Deletion of a Chaperonin 60β Gene Leads to Cell Death in the Arabidopsis lesion initiation 1 Mutant

Abstract: Lesion mimic mutants develop spontaneous cell death without pathogen attack. Some of the genes defined by these mutations may function as regulators of cell death, whereas others may perturb cellular metabolism in a way that leads to cell death. To understand the molecular mechanism of cell death in lesion mimic mutants, we isolated a lesion initiation 1 (len1) mutant by a T-DNA tagging method. The len1 mutant develops lesions on its leaves and expresses systemic acquired resistance (SAR). LEN1 was identified … Show more

“…In addition to their well-known functions of protein folding and protection, the chaperonin 60 proteins have also shown a range of intercellular signaling activities. In Arabidopsis, LEN1 was identified as encoding a chloroplast Cpn60 beta and the mutation of the LEN1 impairs molecular chaperone in chloroplasts, and which has lead to cell death [32].…”
