  2. Introduction • Result • Discussion

  3. introduction • The functions of auxin • The mechanism of auxin signal transduction • Unknown

  4. TIR1 auxin SCFTIR1 a component of a multisubunit E3 ubiquitin ligase auxin receptor a large family of regulatory proteins AUX/IAA polar auxin transport ? Gene expression ARFs auxin response factors transcription factors G protein ? exogenous auxin concentration ?

  5. Result Identification of the aar1-1 mutant Root elongation, lateral root induction, and germination in aar1-1 are resistant specifically to 2,4-D Auxin-dependent gene expression and proteolysis in aar1-1 Uptake and metabolism of 2,4-D are unaltered in aar1-1 At4g13520 mediates PCIB and 2,4-D responsiveness At4g13520 encodes a small, acidic protein of unknown function

  6. Result Identification of the aar1-1 mutant grow under PCIB (p-chlorophenoxyisobutyric acid) select the one with longer root re-screen after several generations of selfing get antiauxin resistant1 (aar1-1) backcrossing with WT and selfing to get F2 3:1

  7. 10-day-old light-grown seedlings exposed to 20 uM PCIB 11-day-old light-grown seedlings. Figure 1. Photographs illustrating seedling phenotypes of wild-type (WT) and aar1-1.

  8. Result 2.Root elongation in aar1-1 are resistant specifically to 2,4-D Figure 2. Root elongation versus concentration of IAA and 2,4-D. Conclusion: For root growth, aar1-1 responds like wild-type to IAA but is resistant to 2,4-D.

  9. Result 3. Auxin-dependent gene expression and proteolysis in aar1-1 Figure 3. DR5:GUS expression in wild-type and aar1-1 in response to IAA and 2,4-D. Seedlings were exposed to the auxins in liquid for 6 h. Conclusion: IAA stimulated DR5:GUS expression similarly in both genotypes, whereas 2,4-D at all concentrations was less effective in aar1-1 compared to the wild-type.

  10. Figure 4. Real-time PCR analysis of the expression of the IAA11gene in wildtype and aar1-1. Conclusion: AAR1 is a component of a response pathway that recognizes 2,4-D specifically

  11. Result 4. Uptake and metabolism of 2,4-D are unaltered in aar1-1 Conclusion: The accumulation of 2,4-D was indistinguishable in wild-type and aar1-1 .

  12. Figure 6. Metabolism of 2,4-D in wild-type and aar1-1. Conclusion: There was no change in the amount of radioactivity in any of the three resolved fractions, with the great majority remaining unmetabolized (fraction C), suggesting that the metabolism of 2,4-D is not altered in aar1-1.

  13. Result 5. At4g13520 mediates PCIB and 2,4-D responsiveness Figure 7. Maps of the aar1 locus and of constructs used for complementation. 1. The region deleted in aar1-1 is indicated by the red box. 2. The structure of the enhancer-trap insertion in aar1-2 is shown. 3. Annotated open reading frames are shown as black boxes.

  14. Construct Transfection Expression in aar1 X 2,4-D resistant √ 2,4-D response

  15. The RNAi results, taken together with the complementation and the isolation of aar1-2, indicate that At4g13520 confers sensitivity to PCIB and 2,4-D. Figure 9. RNAi experiments.

  16. Result 6. At4g13520 encodes a small, acidic protein of unknown function Figure 10. Alignment of putative SMAP1 homologues.

  17. Discussion Collectively, these results indicate that the auxin transport machinery functions as normal in this mutant, and the specific resistance of aar1 towards 2,4-D and PCIB seems not to be due to an alteration in transport of these compounds. The aar1 mutant and the SMAP1gene provide genetic evidence that 2,4-D has a distinct response pathwayfrom IAA. SMAP1 may be an accessory protein that stabilizes the auxin signaling complex, and 2,4-D action in this complex is more sensitive to loss of SMAP1 than is IAA action.
