Figure 1From: The Arabidopsis translocator protein (AtTSPO) is regulated at multiple levels in response to salt stress and perturbations in tetrapyrrole metabolismInduction of AtTSPO mRNA by abiotic stresses. (A) Quantitative real-time PCR analyses of AtTspO transcripts upon treatment of different stresses, (a) 150 mM NaCl, (b) 1 μM ABA, (c) 250 mM mannitol and (d) 0.2 μM methyl viologen. Relative expression levels were calculated and ACTIN (At3g18780) and 18S rRNA (At3g41768) here used as reference genes. (B) GUS expression in AtTSPO-437::GUS and LHCB::GUS lines in 15-day-old transgenic Arabidopsis plants either untreated or treated with 150 mM NaCl.Back to article page
