Times Cited Count:33 Percentile:59.9(Plant Sciences)2,4-D, a chemical analogue of IAA, is widely used as a growth regulator and exogenous source of auxin. It is believed that they share a common response pathway. Here, we show that a mutant, () is resistant to 2,4-D, yet nevertheless responds like the wild type to IAA. That the mutation alters 2,4-D responsiveness specifically was confirmed by analysis of GUS expression in the and backgrounds, as well as by real-time PCR quantification of expression. Complementation and RNAi experiments identified a gene that confers 2,4-D responsiveness. The gene encodes a with unknown function and present in plants, animals, and invertebrates. These results suggest that SMAP1 is a regulatory component that mediates responses to 2,4-D and that responsiveness to 2,4-D and IAA are partially distinct.

The mechanism of plant hormoneauxin action has been revealed by identification of several auxin-related mutants. However, the detailed regulatory system of signaling pathway and whether known auxin receptors TIR1/AFBs accounts for all auxin response largely remains unclear. It is may be possible that other uncharacterized proteins are involved in TIR1/AFBs dependent or independent auxin signaling pathway. To investigate novel factors involved in auxin signaling, we screened new mutants that exhibits a long primary root in presence of antiauxin PCIB. The mutants were classified at least 5 independent loci including two known auxin-related loci and . Furthermore, physiological and molecular characterization of a novel auxin-related mutants, suggested that small acidic protein 1 is a regulatory component that mediates 2,4-D-induced auxin response and mode of action of 2,4-D is distinct from that of IAA at least in part.
