PG - 35-48 LID - 10.1111/j.1469-8137.2010.03581.x [doi] AB - The repertoire of heterotrimeric G-proteins in plant species analyzed thus far is simple, with the presence of only two possible canonical heterotrimers in Arabidopsis and rice vs hundreds in animal systems. We assessed whether genome duplication events have resulted in the multiplicity of G-protein in plant species like soybean that would increase the complexity of G-protein networks. We identified and amplified four Galpha, four Gbeta and two Ggamma proteins, analyzed their expression profile by quantitative PCR during different developmental stages. We purified the four Galpha proteins and analyzed their guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP)-binding and GTPase activity. We performed yeast-based interaction analysis to assess the interaction specificity of different G-protein subunits. Our results show that all 10 G-protein genes are retained in the soybean genome and ubiquitously expressed. The four Galpha proteins seem to be plasma membrane-localized. The G-protein genes have interesting expression profiles during seed development and germination. The four Galpha proteins form two distinct groups based on their GTPase activity. Yeast-based interaction analyses predict that the proteins interact in most of the possible combinations, with some degree of interaction specificity between duplicated gene pairs. This research identifies the most elaborate heterotrimeric G-protein network known to date in the plant kingdom. CI - (c) 2010 The Authors. New Phytologist (c) 2010 New Phytologist Trust.
