- Abstract
- Two cDNAs, pNGPI-1 and pNGPI-2, encoding Nicotiana glutinosa proteinase inhibitor II (PI-II) have been cloned, sequenced and identified. The deduced amino acid sequences are 54-82% identical to those of other plant PI-II. The NGPI-1 protein is composed of eight repeated domains, while NGPI-2 contains six repeated regions, each with a putative reactive site. The expression of NGPI-1 is highly regulated in a developmental- and tissue-specific manner, with the transcript being detected in young leaves and floral organs of N. glutinosa plants. In mature leaves, the NGPI-1 gene is rapidly activated by distinct temporal induction patterns in response to pathogen-related (biotic) and wound-related (abiotic) stresses.
