Altered Gene Expression during Auxin-Induced Root Development from Excised Mung Bean Seedlings.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Changes in the pattern of protein synthesis and in the translatable mRNA population have been examined during auxin-induced root development from excised mung bean seedlings. Several proteins, predominantly of low molecular weight and high pI, as shown by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, are synthesized specifically by auxin-treated tissue. These auxin-induced proteins appear between 6 and 12 hours of auxin treatment, reach a maximum at 24 hours, and decline at 48 hours. Untreated seedlings (placed in Hoagland solution), known to produce small number of roots at the cut end probably due to endogeneous auxin accumulated at the cut end through basipetal transport, show low level synthesis of auxin-specific proteins. Antiauxin treatment that completely inhibits auxin-induced rooting also prevents the appearance of auxin-induced proteins. The induction of a group of three to four proteins appears to be specific to antiauxin treatment. In vitro translation of mRNA from auxin-treated tissue, but not of mRNA from antiauxin-treated tissue, yields several polypeptides of low molecular weight and high pI. Since the auxin-induced proteins precede root development and are synthesized transitorily, it is likely that they play some regulatory role during the initiation of root development. The result show that auxin-induced root formation involves altered gene expression.

Phytochrome-mediated bioelectric potentials in mung bean seedlings.
Excised root tips from dark-grown mung bean seedlings (Phaseolus aureus) that adhere to a negatively charged glass surface when irradiated with red light and release when irradiated by far-red light develop a positive bioelectric potential (about 1.0 millivolt) at the tip in red light and a negative bioelectric potential in far-red light. The sign of the bioelectric potential was repeatedly pho...
متن کاملCyclic GMP is involved in auxin signalling during Arabidopsis root growth and development
The second messenger cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) plays an important role in plant development and responses to stress. Recent studies indicated that cGMP is a secondary signal generated in response to auxin stimulation. cGMP also mediates auxin-induced adventitious root formation in mung bean and gravitropic bending in soybean. Nonetheless, the mechanism of the participation of ...
متن کاملBoron-induced Bioelectric Field Change in Mung Bean Hypocotyl.
Low concentrations of boron were found to affect the bioelectric field potentials of hypocotyls excised from 4-day-old mung bean (Phaseolus aureus cv. Oklahoma 612) seedlings grown in darkness and irradiated with red light. The significance of this effect is discussed in relation to the possible role of boron in some membrane function.

متن کاملMechanism of a Synergistic Effect of Kinetin on Auxin-induced Ethylene Production: Suppression of Auxin Conjugation.
In hypocotyl segments of mung bean (Phaseolus mungo L.) seedlings, exogenously supplied indoleacetic acid was rapidly conjugated mainly into indoleacetylaspartic acid, which was inactive in inducing ethylene production. Kinetin is known to stimulate indoleacetic acid-induced ethylene production. The mechanism of kinetin action on indoleacetic acid-induced ethylene production by hypocotyl segmen...
