AtGRP5, a vacuole-located glycine-rich protein involved in cell elongation

Abstract: Although several glycine-rich protein (GRP) genes were isolated and characterized, very little is known about their function. The primary structure of AtGRP5 from Arabidopsis thaliana has a signal peptide followed by a region with high glycine content. In this work, green fluorescent protein fusions were obtained in order to characterize the sub-cellular localization of the AtGRP5 protein. The results indicated that this protein is the first described vacuolar GRP. Sense, antisense and RNAi transgenic A. thali… Show more

“…To confirm the subcellular localization of Dc AA5GT and Dg AA7GT, green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion constructs containing either the full-length or the predicted transit peptide sequences of Dc AA5GT and Dg AA7GT driven by cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 35S promoter were introduced into onion epidermal cells by microprojectile bombardment. We observed a close correspondence in the distribution pattern for Dc AA5GT-transit-peptide:GFP ( Figure 4A), Dg AA7GT-transitpeptide:GFP ( Figure 4B), and full-length-Dg AA7GT:GFP ( Figure 4D) with that of a Gly-rich protein of Arabidopsis (GRP5) that is normally located in the vacuoles ( Figure 4G) (Mangeon et al, 2009). The full-length-Dc AA5GT:GFP did not show strict localization of fluorescent signals to the vacuole but also had some signals in the cytosol ( Figure 4C).…”

“…They were proposed to function in cell elongation, plant defense, plant stress responses, flowering, and development, etc. (Fusaro et al, 2007;Fu et al, 2007;Kim et al, 2007;Streitner et al, 2008;Mangeon et al, 2009), likely due to the variation of their domain arrangements. Despite of all the efforts in characterizing the functions of plant GRPs, little is known about the function of the GR domain in these GRPs.…”

“…In the cells, the transit peptides of SCPL2, AA7BG-GT1, and AA7BG-GT2:GFP exhibited a similar pattern of fluorescence to a Gly-rich protein of Arabidopsis (GRP5) that is normally located in the vacuoles (see Supplemental Figure 6 online) (Mangeon et al, 2009). …”
