Virulent Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains integrate their T-DNA into the plant genome where the encoded agrobacterial oncogenes are expressed and cause crown gall disease. Essential for crown gall development are IaaH (indole-3-acetamide hydrolase), IaaM (tryptophan monooxygenase) and Ipt (isopentenyl transferase), which encode enzymes for the biosynthesis of auxin (IaaH, IaaM) and cytokinin (Ipt). Although these oncogenes are well studied as the tumor-inducing principle, nothing is known about the regulation of oncogene expression in plant cells. Our studies show that the intergenic regions (IGRs) between the coding sequences (CDS) of the three oncogenes function as promoters in plant cells. These promoters possess a eukaryotic sequence organization and cis-regulatory elements for the binding of plant transcription factors. WRKY18, WRKY40, WRKY60 and ARF5 were identified as activators of the Ipt promoter whereas IaaH and IaaM is constitutively expressed and no transcription factor further activates their promoters. Consistent with these results, the wrky triple mutant plants in particular, develops smaller crown galls than wild-type and exhibits a reduced Ipt transcription, despite the presence of an intact ARF5 gene. WRKY40 and WRKY60 gene expression is induced by A. tumefaciens within a few hours whereas the ARF5 gene is transcribed later during crown gall development. The WRKY proteins interact with ARF5 in the plant nucleus, but only WRKY40 together with ARF5 synergistically boosts the activation of the Ipt promoter in an auxin-dependent manner. From our data, we propose that A. tumefaciens initially induces WRKY40 gene expression as a pathogen defense response of the host cell. The WRKY protein is recruited to induce Ipt expression, which initiates cytokinin-dependent host cell division. With increasing auxin levels triggered by ubiquitous expression of IaaH and IaaM, ARF5 is activated and interacts with WRKY40 to potentiate Ipt expression and balance cytokinin and auxin levels for further cell proliferation.
In dieser Arbeit konnten 69 neue und neuartige Koordinationspolymere sowie Komplexe mit schwefelhaltigen Liganden auf Selten-Erd-Chlorid-Basis synthetisiert und strukturell charak-terisiert werden.
Durch die Umsetzung der Chloride mit dem Liganden Thiazol konnten bei Raumtemperatur, abhängig vom Ionenradius und der eingesetzten Menge Thiazol, sowohl Koordinationspolymere wie 1∞[LnCl3(thz)6]·thz (Ln = La, Ce), dimere Komplexe [Ln2Cl6(thz)8]·3(thz) (Ln = La, Ce, Pr, Nd), [Pr2Cl6(thz)8] sowie monomere Komplexe [LnCl3(thz)4]2·thz (Ln = Sm , Eu , Tb, Ho) erhalten werden. Mittels temperaturabhängiger Pulverdiffraktometrie und in-situ Infra-rotspektroskopie sowie DTA/TG-Messungen konnte exemplarisch an 1∞[LaCl3(thz)6]·thz und [Pr2Cl6(thz)8] gezeigt werden, dass stufenweise thermisch bedingt Thiazolmoleküle aus den Strukturen abgegeben werden bis hin zur Rückbildung des eingesetzten LnCl3. Unter der Vo-raussetzung, dass die flüchtige Komponente Thiazol resorbiert wird, ist daher ein Kreispro-zess denkbar. Ferner konnten zusätzlich wasserhaltige Phasen wie der vierkernige Cluster [Pr4Cl10(OH)2(thz)8(H2O)2] erhalten werden.
Durch die Zugabe eines geeigneten Linkermoleküls in das Reaktionssystem aus trivalenten Lanthanidchloriden und Thiazol konnten unter solvothermalen Bedingungen eine Vielzahl an Koordinationspolymeren und Komplexen erhalten werden. Als Linker oder als end-on Ligan-den eigneten sich sowohl eine Reihe an ditopischer Pyridylliganden 4,4'-Biypridin (bipy), 1,2-Di-(4-pyridyl)ethen (dpe), trans-1-(2-Pyridyl)-2-(4-pyridyl)ethylen (tppe), 1,2-Di-(4-pyridyl)ethan (dpa), sowie die Diazine Pyrazin (pyz) und Pyrimidin (pym) oder auch Azole wie 1,2,4-Triazol (tzH) und Pyrazol (pzH). Mittels Einkristallstrukturanalyse und pulverdiffrakto-metrischer Methoden konnten die dreidimensionalen Gerüstverbindungen 3∞[LnCl3(dpa)2]·thz (Ln = Ce - Sm, Gd - Lu), die Schichtstrukturen 2∞[Ln2Cl6(bipy)3(thz)2]·thz (Ln = La, Ce), 2∞[LnCl3(tzH)2(thz)]·thz (Ln = Pr, Sm - Gd) und die strangartigen Koordinationspolymere 1∞[LnCl3(bipy)(thz)2]·thz (Ln = Pr, Nd), 1∞[LnCl3(bipy)(thz)2]·thz (Ln = Sm, Eu - Er, Yb), 1∞[Ln2Cl6(dpe)2(thz)4]·dpe (Ln = Ce, Nd), 1∞[LnCl3(dpe)(thz)2]· 0.5 (dpe) 0.5 (thz) (Ln = Sm, Gd - Dy, Er, Yb), 1∞[HoCl3(dpe)(thz)2]·thz, 1∞[La2Cl6(dpa)(thz)6], 1∞[Pr2Cl6(pyz) (thz)6], 1∞[Ln2Cl6(tzH)4(thz)2] (Ln = Pr, Sm, Gd) sowie die Komplexe [LnCl3(tppe)2(thz)2] (Ln = Nd, Tb, Ho, Er), [Ln2Cl6(pyz)(thz)6]·2(thz) (Ln = Tb, Er), [Ln2Cl6(pym)2(thz)4] (Ln = Tb , Er), [LnCl3(pzH)3(thz)2] (Ln = Pr, Gd) charakterisiert werden.
Ferner konnten die erhaltenen Verbindungen weitestgehend auf ihre photolumineszenz-spektroskopischen sowie thermischen Eigenschaften hin untersucht werden. Außerdem konn-ten auch durch direkte Schwefelkoordination an die Ln3+-Zentren eindimensionale Koordina-tionspolymere 1∞[PrCl2(amt)(py)3] (amt- = 3-Amino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazolat), [HNEt3]1∞[LnCl2(amt)2] (Ln = Ho, Er) und Komplexe [LnCl2(Mbim)(py)3]·py (Ln = Y, Er; Mbim = 2-Mercaptobenzimdiazolat) generiert werden
Post-synthetic shaping of porosity and crystal structure of Ln-Bipy-MOFs by thermal treatment
(2015)
The reaction of anhydrous lanthanide chlorides together with 4,4'-bipyridine yields the MOFs \(^{2}\)\(_{∞}\)[Ln\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(bipy)\(_{3}\)]*2bipy, with Ln = Pr-Yb, bipy = 4,4'-bipyridine, and \(^{3}\)\(_{∞}\)[La\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(bipy)\(_{5}\)]*4bipy. Post-synthetic thermal treatment in combination with different vacuum conditions was successfully used to shape the porosity of the MOFs. In addition to the MOFs microporosity, a tuneable mesoporosity can be implemented depending on the treatment conditions as a surface morphological modification. Furthermore, thermal treatment without vacuum results in several identifiable crystalline high-temperature phases. Instead of collapse of the frameworks upon heating, further aggregation under release of bipy is observed. \(^{3}\)\(_{∞}\)[LaCl\(_{3}\)(bipy)] and \(^{2}\)\(_{∞}\)[Ln\(_{3}\)Cl\(_{9}\)(bipy)\(_{3}\)], with Ln = La, Pr, Sm, and \(^{1}\)\(_{∞}\)[Ho\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(bipy)\(_{2}\)] were identified and characterized, which can also exhibit luminescence. Besides being released upon heating, the linker 4,4'-bipyridine can undergo activation of C-C bonding in ortho-position leading to the in-situ formation of 4,4':2',2 '':4 '',4'''-quaterpyridine (qtpy). qtpy can thereby function as linker itself, as shown for the formation of the network \(^{2}\)\(_{∞}\)[Gd\(_{2}\)Cl\(_{6}\)(qtpy)\(_{2}\)(bipy)\(_{2}\)]*bipy. Altogether, the manuscript elaborates the influence of thermal treatment beyond the usual activation procedures reported for MOFs.
