  1. Growth regulators Auxins Cytokinins Gibberellins Abscisic acid Ethylene Brassinosteroids All are small organics: made in one part, affect another part

  2. Auxin signaling Auxin receptors eg TIR1 are E3 ubiquitin ligases! Upon binding auxin they activate complexes targeting AUX/IAA proteins for degradation! AUX/IAA inhibit ARF transcription factors, so this turns on "early genes" Some early genes turn on 'late genes" needed for development

  3. Auxin signaling • ABP1 is a different IAA receptor localized in ER • Activates PM H+ pump by sending it to PM & keeping it there • Does not affect gene expression!

  4. Auxin & other growth regulators • Some "late genes" synthesize ethylene (normally a wounding response): how 2,4-D kills? • Auxin/cytokinin determines • whether callus forms roots or shoots

  5. Cytokinins Discovered as factors which induce cultured cells to divide Haberlandt (1913): phloem chemical stimulates division

  6. Cytokinins Discovered as factors which induce cultured cells to divide Haberlandt (1913): phloem chemical stimulates division van Overbeek (1941): coconut milk stimulates division

  10. Cytokinins Discovered as factors which induce cultured cells to divide Haberlandt (1913): phloem chemical stimulates division van Overbeek (1941): coconut milk stimulates division Miller… Skoog (1955): degraded DNA stimulates division! Kinetin was the breakdown product Derived from adenine Requires auxin to stimulate division

  11. Cytokinins Requires auxin to stimulate division Kinetin/auxin determines tissue formed (original fig)

  12. Cytokinins Requires auxin to stimulate division Kinetin/auxin determines tissue formed Inspired search for natural cytokinins Miller& Letham (1961) ± simultaneously found zeatin in corn Kinetintrans- Zeatin

  13. Cytokinins Miller& Letham (1961) ± simultaneously found zeatin Later found in many spp including coconut milk Kinetintrans-Zeatin

  14. Cytokinins • Miller& Letham (1961) ± • simultaneously found zeatin • Later found in many spp • including coconut milk • Trans form is more active, • but both exist (& work) • Many other natural & • synthetics have been identified

  15. Cytokinins Many other natural & synthetics have been identified Like auxins, many are bound to sugars or nucleotides

  16. Cytokinins Many other natural & synthetics have been identified Like auxins, many are bound to sugars or nucleotides Inactive, but easily converted

  17. Cytokinin Synthesis Most cytokinins are made at root apical meristem & transported to sinks in xylem

  18. Cytokinin Synthesis Most cytokinins are made at root apical meristem & transported to sinks in xylem Therefore have inverse gradient with IAA

  19. Cytokinin Synthesis Most cytokinins are made at root apical meristem & transported to sinks in xylem Therefore have inverse gradient with IAA Why IAA/CK affects development

  20. Cytokinin Synthesis Most cytokinins are made at root apical meristem & transported to sinks in xylem Therefore have inverse gradient with IAA Why IAA/CK affects development Rapidly metabolized by sink

  21. Cytokinin Effects Regulate cell division • Need mutants defective in CK metabolism or signaling to detect this in vivo

  22. Cytokinin Effects Regulate cell division • Need mutants defective in CK metabolism or signaling to detect this in vivo • SAM & plants are smaller when [CK]

  23. Cytokinin Effects • SAM & plants are smaller when [CK] • Roots are longer!

  24. Cytokinin Effects • Usually roots have too much CK: inhibits division! • Cytokinins mainly act @ root & shoot meristems

  25. Cytokinin Effects Cytokinins mainly act @ root & shoot meristems Control G1-> S & G2-> M transition
