초록

애기장대에서 AtERF71/HRE2는 핵에서 전사인자로 작용하여 하위 유전자의 발현을 증가시키는 역할을 수행함으로써 저산소와 삼투 스트레스 반응에 관여할 것으로 여겨지는 유전자이다. 본 연구에서는 AtERF71/HRE2에 의해 직, 간접적으로 발현이 조절되는 하위 유전자를 알아보기 위해 AtERF71/HRE2 과발현체를 대상으로 마이크로어레이 실험을 수행하였다. 야생형에 비해 AtERF71/HRE2 과발현체에서 발현이 2배 이상 증가한 기능이 알려진 유전자는 AtERF71/HRE2 자신을 제외하고 161개였다. 161개 유전자 중 전사인자와 DNA-결합 단백질 등과 같은 전사조절자가 24개로 확인되어, AtERF71/HRE2는 하위 전사조절 유전자의 발현 조절을 통해 더 많은 유전자의 발현을 조절하는 상위 전사인자로서의 기능을 가질 것으로 추정되었다. 161개 유전자 중 15개 유전자를 대상으로 RT-PCR을 수행하여 마이크로어레이 결과의 신뢰성을 검증하였다. Genevestigator 데이터베이스 분석 결과, 161개 유전자 중 51개 유전자는 저산소 및 삼투 스트레스에 의해 발현이 증가하는 것으로 확인되었다. RT-PCR 분석 결과 AtERF71/HRE2 과발현체에서 발현이 증가한 15개 유전자 중 3개 유전자가 저산소에 의해 발현이 증가하였고, 다른 3개 유전자가 삼투 스트레스에 의해 발현이 증가하였으며, 이러한 결과는 이들 유전자가 AtERF71/HRE2에 의해 매개되는 저산소 또는 고염 스트레스 신호전달의 하위 유전자일 수 있음을 의미한다. 또한 본 연구의 마이크로어레이 분석 결과는 AtERF71/HRE2가 저산소 및 삼투 스트레스 반응뿐만 아니라 다른 환경 스트레스 반응과 식물 발달 조절에도 관여할 수 있음을 시사한다.

Arabidopsis AtERF71/HRE2, a transcription activator, is located in the nucleus and is involved in the signal transduction of low oxygen and osmotic stresses. In this study, microarray analysis using AtERF71/HRE2-overexpressing transgenic plants was performed to identify genes downstream of AtERF71/HRE2. A total of 161 different genes as well as AtERF71/HRE2 showed more than a twofold higher expression in AtERF71/HRE2-overexpressing transgenic plants compared with wild-type plants. Among the 161 genes, 24 genes were transcriptional regulators, such as transcription factors and DNA-binding proteins, based on gene ontology annotations, suggesting that AtERF71/HRE2 is an upstream transcription factor that regulates the activities of various downstream genes via these transcription regulators. RT-PCR analysis of 15 genes selected out of the 161 genes showed higher expression in AtERF71/HRE2-overexpressing transgenic plants, validating the microarray data. On the basis of Genevestigator database analysis, 51 genes among the 161 genes were highly expressed under low oxygen and/or osmotic stresses. RT-PCR analysis showed that the expression levels of three genes among the selected 15 genes increased under low oxygen stress and another three genes increased under high salt stress, suggesting that these genes might be downstream genes of AtERF71/HRE2 in low oxygen or high salt stress signal transduction. Microarray analysis results indicated that AtERF71/HRE2 might also be involved in the responses to other abiotic stresses and also in the regulation of plant developmental processes.
