Abstract:
A novel
RbohB gene was isolated from
Brassica campestris L. Longyou 6 by RACE. The full-length cDNA of
RbohB is 2 694 bp, with open reading frame (ORF) 2 541 bp, encoding a 846 amino acid protein. By RT-PCR analysis, transcript level of
RbohB was increased in response to cold, high salt and H
2O
2 stress. However, MAPKK inhibitor U0126 pretreatment 12 h before cold, high salt and H
2O
2 stress, compared with the single stress, the expression level of
RbohB was significantly decreasing. The results suggested that
RbohB played an important role during cold, high salt and H
2O
2 stress in
B.campestris L. and U0126 has inhibitory effect to
RbohB gene transcription. The activity level of NADPH oxidase was increased in response to H
2O
2 stress. However, U0126 pretreatment 12 h before H
2O
2 stress, compared with the single H
2O
2 stress, NADPH oxidase activity was significantly decreasing. The result showed that MAPKK inhibitor U0126 has inhibitory effect to NADPH oxidase activity.
