초록

T-DNA가 표지된 집단에서 AlaAT 유전자가 깨어진 돌연변이체(alaat)를 분리하고, AlaAt1 특이 프라이머를 이용하여 유전자형을 결정하였다. Alaat의 표현형은 대조구와 비교해서 생장의 감소를 보였고, 종자 역시 작고 생산성의 감소를 보였다. 돌연변이체의 AlaAT 활성은 거의 검출되지 않았다. 고염 스트레스 하에서 alaat의 반응을 엽록소 형광과 항산화 효소들의 활성 및 RT-PCR을 이용하여 대조구와 비교하였다. 고염, 건조 및 저온과 같은 모든 비생물적 스트레스에 대한 Fv/Fm은 대조구와 alaat 둘 다 감소를 보였으며, 비생물적 스트레스에 대한 엽록소 형광은 거의 유사하였다. 항산화 효소인 peroxidase (POX)의 활성은 고염 스트레스에 의해 대조구는 증가하나 alaat에서는 오히려 감소하였다. RT-PCR에 의한 cAPX, POX 및 AlaAT mRNA의 수준을 분석한 결과, 효소 활성과 마찬가지로 AlaAt mRNA는 alaat에서 나타나지 않았고, POX2 mRNA는 대조구는 약간의 증가를 보이나 alaat는 거의 검출할 수 없었다. cAPX mRNA는 대조구와 alaat 모두 고염 스트레스에 의해 크게 증가하였다. 이 같은 결과는 AlaAT 유전자 기능의 상실은 염 스트레스 하에서 벼 식물의 생장에 대해 광합성능 보다는 항산화 효소, 특히 POX 활성 및 합성을 변화시킬 수 있음을 제안한다.

An AlaAT knock-out mutant (alaat) of rice (Oryza sativa L.) was isolated from T-DNA tagging lines and the genotypes of its progeny were determined with AlaAT1-specific primers. The alaat phenotypes showed decreased growth and grain yield when compared with control plants. The activity of AlaAT1 in the mutant plants was practically undetectable. The responses of alaat plants to growth under salt stress were compared with those of control plants by measuring chlorophyll fluorescence and the activities and mRNA expression of antioxidant enzymes. All abiotic stresses tested (salt, drought, and chilling) caused a similar decrease in chlorophyll fluorescence in both alaat and wild type plants. The activity of peroxidase (POX), an antioxidant enzyme, decreased following salt treatment of alaat plants, while control plant showed an increased activity. The mRNA levels for cAPX (cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase), POX2, and AlaAT were determined by RT-PCR following salt stress. No AlaAT1 mRNA was detected in alaat plants. The POX2 mRNA showed a slightly increased level in the wild type but was not detected in alaat plants, in agreement with the activity assays. The levels of cAPX mRNA were greatly increased in both the wild type and alaat plants. The salt stress effects on rice plant growth are therefore proposed to reflect a loss of function of AlaAT, which alters the activity and synthesis of antioxidant enzymes (especially peroxidases), rather than a direct effect on photosynthesis.
