Blue-Light Regulation of the Arabidopsis thaliana Cab1 Gene

The steady-state level of Cab RNA in etiolated Arabidopsis thaliana
increases as a result of a single pulse of blue light. The threshold for
the response is at or below 10[deg] [mu]mol m-2 and begins within 1 h of
irradiation. The response is not prevented by far-red treatment, and the
blue-light source used does not elicit and observable very low fluence
phytochrome response for RbcS RNA. The time course for blue-light-induced
transcript accumulation differs from that of red, the blue beginning more
quickly. Transcripts derived from the Cab1 (AB140; Lhcb1*3) member of the
gene family are responsible in part for the blue-light-induced
accumulation. This is the same member of the gene family that is
responsible for phytochrome-induced Cab gene expression (G.A.
Karlin-Neumann, L. Sun, E.M. Tobin [1988] Plant Physiol 88: 1323-1331). The
mutant hy4, which lacks blue-light-induced suppression of hypocotyl
elongation, retains the ability of Cab RNA to respond to blue light.
