RESUMO
We isolated a cDNA encoding a 568-amino acid, heat-stress-induced peptidyl prolyl isomerase belonging to the FK506-binding-protein (FKBP) family. The open reading frame encodes for a peptidyl prolyl isomerase that possesses three FKBP-12-like domains, a putative tetratricopeptide motif, and a calmodulin-binding domain. Specific antibodies showed that the open reading frame encodes a heat-induced 77-kD protein, the wheat FKBP77 (wFKBP77), which exhibits 84% identity with the wFKBP73 and 42% identity with the human FKBP59. Because of the high similarity in sequence to wFKBP73, wFKBP77 was designated as the heat-induced isoform. The wFKBP77 mRNA steady-state level was 14-fold higher at 37°C than at 25°C. The wFKBP77 transcript abundance was the highest in mature embryos that had imbibed and 2-d-old green shoots exposed to 37°C, and decreased to 6% in 6-d-old green shoots. The transcript level returned to the level detected at 25°C after recovery of the embryos for 90 min at 25°C. We compared wFKBP73 and wFKBP77 with the heat-shock proteins having cognate and heat-stress-induced counterparts.
