Ectopic Expression of an <i>Arabidopsis</i> Calmodulin-Like Domain Protein Kinase-Enhanced NADPH Oxidase Activity and Oxidative Burst in Tomato Protoplasts
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Among plant defense responses to pathogen attack, the release of active oxygen species (AOS), termed the oxidative burst, may affect the attacking pathogen and the host plant cells at the infection site, thereby limiting the spread of the pathogen. Plasma membrane-associated NADPH oxidase represents a key enzyme in mediating the oxidative burst. The mechanisms of NADPH oxidase activation, however, remains unclear. Ectopic expression of AK1-6H, an Arabidopsis calmodulin-like domain protein kinase (CDPK) in tomato protoplasts enhanced plasma membrane-associated NADPH oxidase activity. Arabidopsis protein phosphatase 2A abolished this enhancement, whereas Arabidopsis dual-specificity protein tyrosine phosphatase 1 or maize protein phosphatase 1 had no effect tMEK2MUT, a constitutively activated, mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase from tomato, did not enhance NADPH oxidase activity when overexpressed. In a cell-free system, AK1-6H moderately stimulated the NADPH oxidase activity on plasma membrane. AK1-6H, but not tMEK2MUT, also enhanced production of AOS in intact protoplasts. Our results show that ectopic expression of a heterologous CDPK can enhance NADPH oxidase activity and stimulate an oxidative burst in tomato protoplasts.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
