The octadecanoid signalling pathway in plants mediates a response to ultraviolet radiation

Abstract: Many plant genes that respond to environmental and developmental changes are regulated by jasmonic acid, which is derived from linolenic acid via the octadecanoid pathway. Linolenic acid is an important fatty-acid constituent of membranes in most plant species and its intracellular levels increase in response to certain signals. Here we report that irradiation of tomato leaves with ultraviolet light induces the expression of several plant defensive genes that are normally activated through the octadecanoid pat… Show more

“…In human cells, cdc25 is also involved in the response to UV-mediated DNA damage in a p53-independent pathway, where DNA damage induces S-phase arrest via activation of Chk1 kinase, which phosphorylates cdc25A and targets it for proteasome degradation (Mailand et al, 2000). In plant cells, there is growing evidence for the role of jasmonates in UV response (Conconi et al, 1996). Some of the genes induced by jasmonates are common for UV and pathogen response, such as chalcone synthase, Phe ammonia lyase in parsley and Arabidopsis (Longemann et al, 1995;Long and Jenkins, 1998), and polyphenol oxidase, Leu aminopeptidase, Thr deaminase, and proteinase inhibitors in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) plants (Conconi et al, 1996).…”

UV exposure cannot induce mRNA expression of those genes in the tomato JL-5 mutant, defective in jasmonate synthesis, suggesting the requirement for octadecanoid compounds for a proper response (Conconi et al, 1996).…”

“…The systemin signaling pathway exhibits several analogies to the animal inflammatory response such as systemin perception by a membrane-bound receptor and activation of a MAPK and a phospholipase A 2 (17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22). UV-C radiation (Ͻ280 nm) affects the wound response in tomato plants by inducing the synthesis of proteinase inhibitors (23). Proteinase inhibitors play a role in resistance of plants to herbivorous insects.…”

“…P lants typically respond to environmental stress such as insect herbivory, mechanical damage, and ultraviolet (UV) irradiation by inducing defense-related proteins (1,2). Among these proteins, proteinase inhibitors I (Inh I) and II (Inh II) isolated from potato leaves are two well-characterized chymotrypsin inhibitors.…”
