  1. Signal Transduction of Plant Hormone Ethylene Dr. Hongwei Guo Peking University June 22, 2006

  2. Plant Growth and Development • Highly plastic ----plants cannot run! • Perception of environmental signals involves multiple plant hormones • environmental signals: • light • gravity • temperature • water • nutrients • touch • Pathogens, etc

  3. H H C C H H Ethylene (C2H4) Plant hormones • Classical Five: • Auxins • Gibberellins (GAs) • Cytokinins • Abscisic acid (ABA) • Ethylene • Newly defined: • Brassinosteroids • Jasmonic acid (JA) • Salicylic acid (SA) • Nitric oxide (NO) The simplest molecule on the earth that has a biological function

  4. abscission senescence Ethylene can do more… --Germination --Senescence --Abscission --Nodulation --Stress tolerance --Pathogen defense pathogen defense

  5. A simple genetic systemArabidopsisseedling • Shortened root and hypocotyl • Swollen hypocotyl • Exaggerated apical hook …triple response… -C2H4 +C2H4

  6. Ethylene Response Mutants ctr ein wild type 5 ctr (constitutive triple response) 10 ein (ethylene insensitive) + C2H4 - C2H4

  7. ER cytoplasm nucleus EIL1 EIL1 A genetic model of ethylene signaling pathway

  8. SCFEBF1/2 EIN3 ethylene response A SCF complex degrades EIN3 protein 26S proteasome (degraded) EIN3 Ub E2 EBF1/2 ASK1 Rbx Cullin1 (Guo and Ecker, Cell 2003)
