Modulation of Cell Proliferation by Heterotrimeric G Protein in Arabidopsis
Hemayet Ullah,1Jin-Gui Chen,1Jeff
C. Young,2*Kyung-Hoan Im,1Michael R. Sussman,2Alan M. Jones1
The subunit of a prototypical heterotrimeric
GTP-binding protein (G protein), which is encoded by a single gene
(GPA1) inArabidopsis, is a modulator of plant
cell proliferation. gpa1null mutants have reduced cell
division in aerial tissues throughoutdevelopment. Inducible
overexpression of GPA1 in Arabidopsis confersinducible ectopic cell division. GPA1 overexpression in
synchronizedBY-2 cells causes premature advance of the nuclear cycle
and thepremature appearance of a division wall. Results from loss offunction and ectopic expression and activation of GPA1
indicatethat this subunit is a positive modulator of cell division inplants.
