Úloha fosfolipáz D a lipid fosfát fosfatáz v regulaci buněčné morfogeneze rostlin

Bezvoda, Radek

of the thesis The presented work explores the function and regulation of intracellular signaling that utilizes phospholipase D (PLD) and phosphatidic acid (PA), especially in the context of cellular morphogenesis of plants. PLDs cleave membrane phospholipids to phosphatidic acid, which has important biophysical and signaling role in many contexts, such as stress response, regulation of cytoskeletal dynamics and vesicular transport. Vesicular transport is essential in focused tip growth of plant pollen tubes and root hairs. Part of the work deals with NADPH oxidases, that are an emerging counterpart of PLD/PA signaling. Tobacco pollen tubes served as the main experimental model, as it enables assessing of changes in secretory pathway after pharmacological or genetic treatments. A technique utilizing antisense oligonucleotides was used for selective knock-down of PLD isoforms, NADPH oxidase and newly studied family of lipid phosphate phosphatases (LPPs) in pollen tubes. This enabled to assess functions of individual isoforms. For studying of selected gene families, various bioinformatic tool were utilized, such as dendrogram construction, analysis of available expression data and creating of virtual proteome. These tools together enabled to select potentially important genes for further experimental...
