Thioredoxin DCC1 regulates shoot regeneration through modulating multiple genes expression by RNA-seq analyses in Arabidopsis
The capacity of plant regeneration in different ecotypes of Arabidopsis largely varies. However, the mechanism underlying this process remains exclusive. Here, we identified a critical thioredoxin gene DCC1 in determining natural variation for shoot regeneration in Arabidopsis. Functional loss of DCC1 resulted in the repression of shoot regeneration. DCC1 encodes a thioredoxin, which was localized in mitochondria. DCC1 directly interacted with CARBONIC ANHYDRASE 2 (CA2) to regulate the mitochondrial respiratory complex ? activity and mediate the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) level. Defects of DCC1 or CA2 caused the increased ROS level. To understand the regulatory mechanism of DCC1-mediated ROS in shoot regeneration, we analyzed the transcript levels of wild type Col-0 and the mutant dcc1 calli during shoot regeneration by RNA-seq. Three biological repeats of wild type Co-0 and the mutant dcc1 calli were used for RNA sequencing. Total RNAs were isolated from the calli of wild type Col-0 and the mutant dcc1 cultured on shoot-induction medium. The RNA-seq was performed using the Illumina Hiseq 2500. The raw reads were aligned to the genome sequences of TAIR10 using Tophat2 software. The gene expression levels were measured in FPKM, and many critical genes were identified to be involved in shoot regeneration.
