JAZ在园艺植物生长发育中的调控作用

Regulatory roles of JAZ in the growth and development of horticultural plants

摘要:

茉莉酸(jasmonic acid,JA)是一种普遍存在的植物激素，对植物生长发育具有多种调节作用。茉莉酸ZIM结构域(jasmonate ZIM-domain,JAZ)蛋白是JA信号转导途径的关键调节因子，参与植物的多种生物学过程，如花青素积累、开花时间、次生代谢物合成及其他发育过程，也是许多调控信号网络的重要组成部分。JAZ基因家族是植物特有的TIFY家族中的一员，目前已在多种园艺植物中对JAZ家族进行了全基因组鉴定。本文对园艺植物中JAZ蛋白(JAZs)的研究现状进行了回顾和总结，为进一步阐明植物JAZ基因家族的重要生物学功能及调控网络提供了参考。

Abstract:

Jasmonic acid (JA) is a common plant hormone with regulatory effects on plant growth and development. The jasmonate ZIM-domain (JAZ) proteins (JAZs), as key regulators in the JA signaling pathway, are involved in multiple biological processes such as anthocyanin accumulation, flowering time modulation, and secondary metabolite synthesis in plants. JAZs are essential components of many regulatory signaling networks. The JAZ genes, members of the plant-specific TIFY family, have been identified in the genomes of a variety of horticultural plants. Here, we summarized the research progress in the roles of JAZs in horticultural plants, aiming to give insights into the further study of the biological functions and regulatory networks of JAZ genes in plants.
