Os03g0320900

• The rice gene Os03g0320900 was reported as v2 in 2007.

Annotated Information

Expression Pattern

• To examine stage-specific expression of the V2 gene during chloroplast and leaf development, we carried out RT-PCR analysis of various tissues of wild-type and v2 mutant seedlings that had been grown at the restrictive temperature until they had a fully emerged 3rd leaf. RT-PCR analysis revealed that, in the wild-type seedlings, V2 transcripts are much more abundant at an early stage of leaf development than at the later stages (Figure 1). In contrast, V2 transcripts were more abundant at later stages of leaf development in the v2 mutant.

Figure 1. RT-PCR analysis of V2 gene expression. Total RNA was extracted from seedlings of the wild-type and v2 mutant grown at the restrictive temperature (20�C) and amplified with gene-specific primers as described in Experimental procedures. The total RNA samples used as template for RT-PCR were run on a gel and stained with ethidium bromide (EtBr) to allow comparison of the sample concentrations (see bottom panel). .
