Germins and germin like proteins: an overview.
Molecular investigations during wheat germination have revealed unique developmentally regulated proteins, designated as germins, which show remarkable resistance to broad specificity proteases and to dissociation in SDS. Germins in cereals have an oxalate oxidase activity, which generates H2O2 from the oxidative breakdown of oxalate thereby playing a significant role in plant development and d...
متن کاملThe multigene family encoding germin-like proteins of barley. Regulation and function in Basal host resistance.
Germin-like proteins (GLPs) have been shown to be encoded by multigene families in several plant species and a role of some subfamily members in defense against pathogen attack has been proposed based on gene regulation studies and transgenic approaches. We studied the function of six GLP subfamilies of barley (Hordeum vulgare) by selecting single mRNAs for gene expression studies as well as ov...
متن کاملCharacterization of Peanut Germin-Like Proteins, AhGLPs in Plant Development and Defense
BACKGROUND Germin-like superfamily members are ubiquitously expressed in various plant species and play important roles in plant development and defense. Although several GLPs have been identified in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), their roles in development and defense remain unknown. In this research, we study the spatiotemporal expression of AhGLPs in peanut and their functions in plant defens...
متن کاملGermin-Like Polypeptides Increase in Barley Roots during Salt Stress.
The 26 kilodalton, isoelectric point 6.3 and 6.5 (Gs1 and Gs2) polypeptides that increase in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) roots during salt stress were isolated and identified. Both Gs1 and Gs2 had high sequence similarity to germin, a protein that increases significantly in germinating wheat seeds. Like germin, Gs1 and Gs2 were resistant to proteases and were glycosylated. Immunoblots were prob...
متن کاملOverexpression of Arabidopsis plasmodesmata germin-like proteins disrupts root growth and development.
In plants, a population of non-cell-autonomous proteins (NCAPs), including numerous transcription factors, move cell to cell through plasmodesmata (PD). In many cases, the intercellular trafficking of these NCAPs is regulated by their interaction with specific PD components. To gain further insight into the functions of this NCAP pathway, coimmunoprecipitation experiments were performed on a to...
