Plant exocyst dependent secretory pathway and iron nutrition
 Batík, Adam ; Žárský, Viktor (advisor) ; Vaňková, Radomíra (referee)
Previous results from our lab suggested possible phenotypic deviation of a double T-DNA knock- out mutant of an EXOCYST subunit EXO70E2 and vacuolar transmembrane protein LAZ1H1 upon iron starvation. To confirm these preliminary results, single mutants were obtained, with EXO70E2 knock-out mutant being produced here using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Result did not confirm the previous findings in neither of the mutants tested (exo70e2, laz1h1, exo70e2/laz1h1 and exo70h4). This discrepancy is attributed to improper iron starvation protocol and different storage age of seeds used in the previously conducted experiments. Coumarins are synthetized and secreted from roots during iron starvation; protocol for their visualization was adopted and WT compared with mutants. No phenotypic deviations were observed in mutants. Pharmacological treatments of iron starved WT plants using BFA, wortmannin and concanamycin A did not suggest that endomembrane vesicle trafficking affect accumulation or secretion of coumarins. Previously published susceptibility of T-DNA knock-out mutant of EXO70E2 to drought stress was tested using CRISPR/Cas9 mutant produced here, the reported susceptibility was not confirmed. Upregulation of EXO70E2 mRNA upon UV exposure reported in eFP browser was also tested and not confirmed under...

Cell biology of iron transport in plants.
 Batík, Adam ; Žárský, Viktor (advisor) ; Tylová, Edita (referee)
Plants use iron as a cofactor of proteins used in photosynthetic systems, electron transport chain and many more. Iron bioavailability for plants in soil is low because it tends to oxidise and create insoluable compounds.For this reasonplants haveevolvedtwo distinct iron uptake mechanisms.Because of the iron toxicitycaused by production ofreactiveoxygen species via the Fenton reaction and the unspecific transport of metals other than iron, plants have to regulate cellular iron concentrationtightly.Theyhave evolved a complex system of signalling networks that has recently begun to uncover. In additionto the regulation ofiron uptake, the plant cell combats iron toxicity by sequestering iron into storage organelles and by chelating it. Iron is essential for seed sprouting but this work is focused on transport of iron into the plant from the soil,subcellulartransportandlongdistance transport ofironin the vasculature.
