CHILLING SENSITIVITY IN PLANTS AND CYANOBACTERIA: The Crucial Contribution of Membrane Lipids

Nishida, I., Murata, N.·1996·Annual Review of Plant Physiology and Plant Molecular Biology

Abstract

▪ Abstract The contribution of membrane lipids, particularly the level of unsaturation of fatty acids, to chilling sensitivity of plants has been intensively discussed for many years. We have demonstrated that the chilling sensitivity can be manipulated by modulating levels of unsaturation of fatty acids of membrane lipids by the action of acyl-lipid desaturases and glycerol-3-phosphate acyltransferase. This review covers recent studies on genetic manipulation of these enzymes in transgenic tobacco and cyanobacteria with special emphasis on the crucial importance of the unsaturation of membrane lipids in protecting the photosynthetic machinery from photoinhibition under cold conditions. Furthermore, we review the molecular mechanism of temperature-induced desaturation of fatty acids and introduce our hypothesis that changes in the membrane fluidity is the initial event of the expression of desaturase genes.

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.
