Spermine either delays or promotes cell death in Nicotiana tabacum L. corolla depending on the floral developmental stage and affects the distribution of transglutaminase.

Only registered users can translate articles

The role of spermine (SM) was studied to verify if SM supplied to Nicotiana tabacum flower can modulate programmed cell death (PCD) of the corolla. SM has strong effects on the development and senescence of excised flowers despite its low physiological levels. The timing and duration of SM treatment

Spermine is a salicylate-independent endogenous inducer for both tobacco acidic pathogenesis-related proteins and resistance against tobacco mosaic virus infection

Only registered users can translate articles

Intercellular spaces are often the first sites invaded by pathogens. In the spaces of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV)-infected and necrotic lesion-forming tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) leaves, we found that an inducer for acidic pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins was accumulated. The induction activity

Transglutaminase activity during senescence and programmed cell death in the corolla of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) flowers.

Corolla life span of undetached flowers of Nicotiana tabacum was divided into stages from the closed corolla (stage 1) through anthesis (stage 5) to death (stage 9). Senescence began around stage 6 in the proximal part, concomitantly with DNA laddering. Nuclear blebbing, DNA laddering, cell wall

Changes in Amines and Biosynthetic Enzyme Activities in p-Fluorophenylalanine Resistant and Wild Type Tobacco Cell Cultures.

Only registered users can translate articles

The levels of free amines and the activities of their biosynthetic enzymes were measured in a p-fluorophenylalanine resistant Nicotiana tabacum L. cv Xanthi cell line (TX4) which accumulates high levels of cinnamoylamides, and a wild type cell line (TX1). Putrescine in TX1 and spermidine in TX1 and

Polyamines, hydroxycinnamoylputrescines, and root formation in leaf explants of tobacco cultivated in vitro: effects of the suicide inhibitors of putrescine synthesis.

Only registered users can translate articles

In vitro formation of roots is obtained directly, without intermediate growth of callus, from foliar explants of a tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plant cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium containing IAA. Auxin-induced root formation was accompanied by significant changes in

Polyamines inhibit NADPH oxidase-mediated superoxide generation and putrescine prevents programmed cell death induced by polyamine oxidase-generated hydrogen peroxide.

Our previous results indicate that during protoplast isolation an oxidative burst occurs [A.K. Papadakis and KA Roubelakis-Angelakis (1999) Plant Physiol 127:197-205] and that suppression of totipotency is correlated with reduced antioxidant activity and low redox state [A.K. Papadakis et al.

Elucidation of signaling molecules involved in ergosterol perception in tobacco.

Only registered users can translate articles

Ergosterol, a principal compound of the fungal plasma membrane, is regarded as a pathogen-associated molecular pattern. In the present study, the role of salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA) and spermine signaling pathways after ergosterol elicitation were evaluated. SA, JA and spermine

Dihydrocaffeoyl polyamines (kukoamine and allies) in potato (Solanum tuberosum) tubers detected during metabolite profiling.

Only registered users can translate articles

Four related phenolic amides previously undescribed from the species were revealed during metabolic profiling of potato (Solanum tuberosum) tubers. N(1),N(12)-Bis(dihydrocaffeoyl)spermine (kukoamine A) and N(1),N(8)-bis(dihydrocaffeoyl)spermidine were positively identified by comparison with

NtbZIP60, an endoplasmic reticulum-localized transcription factor, plays a role in the defense response against bacterial pathogens in Nicotiana tabacum.

Only registered users can translate articles

A spermine-based signal transduction pathway plays a defensive role against incompatible pathogens. We identified a novel spermine-responsive cDNA from Nicotiana tabacum that encodes a basic region/leucine zipper protein with a putative transmembrane domain. Identity to Arabidopsis thaliana AtbZIP60

Molecular cloning of plant spermidine synthases.

Four cDNAs for spermidine synthase (SPDS), which converts the diamine putrescine to the higher polyamine spermidine using decarboxylated S-adenosylmethionine as the co-factor, were isolated from Nicotiana sylvestris, Hyoscyamus niger, and Arabidopsis thaliana. When the N.sylvestris SPDS cDNA was

Up-regulation of Arabidopsis thaliana NHL10 in the hypersensitive response to Cucumber mosaic virus infection and in senescing leaves is controlled by signalling pathways that differ in salicylate involvement.

The Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heyhn. genome contains 45 genes that show substantial sequence similarity to the tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum L.) HIN1 (harpin-induced) gene and the Arabidopsis NDR1 (non-race-specific disease resistance) gene. Of these, the nine ( NHL1 to NHL3, NHL8 to NHL12 and NHL22)

Expression of a human S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase cDNA in transgenic tobacco and its effects on polyamine biosynthesis.

Only registered users can translate articles

S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (SAMDC; EC 4.1.1.50) is a key regulatory enzyme in the polyamine biosynthetic pathway. Numerous studies have shown that the enzyme activity and polyamine levels are generally correlated with cellular growth in plants, animals and bacteria. In order to gain more

alpha-dl-Difluoromethylornithine, a Specific, Irreversible Inhibitor of Putrescine Biosynthesis, Induces a Phenotype in Tobacco Similar to That Ascribed to the Root-Inducing, Left-Hand Transferred DNA of Agrobacterium rhizogenes.

alpha-dl-Difluoromethylarginine (DFMA) and alpha-dl-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), specific irreversible inhibitors of putrescine biosynthesis were applied to Nicotiana tabacum var. Xanthi nc during floral induction. DFMO, but not DFMA, induced a phenotype in tobacco that resembles the transformed

Binding of spermidine to a unique protein in thin-layer tobacco tissue culture.

Only registered users can translate articles

The mechanism by which spermidine induces the appearances of floral buds in thin-layer tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) tissue culture was studied by following the fate of the radioactive compound. [3H]Spermidine was taken up rapidly by the tissue, and after a brief lag, a portion was bound to

Polyamines stimulate non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll a fluorescence in Scenedesmus obliquus.

Only registered users can translate articles

Polyamines (PAs) are small metabolites that are produced and oxidized in chloroplasts with an obscure mode of action. Recently, we showed that qE is stimulated by PAs in higher plants (Nicotiana tabacum) and in genetically modified plants with elevated thylakoid-associated PAs (Ioannidis and
