Expression

Organism Comment Expression
Oryza sativa Japonica Group in wild-type plants cold-acclimated at 4°C, the transcript levels of OsFAD8 increase significantly, and the expression levels increase in comparison to those of wild-type and of genes OsFAD7 and OsFAD3. OsFAD8 is a cold-inducible gene up

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction osfad8 knockout mutant plants exhibit significant alterations in fatty acid unsaturation for all four investigated plastidic lipid classes. During a 5-day acclimation period at 4°C, further changes in fatty acid unsaturation in both wild-type and mutant plants vary according to the type of lipid. The fluidity of the thylakoid membrane are altered significantly by both FAD8 mutation and cold acclimation, suggesting that factors other than FAD8 are involved in C18 fatty acid unsaturation and fluctuations in membrane fluidity. Similarly, significant changes are noted for both the mutant and wild-type samples in terms of their fatty acid compositions as well as activities related to photosystem (PS) I, PSII, and photoprotection. This includes the development of non-photochemical quenching and increased zeaxanthin accumulation. Despite the relatively small changes in fatty acid composition during cold acclimation, cold-inducible FAD8 knock-out mutants display strong differences in photoprotective activities and a further drop in membrane fluidity. The mutants are more sensitive than wild-type to short-term low-temperature stress that results in increased production of reactive oxygen species after 5 days of chilling. The levels of 18:3 are reduced by 20% in the fad8 knockout mutant compared to wild-type, while the levels of 18:2 are increased 2fold. Phenotype, overview Oryza sativa Japonica Group
