Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using transgenic Arabidopsis harboring genomic MAP65-1-GFP gene, the expression of MAP65-1 was analyzed in the hypocotyl. The expression level in the growing region was high whereas that in basal region was low, indicating that the expression is regulated in relation to the cell elongation. The experiments using 5’region-truncated series suggested that the region from -1.1 to -0.7 kb mainly regulates the expression in the hypocotyl. The region involved in the expression responding to the magnitude of the gravity was not identified, because stable results were not obtained.
