Leopold, J.; Hause, B.; Lehmann, J.; Graner, A.; Parthier, B.; Wasternack, C.; Isolation, characterization and expression of a cDNA coding for a jasmonate-inducible protein of 37 kDa in barley leaves Plant Cell Environ. 19, 675-684, (1996) DOI: 10.1111/j.1365-3040.1996.tb00402.x

In barley leaves, there is a dramatic alteration of gene expression upon treatment with jasmonates leading to the accumulation of newly formed proteins, designated as jasmonate‐inducible proteins (JIPs). In the present study, a new jasmonate‐inducible cDNA, designated pHvJS37, has been isolated by differential screening of a γgt10 cDNA library constructed from mRNA of jasmonate‐treated barley leaf segments. The open reading frame (ORF) encodes a 39‐9 kDa polypeptide which cross‐reacts with antibodies raised against the in vivo JIP‐37. The hydropathic plot suggests that the protein is mainly hydrophilic, containing two hydrophilic domains near the C‐terminus. Database searches did not show any sequence homology of pHv.JS37 to known sequences. Southern analysis revealed at least two genes coding for JIP‐37 which map to the distal portion of the long arm of chromosome 3 and are closely related to genes coding for JIP‐23. The expression pattern of the JIP‐37 genes over time shows differential responses to jasmonate, abscisic acid (ABA), osmotic stress (such as sorbitol treatment) and desiccation stress. No expression was found under salt stress. From experiments using an inhibitor and intermediates of jasmonate synthesis such as α‐linolenic acid and 12‐oxophytodienoic acid, we hypothesize that there is a stress‐induced lipid‐based signalling pathway in which an endogenous rise of jasmonate switches on JIP‐37 gene expression. Using immunocytochemical techniques, JIP‐37 was found to be simultaneously located in the nucleus, the cytoplasm and the vacuoles.

Wasternack, C.; Atzorn, R.; Leopold, J.; Feussner, I.; Rademacher, W.; Parthier, B.; Synthesis of jasmonate-induced proteins in barley (Hordeum vulgare) is inhibited by the growth retardant tetcyclacis Physiol. Plant. 94, 335-341, (1995) DOI: 10.1111/j.1399-3054.1995.tb05320.x

BarJey leaf segments treated with jasmonate respond with the synthesis of specific proseins, referred to as jasmonate‐induced proteins (JIPs). Application of abscisic acid (ABAl also induced JIP synthesis (Weidhase et al. 1987). In this study the effects of inhibitors on sorbitol‐induced increases of endogenous jasmonates and ABA were investigated. The promotion of jasmonates by sorbitol was inhibited by the growth retardant tetcyclacis at concentrations as low as 1 ftM. In parallel with the decrease of jasmonates, JIP gene expression was reduced as reflected by a decline in the level of a 23‐kDa protein UIP‐23) and mRNAs of JIP‐6 and JIP‐23. 12‐Oxo‐phytodienoic acid, an inlermediale in the lipoxygenase (LOX) pathway leading to jasmonic acid was able to overcome the inhibition by tetcyclacis and increases both the endogenous jasmonate content and transcript accumulation. This suggests that tetcyclacis acts upstream of 12‐oxo‐phytodienoic acid and in keeping with this proposal, an increase in relative LOX activity was detected after tetcyclacis treatment. Although tetcyclacis was shown to inhibit the degradation of ABA to phaseic acid, its effect on jasmonate synthesis is much more pronounced.

Lehmann, J.; Atzorn, R.; Brückner, C.; Reinbothe, S.; Leopold, J.; Wasternack, C.; Parthier, B.; Accumulation of jasmonate, abscisic acid, specific transcripts and proteins in osmotically stressed barley leaf segments Planta 197, 156-192, (1995) DOI: 10.1007/BF00239952

The accumulation of abundant proteins and their respective transcripts, induced by 10−4 M cisabscisic acid or 10−5 M jasmonic acid methyl ester, was studied in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) leaf segments and compared to that resulting from osmotic stress caused by floating the segments on solutions of sorbitol, glucose, polyethyleneglycol (PEG)-6000 or NaCl. Osmotic stress or treatment with abscisic acid led to the synthesis of novel proteins which were identical to jasmonateinduced proteins (JIPs) with respect to immunological properties and molecular masses. The most prominent polypeptides were characterized by molecular masses of 66, 37 and 23 kDa and were newly synthesized. Whereas sorbitol, mannitol, sucrose, glucose and PEG provoked the synthesis of JIPs, 2deoxyglucose and NaCl did not. We provide evidence that the synthesis of JIPs induced by osmotic stress is directly correlated with a preceding rise in endogenous jasmonates. These jasmonates, quantified by an enzyme immunoassay specific for (−)jasmonic acid and its aminoacid conjugates, increased remarkably in leaf segments treated with sorbitol, glucose or other sugars. In contrast, no increase in jasmonates could be observed in tissues exposed to salts (NaCl). The results strengthen the hypothesis that the accumulation of jasmonates, probably by de-novo synthesis, is an intermediate and essential step in a signalling pathway between (osmotic) stress and activation of genes coding for polypeptides of high abundance.
