Xu SL, Shen SS, Xu ZH, Xue HW: [Isolation of ABA-regulated genes in Oryza sativa through fluorescent differential display PCR (FDD-PCR)]. Shi Yan Sheng Wu Xue Bao. 2002 Dec;35(4):257-62. Abscisic acid (ABA) was critical in plant seed development and response to environmental factors such as stress situations. To study the possible ABA related signaling transduction pathways, we tried to isolate the ABA-regulated genes through fluorescent differential display PCR (FDD-PCR) technology using rice seedling as materials (treated with ABA for 2, 4, 8 and 12h). In the 17 fragments isolated, 14 and 3 clones were up-and down-regulated respectively. Sequence analyses revealed that the encoded proteins were involved in photosynthesis (7 fragments), signal transduction (1 fragments), transcription (2 fragments), metabolism and resistance (6 fragments), and unknown protein (1 fragments). 3 clones, encoding putative alpha/beta hydrolase fold, putative vacuolar H+ -ATPase B subunit, putative tyrosine phosphatase, were confirmed to be regulated under ABA treatment by RT-PCR and northern blot analysis. FDD-PCR and possible functional mechanisms of ABA were discussed. |
