Cloned (Comment) Organism
zmrafs, recombinant overexpression of GFP-tagged enzyme in maize protoplasts with or without transcription factor ZmDREB1A, chromatin immunoprecipitation-quantitative PCR enzyme expression analysis and real-time RT-PCR analysis Zea mays

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information generation of two independent maize (Zea mays) zmrafs mutant lines, in which raffinose is completely abolished, the mutants are more sensitive to chilling stress and their net photosynthetic product (total soluble sugars and starch) accumulation is significantly decreased compared with controls after chilling stress. Construction of a mutant of the maize dehydration responsive element (DRE)-binding protein 1A (zmdreb1a), showing significantly decreased ZmRAFS expression and raffinose content compared with the control under chilling stress. Overexpression of maize ZmDREB1A in maize leaf protoplasts increases ZmDREB1A amounts, which consequently upregulate the expression of maize ZmRAFS and the Renilla luciferase (Rluc), that is controlled by the ZmRAFS promoter. Deletion of the single dehydration-responsive element (DRE) in the ZmRAFS promoter abolishes ZmDREB1A's influence on Rluc expression, while addition of three copies of the DRE in the ZmRAFS promoter dramatically increases Rluc expression when ZmDREB1A is simultaneously overexpressed Zea mays

Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Zea mays overexpression of maize ZmDREB1A in maize leaf protoplasts increases ZmDREB1A amounts, which consequently upregulate the expression of maize ZmRAFS and the Renilla luciferase (Rluc), that is controlled by the ZmRAFS promoter. Addition of three copies of the DRE in the ZmRAFS promoter dramatically increases Rluc expression when ZmDREB1A is simultaneously overexpressed. ZmDREB1A directly binds to the DRE motif in the promoter of ZmRAFS both in vitro and in vivo up

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction two independent maize (Zea mays) zmrafs mutant lines, in which raffinose is completely abolished, are more sensitive to chilling stress and their net photosynthetic product (total soluble sugars and starch) accumulation is significantly decreased compared with controls after chilling stress. In a mutant of the maize dehydration responsive element (DRE)-binding protein 1A (zmdreb1a), ZmRAFS expression and raffinose content are significantly decreased compared with the control under chilling stress. Overexpression of maize ZmDREB1A in maize leaf protoplasts increases ZmDREB1A amounts, which consequently upregulate the expression of maize ZmRAFS and the Renilla luciferase (Rluc), that is controlled by the ZmRAFS promoter. Deletion of the single dehydration-responsive element (DRE) in the ZmRAFS promoter abolishes ZmDREB1A's influence on Rluc expression, while addition of three copies of the DRE in the ZmRAFS promoter dramatically increases Rluc expression when ZmDREB1A is simultaneously overexpressed.
