ABSTRACT: Red light can affect a variety of responses in Arabidopsis. We characterize the early gene expression patterns of roots exposed to 1 hour of red light. Early genes indicate elements involved in photomorphogenesis, chloroplast development, PAL pathways, root hair development are regulated by 1 hour of red light We used microarrays to detail the gene expression underlying the effects of red light on roots.

Experiment Overall Design: 7 Day dark-grown 1 cm Arabidopsis root tips were harvested for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays. We pooled samples from several Petri plates for each experiment to obtain enough RNA for arrays. Three experiments were performed. Treatment 1 hour of red light 630 nm (max) and dark controls
Project description:Red light can affect a variety of responses in Arabidopsis. We characterize the early gene expression patterns of seedlings exposed to 1 hour of red light using a small sized sample of 5, 7-day-old seedlings and also performed dark controls. Methods that were developed for tissue extraction and labeling for microarrays were tested using these samples Keywords: 1 time point

Project description:PIF3 plays a role as repressor of photomorphogenesis in darkness. To identify PIF3-regulated genes that might be implementing this action, we have performed whole-genome expression analysis in the pif3 mutant. Seeds were surface-sterilized and plated on GM medium without sucrose, stratified at 4ºC in the dark for 4 days, exposed to white light for 3 hours to induce germination, and placed in a growth chamber at 21ºC in darkness for 4 days (D0h) and 4 days and 1 hour (D1h). For Rc treatments seedlings were moved to Rc growth chambers at 21ºC for 1 (R1h) and 18 (R18h) hours.
Project description:The mRNA expression profiles of the wild type, phyB and phyAB mutants were analyzed with darkness or 1 hour red light treatment. Results provide insight into the role of red-light and phytochromes in gene expression.
Project description:Analysis of etiolated seedlings exposed for 1hr to red light. Phytochromes are red/far-red light receptors, palying important roles in photomorphogenesis. Results suggest that red light and phytochromes regulate a set of genes' expression in seedlings.
Project description:The mRNA expression profiles of the WT and b''ab''b were analyzed in 1 hour 8 μmol/m2s red-light exposure and darkness after 4-day dark-grown. The gene expression changes was analyzed and compared between dark and red-light treated samples.

Project description:Light initiates the seedling deetiolation transition by promoting major changes in gene expression mainly regulated by phytochrome (phy) photoreceptors. During the initial dark-to-light transition, phy photoactivation induces rapid changes in gene expression that eventually lead to the photomorphogenic development. Recent reports indicate that this process is achieved by phy-induced degradation of Phy-Interacting bHLH transcription Factors (PIFs) PIF1, PIF3 PIF4 and PIF5, which are partly redundant constitutive repressors of photomorphogenesis that accumulate in darkness. In order to test whether light/phy-regulated gene expression occurs through these PIFs, we have performed whole-genome expression analysis in the pif1pif3pif4pif5 quadruple mutant (pifq). Wild-type and pifq mutant seeds were plated on GM medium without sucrose at room temperature. During this procedure the seeds were routinely exposed to white light (WL) for a total of 1.5 hours after imbibition. Seeds were then stratified for 5 days at 4ºC in darkness, induced to germinate with a 5-min red pulse (Rp) (46 μmol/m2/s) and then incubated in the dark for 3h at 21°C before exposure to a terminal 5-min far red pulse (FRp) (58 μmol/m2/s) to suppress pseudo-dark effects. Seeds were then placed in either dark (D) or constant red light (Rc) (6.7 μmol/ m2/s) at 21°C for 45h (2d-old seedlings). Alternatively, 2d-old dark-grown seedlings were treated with 1h of red light (R1) (7.5 μmol/m2/s). Seed samples were harvested after stratification (5d stratified seeds).
Project description:FAR-RED ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 3 (FHY3) and its homolog FAR-RED IMPAIRED RESPONSE 1 (FAR1) are two transposase-derived transcription factors initially identified as the key components in phytochrome A signaling and recently shown to function in the circadian clock. However, whether FHY3 and FAR1 are involved in other processes of plant development remains largely unknown. Here, we explored chromatin immunoprecipitation-based sequencing (ChIP-seq) analysis to identify 1745 and 1171 FHY3 direct binding target genes in darkness and far-red light conditions, respectively in the Arabidopsis thaliana genome. This analysis revealed that FHY3 preferentially binds to the gene promoters through the previously identified typical FHY3/FAR1 binding motif. Interestingly, FHY3 also binds to two novel motifs in the 178-bp repeats of the Arabidopsis centromere regions in vivo. Comparison between the ChIP-seq and microarray data indicates that FHY3 regulates the expression of 196 and 85 genes in dark and far-red respectively by directly binding to their promoters. FHY3 also co-regulates a number of common target genes with PHYTOCHROME INTERACTING FACTOR 3-LIKE 5 (PIL5) and ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5 (HY5). Moreover, our genome-wide identification of FHY3 direct target genes ultimately led to the discovery and validation of a new role of FHY3 in controlling chloroplast development, by directly activating the expression of ACCUMULATION AND REPLICATION OF CHLOROPLASTS5 (ARC5), a key gene regulating chloroplast constriction and division. Taken together, our data suggest that FHY3 is involved in regulating multiple facets of plant development, thus providing new insights into the functions of this type of transposase-derived transcription factors.
