Identifying novel elements and regulators in auxin-dependent gene expression
2020
Novikova, Daria D.
Auxin is a key phytohormone which controls plant growth and development and many other related processes. Hormones are signalling molecules which regulate different processes via influencing the expression of thousands of genes, auxin is not an exception. The auxin signalling pathway was studied in detail and the main involved proteins-interplayers are already known, however, this knowledge is not sufficient to explain the diversity and specificity of auxin-mediated plant’s reactions. In our study we developed a bioinformatics tool to identify another potentially involved in auxin proteins. With that tool we predicted a number of potential interplayers and performed experimental verification. Appeared to be that specificity is provided by the involvement of different proteins in the control of different processes.
