오존의 처리에 의한 식물체의 항산화 제거 시스템에 관여하는 항산화효소의 활성도 변화를 조사한 결과는 다음과 같다.저분자(低分子)의 항산화물질(抗酸化物質)인 아스코브산은 은하콩과 삼남콩 공히 오존의 노출시간(露出時間)이 길어질수록 서서히 감소(減少)하는 경향(傾向)을 보였으며 환원형(還元形) 글루타치온의 함량변화(含量變化)는 은하콩에서는 거의 증가가 없었으나 삼남콩의 경우는 오존처리 1시간 이후(以後)부터 상당한 증가(增加)가 있었다. Ascorbate peroxidase의 활성도(活性度)는 은하콩에서는 오존처리 초기(初期)부터 서서히 증가(增加)하는 경향(傾向)을 보였으나 삼남콩의 경우는 처리 4시간 이후에 급격하게 증가하는 경향(傾向)을 보였다. Glutathione reductase활성도(活性度)는 은하콩은 오존처리 3시간까지는 서서히 증가(增加)하다가 그 이후(以後)에 급격(急激)하게 증가(增加)하는 경향(傾向)이었으며, 삼남콩은 활성증가(活性增加)가 뚜렷하지 않았다. Dehydroascorbate reductase의 활성도(活性度)는 두 품종(品種) 공히 오존처리시 대조구(對照區)보다 활성(活性)이 낮게 나타났으며 처리 3시간 이후(以後)부터 활성(活性)이 크게 감소(減少)하였다. Monodehydrosascorbate reductase는 두 품종(品種) 공히 처리초기부터 활성증가(活性增加)가 뚜렷하게 나타났다. 삼남콩의 경우에는 2시간 처리(處理)시 급격(急激)한 증가(增加)를 보이다가 일정(一定)하게 유지(維持)되는 경향(傾向)을 나타내었다. 은하콩의 Ascorbate peroxidase 동위효소(同位酵素)의 패턴변화는 0.2ppm의 오존의 처리(處理)시 5개의 활성 밴드가 확인되었고 Rf 0.18위치의 밴드가 새로 형성되었으며 Rf 0.38의 밴드가 약해지며 0.48위치의 활성 밴드가 강하게 나타났다.

To determine whether the enhanced UV-B causes oxidative stress, and to test the relationship between plant growth response and biochemical defense response to UV-B, two soybean plants, Keunolkong, a highly UV-B susceptible cultivar, and Danyeubkong, a less UV-B susceptible cultivar, were subjected to the enhanced UV-B [daily dose : 0.06 (control) and 11.32 (enhanced UV-B) kJ $m^{-2}$ ; $UV-B_{BE}$] for 3 weeks. Contents of malondialdehyde and total carotenold were increased in Keunolkong compared with Danyeubkong by UV-B. In control plants, ascorbate level of Danyeubkong was 3 times higher than that of Keunolkong. The ratio of dehydroascorbate/ascorbate was highly increased in Keunolkong by UV-B . The activities of antioxidative enzyme such as superoxide dismutase, ascorbate peroxidase, monodehydroascorbate reductase and glutathione reductase were increased in both cultivars by UV-B. This results indicate that enhanced UV-B caused oxidative stress in both two cultivars, especially in Keunolkong. Susceptibility of two soybean cultivars to UV-B is closely related to the levels of antioxidants such as carotenoid and ascorbate.

Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) seedlings exposed to various concentrations of $CdC1_2$ (0∼100 $\mu$M) in the nutrient solution for up to 9 days were analyzed with the seedling growth, $H_2O_2$ production, glutathione levels and activity changes of enzymes related to $H_2O_2$ removal. The growth of seedlings was inhibited with over 50 $\mu$M Cd, whereas the levels of $H_2O_2$ and glutathione were enhanced with Cd exposure level and time. Meanwhile, Cd exposure increased the activities of catalase (CAT) and glutathione reductase (GR) but decreased the activities of dehydroascorbate acid reductase (DHAR) and ascorbate peroxidase (APX) in both leaves and roots. These results suggest that the altered activities of antioxidant enzymes particularly involved in the $H_2O_2$ removal and the subsequent $H_2O$$_2$ accumulation could induce the Cd-induced phytotoxicity.

염 스트레스(0, 50, 100mM NaCl)에 의한 식물 반응을 이해하기 위하여, 본 실험은 수경법으로 2엽기까지 기른 배추를 이용하였다. 신선중과 건물중, 엽록소, 항산화 물질, 폴리아민함량, 항산화 효소 활성, 그리고 이온 레벨을 조사하였다. 배추의 생체중 및 건물중은 염의 증가에 따라 증가하였으며, 50mM NaCl 처리시 최적의 성장을 보였다. Chl a, total Chl, carotenoid 함량과 Chl a/b 비는 100mM NaCI 처리후 6일째 증가하였으나, Chl b 함량은 감소하였다. 글루타치온 함량은 염처리 후 6일째 뿌리에서 증가하였으며, dehydroascorbate는 6일째 잎과 뿌리에서 현저하게 증가하였다. 염처리후 6일째 잎에서, ascorbate peroxidase 활성은 증가하였으나, catalase와 glutathione reductase 활성은 감소하였다. 지상부에 100mM NaCI 처리후 3일째, $Na^+$ 함량은 12.5배 증가하였으나, $Ca^{2+}$, $K^+$과 $Mg^{2+}$ 함량은 43-57% 감소하였다. 또한 염 스트레스에 의한 스페르미딘 감소 현상과 스페르민 증가현상을 나타내었다. 50mM NaCl 처리에 의해 배추의 생장 촉진, 글루타치온 및 비타민 C 함량 증가 현상이 나타났으며, 또한 식물의 생장 촉진에 의한 재배 기간의 단축효과도 기대된다.

Methyl jasmonate (MeJA) is a signal molecule in the activation of defense responses in plants. In this study, we isolated 15 MeJA-inducible genes by subtractive hybridization. These genes encode two myrosinase-binding proteins, five lipase-like proteins, a polygalacturonase inhibitor, a putative chlorophyll-associated protein, a terpene synthase, a dehydroascorbate reductase, an ascorbate oxidase, a cysteine protease, an O-methyltransferase, and an epithiospecifier protein. Northern analysis showed that most of the Chinese cabbage genes are barely expressed in healthy leaves, but are strongly induced by MeJA treatment. We also examined whether these MeJA-inducible genes were activated by ethethon, BTH, and Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst), a nonhost pathogen of Chinese cabbage. The results showed that none of the MeJA-inducible genes was strongly induced by ethephon or by BTH. The genes encoding lipase-like proteins and a myrosinase-binding protein were weakly induced by Pst. Other MeJA-inducible genes were not activated at all by the pathogen.

Thioltransferase, also known as glutaredoxin, was purified from Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris ssp. napus var. pekinensis) by a combination of ion-exchange chromatography and gel filtration. Its purity was confirmed by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and its molecular weight was estimated to be about 12,000 which is comparable with those of most known thioltransferases. The enzyme utilizes 2-hydroxyethyl disulfide, S-sulfocysteine, ${\alpha}-chymotrypsin$, insulin, and trypsin as substrates in the presence of reduced glutathione. The enzyme has Km values of 0.03-0.97 mM for these substrates. It appeared to contain dehydroascorbate reductase activity. The pH optimum of the enzyme was 8.5, when 2-hydroxyethyl disulfide was used as a substrate. It was greatly activated by reduced glutathione. Its activity was not significantly lost when stored at high temperature, indicating its thermostable character. It may play an important role in thiol-disulfide exchange in plant cells.

Chromium (Cr) toxicity is hazardous to the seed germination, growth, and development of plants. ${\gamma}$-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) is a non-protein amino acid and is involved in stress tolerance in plants. To investigate the effects of GABA in alleviating Cr toxicity, we treated eight-d-old mustard (Brassica juncea L.) seedlings with Cr (0.15 mM and 0.3 mM $K_2CrO_4$, 5 days) alone and in combination with GABA ($125{\mu}M$) in a semi-hydroponic medium. The roots and shoots of the seedlings accumulated Cr in a dose-dependent manner, which led to an increase in oxidative damage [lipid peroxidation; hydrogen peroxide ($H_2O_2$) content; superoxide ($O{_2}^{{\cdot}-}$) generation; lipoxygenase (LOX) activity], MG content, and disrupted antioxidant defense and glyoxalase systems. Chromium stress also reduced growth, leaf relative water content (RWC), and chlorophyll (chl) content but increased phytochelatin (PC) and proline (Pro) content. Furthermore, supplementing the Cr-treated seedlings with GABA reduced Cr uptake and upregulated the non-enzymatic antioxidants (ascorbate, AsA; glutathione, GSH) and the activities of the enzymatic antioxidants including ascorbate peroxidase (APX), monodehydroascorbate reductase (MDHAR), dehydroascorbate reductase (DHAR), glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glyoxalase I (Gly I), and glyoxalase II (Gly II), and finally reduced oxidative damage. Adding GABA also increased leaf RWC and chl content, decreased Pro and PC content, and restored plant growth. These findings shed light on the effect of GABA in improving the physiological mechanisms of mustard seedlings in response to Cr stress.
