Question | Answer |
Important plant hormone classes + R location AGECBP | Auxins - IC Giberellins - IC Ethylene - IC Cytokinins - Cell surf. Brassinosteroids - Cell surf Photoreceptors - Cell surf BLUE IC Red |
Auxins | Natural plant auxin is indoleacetic acid Produced in seed embryo, meristems of apical buds and young leaves |
Auxin function | Stim. stem elongation, root growth + branching Enhances apical development Fruit development |
Transport | A.T. unidirectional shoot-base Polar transport. |
MOA (3) | Bind to Nuc. R, which is a ubiquitin L Binding promotes Ubiquitinylation + degradation of repressor protein Suppression of gene transcription is relieved |
Apical Dominance | Apex of stem has actively growing apical bud Ap. bud suppresses lat. bud development/ branching Caused by Ap. bud producing auxin in abundance |
Giberellins | Promote seed germination + growth of stems/roots (amylase/proteases) Flowering Break winter dormancy |
Transport | Cell to cell transport Can act locally (paracrine) or on distant sites |
MOA | Binds to cyto R, a ubiquitin L Hormone/R complex then translocates to nucleus Repressor protein is ubiquitinylated, degraded, and transcription proceeds |
Effects | Turns dwarf plants to normal Makes seedless grapes huge, removing seeds removes gibberellin makes fruit growth retarded |
Ethylene | Found in ripening fruit/ ageing leaves/flowers |
Functions | Promotes fruit ripening Blocks auxin and promotes leaf abscission + flower senescence Response to mechanical stress |
Transport | Pass through CW/air via diffusion |
MOA | Ethylene R in ER/Golgi membrane W/O ethylene, R +'s KB-> + molecule C - of ethylene R prevents KB action, allows C to + D which influences transcription |
Common plant kinase | Serine/threonine |
Cytokinins | All over the place the cheeky slags |
Functions | *** Promotes Cell / *** Inhibits leaf senescence Promotes auxiliary bud growth Chloro differentiation |
Transport | Long distance / paracrine |
MOA | + promotion of cytokinin-sensitive gene expression L binding = + of kinase dom. of AHK R (Arabdopsis histidine kinase) IM AHP protein +pi His of ARR TF ARR +, gene transcription occurs |
Regulating cell cycle w/ cytokinins | Histidine kinase use phosphate transfer |
Brassinosteroids | All over the place, slags as well |
Brassinosteroids function | Promote xylem differentiation Pt growth Seed germination Apical dominance Leaf senescence cell elongation Cell / in shoots |
Transport | Cell to cell, paracrine, don't travel |
MOA | Bind to cell surf R when has K activity Induces signal cascade Ultimately - an inhibitory K of a TF that activates brassinosteroid sensitive genes. (So quite selfish) This can +Pi Tyr/ser/threonine |
Photoreceptors-Blue light | Contain either cryptochromes/phototropin/zeaxathin as ph. pig Cell Surf R |
Red light | Phytochromes IC R |
Phytochrome | 2 SU that etect red light Portion w/ chromophore for light detection Kinase domain for catalysis |
MOA | Resides in cyto Detects red light Translocates to nucleus modulates gene transcription by Directly binding and + TF Indirectly by +Pi TF |
GPCR Plants vs. Humans | |
GCR1/GPA1 knockout mutation | Viable, but weird phenotype |
