Light-dependent expression of protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase gene in the liverwort, Marchantia paleacea var. diptera.

چکیده
A cDNA encoding the NADPH:protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (EC 1.6.99.1) was isolated from suspension-cultured cells of the liverwort, Marchantia paleacea var. diptera. In contrast to the situation in most higher plants, the liverwort gene was expressed in a light-dependent manner.

Photosynthetic electron transport regulates the stability of the transcript for the protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase gene in the liverwort, Marchantia paleacea var. diptera.
The transfer of Marchantia paleacea var. diptera cells to darkness caused a reversible repression in the accumulation of transcript for a gene, por, encoding the NADPH: protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase (EC 1.3.1.33). The photosynthetic inhibitor DCMU and DBMIB repressed the accumulation in light. In the presence of transcription inhibitor cordycepin, not only incubation in the dark but also a...
متن کاملGrowth Characteristics and Morphogenesis of the Liverwort Marchantia paleacea Suspension Cells
Suspension cultured cells of the liverwort Marchantia paleacea var. diptera (MpK) were investigated to clarify the relationship between morphogenesis and the mode of utilization of nitrogen sources in different media. MpK cells grew vigorously in a Murashige and Skoog's liquid medium with 4% glucose in the light condition. Thallus regeneration from cultured cells occurred in culture medium with...
متن کاملchlB Requirement for Chlorophyll Biosynthesis under Short Photoperiod in Marchantia polymorpha L.
Chlorophylls (Chls) play pivotal roles in energy absorption and transduction and also in charge separation in reaction centers in all photosynthetic organisms. In Chl biosynthesis steps, only a step for the enzymatic reduction of protochlorophyllide (Pchlide) to chlorophyllide (Chlide) is mediated by both nuclear- and chloroplast-encoded genes in land plants. Many plants encode the genes for li...

Determination of the prosthetic group and titration of sulfhydryl group of ferredoxin-NADP+ oxidoreductase (FNR) from roots of radish (Raphanus sativus var acanthiformis cv Miyashige) confirmed its similarity to leaf-FNR. Antisera directed against radish root-FNR and leaf-FNR distinguished the enzyme forms from roots and leaves of radish as well as other flowering plants. The FNR isoenzymes sho...

Phytochromes are red light (R) and far-red light (FR) receptors that play important roles in many aspects of plant growth and development. Phytochromes mainly function in the nucleus and regulate sets of genes by inhibiting negatively acting basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors named PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTORs (PIFs) in Arabidopsis thaliana Although R/FR photoreversible responses a...
