Induction of Abscisic Acid-Regulated Gene Expression by Diacylglycerol Pyrophosphate Involves Ca and Anion Currents in Arabidopsis Suspension Cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
Diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP) was recently shown to be a possible intermediate in abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. In this study, reverse transcription-PCR of ABA up-regulated genes was used to evaluate the ability of DGPP to trigger gene expression in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) suspension cells. At5g06760, LTI30, RD29A, and RAB18 were stimulated by ABA and also specifically expressed in DGPP-treated cells. Use of the Ca channel blockers fluspirilene and pimozide and the Ca chelator EGTA showed that Ca was required for ABA induction of DGPP formation. In addition, Ca participated in DGPP induction of gene expression via stimulation of anion currents. Hence, a sequence of Ca, DGPP, and anion currents, constituting a core of early ABA-signaling events necessary for gene expression, is proposed.

Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a key role in the control of stomatal aperture by regulating ion channel activities and water exchanges across the plasma membrane of guard cells. Changes in cytoplasmic calcium content and activation of anion and outward-rectifying K(+) channels are among the earliest cellular responses to ABA in guard cells. In Arabidopsis suspension cells, we have demonstrated that ...
متن کاملPlasma membrane depolarization induced by abscisic acid in Arabidopsis suspension cells involves reduction of proton pumping in addition to anion channel activation, which are both Ca2+ dependent.
In Arabidopsis suspension cells a rapid plasma membrane depolarization is triggered by abscisic acid (ABA). Activation of anion channels was shown to be a component leading to this ABA-induced plasma membrane depolarization. Using experiments employing combined voltage clamping, continuous measurement of extracellular pH, we examined whether plasma membrane H(+)-ATPases could also be involved i...
متن کاملA plasma membrane receptor kinase, GHR1, mediates abscisic acid- and hydrogen peroxide-regulated stomatal movement in Arabidopsis.
The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) regulates stomatal movement under drought stress, and this regulation requires hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). We isolated GUARD CELL HYDROGEN PEROXIDE-RESISTANT1 (GHR1), which encodes a receptor-like kinase localized on the plasma membrane in Arabidopsis thaliana. ghr1 mutants were defective ABA and H2O2 induction of stomatal closure. Genetic analysis indicates ...

Background: Embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells derived from germ cell tumors are valuable tools for investigating differentiation and developmental biology processes in vitro. The advantage of the reproducible and rapid expansion of these cell lines provides a useful alternative to embryos for the study of mammalian cell differentiation. During early stages of cell differentiation, the rate of tran...
