Abstract

Summary: A member of the R2R3‐MYB family of transcription factors was cloned from a cDNA library constructed from RNA isolated from differentiating pine xylem. This MYB, Pinus taeda MYB4 (Pt MYB4), is expressed in cells undergoing lignification, as revealed by in situ RT‐PCR. Electrophoretic mobility shift assays (EMSAs) showed that recombinant Pt MYB4 protein is able to bind to DNA motifs known as AC elements. AC elements are ubiquitous in the promoters of genes encoding lignin biosynthetic enzymes. Transcriptional activation assays using yeast showed that Pt MYB4 could activate transcription in an AC‐element‐dependent fashion. Overexpression of Pt MYB4 in transgenic tobacco plants altered the accumulation of transcripts corresponding to genes encoding lignin biosynthetic enzymes. Lignin deposition increased in transgenic tobacco plants that overexpressed Pt MYB4, and extended to cell types that do not normally lignify. Taken together, these findings are consistent with the hypothesis that Pt MYB4 is sufficient to induce lignification, and that it may play this role during wood formation in pine.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
