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.
