Imaging of fluorescence emission signals from healthy and infected leaf tissues
BENEDIKTYOVÁ, Zuzana
Auto-fluorescence emission of plant tissues can be a powerful reporter on plant biochemistry and physiology since it originates in substances inherent to primary or secondary metabolism. Plant bodies contain a plethora of intrinsic fluorescent compounds emitting practically all wavelengths of visible light. Moreover, the spectrum of fluorescent reporter signals was recently extended by a variety of fluorescent proteins that provide a new tool to mark whole cells or sub-cellular structures, study protein localization and monitor gene expression and molecule interactions. The imaging of such fluorescence signals reveals a possibility to acquire the information from as many as millions of points simultaneously, in vivo and in a non-invasive way thereby preserving integrity of cells and whole organisms. Imaging is particularly suited to visualize heterogeneity such as a localized immune response to invading pathogens. It can be applied both at macro- as well as micro-scales in two and three dimensions. The recent advancement in microscopy, the multi-photon microscopy, has made possible to monitor fluorescence signals, such as NAD(P)H fluorescence from intact leaf interior, that have been hidden to single-photon techniques.
Functional analysis of the YCF 45 gene in procyclic \kur{Trypanosoma brucei}
TÝČ, Jiří
In this study was shown by RNA interference that YCF 45 gene of putative chloroplast origin is not essential for surviving of procyclic Trypanosoma brucei. Three different construct bearing HA-tagged YCF 45 protein that differs on their N-terminus were generated to reveal the localization of the protein in the cell. Spliced leader acceptor site of YCF 45 mRNA was identified and in comparison to annotated data new start codon was proposed. Fylogeny tree was made to shed some light on the origin of this gene.
