High impact information on OPR3

 

Anatomical context of OPR3

  • The OPR3 protein and activity were consistently found in peroxisomes where they co-localize with the enzymes of beta-oxidation which catalyze the final steps in the formation of jasmonic acid [5].
 

Associations of OPR3 with chemical compounds

  • Thus, OPR3 is the isoenzyme relevant for jasmonate biosynthesis [6].
  • Transcripts of OPR3 rapidly accumulated in leaves after wounding and MeJA treatment, but they were detected in various tissues of unwounded plants at relatively low levels [7].
  • The recombinant OPR3 protein also showed beta-NADPH oxidation activity in the presence of cyclohexenone, but not cyclohexanone, suggesting that the enzyme has specificity to cleavage of olefinic bonds in cyclic enones [7].
  • The recombinant protein of OPR3 cross-reacted with an antiserum raised against the OYE protein, and showed oxidation of beta-NADPH when OPDA or 15-deoxy-delta(12,14) prostaglandin J2 (PGJ2), an analogue of OPDA, was used as substrate [7].
  • OPR3 was found to be induced by touch, wounding, methyl jasmonate (MeJA), NaCl and CaCl(2) while ethylene and darkness had no effect [8].
 

Other interactions of OPR3

  • The majority of genes (such as BRU1, CycD3, Lin6, OPR3, and TRIP-1) were identified by comparisons of BR-treated versus control-treated plants [9].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of OPR3

  • Northern blot analysis of eight representative clones as probes confirmed low expression in opr3 anthers compared with wild-type anthers [10].
