| 1 | Simultaneously disrupting AtPrx2,AtPrx25 and AtPrx71 alters lignin content and structure in Arabidopsis stem显示文摘Plant class III heme peroxidases catalyze lignin polymerization. Previous reports have shown that at least three Arabidopsis thaliana peroxidases, At Prx2, At Prx25 and At Prx71,are involved in stem lignification using T-DNA insertion mutants,atprx2, atprx25, and atprx71. Here, we generated three double mutants, atprx2/atprx25, atprx2/atprx71, and atprx25/atprx71,and investigated the impact of the simultaneous de ficiency of these peroxidases on lignins and plant growth. Stem tissue analysis using the acetyl bromide method and derivatization followed by reductive cleavage revealed improved lignin characteristics, such as lowered lignin content and increased arylglycerolb-aryl(b-O-4) linkage type, especially b-O-4 linked syringyl units, in lignin, supporting the roles of these genes in lignin polymerization. In addition, none of the double mutants oexhibited severe growth defects, such as shorter plant stature, dwar fing, or sterility, and their stems had improved cell wall degradability. This study will contribute to progress in lignin bioengineering to improve lignocellulosic biomass. | Jun Shigeto Yoshitaka Itoh Sakie Hirao Kaori Ohira Koki Fujita Yuji Tsutsumi | 2015 | Journal of Integrative Plant Biology2015，57，4： | 7 |
