Here , we focus on the possible role of KNOX ( maize Knotted1-like ) class homeobox genes in regulation of rice embryogenesis .
Three types of KNOX clones were identified in libraries of early zygotic embryos .
Two of these , Oskn2 and Oskn3 , encode newly described KNOX genes , whereas the third ( Oskn1 ) corresponds to the previously described OSH1 gene .
In situ hybridizations showed that during the early stages of embryo development , all three KNOX genes are expressed in the region where the shoot apical meristem ( SAM ) is organizing , suggesting that these genes are involved in regulating SAM formation .
Whereas OSH1 was previously proposed to function also in SAM maintenance , Oskn3 may be involved in patterning organ positions , as its expression was found to mark the boundaries of different embryonic organs following SAM formation .
The expression pattern of Oskn2 suggested an additional role in scutellum and epiblast development .
Transgenic expression of Oskn2 and Oskn3 in tobacco further supported their involvement in cell fate determination , like previously reported for Knotted1 and OSH1 ectopic expression .
Whereas Oskn3 transformants showed the most pronounced phenotypic effects during vegetative development , Oskn2 transformants showed relatively mild alterations in the vegetative phase but a more severely affected flower morphology .
The observation that the KNOX genes produce similar though distinct phenotypic reponses in tobacco , indicates that their gene products act on overlapping but different sets of target genes , or that cell-type specific factors determine their precise action . | Matching Sentences: [ Sen. 4, subscore: 1.00 ]: Two of these , Oskn2 and Oskn3 , encode newly described KNOX genes , whereas the third ( Oskn1 ) corresponds to the previously described OSH1 gene .

Their expression generally occurs either throughout the meristem or specifically at the lateral organ boundaries .
Down-regulation in the organ primordia is tightly controlled and misexpression in leaves leads to a perturbed development .
Here , the transcriptional control of two rice knox genes , Oskn2 and Oskn3 , was addressed , showing that the promoter sequences of both genes mediate the initial down-regulation during lateral organ formation , but are insufficient to keep expression in lateral organs stably off .
Therefore , maintenance of the repressed state requires control elements outside the promoter regions .
Ectopic expression of Oskn2 or Oskn3 induced similar defects in panicle branching . internode elongation and leaf patterning .
However , small differences suggested that their target gene specificities are not completely overlapping .
This was supported by the observation that Oskn3 protein but not Oskn2 could interact with two reported recognition sequences of a KNOX protein from barley .
Finally , protein-protein interactions may contribute to the functioning of KNOX proteins , as the ability of Oskn3 and Oskn2 to form heterodimers could be demonstrated . | Matching Sentences: [ Sen. 4, subscore: 1.00 ]: Here , the transcriptional control of two rice knox genes , Oskn2 and Oskn3 , was addressed , showing that the promoter sequences of both genes mediate the initial down-regulation during lateral organ formation , but are insufficient to keep expression in lateral organs stably off .

We studied the subcellular localization of Green Fluorescent Protein-tagged rice KNOX proteins ( Oskn1-3 ) after particle bombardment of onion and rice cells and after transformation of Arabidopsis and rice with constitutive and inducible expression constructs .
In all test systems , the three rice KNOX proteins showed nuclear and cytoplasmic localization patterns .
However , Oskn1 additionally showed in some cells a distribution over punctae moving randomly in the cytosol .
Use of an inducible expression system indicated a nuclear presence of Oskn1 in cells of the shoot apical meristem and post-transcriptional down-regulation in early leaf primordia .
Arabidopsis and rice test systems were used to study effects of plant hormones and auxin transport inhibition on KNOX protein localization .
Application of GA3 or 1-NAA shifted protein localization completely to the cytoplasm and resulted in loss of the punctae formed by Oskn1 .
Conversely , NPA application induced a complete nuclear localization of the KNOX proteins .
To study intercellular movement of the KNOX proteins we set up a novel co-bombardment assay in which trafficking of untagged KNOX proteins was visualized through the co-trafficking of green fluorescent or blue fluorescent marker proteins .
In multiple independent experiments Oskn1 trafficked more extensively to neighboring cells than Oskn2 and Oskn3 .
Differences in the localization and trafficking properties of Oskn1 , Oskn2 and Oskn3 correlate with differences in mRNA localization patterns and functional differences between the rice KNOX genes and their putative orthologues from other species . | Matching Sentences: [ Sen. 10, subscore: 1.00 ]: In multiple independent experiments Oskn1 trafficked more extensively to neighboring cells than Oskn2 and Oskn3 .
