  • Synthesis and Functions of Jasmonates in Maize
    plants Review Synthesis and Functions of Jasmonates in Maize Eli J. Borrego and Michael V. Kolomiets * Department of Plant Pathology and Microbiology, Texas A&M University, College Station, TX 77843, USA; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +1-979-458-4624 Academic Editor: Eve Syrkin Wurtele Received: 29 October 2016; Accepted: 22 November 2016; Published: 29 November 2016 Abstract: Of the over 600 oxylipins present in all plants, the phytohormone jasmonic acid (JA) remains the best understood in terms of its biosynthesis, function and signaling. Much like their eicosanoid analogues in mammalian system, evidence is growing for the role of the other oxylipins in diverse physiological processes. JA serves as the model plant oxylipin species and regulates defense and development. For several decades, the biology of JA has been characterized in a few dicot species, yet the function of JA in monocots has only recently begun to be elucidated. In this work, the synthesis and function of JA in maize is presented from the perspective of oxylipin biology. The maize genes responsible for catalyzing the reactions in the JA biosynthesis are clarified and described. Recent studies into the function of JA in maize defense against insect herbivory, pathogens and its role in growth and development are highlighted. Additionally, a list of JA-responsive genes is presented for use as biological markers for improving future investigations into JA signaling in maize. Keywords: jasmonic acid; maize; lipoxygenase; oxylipins; plant-insect interactions; plant-microbe interactions 1. Importance of Maize as a Crop and a Genetic Model Despite contributing over 50% of the annual calories for humans [1] and 34% of the production for animal feed [2], little is known about fundamental hormone biology in monocot plants compared to greater advances with dicot plants, primarily Arabidopsis.

  • Peroxisomal Fatty Acid Beta-Oxidation in Relation to the Accumulation Of
    Peroxisomal fatty acid beta-oxidation in relation to the accumulation of very long chain fatty acids in cultured skin fibroblasts from patients with Zellweger syndrome and other peroxisomal disorders. R J Wanders, … , A W Schram, J M Tager J Clin Invest. 1987;80(6):1778-1783. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI113271. Research Article The peroxisomal oxidation of the long chain fatty acid palmitate (C16:0) and the very long chain fatty acids lignocerate (C24:0) and cerotate (C26:0) was studied in freshly prepared homogenates of cultured skin fibroblasts from control individuals and patients with peroxisomal disorders. The peroxisomal oxidation of the fatty acids is almost completely dependent on the addition of ATP, coenzyme A (CoA), Mg2+ and NAD+. However, the dependency of the oxidation of palmitate on the concentration of the cofactors differs markedly from that of the oxidation of lignocerate and cerotate. The peroxisomal oxidation of all three fatty acid substrates is markedly deficient in fibroblasts from patients with the Zellweger syndrome, the neonatal form of adrenoleukodystrophy and the infantile form of Refsum disease, in accordance with the deficiency of peroxisomes in these patients. In fibroblasts from patients with X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy the peroxisomal oxidation of lignocerate and cerotate is impaired, but not that of palmitate. Competition experiments indicate that in fibroblasts, as in rat liver, distinct enzyme systems are responsible for the oxidation of palmitate on the one hand and lignocerate and cerotate on the other hand. Fractionation studies indicate that in rat liver activation of cerotate and lignocerate to cerotoyl-CoA and lignoceroyl-CoA, respectively, occurs in two subcellular fractions, the endoplasmic reticulum and the peroxisomes but not in the mitochondria.

Substrate specificity was studied for chlorophyll (Chi) a, Chi b, pheophytin (Phe) a and Phe b, with K m values of 10.70, 4.04, 2.67 and 6.37 ^im respectively. Substrate inhibition was found for Phe b at concentrations higher than 5 ^m. Chlorophyllase action on Chi a ’ and Chi b' was also studied but no hydrolysis was observed, suggesting that the mechanism of action depends on the configuration at C-132 in the chloro­ phyll molecule, with the enzyme acting only on compounds with R132 stereochemistry. The effect of various metals (Mg2+, Hg2+, Cu2+, Zn2+, Co , Fe2+ and Fe3+) was also investigated, and a general inhibitory effect was found, this being more marked for Hg2+ and Fe2+. Func­ tional groups such as -SH and -S-S- seemed to participate in the formation of the enzyme- substrate complex. Chelating ion and the carbonyl group at C3 appeared to be important in substrate recognition by the enzyme.

  • Structure of Pigment Metabolic Pathways and Their Contributions to White Tepal Color Formation of Chinese Narcissus Tazetta Var

Received: 7 August 2017; Accepted: 4 September 2017; Published: 8 September 2017 Abstract: Chinese narcissus (Narcissus tazetta var. chinensis) is one of the ten traditional flowers in China and a famous bulb flower in the world flower market. However, only white color tepals are formed in mature flowers of the cultivated varieties, which constrains their applicable occasions. Unfortunately, for lack of genome information of narcissus species, the explanation of tepal color formation of Chinese narcissus is still not clear. Concerning no genome information, the application of transcriptome profile to dissect biological phenomena in plants was reported to be effective. As known, pigments are metabolites of related metabolic pathways, which dominantly decide flower color. In this study, transcriptome profile and pigment metabolite analysis methods were used in the most widely cultivated Chinese narcissus “Jinzhanyintai” to discover the structure of pigment metabolic pathways and their contributions to white tepal color formation during flower development and pigmentation processes.
