초록

본 연구에서는 식물뿌리의 굴중성 반응에 있어서 식물호르몬과 AtEXPA3 유전자와의 관계를 밝히고자 하였다. AtEXPA3 유전자의 RT-PCR을 통한 발현분석 결과 잎, 근출엽, 뿌리 꽃 등 생장이 활발한 조직에서 발현률이 높게 나타났으며, 굴중성 자극과 BRs, IAA에 의해서도 발현이 증가되었다. 또한 ethylene 생합성 저해제인 AVG를 처리하면 굴중성 반응이 현저히 억제되었는데 이는 ethylene 그 자체도 BR과 IAA처럼 굴중성을 촉진시키는 활성을 갖고 있음을 의미한다. 한편 호르몬을 처리하지 않은 AtEXPA3 RNAi mutant에서 굴중성 반응이 억제되는 현상은 애기장대 뿌리의 생장에 관여하는 AtEXPA3의 조절 인자로 BRs, auxin, ethylene 등의 식물호르몬이 관여하고 있음을 나타낸다. 아울러 BRs signaling mutant에서 변화된 굴중성(bri1-301, bak1에서 감소, BRI-GFP에 서 증가) 반응의 감소와 증가는 굴중성 반응이 BRs의 신호전달 과정을 통하여 일어남을 의미한다. 결론적으로 애기장대 뿌리의 굴중성 반응은 식물호르몬에 의한 AtEXPA3 유전자의 발현 증가의 결과로 인해 애기장대 뿌리의 생장이 촉진되어 나타나는 결과라 하겠다.

We focused on relationship between phytohormones and AtEXPA3 gene in gravitropic response of A. thaliana. RT-PCR analysis shows that AtEXPA3 was highly expressed in actively developing tissues such as leaf, rosette, root and flower tissues. AtEXPA3 gene expression was enhanced by gravistimulation, BR and IAA. Furthermore, decreased gravitropism was observed when treatment of AVG, an ethylene biosynthetic inhibitor, suggesting that ethylene has a gravistimulating effect itself as well as BRs and IAA. Inhibition of gravitropism in AtEXPA3 RNAi mutant suggests that BR, auxin and ethylene are playing roles as regulators of AtEXPA3. In addition, altered gravitropism in BRs signaling mutant (decreased in bri1-301, bak1, and increased BRI-GFP) indicated that BRs signaling mediated the gravitropism. In conclusion, gravitropic responses of Arabidopsis root resulting from root growth were mediated by increased expression of AtEXPA3 gene, which is stimulated by phytohormones.
