Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Aromatic amino acid L-DOPA acts as an allelochemical in rhizosphere to cause the growth inhibition of other organisms. In this study, we investigated the role of a rhizospheric bacterium Pseudomonas putida for plant-microbe interaction via control of the concentration of L-DOPA. P. putida harbors aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC) which specifically catalyzes the reaction converting L-DOPA into dopamine, through this reaction the allelopathy of L-DOPA is reduced. DNA microarray analysis revealed that only the expression of the AADC structural gene was drastically induced in the presence of L-DOPA, indicating the specific role of this bacterium through responding to L-DOPA. In addition, we obtained the candidate ORFs with unknown functions possibly encoding the specific factors regulating the AADC induction. Based on these results, we could expand the grasp of AADC-mediated symbiosis between P. putida and plant.
