Genome-wide transcriptome analysis bZIP29 dominant negative repressor line in root tips of Arabidopsis

ABSTRACT: The Arabidopsis basic leucine zipper transcription factor bZIP29 of the bZIP group I TF family, expressed mainly in proliferative tissues, is functionally characterized in this study. In roots, bZIP29 is highly expressed in the quiescent centre and the columella cells of the root apical meristem. Mutant analyses demonstrate that bZIP29 regulates root meristem cell number and root gravitropic responses. RNA-seq transcriptome profiling of the root meristem shows that bZIP29 target genes are linked to cell wall organization, and that gene regulatory networks controlling proper root meristem organization are intensively rewired upon its perturbation.
