Characterization of Aquaporins at the Plasma Membrane of Leaf Callus Protoplasts from Actinidia deliciosa cv. Hayward

QIU Quan-Sheng, WANG Ze-Zhou   

Abstract:

The water transport activity of protoplasts from Actinidia deliciosa cv. Hayward was determined using a cell image system. The results showed that the protoplast volume increased swiftly when the protoplasts were placed in a hypotonic medium, and the volume increased with the increasing osmotic gradients. The P f values were 0.118×10-3, 0.121×10-3, and 0.133×10-3cm/s under the outward osmotic gradients of 75, 100, and 125 mmol/kg, respectively. The results also showed that the water transport activity of protoplasts could be inhibited by HgCl 2 and stimulated by amphotericin B. Moreover, it was found that ZnCl2 and ZnSO4 had a significant inhibitory effect on the water transport activity of the protoplasts from A. deliciosa var. deliciosa cv. Hayward. The results indicated that the protoplasts of A. deliciosa var. deliciosa cv. Hayward possessed the typical property of aquaporins, suggesting the presence of aquaporins at its plasma membranes.

摘要:采用细胞影像系统,测定了猕猴桃(Actinidia deliciosa cv.Hayward)原生质体转运水分活力。结果表明,猕猴桃原生质体在低渗介质中体积迅速增大,且随着渗透梯差的加大而显著增大;在渗透梯差为75、100、125mmol/kg下,Pf值分别为0.118×10-3、0.121×10-3、0.133×10-3cm/s。同时发现猕猴桃原生质体转运水分活力可以被HgCl2抑制;并且发现人工通道形成剂两性霉素= 能够促进猕猴桃原生质体水分转运,表明所测水分转运是通过膜脂双层进行的。实验还发现,ZnC12和ZnSO4可以显著抑制猕猴桃原生质体水分转运活力。以上可见,猕猴桃原生质体转运水分活力表现出典型的水通道蛋白的特征,暗示猕猴桃原生质体质膜上存在水通道蛋白。
