Changes in the activity and mRNA of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase during tracheary element differentiation in zinnia.
Changes in the enzymatic activity of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD) and in the expression of a gene for CAD during tracheary element (TE) differentiation were investigated in cultures of single cells isolated from the mesophyll of zinnia (Zinnia elegans). In cultures in which TE differentiation was induced (TE-inductive cultures), CAD activity increased from h 36 after the start of cultur...
متن کاملProteinase Activity during Tracheary Element Differentiation in Zinnia Mesophyll Cultures.
The zinnia (Zinnia elegans) mesophyll cell culture tracheary element (TE) system was used to study proteinases active during developmentally programmed cell death. Substrate-impregnated gels and single-cell assays revealed high levels of proteinase activity in differentiating TEs compared with undifferentiated cultured cells and expanding leaves. Three proteinases (145, 28, and 24 kD) were excl...
متن کاملMolecular cloning and characterization of cDNAs associated with tracheary element differentiation in cultured Zinnia cells.
Mesophyll cells isolated mechanically from leaves of Zinnia elegans L. cv Canary bird differentiate into tracheary elements (TE) semisynchronously and at high frequency. Using this system, three cDNA clones, TED2 to TED4, whose corresponding mRNAs were expressed in a close association with tracheary element differentiation, were isolated by differential screening of a lambda gt11 cDNA library. ...
متن کاملThe role of MAP65-1 in microtubule bundling during Zinnia tracheary element formation.
The MAP65 family of microtubule-associated proteins performs various functions at different stages of the cell cycle and differentiation. In this study, we have investigated the synchronous transdifferentiation of Zinnia mesophyll cells into tracheary elements in vitro. This allowed us to examine the role of the microtubule-associated protein MAP65 during the characteristic bunching of cortical...
متن کاملProteasome inhibitors prevent tracheary element differentiation in zinnia mesophyll cell cultures
To determine whether proteasome activity is required for tracheary element (TE) differentiation, the proteasome inhibitors clasto-lactacystin beta-lactone and carbobenzoxy-leucinyl-leucinyl-leucinal (LLL) were used in a zinnia (Zinnia elegans) mesophyll cell culture system. The addition of proteasome inhibitors at the time of culture initiation prevented differentiation otherwise detectable at ...
