Analysis of the effect of CsHY2 mutation on the function of phys, the expression dynamics of cucumber PHYs genes (CsPHYA1, CsPHYA2, CsPHYB, CsPHYC, and CsPHYE). The 35S:CsHY2-EGFP plasmid construct is transformed into Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3101. Arabidopsis hy2-1 recessive homozygous mutants are transformed and the phenotype is analyzed. The expression level of CsHY2 in mutant is the highest in male and female flowers, followed in order by stem, true leaves, root, cotyledon, and fruit. There is no significant difference in CsHY2 expression in all these organs except cotyledons, true leaves, and stem between wild-type and mutant elh1 763754 1.3.7.4 additional information the flooding (rf) mutation is analysed in the tomato gene AUREA (AU), it not only led to leaf chlorosis but also causes the spontaneous formation of adventitious roots (ARs) on stems. Under flooding stress, au mutants extensively form ARs along the stem, while wild-type plants produce ARs only at the root-shoot junction. After submergence for 7 days, the resistant to flooding (rf) mutants show higher sensitivity to flooding regarding AR initiation compared to wild-type. Mutation of the AU gene appears to have minimal impact on tomato growth and fruit yield. The flooding resistance of rf mutants mainly results from the accumulation of heme and enhanced HO-1 activity, both of which function in the phytochrome synthesis pathway. In addition, the exchange of substances, including heme, between leaves and stems accounts for AR formation on stems 763128 1.3.7.4 N133 mutant produces only partial activity 687760 1.3.7.4 R200Q site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows 12.5% of wild-type activity 712484 1.3.7.4 R200Q/R264Q site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows 11.9% of wild-type activity 712484 1.3.7.4 R252Q mutant loses catalytic activity and the ability of substrate binding 687760 1.3.7.4 R264Q site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows 18.9% of wild-type activity 712484 1.3.7.4 V121A site-directed mutagenesis, single-turnover analysis demonstrates that the V121A mutated protein is slightly slower, although it produces 3Z/E-PPhiB on wild-type level, whereas no activity is detected in the V121A mutated protein in the steady-state analysis 763272
