molecule. Together with physiological experiments, these data provide direct evidence that endogenous phytochrome A is responsible for the "far-red high irradiance response" of etiolated seedlings, but does not play a major role in mediating responses to prolonged red or white light. Because the hy8 and the phytochrome B-deficient hy3 mutants exhibit reciprocal responsivity toward prolonged red and far-red light, respectively, the evidence indicates that phytochromes A and B have distinct photosensory roles in regulating seedling development.

摘要:
Transcripts for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, chalcone synthase, chalcone isomerase, and chitinase accumulated in common bean after infiltration with the Pseudomonas syringae pv tabaci Hrp- mutant Pt11528::Hrp1, even though a hypersensitive reaction did not occur. The temporal pattern of this transcript accumulation was similar to that seen after infiltration with wild-type P. s. tabaci Pt11528, which resulted in a hypersensitive reaction. Escherichia coli DH5[alpha], P. fluorescens Pf101, heat-killed Pt11528 cells, and Pt11528 cells treated with protein synthesis inhibitors also induced accumulation of defense transcripts but not a hypersensitive reaction. In contrast, these transcripts were not detected in plants infiltrated with water or P.s. pv phaseolicola NPS3121, a compatible pathogen that causes halo blight. Phytoalexins were produced in bean after infiltration with Pt11528, Pt11528::Hrp1, Pt11528 cells treated with neomycin, or Pf101, but not in plants infiltrated with NPS3121 or water. These results suggest that there are unique biochemical events associated with the expression of a hypersensitive reaction which are distinct from other plant defense responses such as phytoalexin biosynthesis. In addition, our results support the hypothesis that there is a general, nonspecific mechanism for the induction of defense transcripts and phytoalexins by pathogenic and saprophytic bacteria that is distinct from the more specific mechanism associated with the induction of the hypersensitive reaction.

摘要:
We have developed a model system to examine suppression of defense responses in bean by the compatible bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv phaseolicola. Previously, we have shown that there is a general mechanism for the induction of the bean defense genes phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), chalcone synthase (CHS), chalcone isomerase (CHI), and chitinase (CHT) by incompatible, compatible, and nonpathogenic bacteria. Here, we show that bean plants infiltrated with isolates of P. s. phaseolicola failed to produce transcripts for PAL, CHS, or CHI up to 120 hr after infiltration and CHT transcript accumulation was significantly delayed when compared to the incompatible P. syringae strains. Infiltration of bean plants with 108 cells per mL of P. s. phaseolicola NPS3121 8 hr prior to infiltration with an equal concentration of incompatible P. s. pv tabaci Pt11528 significantly reduced the typical profile of defense transcript accumulation when compared to plants infiltrated with Pt11528 alone. A corresponding suppression of phytoalexin accumulation was also observed. NPS3121 also suppressed PAL, CHS, CHI, and CHT transcript accumulation and phytoalexin production induced by Escherichia coli DH5[alpha] or the elicitor glutathione. Heat-killed NPS3121 cells or cells treated with protein synthesis inhibitors lost the suppressor activity. Taken together, these experiments suggest that NPS3121 has an active mechanism to suppress the accumulation of defense transcripts and phytoalexin biosynthesis in bean.

摘要:
The protein encoded by the Opaque-2 (O2) gene is a transcription factor, translated from an mRNA that possesses an unusually long 5' leader sequence containing three upstream open reading frames (uORFs). The efficiency of translation of O2 mRNA has been tested in vivo by a transient assay in which the level of activation of the b32 promoter, a natural target of O2 protein, is measured. We show that uORF-less O2 alleles possess a higher transactivation value than the wild-type allele and that the reduction in transactivation due to the uORFs is a cis-dominant effect. The data presented indicate that both uORF1 and uORF2 are involved in the reducing effect and suggest that both are likely to be translated.

摘要:
In cruciferous plants, self-pollination is prevented by the action of genes situated at the self-incompatibility locus or S-locus. The self-incompatibility reaction is associated with expression of stigma glycoproteins encoded by the S-locus glycoprotein (SLG) gene. Only a few cases of self-compatible plants derived from self-incompatible lines in the crucifer Brassica have been reported. In these cases, self-compatibility was generally ascribed to the action of single genes unlinked to the S-locus. In contrast, we report here a line of Brassica oleracea var acephala with a self-compatible phenotype linked to the S-locus. By means of both biochemical and immunochemical analyses, we showed that this self-compatible (Sc) line nonetheless possesses stigmatic SLGs (SLG-Sc) that are expressed with a similar spatial and temporal pattern to that described for the SLGs of self-incompatible Brassica plants. Moreover, the SLG-Sc products segregate with the self-compatibility phenotype in F2 progeny, suggesting that changes at the S-locus may be responsible for the occurrence of the self-compatibility character. A cDNA clone encoding the SLG-Sc product was isolated, and the deduced amino acid sequence showed this glycoprotein to be highly homologous to the pollen recessive S2 allele glycoprotein. Hence, self-compatibility in this Brassica Sc line correlates with the expression of a pollen recessive-like S allele in the stigma.
