Response of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii to different oxidative and electrophilic stress conditions
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Acclimation to singlet oxygen was shown to induce various oxidative stress response genes of which some were also strongly overexpressed in the singlet oxygen resistant mutant sor1. Because sor1 was also more tolerant to other oxidative and electrophilic stress conditions, and because many of the sor1 overexpressed genes are known to be involved in the detoxification of reactive electrophile species, the response of the C. reinhardtii wild-type strain to various oxidative and electrophilic stress conditions was determined. Therefore, cultures were exposed to the reactive oxygen species-producing photosensitizer neutral red, the organic hydroperoxide tert-butylhydroperoxide, the photosynthetic herbicide 2,5-dibromo-3-methyl-6-isopropyl-p-benzoquinone (DBMIB) and the lipophilic electrophile 2(E)-Hexenal for two hours and the global genetic response was analyzed. Cluster analysis revealed the most similar expression pattern between DBMIB and 2(E)-Hexenal and to a lower degree between NR and tBOOH. Still, there were many common induced genes including several of the oxidative stress response and detoxification genes overexpressed in the sor1 mutant.
