The phytohormones abscisic acid (ABA) and ethylene are known to play multiple roles in plant development stress responses. Ethylene biosynthesis is affected by several factors including drought, cold the phytohormone auxin, although role of ABA unclear. In this work ABA-responsive mutants were screened a bZIP transcription factor HY5 was identified as negative regulator via modulation expression genes ACS2 ACS5. Members response (ERF) family transcriptional repressors Arabidopsis have been...
Abstract Light regulates ascorbic acid (AsA) synthesis, which increases in the light, presumably reflecting a need for antioxidants to detoxify reactive molecules produced during photosynthesis. Here, we examine this regulation Arabidopsis thaliana and find that alterations protein levels of AsA biosynthetic enzyme GDP-Man pyrophosphorylase (VTC1) are associated with changes contents light darkness. To regulatory factors involved identified VTC1-interacting proteins by yeast two-hybrid...
In the dark, etiolated seedlings display a long hypocotyl, growth of which is rapidly inhibited when are exposed to light. contrast, phytohormone ethylene prevents hypocotyl elongation in dark but enhances its However, mechanism by light and signalling oppositely affect this process at protein level unclear. Here, we report that movement CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENESIS 1 (COP1) nucleus where it mediates degradation LONG HYPOCOTYL 5 (HY5), contributing Our results indicate HY5 required for...
During plant growth and development, ethylene abscisic acid (ABA) play important roles exert synergistic or antagonistic effects on various biological processes, but the detailed mechanism underlying interaction of two phytohormones, especially in regulation accumulation reactive oxygen species (ROS), is largely unclear. Here, we report that inhibits ABA promotes ROS Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seedlings. Furthermore, changes biosynthesis ascorbic (AsA) act as a key factor integrating...
Seed germination, a critical stage initiating the life cycle of plant, is severely affected by salt stress. However, underlying mechanism inhibition seed germination (SSG) unclear. Here, we report that Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENESIS1 (COP1) counteracts SSG Genetic assays provide evidence in loss function COP1 mutant was stronger than this wild type. A GUS-COP1 fusion constitutively localized to nucleus radicle cells. Salt treatment caused be retained...
Abstract Background Abscisic acid (ABA) plays an important role in plant abiotic stress responses, and ABA INSENSITIVE 4 (ABI4) is a pivotal transcription factor the signaling pathway. In Arabidopsis , ABI4 negatively regulates salt tolerance; however, mechanism through which tolerance poorly understood. Our previous study showed that directly binds to promoter of VITAMIN C DEFECTIVE 2 ( VTC2 ) gene, inhibiting ascorbic (AsA) biosynthesis. Results present study, we found treatment with...
Abstract Background Ribosomal RNA processing protein 15 (RRP15) has been found to regulate the progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Nevertheless, extent which it contributes spread HCC cells remains uncertain. Thus, objective this research was assess biological function RRP15 in migration HCC. Methods The expression tissue microarray (TMA), tumor tissues and cell lines were determined. In vitro, effects knockdown on migration, invasion adhesion ability assessed by wound healing...
Abstract Copine proteins are highly conserved and ubiquitously found in eukaryotes, their indispensable roles different species were proposed. However, exact function remains unclear. The phytohormone brassinosteroids (BRs) play vital plant growth, development environmental responses. A key event effective BR signaling is the formation of functional BRI1-SERK receptor complex subsequent transphosphorylation upon ligand binding. Here, we demonstrate that BONZAI (BON) proteins, which plasma...
Abstract Due to the numerous water systems in southwestern region of China, oil pipelines usually need cross rivers. Underwater are exposed long-term erosion from riverbed sediment, strong river erosion, and corrosive environments, facing extremely high leakage risks. This experiment adopts an indoor tank test simulates underwater with circular organic glass tubes. Three different flow conditions set up, namely 14L/s, 25L/s, 39L/s. The research results indicate that: 1) When generate around,...
High salinity severely restrains plant growth and results in decrease of crop yield agricultural production. Thus, it is great significance to discover the crucial regulators involved salt resistance. Here, we report a novel mutant, sd58, which displays enhanced tolerance dwarf phenotype, by screening from ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) mutagenized rice mutant library. Genetic analysis showed that sd58 was caused single recessive locus. Map-based cloning allelic test revealed phenotypes were...
The crude oil crisis causes an increasing demand of renewable energy, among which, bioethanol is considered the cleanest and liquid fuel alternative to fossil (An Tran et al., 2019). Bioethanol was mostly produced from sugarcane corn, which violates vigorously against world's food security. Alternatively, efforts have been made produce non-food lignocellulose biomass, for example poplar, switchgrass crop stover 2019; Cai 2016; Fu 2011). Among corn most prevalent carbon-neutral...
Small GTPases regulate multiple important cellular behaviors and their activities are strictly controlled by a mass of regulators. The dysfunction or abnormal expression small regulators was frequently observed in various cancers. Here, we analyzed the prognostic correlation several related based on TCGA database found that Ankyrin Repeat PH Domain 1 (ARAP1), GTPase activating protein (GAP), is reduced lung adenocarcinoma tissues compared to normal displays positive with overall survival...
Abstract The inhibition of hepatic macrophage and Kupfer cell recruitment activation is a potential strategy for treating insulin resistance nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Cenicriviroc (CVC), dual C-C chemokine receptor 2 (CCR2) CCR5 antagonist, has shown antifibrotic activity in murine models NASH been evaluated clinical trials on patients with NASH. This study investigated the effects CVC infiltration polarization lipotoxic model C57BL/6 mice were fed high-cholesterol, high-fat (CL)...
ABSTRACT Disease resistance is often associated with compromised plant growth and yield due to defense‐growth tradeoffs. However, key components mechanisms underlying the tradeoffs are rarely explored in maize. In this study, we find that ZmSKI3, a putative subunit of SUPERKILLER (SKI) complex mediates 3′‐5′ degradation RNA, regulates both development disease The Zmski3 mutants showed retarded constitutively activated defense responses, while ZmSKI3 overexpression lines more susceptible...
