In this paper, the multifractal properties of the ion current time series in the fast-activating vacuolar (FV) channels of L. taproot cells were investigated. These channels are permeable for only monovalent cations and mediate K at very low concentrations of cytosolic Ca and large voltages of either polarity. Using the patch clamp technique, the currents of the FV channels in red beet taproot vacuoles were recorded and analysed by using the multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MFDFA) method. The activity of the FV channels depended on the external potential and was sensitive to the auxin. It was also shown that the singularity spectrum of the ion current in the FV channels is non-singular, and the multifractal parameters, i.e., the generalised Hurst exponent and the singularity spectrum, were modified in the presence of IAA. Taking into account the obtained results, it can be suggested that the multifractal properties of fast-activating vacuolar (FV) K channels, indicating the existence of long-term memory, should be taken into account in the molecular mechanism of the auxin-induced growth of plant cells.
本文研究了甜菜主根细胞快速激活液泡(FV)通道中离子电流时间序列的多重分形特性。这些通道仅对单价阳离子通透,并在极低浓度的胞质钙和任意极性的大电压下介导钾离子运输。采用膜片钳技术,记录了红甜菜主根液泡中FV通道的电流,并运用多重分形去趋势波动分析(MFDFA)方法进行分析。FV通道的活性取决于外部电位,且对生长素敏感。研究还表明,FV通道中离子电流的奇异谱是非奇异的,并且在吲哚乙酸(IAA)存在的情况下,多重分形参数,即广义赫斯特指数和奇异谱会发生改变。综合所得结果,可以认为快速激活液泡(FV)钾通道的多重分形特性表明存在长期记忆,在生长素诱导植物细胞生长的分子机制中应予以考虑。
