鉄は葉緑体の電子伝達系の構成因子であり、安定した光合成を可能にする。仮に鉄が長期的に欠乏すると、葉緑体の電子伝達が異常となり、最終的に光酸化ストレスによって細胞死が起こる。本研究では、鉄欠乏オオムギの光合成機能の最適化を担う必須因子HvLhcb1.12に着目した。HvLhcb1.12は集光性アンテナタンパク質の一種であるが、そのN末端側には多数のリン酸化部位が存在する。本遺伝子をイネに導入した結果、過剰光条件下での収量が野生型のイネより約25%増加し、光酸化ストレスの回避に貢献することが示された。

Barley varieties commonly enhance nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ), a thermal dissipation mechanism, under Fe deficiency to protect against photodamage. In this process, phosphorylated Lhcb1 (pLhcb1) plays an essential role in NPQ induction. However, the mechanism underlying pLhcb1 function in Fe-deficiency-induced NPQ has remained unclear. We recently discovered novel pLhcb1–PSII–PSI megacomplexes that are constitutively formed in the stroma lamellae of Fe-deficient barley. In barley chlorina mutants lacking Lhcb1 and the ability to enhance Fe-deficiency-induced NPQ, these megacomplexes were almost absent, suggesting that pLhcb1-mediated NPQ is associated with these complexes. To elucidate the energy-transfer pathways within the megacomplexes, we performed fluorescence decay–associated spectra (FDAS) using a variety whose megacomplexes remain stable during isolation. FDAS revealed that the megacomplexes mediate rapid energy transfer from PSII to PSI via LHCII, mainly composed of Lhcb1, resulting in highly efficient thermal dissipation. We are currently isolating large quantities of the megacomplexes to clarify their protein composition and to prepare for structural analysis.

Analyses of Cell Wall-Related and Disease-Responsive Gene Mutants in Low-Calcium-Induced Cell Death in Arabidopsis International conference

Calcium (Ca) deficiency symptom is a serious problem in crop production because it leads to necrosis, such as blossom end rot of fruits and tip burn of leafy vegetables. Ca deficiency alters cell wall composition and triggers defense responses, including cell death. Although much is known about pathogen-induced cell death, little is known about how Ca deficiency triggers necrosis or whether cell wall changes are involved.
In this study, we investigated the involvement of cell wall-related and disease-responsive genes in low Ca tolerance and the development of cell death in Arabidopsis. To date, we have measured the shoot fresh weights under low Ca conditions in 14 mutants defective in genes related to cell death and cell wall regulation. As a result, Ca channel deletion mutants (cngc2 and cngc4) and lignin-deficient mutants (myb15) showed a tendency of growth improvement compared with the wild-type plants under low Ca conditions, suggesting the possible involvement of Ca channels and lignin in low-Ca sensitivity. We are now going to clarify whether the mutants are involved in the occurrence of cell death in new leaves using trypan blue staining. -
Distribution of Iron Among Protein Complexes in Thylakoid Membrane of the Barley Cultivar ‘Sarab-1’ and Redistribution of Iron Under Iron-Deficient Conditions International conference
Kai Nakano, Akihiro Saito, Yusuke Shikanai, Kyoko Higuchi
67th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society of Plant Physiologists in Tokyo 2026.03 the Japanese Society of Plant Physiologists
Event date： 2026.03
Language：English Presentation type：Poster presentation
Venue：Meiji University, Surugadai Campus Country：Japan
The Fe-deficiency-tolerant barley cultivar ‘Sarab-1’ accumulates more Fe in its thylakoids than other cultivars, despite having relatively lower amounts of Fe-rich photosystem I, suggesting the presence of additional Fe-containing molecules in ‘Sarab-1’. To explore these possible Fe-containing molecules in ‘Sarab-1’ thylakoid membranes, we are currently undertaking two complementary approaches: (1) sucrose density gradient ultracentrifugation followed by graphite furnace AAS, and (2) large-pore Clear Native (lpCN)-PAGE followed by LA-ICP-MS for Fe quantification from gels. The first method enables simultaneous detection of Fe-rich thylakoid fractions and proteome analysis. In contrast, lpCN-PAGE coupled with LA-ICP-MS may enable high-resolution analysis of Fe distribution. To integrate isotopic Fe labeling with these methods to quantify trace Fe distribution, we also conducted a ⁵⁷Fe pulse–chase experiment. As a result, when ⁵⁷Fe-labeled plants were subjected to Fe deficiency, ⁵⁷Fe was redistributed from the latest expanded leaves to the newly developing leaves in ‘Sarab-1’. We are now planning to perform lpCN-PAGE and LA-ICP-MS using ⁵⁷Fe-labeled thylakoid proteins.

Spatiotemporal Analysis of Calcium Transport Into Tomato Fruits Using Real-Time ⁴⁵Ca Monitoring International conference

Venue：Meiji University, Surugadai Campus Country：Japan
Calcium (Ca) deficiency symptoms, such as blossom-end rot, often occur in fruits due to weak transpiration. It has been generally believed that Ca is primarily transported through the xylem via transpiration flow, with limited redistribution through the phloem.
To elucidate the mechanism of Ca transport to tomato fruit, we performed real-time monitoring using radioactive Ca (⁴⁵Ca) and a compact positron multi-probe system. A ⁴⁵Ca solution was injected directly into the main stem either in the daytime or at night, and its radioactivity was monitored by detectors placed on the stem, pedicel, and petiole.
The arrival order of ⁴⁵Ca depended on distance from the injection site, without an apparent day–night difference. Time–Activity–Curve profiles were classified into two patterns: (1) decline after a peak, (2) continuous increase or stable. Pattern (1) was likely observed in the main stem close to the injection site, and pattern (2) in the distal or terminal parts, suggesting successful detection of the spatiotemporal movement of ⁴⁵Ca from the main stem to the distal parts. We will discuss the dynamics of ⁴⁵Ca together with the proportions of mobile and immobile ⁴⁵Ca in each plant part. -
Relationship Between High-pH Responsive NRT2 Expression in Root Tips and Root Elongation Maintenance in Barley Under High-pH Conditions International conference

Plant root elongation and nutrient uptake commonly require a moderately acidic apoplastic environment; however, some plant species can maintain root elongation even under high-pH conditions. We previously reported that barley can maintain root elongation even under alkaline conditions, and that a group of uncharacterized high-affinity nitrate transporter genes (termed NRT2uc group) are induced by high pH in the root meristematic and elongation zones. However, this finding was based on only one barley cultivar, ‘Ehimehadaka 1’. In this study, we compared the cultivars ‘Ehimehadaka 1’ and ‘Igri’ or ‘Shirohadaka 1’ and ‘Barke’, which can/cannot maintain root elongation under high-pH conditions, respectively, to examine whether the ability to maintain root elongation under high-pH conditions is associated with the expression of the NRT2uc genes. In addition, we are investigating whether MADS-box genes which could regulate the expression of NRT2 genes are also induced by high pH.

米麦日報：高鉄分米はメカニズム解析、「育種加速して品種登録目指す」 Newspaper, magazine
米麦日報 米麦日報 2023.03
▽進捗
＝イネの鉄吸収のメカニズムは複雑で、土壌に鉄分を投入したり葉に散布したりするのでは大して量を増やすことができなかった。そこで交配に切り替え、まずは元々鉄分やマンガンが多く含まれている「台中65号」と紫黒米もち品種である「朝紫」を交配。
これを繰り返し「うるち⇔もち」「白米⇔紫黒米」などの特性を組み合わせたいくつかのパターンを作った。その中には玄米と精米のいずれも、朝紫より鉄分が顕著に増加した世代も見られた。また、鉄強化米を玄米で茶椀一杯(180g)食べた場合、約2mgの鉄を摂取できるというデータも得られた(日本食品成分表の玄米は1.1mg)。
一方、食味は玄米ではコシ同等という結果も出たが、「やはり精米だと食べ慣れた米とはかなりかけ離れている。これまでは栄養価を高めることに主軸を置いていたが、日本人の嗜好に合った品種も目指したい」とする。
また、黒米型・もち米型など品種の特性によっては、日本酒や米粉パンなど食べやすい形での製品化も視野に入れる。同時に、稲の鉄分の吸収を促進するメカニズムも解析。遺伝子変異によって鉄分を感知するタンパク質が作られなくなり、吸収促進に繋がることが分かった。「原因遺伝子が分かったため、効率の良い選抜が可能になる」。
▽今後の展開
＝育種を4～5年続けたのち、2年間の圃場試験を経て品種登録を目指す。また、鉄含量を高くするための肥培管理や収穫適期のマニュアル化、普及に向けた食育活動などにも取り組む。「イネ品種の確立は私立大学で初の試み。農大全体のプロジェクトとして進めていく」とのことだ。 -
プレスリリース・共同研究「オオムギ品種間での鉄吸収速度の違いを可視化」 Internet
東京農業大学・広報 2022.03
Author：Myself
東京農業大学・応用生物科学部・農芸化学科の樋口恭子教授、日本原子力研究開発機構・原子力科学研究所の故・酒井卓郎研究主幹、量子科学技術研究開発機構・高崎量子応用研究所の河地有木上席研究員を中心とする共同研究グループ（*1）は、放射性同位体を観測する新しい技術「ライブオートラジオグラフィー」を利用して、欠乏しやすい微量必須元素である鉄を吸収する速度がオオムギの品種間で大きく異なることを見出しました。植物の養分吸収速度をハイスループットに評価し、有用遺伝子の探索を支援することが期待されます。
植物が養分欠乏に対抗する戦略は（１）根からの吸収効率を向上させる、（２）植物体内で再利用する、（３）細胞の生理を低栄養に順応させる、の３つに大きく分けることができます。今回の成果は（１）吸収速度を、各植物の表現型として迅速に評価することにつながります。放射性同位体は、注目する元素やその元素を含む分子の化学的性質に影響を与えることなく、その元素/分子の存在位置を可視化することを可能にします。今回使用した「ライブオートラジオグラフィー」は市販の放射性同位体を使用し、小型で汎用性の高い形状で、様々な作物、元素の吸収速度の計測に適用できます。
放射性同位体の計測を生理学研究に適用するには、応用物理学分野の研究者と生物学分野の研究者の緊密な連携が欠かせません。今回の成果は、本共同研究グループの長年の共同研究活動があって初めて実現しました。
本研究成果は、オンラインジャーナルの「Plants」IF3.935に掲載されました。（３月１９日付）
