    Abstract "The application of plant chemical biology is currently limited to specialized subfields of plant research. By examining how chemical biology can be applied to study plant biology, Plant Chemical Biology illustrates how chemical biology is a means to identify small molecules that can be used to identify the targets of currently used herbicides, as well as to develop new herbicides or plant growth regulators. The author introduces researchers and graduate students to the chemical biology toolbox required to perform successful chemical biology studies. The text also examines several chemical biology studies to show how they allowed novel insights into the field of plant physiology and plant cellular processes"--Provided by publisher.

    Abstract A plant's roots system determines both the capacity of a sessile organism to acquire nutrients and water, as well as providing a means to monitor the soil for a range of environmental conditions. Since auxins were first described, there has been a tight connection between this class of hormones and root development. Here we review some of the latest genetic, molecular, and cellular experiments that demonstrate the importance of generating and maintaining auxin gradients during root development. Refinements in the ability to monitor and measure auxin levels in root cells coupled with advances in our understanding of the sources of auxin that contribute to these pools represent important contributions to our understanding of how this class of hormones participates in the control of root development. In addition, we review the role of identified molecular components that convert auxin gradients into local differentiation events, which ultimately defines the root architecture.

    Abstract The plant hormone auxin promotes cell expansion. Forty years ago, the acid growth theory was proposed, whereby auxin promotes proton efflux to acidify the apoplast and facilitate the uptake of solutes and water to drive plant cell expansion. However, the underlying molecular and genetic bases of this process remain unclear. We have previously shown that the SAUR19-24 subfamily of auxin-induced SMALL AUXIN UP-RNA (SAUR) genes promotes cell expansion. Here, we demonstrate that SAUR proteins provide a mechanistic link between auxin and plasma membrane H

    Abstract Auxins, typified by IAA, are a class of plant hormones involved in a wide array of processes including cell division, cell elongation, tissue patterning, phototropism, gravitropism and root development. Despite recent descriptions of the machinery involved in auxin transport and perception, additional regulatory mechanisms and components remain to be identified and characterized. Chemical genetics has proven to be a valuable means by which to investigate the auxin response pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana. A screen for small molecules that block auxin signaling was performed previously, leading to the characterization of four compounds with this inhibitory activity. Here, we have synthesized various analogs of one of these molecules, compound A, a furyl acrylate ester of a thiadiazole heterocycle. The biological activity of these derivatives was initially assessed based on their ability to inhibit the auxin-inducible expression of the BA3-GUS reporter gene and indicated that the active portion of the molecule was 2-furylacrylic acid (2-FAA). In the micromolar range, 2-FAA attenuates the auxin-inducible expression of IAA5, fails to alter the interaction of IAA7/AXR2 with the SCF(TIR1) complex and inhibits both root and hypocotyl elongation of wild-type seedlings. Based on our structure-function analysis of compound A, we conclude that 2-furylacrylic acid is liberated by hydrolysis of an ester linkage. Identification of the cellular target of this molecule will add to our understanding of auxin-mediated events.

    Abstract This study demonstrates that SMALL AUXIN UP-RNA (SAUR) proteins negatively regulate PP2C-D family phosphatases to modulate the phosphorylation status and activity of plasma membrane H ⁺-ATPases to promote cell expansion. This work provides crucial molecular and genetic support for the decades-old acid growth theory of auxin-mediated cell expansion.

    Abstract The plant hormone auxin controls numerous aspects of plant growth and development by regulating the expression of hundreds of genes. SMALL AUXIN UP RNA (SAUR) genes comprise the largest family of auxin-responsive genes, but their function is unknown. Although prior studies have correlated the expression of some SAUR genes with auxin-mediated cell expansion, genetic evidence implicating SAURs in cell expansion has not been reported. The Arabidopsis SAUR19, SAUR20, SAUR21, SAUR22, SAUR23, and SAUR24 (SAUR19-24) genes encode a subgroup of closely related SAUR proteins. We demonstrate that these SAUR proteins are highly unstable in Arabidopsis. However, the addition of an N-terminal GFP or epitope tag dramatically increases the stability of SAUR proteins. Expression of these stabilized SAUR fusion proteins in Arabidopsis confers numerous auxin-related phenotypes indicative of increased and/or unregulated cell expansion, including increased hypocotyl and leaf size, defective apical hook maintenance, and altered tropic responses. Furthermore, seedlings expressing an artificial microRNA targeting multiple members of the SAUR19-24 subfamily exhibit short hypocotyls and reduced leaf size. Together, these findings demonstrate that SAUR19-24 function as positive effectors of cell expansion. This regulation may be achieved through the modulation of auxin transport, as SAUR gain-of-function and loss-of-function seedlings exhibit increased and reduced basipetal indole-3-acetic acid transport, respectively. Consistent with this possibility, SAUR19-24 proteins predominantly localize to the plasma membrane.

    Abstract The Genomics Education Partnership (GEP) engages students in a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE). To better understand the student attributes that support success in this CURE, we asked students about their attitudes using previously published scales that measure epistemic beliefs about work and science, interest in science, and grit. We found, in general, that the attitudes students bring with them into the classroom contribute to two outcome measures, namely, learning as assessed by a pre- and postquiz and perceived self-reported benefits. While the GEP CURE produces positive outcomes overall, the students with more positive attitudes toward science, particularly with respect to epistemic beliefs, showed greater gains. The findings indicate the importance of a student's epistemic beliefs to achieving positive learning outcomes.
