Affymetrix Arabidopsis ATH1 Genome Array (ath1121501)
Description
Allantoin is a metabolic intermediate of purine catabolism that often accumulates in stressed plants. Recently, using Arabidopsis knockout mutants (aln) of ALLANTOINASE, we showed that this purine metabolite activates ABA production, thereby stimulating stress-related gene expression and enhancing seedling tolerance to abiotic stress. A detailed re-examination of the microarray data of an aln mutant (aln-1) not only confirmed increased expression of ABA-inducible genes, but also revealed altered expression of genes involved in jasmonic acid (JA) responses, likely under the control of MYC2, a master switch in the JA signaling pathway. Consistent with the transcriptome profiles, the aln-1 mutant displayed increased JA levels and enhanced responses to mechanical wounding and exogenous JA. Moreover, aln mutants demonstrated modestly increased susceptibility to hemibiotrophic and necrotrophic pathogens, probably reflecting the antagonistic action of MYC2 on the defense against these bacteria. Exogenously administered allantoin elicited the expression of JA-responsive genes including MYC2 in wild-type plants, supporting that allantoin might be responsible for the observed JA-related aln phenotypes. However, the effect of exogenous allantoin was suppressed by mutations deficient in bioactive JA (jar1-1), insensitive to JA (myc2-3) and deficient in ABA (aba2-1 and bglu18). The suppressive effect of jar1-1 and bglu18 mutations was further confirmed in the aln-1 background (jar1-1/aln-1 and bglu18/aln-1). These results indicate that allantoin can activate the MYC2-regulated JA signaling pathway through ABA production. Overall, this study provides evidence for the possible connection of purine catabolism with stress hormone homeostasis and signaling, and highlights the importance of allantoin in these interactions.

Description
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a biologically heterogeneous illness with a variable clinical course. Loss of chromosomal material on chromosome 13 at cytoband 13q14 is the most frequent genetic abnormality in CLL, but the molecular aberrations underlying del13q14 in CLL remain incompletely characterized. We analyzed 171 CLL cases for LOH and sub-chromosomal copy loss on chromosome 13 in DNA from FACS-sorted CD19+ cells and paired buccal cells using the Affymetrix XbaI 50K SNP-array platform. The resulting high-resolution genomic maps, together with array-based measurements of expression levels of RNA in CLL cases with and without del13q14 and Q-PCR-based expression analysis of selected genes support the following conclusions: i) del13q14 is heterogeneous and composed of multiple subtypes with deletion of Rb or the miR15a/16 loci serving as anatomic landmarks, respectively ii) del13q14 type Ia deletions are relatively uniform in length and extend from breakpoints close to the miR15a/16 cluster to a newly identified telomeric breakpoint cluster at ~50.2-50.5 Mb physical position iii) LATS2 RNA levels are ~2.6-2.8-fold lower in cases with del13q14 type I that do not delete Rb as opposed to all other CLL cases and iv) ~15% of CLL cases display marked reductions in miR15a/16 expression often but not invariably associated with bi-allelic miR15a/16 loss. This data should aid future investigations into biological differences imparted on CLL by different del13q14 subtypes including investigations into LATS2 as one of the genes found deregulated as part of del13q14.
