Project description:Col-0 floral stem was grafted on the msh1 mutant (Col-0/msh1); on the dcl2,3,4,msh1 quadruple mutant (Col-0/dcl2,3,4,msh1); on Col-0 (Col-0/Col-0). Seeds were collected from the grafted Col-0 scion after grafts were established. Seed coming from the graft then were grown on the peat mix, leaf tissue was collected at the bolting and used for the bisulfite sequencing (methylome). Tissue from the msh1 mutant and dcl2,3,4,msh1 quadruple mutants used as rootstocks was similarly collected at the bolting stage and used for the bisulfite sequencing.
Project description:Transcriptional profiling of the vegetative part of Arabidopsis comparing wild type with the shr scl23 scr triple mutant. The latter is produced by crossing the strong null alleles of shr (shr-2), scl23 (scl23-1) and scr (scr-5). The goal was to determine the effects of the GRAS transcription factors SHR, SCL23 and SCR on growth and development of the Arabidopsis shoot system by global transcriptome analysis. Two-condition experiment: Col-0 vs. shr scl23 scr triple mutant. Biological replicates: 2 WT vs. triple mutant replicates, 2 WT vs. triple mutant replicates dye-swap replicates.

Project description:Col-0 floral stem was grafted on the msh1 mutant (Col-0/msh1); on the dcl2,3,4,msh1 quadruple mutant (Col-0/dcl2,3,4,msh1). Seeds were collected from the grafted Col-0 scion after grafts were established. Seed coming from the graft then were grown on the peat mix, leaf tissue was collected at the bolting and used for the small RNA sequencing. Tissue from the msh1 mutant and dcl2,3,4,msh1 quadruple mutants used as rootstocks was similarly collected at the bolting stage and used for the small RNA sequencing.

Project description:The Jasmonate pathway regulators MYC2, MYC3 and MYC4 are central nodes in plant signaling networks integrating environmental and developmental signals to fine-tune jasmonate defenses and plant growth. Hence, their activity needs to be tightly regulated in order to optimize plant fitness. Among the increasing number of mechanisms regulating MYCs activity, protein stability is arising as a major player. However, how the levels of MYCs proteins are modulated is still poorly understood. Here, we report that MYC2, MYC3 and MYC4 are targets of BPM proteins, which act as substrate adaptors of CUL3-based E3 ubiquitin ligases. Reduction-of-function of CUL3BPM in amiR-bpm lines, bpm235 triple mutants and cul3ab double mutants enhances MYC2 and MYC3 stability and accumulation, and potentiates plant responses to JA such as root-growth inhibition, and MYC-regulated gene expression. BPM3 protein is stabilized by JA, suggesting a new negative feed-back regulatory mechanism to control MYCs activity. Our results uncover a new layer for JA-pathway regulation by CUL3BPM–mediated degradation of MYC TFs.
Project description:ER bodies are endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-derived organelles that might be involved in defense systems. The NAI1 gene regulates the development of ER bodies because mutation of NAI1 abolishes the formation of ER bodies. The nai1-1 mutant had a single nucleotide change at an intron acceptor site of At2g22770 (NAI1 gene). Because of this mutation, aberrant splicing of NAI1 mRNA occurs in the nai1-1 mutant. NAI1 encodes a transcription factor that has a basic-helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain. Transient expression of NAI1 induced ER bodies in the nai1-1 mutant. To identify genes that are related to ER bodies, we compared the genome-wide expression profiles of Col-0 and the nai1-1 mutant using DNA microarrays. Twenty-nine genes were found to be expressed at least 2-fold more strongly in the nai1-1 mutant than in Col-0, and 341 genes were found to be expressed at least 2-fold more strongly in Col-0 than in the nai1-1 mutant. The 15 genes that showed the strongest expression in Col-0 compared to the expression in nai1-1 are shown in Table 1. Five of these genes are JAL genes (JAL22, JAL23, JAL31, JAL33 and PBP1/JAL30). The mRNA level of PYK10 was reduced in nai1-1 (4.3 fold larger in Col-0 than in nai1-1). The mRNA levels of GLL genes (GLL23 and GLL25) were also reduced in nai1-1. Keywords: mutant vs wt comparison
