Histone acetylation functions in the wound-induced spore formation in nori.

ABSTRACT: The red macroalgae Pyropia yezoensis is one of the most economically important marine crops. In the asexual reproduction process, released archeospores could provide secondary seedling resources in nori farming and be used to establish asexual seeding strategies. We previously found that wounds could induce the somatic cells in sectioned Pyropia thalli to develop into large number of asexual wound-induced spores (WIS) in a short time. Many genes involved in signaling pathways, cell division, cell wall remodeling, etc. exhibited transcriptional variation in this cell fate transition process. However, the regulatory mechanisms controlling gene transcription remain elusive. In this study, we found that suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA), the inhibitor of histone deacetylase,
