Research Abstract |
The AS2/LOB-domain protein, ASYMMETRIC LEAVES2 (AS2), and nucleolar localized histone deacetylases, HDT1/2, are involved in the determination of leaf shape in Arabidopsis. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these phenomena are largely unknown. I investigated the functions of missense mutants of AS2 and HDT1/2 proteins. The missense mutants of AS2 revealed that the in vivo function of AS2 required the formation of hetero-tetramer including the N-termini of AS1 through the AS2/LOB-domain. The AS1-AS2 complex localizes the speckled bodies adjacent nucleoli, in which HDT1/2 localize. The analyses of HDT1/2 provide the further understanding of the mechanism underlying the synergistic interaction between the AS1-AS2 complex and HDT1/2.
