Modification of Phytohormone Response by a Peptide Encoded by ENOD40 of Legumes and a Nonlegume

Abstract: The gene ENOD40 is expressed during early stages of legume nodule development. A homolog was isolated from tobacco, which, as does ENOD40 from legumes, encodes an oligopeptide of about 10 amino acids. In tobacco protoplasts, these peptides change the response to auxin at concentrations as low as 10(-12) to 10(-16)M. The peptides encoded by ENOD40 appear to act as plant growth regulators.

“…How the early signaling events trigger the cortical cell divisions that form the prenodule is not known, but it is likely that changes in the relative levels or activities of auxin and cytokinins are involved. Indeed, one of the legume genes induced soon after rhizobial infection of roots, ENOD40, has recently been shown to encode a short peptide that modifies plant responses to auxin (van de Sande et al, 1996). It has even been suggested that Nod factors themselves may be related to plant hormones, and Long provides a thoughtful analysis of this somewhat contentious hypothesis.…”

“…This demonstrates that in addition to the epidermis and cortex, the pericycle can also respond to Nod factors. ENOD40, homologs of which have been found in nonlegumes, encodes a peptide that alters the response of plant cells to auxin (van de Sande et al, 1996). Therefore, it seems probable that this early nodulin plays a role in the induction of legume nodule primordium formation.…”

“…In plants, extracellular peptides, such as systemin, CLAVATA3, and ENOD40, may act as intercellular signals, regulating some important processes, e.g. wound defense reaction, maintenance of shoot apical meristem, and nodule formation (Pearce et al, 1993;Yang et al, 1993;van de Sande et al, 1996;Trotochaud et al, 2000). ExtCaM has been found in many plant species.…”
