MicroRNA regulation of the CUC genes is required for boundary size control in Arabidopsis meristems.
We have analysed the role of a microRNA, miR164, in boundary formation during organ initiation from Arabidopsis meristems. The establishment and maintenance of the boundary domain are controlled by three partially redundant genes, CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON1 (CUC1), CUC2 and CUC3. We show that miR164 overexpression phenocopies the cuc1 cuc2 double mutant by inducing post-transcriptional downregulatio...
متن کاملA role for chromatin remodeling in regulation of CUC gene expression in the Arabidopsis cotyledon boundary.
The CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON (CUC) genes CUC1, CUC2 and CUC3 act redundantly to control cotyledon separation in Arabidopsis. In order to identify novel regulators of this process, we have performed a phenotypical enhancer screen using a null allele of cuc2, cuc2-1. We identified three nonsense alleles of AtBRM, an Arabidopsis SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling ATPase, that result in strong cotyledon fusi...
متن کاملRole of the AtClC genes in regulation of root elongation in Arabidopsis
The protein family of anion channel (ClC) constitute a family of transmembrane trnsporters that either function as anion channel or as H+/anion exchanger. The expression of three genes of AtClCa, AtClCb and AtClCd in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana were silenced by a T-DNA insertion . When the pH of the medium was slightly acidic the length of the primary root of plants with a disrupted At...
متن کاملThe WIGGUM gene is required for proper regulation of floral meristem size in Arabidopsis.
The study of cell division control within developing tissues is central to understanding the processes of pattern formation. The floral meristem of angiosperms gives rise to floral organs in a particular number and pattern. Despite its critical role, little is known about how cell division is controlled in the floral meristem, and few genes involved have been identified. We describe the phenoty...
متن کاملDRB2 Is Required for MicroRNA Biogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana
BACKGROUND The Arabidopsis thaliana (Arabidopsis) DOUBLE-STRANDED RNA BINDING (DRB) protein family consists of five members, DRB1 to DRB5. The biogenesis of two developmentally important small RNA (sRNA) species, the microRNAs (miRNAs) and trans-acting small interfering RNAs (tasiRNAs) by DICER-LIKE (DCL) endonucleases requires the assistance of DRB1 and DRB4 respectively. The importance of miR...
