Wasternack, C.; Atzorn, R.; Peña-Cortés, H.; Parthier, B.; Alteration of Gene Expression by Jasmonate and ABA in Tobacco and Tomato J. Plant Physiol. 147, 503-510, (1996) DOI: 10.1016/S0176-1617(96)80038-1

The synthesis of jasmonate-induced proteins in leaves of tobacco (Nicotiana plumbaginifolia) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) was studied in order to find a possible functional link in the actions of abscisic acid (ABA) and jasmonates. ABA-deficient mutants of tobacco (CKR1) and of tomato (sitiens, flacca), and their corresponding wild-types, were compared with respect to endogenous contents of jasmonates and ABA, and polypeptide and transcript patterns in water- or jasmonate-floated leaves, leaves stressed by floating on sorbitol, or by weak desiccation. Our results indicate that in tobacco the synthesis of proteins induced by jasmonate differed from those induced by ABA, whereas in tomato some jasmonate-induced proteins were also induced by ABA. The results provide further evidence that different signalling pathways exist for jasmonate/ABA-responsive gene expression in various plant species.

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.

Hause, B.; Demus, U.; Teichmann, C.; Parthier, B.; Wasternack, C.; Developmental and Tissue-Specific Expression of JIP-23, a Jasmonate-Inducible Protein of Barley Plant Cell Physiol. 37, 641-649, (1996) DOI: 10.1093/oxfordjournals.pcp.a028993

Developmental expression of a 23 kDa jasmonate-induced protein (JIP-23) of barley leaves (Hordeum vulgare cv. Salome) was studied by measuring the time-dependent accumulation of transcript and protein during germination. Tissue-specific expression of JIP-23 was analyzed immunocytochemically and by in situ hybridizations, respectively. During seed germination JIP-23 mRNA was found to accumulate transiently with a maximum at 32 h, whereas the protein was steadily detectable after the onset of expression. The occurrence of new isoforms of JIP-23 during germination in comparison to jasmonate-treated leaves suggests, that the JIP-23 gene family of barley is able to express different subsets of isoforms dependent on the developmental stage.JIP-23 and its transcript were found mainly in the scutellum, the scutellar nodule and in lower parts of the primary leaf of 6 days old seedlings. All these tissues exhibited high levels of endogenous jasmonates. In situ hybridization revealed specific accumulation of JIP-23 mRNA in companion cells of the phloem in the nodule plate of the scutellum. In accordance with that, JIP-23 was detected immunocytochemically in phloem cells of the root as well as of the scutellar nodule and in parenchymatic cells of the scutellum. The cell type-specific occurrence of JIP-23 was restricted to cells, which are known to be highly stressed osmotically by active solute transport. This observation suggests, that the expression of this protein might be a response to osmotic stress during development.
