2. Figure 1 Regulation of FT at the Protein Level.
(A) FT protein levels during the floral transition under LD conditions. Comparison of the patterns of FT protein and FT mRNA from days 8 to 12 under LD conditions. Bars indicate day (white) and night (black). ZT, zeitgeber time.
(B and C) Levels of FT protein and FT mRNA in photoperiod-shifted plants (SD-LD-SD) (B) and levels of FT protein and FT mRNA in photoperiod-shifted plants (LD-SD-LD) (C). Note that AP1 expression was not detected even after LD treatment (B). A gray box indicates SD-treated period.
(D) In vivo degradation assays after application of protease inhibitors to LD-SD-shifted wild-type plants.
(E) (Left) Flowering time distribution of plants treated with E-64 and chymostatin under LD conditions. Bar represents 1 cm. (Right) Western blots of crude protein extracts from wild-type plants treated with E-64 and chymostatin after transition to SD conditions.
(F) Stability of C-terminal-truncated FT proteins. Western blot analysis of protein extracts from 35S:FTΔ166, 35S:FTΔ167, and 35S:FTΔ168 plants using anti-FT antibody after treatment with cycloheximide (left). In vitro cell-free degradation assay using total proteins from 35S:FT, 35S:FT E167A, and 35S:FT S168A plants (right), after which protein levels were detected by western blot using anti-FT antibody. MOCK and CHX indicate DMSO control and cycloheximide-treated samples, respectively.
(G) Flowering time of plants overexpressing FT, FT E167A, FT S168A, FTΔ166, FTΔ167, or FTΔ168 under LD conditions. Error bars indicate the standard deviation.
