RNA viruses can block expression of a transgene if a copy of the transgene has been added
Gene silencing and RNA virusesshare potential to produce ds RNA
Fire and Mello proved that ds RNA inhibits expression of endogenous genes homologous to that dsRNA
a RNA interference:
A type of gene regulation Involving small RNA molecules and induced by double stranded RNA
Adding a Chalcone synthase gene from Petunia fused to a strong viral promoterto transgenic Petunia interfered with expressionof the native homologous’gene.
Gene Silencing
Plant Gene “CoPlant Gene “Co--Suppression”Suppression”
First discovered in petunia (1990):• Increase in expression suppressed activity• Transgene mRNA degraded• Called co-suppression• Also called post-transcriptional gene silencing
(PTGS)
Gene Silencing
1.More common from strong promoters.
2. More common from inverted repeat inserts (could make a double stranded RNA).
3. Induced by RNA viruses (have double stranded RNA replication intermediates).
Biological significance of RNAi• Cellular immune response to viruses
In certain organism (especially plants), RNAi serves as a first line of defense against viral infection, as viral replication typically includes dsRNA species
• Genetic stabilityRNAi repress the mobility of transposable genetic elements in C.
elegans and S. pombe which requires the formation of dsRNA
Revealed that RNAi can also effect transcriptional gene silencing by promoting heterochromatin formation (histone and DNA methylation)
• Organismal development and germline fate
Developmental processes are affected by endogenous non-coding RNAs that function through the RNAi pathway (microRNAs)
RNA interference (RNAi)
• RNAi is the process whereby double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) induces homology-dependent degradation of cognate RNA (i.e. gene silencing)
• RNAi is central to cellular mechanisms of post-transcriptional gene silencing (PTGS) and can also effect transcriptional gene silencing (TGS)
• RNAi is highly conserved among eukaryotes (fungi, protozoans, plants, nematodes, invertebrates, mammals)
Features of RNAi
Induced by dsRNA with homology to exons
Catalytic: very small amounts of ds RNA are sufficient
Spreads: injection into gut silences genes in embryos
Small RNAs produced
What is the function of RNAimechanism in non-transgenic organisms?
Protection against viruses
Keep Transposable elements inactive
Gene regulation
Transcriptional gene silencing is initiated by RNA directed methylation of promoter regions
dsRNA homologous to promoters leads to methylation and inactivation by recruitment of chromatin remodeling enzymes.
RNA directed methylases also affect methylation of genes in germline.
May be important to imprinting
RNA directed regulation of gene expression is more common than we thought.
How does RNAi work?
RNAi works postranscriptionally……..
in key two steps!
• Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is processed by Dicer, an RNaseIII family member, to produce 21-23nt small interfering RNAs(siRNAs)
• siRNAs are manipulated by a multi-component nucleasecalled the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC).
• RISC specifically cleaves mRNAs that have perfect complementarity to an siRNA strand
Overview of RNAi
Components of the RNAi pathway• Dicer – u Arabidopsis 4x Dicer like = DCL
Dicer belongs to the RNase III family of dsRNA-specific ribonucleases. Contains dsRNA-binding motifs and a PAZ domain believed to mediate protein-protein interactions.
• Argonaute homologs (Dicer/RISC associated) - u Arabidopsis 10x. argonaut byl popsán jako meristémovýmutant Arabidopsis.Argonaute family members are highly basic proteins that contain PAZ and PIWI domains.
RISC komplex „rozmotává“ dvouřetězcové fragmenty RNA a ssRNA RISC komplex pak působí po „hybridizaci“ s cílem degradaci RNA, blok translace či metylaci DNA.
• RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP)Endogenous RdRPs influence RNAi in certain eukaryotes including fungi, plants, C. elegans. Function to amplify the dsRNA signal.
Catalysis: RdRP copies mRNA making more ds RNA.
Dicer cuts that generating more siRNA
More RdRP is activated and more dsRNA is made.
Spread: dsRNA transportedto other cells

miRNA genes• To date, 1185 miRNA genes have been identified in various
organisms, including approximately 200 in each human, mouse, and rat genomes.
Několik set u rostlin.
• Certain miRNAs arehighly conserved amongeukaryotic species.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs)• miRNAs are products of endogenous genes and function
through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway to post-transcriptionally regulate the expression of other genes.
miRNAs in development• miRNAs are differentially expressed among various tissue
types and at various stages in cellular differentiation. e.g.there exist stem cell and neuronal cell specific miRNAs.
• Disruption of RNAi pathway results in early embryonic lethality due to depletion of stem cells.
• Certain miRNAs are known to control developmental timing and fate specification in C. elegans, leaf morphogenesis in plants, and hematopoetic lineage differentiation in mice.

Stress Responses & Gene Expression• plants must
adapt to stresses because of their sedentary lifestyle
Fig. 22.2, Buchanan et al.
Adaptation and Acclimation
• Adaptation - evolutionary changes that enable an organism to exploit a certain niche. These include modification of existing genes, as well as gain/loss of genes.– e.g., thermophilic enzymes in organisms that tolerate
high temperature • Acclimation – inducible response(s) that allows
an organism to tolerate an unfavorable or lethal (to some plants) change in the environment.– e.g., heat shock response
Types of StressAbiotic
1. heat2. cold3. drought4. salt5. wind6. oxidative7. anaerobic8. heavy metals9. wounding10. nutrient deprivation11. excessive light
Biotic12. pathogens13. herbivores
Plants respond to stresses as individual cells and as whole organisms. Stress-induced signals can be transmitted throughout plant, making other parts more ready to withstand stress.

Heat Stress (or Heat Shock) Response
• Discovered in Drosophila, polytene chromosome puffing
• Specific response to temperatures ~10-15oC above normal growth temp.
• Ubiquitous• Conserved• Rapid• Transient• Dramatic change in pattern of protein synthesis
Heat stress effects on protein synthesis in soybean seedlings (J. Key).
Heat stress/shock protein synthesis in the cyanobacteriumSynechococcus.
Generalized order of events in heat shock response
Initial events:1. Inhibition of protein synthesis 2. Inhibition of transcription & RNA
processing3. Induction of new hs (hsp) mRNAs4. Pre-existing cellular mRNAs still present
but not translated (initiation factor eIF4A & B deactivated)
Phase II events
5. Partial restoration of protein synthesis, mainly translation of hsp mRNAs – bez
čepičky!!6. Accumulation of hsp (heat shock
proteins)7. Gradual resumption of normal cellular
protein synthesis8. Decline in hsp synthesis
Function: Thermotolerance
• Enables organisms to survive high temp.• A sub-lethal heat shock allows organisms to
survive a lethal treatment.• Production of hsps correlate with acquired
thermotolerance.• Some mutants (yeast) and transgenic plants with
altered expression of certain hsps don’t show thermotolerance.

Heat Shock Proteins (hsp)
• ~100, ~90, ~70, and ~60 kDa
• Low molecular weight (LMW) hsp: ~27, ~20-22, ~15-18 kDa
• all induced within 30 min.
• more LMW hsp in plants
• 2-Dimensional gel electrophoresis and molecular cloning indicates most hsps are families of related proteins, particularly hsp70 and the LMW hsps
HSP functions
• 1 LMW hsp is ubiquitin, which tags proteins to be degraded by the proteasome
• hsp90, hsp70, and hsp60 involved in protein folding: "molecular chaperones"
• hsp100 may promote translation of hsp mRNAs, via CAP-independent mechanism Dominantní regulátor

HSP70, a chaperonin• Essential gene• Homologues found in cytoplasm, ER lumen,
mitochondria, and chloroplasts • function in protein targeting and assembly in normal
(non-stressed) cells, hydrolyze ATP• Constitutive & heat-induced (cytoplasmic) forms
– the heat-induced form first appears in the nucleolus, then goes to cytoplasm (may protect pre-ribosomes from heat stress?)
• Also, some hsp70s are light-induced; chloroplast hsp70 helps protect PSII from light/heat damage in Chlamy
HSP60 (cpn60)
• first one termed "molecular chaperone“• Discovered as the RuBPCase LS binding protein
that participates in RuBPCase assembly• in eucaryotes, only in mitochondria and plastids • similar to E. coli GroEL gene• exists as abundant 720 kD complex with two
subunits of 61 and 60 kDa (ATPase) • associates with cpn10 (GroES homologue) • facilitates folding/ assembly of other proteins
LMW HSPs
• highly heat-induced • 4 nuclear gene families:
1. Class I cytoplasmic2. Class II cytoplasmic3. Chloroplast localized4. Endomembrane localized (ER)
• found in organelles only in plants• function mostly unknown• aggregate in vivo into "heat shock granules"
HSP regulation
• most work on LMW hsp in plants• induction is mainly transcriptional but
also translational control (hsp mRNAs preferentially translated)
• genes induced coordinately, but not equally in all tissues
• light can also induce some LMW hsps
Cis-acting transcriptional regulatory elements
• HSE (heat shock elements) in the 5' regions:– ~10-15 bp partial palindromes– multiple copies required– also found in other HS genes (e.g., hsp 70)– similar to HSEs in animals
HSEs in plants and animals.
Heat-shock transcription factor (HSF)
• studied mostly in animals and yeast• Binds to HSEs• Contains leucine zipper motifs• Binds DNA as a trimer• Activity is induced by heat, and
phosphorylation• Activity Repressed by HSP70

Sequencing of the Arabidopsis genome revealed a unique complexity of the plant heat stress transcription factor (Hsf) family. By structural characteristics and phylogenetic comparison, the 21 representatives areassigned to 3 classes and 14 groups. Particularly striking is the finding of anew class of Hsfs (AtHsfC1) closely related to Hsf1 from rice and to Hsfs identified from frequently found expressed sequence tags of tomato,potato, barley, and soybean. Evidently, this new type of Hsf is well expressed in different plant tissues. Besides the DNA binding and oligomerization domains (HR-A/B region), we identified other functional modules of Arabidopsis Hsfs by sequence comparison with the well-characterized tomato Hsfs. These are putative motifs for nuclear importand export and transcriptional activation (AHA motifs). There is intriguingflexibility of size and sequence in certain parts of the otherwise stronglyconserved N-terminal half of these Hsfs. We have speculated about possible exon-intron borders in this region in the ancient precursor gene of plant Hsfs, similar to the exon-intron structure of the present mammalian Hsf-encoding genes.

Plant programmed cell death and the point of no returnWouter G. van Doorn
The point of no return during programmed cell death (PCD) is defined as the step beyond which the cell is irreversibly committed to die. Some plant cells can be saved before thispoint by inducing the formation of functional chloroplasts. Avisibly senescent tissue will then become green again and livefor months or years. The mechanism of this reversal is only partially known. The point of no return in fungi and animals is often associated with lack of mitochondrial function. In plant cells that do not regreen, there is no evidence for PCD reversal that results in a long life. It is unclear why chloroplast-containing cells, in contrast to those with only mitochondria,have long lives after PCD reversal.
(i) no examples of plant PCD conform to the apoptotic type
(ii) many examples of PCD during plant development agree with the autophagic type,and
(iii) that other examples are apparently neither apoptotic nor autophagic.

• T-DNA of A. tumefaciens is excised and integrates into the plant genome as part of the natural infection process.
• Any foreign DNA inserted into the T-DNA will also be integrated.
1. Cytokinins(plant hormone for cell plant division and tumorous growth)
2. Enzymes for indoleacetic acid (auxin) synthesisAnother plant hormone (inducing stem and leaf elongation, inducing parthenocarpy and
preventing aging)
3. Enzymes for synthesis and release of novel plant metabolites:
the opines (uniques amino acid derivatives) the agrocinopines (phosphorylated sugar derivatives) .
Opines and agrocinopines are NUTRIENTS for A.tumefacies. They can not be used by other bacterial species
It provides unique niche for A.tumefaciens
Important genes encoded by Ti plasmid
Nopaline
Opines are nutrients that are also for quorum sensing
The plant cells start to secrete the opines
from transferred bacterial T DNA
opine diffuses into the surrounding cells
and serves as a signal molecules for the conjugation
of the agrobacterium

Co-integrated vectors (hybrid ti-plasmids)
DISADVANTAGES:1) Long homologies required between the Ti plasmid and the E. coli plasmids (pBR322 based Intermediate vectors)making them difficult to engineer and use
2) Relatively inefficient gene transfer compared to the binary vecto
Right now rarely used
Ti plasmid vector systems are often working as binary vectors

DISADVANTAGE: Depending on the orientation, plasmids with two different origins of replication may be unstable in E. coli
ADVANTAGE: small vectors are used, which increases transfer efficiency from E. coli to Agrobacterium.
No intermolecular recombination is needed
Promoters used for expression in transgenic plants
35S, cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter
CaMV 35S is a strong promoter that is active
in essentially all dicot plant tissues.
CaMV is a circular dsDNA genome virus
