New approaches for the analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana small RNAs.

چکیده
We are interested in the study of small RNAs (sRNAs) that over-accumulate during the plant hypersensitive response (HR), a form of programmed cell death that occurs in and around the site of infection when plants are challenged by pathogens. For this purpose, we have constructed, by subtractive hybridization, a cDNA library of Arabidopsis sRNAs that are enriched during HR. Sequencing of randomly chosen clones provided evidence for the specific accumulation of several microRNAs as well as previously unidentified sRNAs. In a second approach, we have tested the possibility to hybridize labelled cDNAs derived from sRNAs to a DNA tiling array. We could reproducibly hybridize a custom-made tiling array covering Arabidopsis chromosome 4, with small cDNAs as targets. Furthermore, we have found that the distribution of hybridized fragments with sRNAs extracted from control leaves is in good agreement with the abundance of Arabidopsis sRNAs that correspond to this chromosome as determined by massive parallel sequence signature (MPSS).

Arabidopsis thaliana is a suitable model plant for genetic and molecular biology studies in higher plants. However, its hydroponic culture for biochemical and physiological studies is a challenge due to small size, capillary roots and little biomass at maturity. Several cultural systems have been suggested for Arabidopsis thaliana hydroponic culture, each having special advantages and disadvant...

متن کاملAnalysis of SFL1 and SFL2 Promoter Region in Arabidipsis thaliana using Gateway Cloning System
SFL1 and SFl2 (SETH Four Like) genes are two members of SETH4 gene family in Arabidopsis thaliana expressed in saprophytic tissues. In this study, expression of SFL1 and SFL2 genes were studied using Gateway Cloning Technology. Primers were designed for PCR amplification of promoter region of SFL1 (900 bp) and SFL2 (930 bp) genes having attB1 recombination sites using Kod Hi Fi DNA polymerase e...
متن کاملFunctional analysis of glycin rich- RNA binding protein, a suppressor of trehalose-6-phosphate mediating growth arrest in Arabidopsis thaliana
Metabolism of the alpha-1,1 glucose disaccharide, trehalose, is indispensable in plants. In the Murashigeand Skoog (MS) medium, trehalose inhibits plant growth and allocation of carbon to roots. A suppressorof trehalose-6-phosphate (T6P) mediated growth arrest, GR-RBP2, is characterized in more detail.Phylogenetic analysis revealed that GR-RBP2 is a protein of likely prokaryot...

SETH4 coding sequence with 2013 bp is a member of gene family expressed in gametophytic tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana. This fragment was PCR amplified using Kod Hi Fi DNA polymerase enzyme. This fragment was cloned into pGBKT7 bate vector and transformed E. coli DH5? cells containing vector were selected on LB medium containing Kanamycin. Finally, pGBKT7-SETH4 bate was transformed into yeast ...
متن کاملDifferential Expression of Arabidopsis thaliana Acid Phosphatases in Response to Abiotic Stresses
The objective of this research is to identify Arabidopsis thaliana genes encoding acid phosphatases induced by phosphate starvation. Multiple alignments of eukaryotic acid phosphatase amino acid sequences led to the classification of these proteins into four groups including purple acid phosphatases (PAPs). Specific primers were degenerated and designed based on conserved sequences of PAPs isol...
