Recently, we have identified circadian clock genes as targets of Histone Monoubiquitination1 (HUB1) in Arabidopsis from a transcriptome comparison between the hub1-1 mutant and HUB1 overexpression lines. HUB1 affected the amplitudes of the circadian clock gene expression profiles in the hub1-1 mutant that coincided with reduced monoubiquitination of histone H2B at their coding regions. Here we showed that parameters for plant fitness are altered in HUB1 mutant and overexpression lines, suggesting that the histone H2B monoubiquitination status affects plant fitness.
最近,我们从 hub1-1 突变体和 HUB1 过表达系之间的转录组比较中,确定了生物钟基因是拟南芥中组蛋白单泛素化 1 (HUB1)的靶标。HUB1 影响 hub1-1 突变体中生物钟基因表达谱的幅度,同时其编码区域的组蛋白 H2B 单泛素化减少。在这里,我们表明 HUB1 突变体和过表达系的植物适应参数发生了改变,这表明组蛋白 H2B 单泛素化状态会影响植物的适应性。
