Molecular Characterization of Cytokinin-Responsive Histidine Kinases in Maize. Differential Ligand Preferences and Response to cis-Zeatin
Open accessAbstract
Genes for cytokinin-responsive His-protein kinases (ZmHK1, ZmHK2, and ZmHK3a) were isolated from maize (Zea mays). Heterologous expression of each of the ZmHKs in Escherichia coli having the ΔrcsC and cps∷lacZ genetic background conferred cytokinin-inducibility of lacZ expression on the bacteria. In the recombinant E. coli system, ZmHK1 and ZmHK3a were more sensitive to free-base cytokinins than to the corresponding nucleosides; isopentenyladenine was most effective for ZmHK1, while ZmHK2 tended to be most sensitive to trans-zeatin and the riboside. In contrast to a known cytokinin receptor of Arabidopsis (AHK4/CRE1/WOL), all ZmHKs responded to cis-zeatin (cZ), which generally is believed to be inactive or only weakly active. In cultured maize cells, expression of ZmRR1, a cytokinin-inducible response regulator, was induced by cZ as well as by trans-zeatin. These results strongly suggest that maize cytokinin receptors differ in ligand preference, and that cZ is an active cytokinin at least in maize.

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.
