摘要：We have studied developmental and light regulation of mRNAs encoding a putative cell wall proline-rich protein (PvPRP1), cell wall glycine-rich proteins (GRPs), and cell wall hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs) in bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). Light increases the levels of these mRNAs 2- to 150-fold in highly spatially regulated patterns during seedling development. These mRNA changes include differential regulation of transcripts derived from the GRP and HRGP multigene families. In 6-day-old light-grown seedlings, the PvPRP1 and GRP1.0 mRNAs were most abundant in the apical region of hypocotyls, epicotyls, and roots. In contrast, several HRGP transcripts were most abundant in the mature region of hypocotyls and roots in light-grown seedlings. When etiolated 6-day-old seedlings were illuminated with white light for 8 hr, maximal accumulation of PvPRP1 and GRP1.0 mRNAs occurred in the apical hook, whereas HRGP and GRP1.8 mRNAs accumulated in the mature region of hypocotyls. Etiolated seedlings subjected to a pulse of red light accumulated PvPRP1, GRP, and HRGP mRNAs in the hypocotyls. Far-red light inhibited red light induction of these mRNAs, indicating a phytochrome-mediated process. The possible roles of PRPs, GRPs, and HRGPs in cell differentiation and photomorphogenesis are discussed.
