拟南芥VPS23调控SOS信号途径的机理研究的中期报告 Abstract Vacuolarproteinsorting23(VPS23)playsanimportantroleinregulatingtheSOSpathwayinArabidopsisthaliana.Inthisstudy,theassociationbetweenVPS23andtheSOSpathwaywasinvestigatedthroughtheidentificationofArabidopsismutantsdeficientinVPS23activityandthesubsequentanalysisoftheirphenotypesandgeneexpressionpatterns.PreliminaryresultssuggestthatVPS23regulatestheexpressionofSOS-relatedgenesbyaffectingthestabilityoftheirmRNAtranscripts.Furtherstudiesarerequiredtoelucidatetheunderlyingmolecularmechanisms.
