“…In addition to a tubby domain, most plant TLPs also have an F-box domain in corresponding regions (Gagne et al 2002). The TLP family has been studied in some plant species, such as Arabidopsis (Lai et al 2004) and rice (Liu 2008). However, few studies of TLP genes have been reported in maize.…”

Genome-wide identification and comparative analysis of the TUBBY-like protein gene family in maize

The evolutionary history of TUBBY-like proteins (TLPs), which contain a highly conserved tubby domain, can be traced to the early stages of eukaryote evolution, on account of the identification of this gene family in organisms from single-celled to multicellular eukaryotes. While genome-wide structural and evolutionary analyses of the entire TLP gene family have recently been reported in Arabidopsis and rice, little is known about TLP genes in maize. To gain insight into how TLP genes have evolved in maize, we conducted comprehensive analysis of the molecular evolution of TLP genes in this crop. A total of 15 TLP genes (ZmTLP1-15) were identified in maize by genome-wide screening. This family was classified into four subfamilies based on phylogenetic relationships, protein domains, and motif organization. Gene duplication and chromosomal location analysis indicated that segmental duplication has played a major role in the expansion of the maize TLP family. The ZmTLP genes exhibited differential expression profiles under ABA, NaCl, 42, 4°C, and PEG stress treatment. We performed microsynteny analysis across three gramineous species based on comparisons of the specific regions containing TLP genes, revealing numerous microsyntenic gene pairs among maize, rice, and sorghum, which suggests that the flanking regions of TLP genes may be derived from a common ancient Gramineae ancestor.

“…TUBBY-like proteins (TLPs) are present in all eukaryotes, from single-celled to multicellular organisms (Liu 2008). The typical TLP has an approximately 270-amino acid tubby domain at its C-terminus (Yang et al 2008), and most TLPs in plants also contain highly conserved F-box domains (Gagne et al 2002).…”

“…Boggon et al (1999) found that the Tubby protein is a bipartite transcription regulator and that its N-terminal segment is involved in modulating transcription. In plants, Tubby proteins contain a conserved F-box domain (Liu, 2008;Yang et al, 2008). Fbox proteins regulate diverse cellular processes, including cell cycle transition, transcriptional regulation, and signal transduction.…”

Differential expression of TLP, ERF1, and R2R3MYB in annual Medicago species under salinity conditions

ABSTRACT. The present study was conducted to evaluate the responses of three annual Medicago species (M. truncatula, M. laciniata, and M. polymorpha) to salinity. We analyzed publicly available microarray data in NCBI pertaining to salinity-response genes in M. truncatula. Our data search identified Tubby C2 (TLP) and ethylene responsive transcription factor 1 (ERF1) as genes that potentially respond to salinity. We evaluated morpho-physiological traits and the expression of the genes in three Medicago species that had been maintained under control and saline conditions. The analysis of morpho-physiological traits showed that M. polymorpha and M. laciniata were more tolerant to salinity than M. truncatula, as they had lower reductions in biomass and dry root weight and lower increases in anthocyanin concentration. The saline conditions caused a significant increase (P < 0.01) in the expression of TLP in all Medicago species, but caused a significant decrease 10152-10164 (2015) in the expression of ERF1. Considerable variation in anthocyanin concentrations was found among the three Medicago species. To investigate the cause of this variation, we examined the expression of R2R3MYB, a gene involved in the biosynthesis of anthocyanins. Our analysis showed that saline conditions induced high over-expression of R2R3MYB in all three Medicago spp. The high efficiency of the primer pairs used in qRT-PCR enabled us to compare the expression levels of each gene in the three species. We concluded that the more salt tolerant species showed higher expression of TLP and R2R3MYB under both control and salinity conditions.

“…Arabidopsis-Piriformospora indica interaction [16][17][18] In Arabidopsis, AtTLP9 acts in ABA signaling during germination and plays a role in responses to salt and drought stress. 17,19 Consistent with this, a TLP from chickpea was recently demonstrated to confer increased tolerance to salt, drought and oxidative stress when overexpressed in tobacco.…”

“…14,15 TLPs have been found in many eukaryotic species. 16 Although conservation of the Tubby domain in different organisms suggests important functions, little information is available for TLPs in plants. They are present in small gene families with Tubby-like proteins (TLPs) have been associated with hormone signaling and responses to abiotic and biotic stress in plants.…”
