Project description:rs05-06_dgpp - dgpp - 2. The specific plant phosphorylated form of phosphatidic acid (PA), diacyglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP), was recently shown to be a second messenger in abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. The aim of the project is to identify among the set of ABA-regulated genes the ones also regulated by DGPP and/or PA. 4 dye-swap - CATMA arrays 5ml of 3 days-old suspension cells were incubated with ABA or DGPP 18:1 for 3hours under the conditions of culture. DGPP was emulsified by sonication for 1min 4 times at 4°C in 1ml of culture medium then added to 4ml of suspension cells. Cells were filtrated under vacuum, frozen in liquid nitrogen and RNA extracted. DGPP is from Avanti Polar Lipids.
Project description:As sessile organism, plants evolved a highly complicated signaling system to cope with unfavorable and fluctuating environmental conditions. Rapid and transient Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) burst is a common response to both biotic and abiotic stresses. Plants exposed with O3 could trigger extracellular similar ROS production through cell wall peroxidases and NPADPH oxidases, resulting in changes in the gene expression and cell death. Whereas ROS induced cell death is not simply due to its toxicity, rather due to interplay with several other signaling pathways, such as salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA) and ethylene signaling pathways. Furthermore, the three hormones have both synergistic and antagonistic interactions, where the suppression of JA signaling by SA is the mostly studied. In addition, ethylene promotes cell death while JA has a protective role upon O3 exposure. The role of SA is more complicated; depending on the genetic background it can have either cell death promoting or protecting roles. Hence, a clean system to deliver apoplastic ROS is required to study the role of ROS apart from con-current activation of other signaling pathways. Arabidopsis thaliana offer a convenient system to study apoplastic ROS signaling due to the availability of hormone signaling or biosynthesis mutants including the JA receptor mutant coi1-16 (CORONATINE INSENSITIVE1), the essential ethylene signaling mutant ein2 (ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE2), the SA biosynthesis mutant sid2 (SALICYLIC ACID INDUCTION DEFICIENT2 also known as ISOCHORISMATE SYNTHASE1), and essential regulators in SA/JA/ethylene-induced defense response triple mutant tga2 tga5 tga6 (Clade II TGA transcription factors). Here we used a combination of transcriptome analysis, cell death assays and mutant analysis to systematically quantified the contribution of hormone signaling in relation to apoplastic ROS signaling, identified transcription factors (TFs) involved in ROS regulation and dissected the components involved in defense hormones associated cell death. Transcriptome profiling of ozone response using two arabidopsis triple mutants coi1-16 ein2 sid2 and tga2 tga5 tga6 related to Jasmonic acid, salicylic acid and ethylene signaling to identify hormone-independant apoplastic ROS signaling
Project description:Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection could cause hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. HBV-mediated pathogenesis is only partially understood, but X protein (HBx) reportedly possesses oncogenic potential. Exosomes are small membrane vesicles with diverse functions released by various cells including hepatocytes, and HBV harnesses cellular exosome biogenesis and export machineries for virion morphogenesis and secretion. Therefore, HBV infection might cause changes in exosome contents with functional implications for both virus and host. In this project, exosome protein content changes induced by HBV and HBx were quantitatively analyzed by SILAC/LC-MS/MS. Exosomes prepared from SILAC-labeled hepatoma cell line Huh-7 transfected with HBx, wildtype or HBx-null HBV replicon plasmids were analyzed by LC-MS/MS.
