چکیده

Cold temperatures trigger the ICE1-CBF-COR transcriptional cascade in plants, which reprograms gene expression to increase freezing tolerance. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Ding et al. (2015) report that cold stress activates the protein kinase OST1 to phosphorylate and thereby stabilize and stimulate ICE1. This enhances plant tolerance to freezing temperatures.

ICE1 Ser403 is necessary for protein stabilization and regulation of cold signaling and tolerance.

ICE1, a MYC-type transcription factor, has an important role in the induction of CBF3/DREB1A for regulation of cold signaling and tolerance. Here we reveal that serine 403 of ICE1 is involved in regulating the transactivation and stability of the ICE1 protein. Substitution of serine 403 by alanine enhanced the transactivational activity of ICE1 in Arabidopsis protoplasts. Over-expression of ICE...

Gene regulation during cold acclimation in plants

doi: 10.1111/j.1399-3054.2005.00596.x Cold acclimation involves precise signaling and regulation of the transcriptome. The plasma membrane may be the primary cold-stress sensor, and FRY1/HOS2 inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphatase regulates cytosolic inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate levels, which in turn control cytosolic Ca2þ signatures and cold acclimation. Cold-induced reactive oxygen species may a...

A R2R3 type MYB transcription factor is involved in the cold regulation of CBF genes and in acquired freezing tolerance.

Cold temperatures trigger the expression of the CBF family of transcription factors, which in turn activate many downstream genes that confer freezing tolerance to plants. It has been shown previously that the cold regulation of CBF3 involves an upstream bHLH-type transcription factor, ICE1. ICE1 binds to the Myc recognition sequences in the CBF3 promoter. Apart from Myc recognition sequences, ...

MAP Kinase Cascades Regulate the Cold Response by Modulating ICE1 Protein Stability.

Mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades are important signaling modules that convert environmental stimuli into cellular responses. We show that MPK3, MPK4, and MPK6 are rapidly activated after cold treatment. The mpk3 and mpk6 mutants display increased expression of CBF genes and enhanced freezing tolerance, whereas constitutive activation of the MKK4/5-MPK3/6 cascade in plants causes reduce...

ICE1: a regulator of cold-induced transcriptome and freezing tolerance in Arabidopsis.

Cold temperatures trigger the expression of the CBF family of transcription factors, which in turn activate many downstream genes that confer chilling and freezing tolerance to plants. We report here the identification of ICE1 (inducer of CBF expression 1), an upstream transcription factor that regulates the transcription of CBF genes in the cold. An Arabidopsis ice1 mutant was isolated in a sc...
