The commitment of eukaryotic cells to
division normally occurs during the G1 phase of the cell cycle. In
mammals D-type cyclins regulate the progression of cells through G1 and
therefore are important for both proliferative and developmental
controls. Plant CycDs (D-type cyclin homologs) have been identified,
but their precise function during the plant cell cycle is unknown. We
have isolated three tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) CycD
cyclin cDNAs: two belong to the CycD3 class
(Nicta;CycD3;1 and Nicta;CycD3;2) and the
third to the CycD2 class (Nicta;CycD2;1). To uncouple their cell-cycle regulation from developmental control, we have used
the highly synchronizable tobacco cultivar Bright Yellow-2 in a
cell-suspension culture to characterize changes in CycD transcript levels during the cell cycle. In cells re-entering the cell cycle from
stationary phase, CycD3;2 was induced in G1 but
subsequently remained at a constant level in synchronous cells. This
expression pattern is consistent with a role for
CycD3;2, similar to mammalian D-type cyclins. In
contrast, CycD2;1 and CycD3;1 transcripts
accumulated during mitosis in synchronous cells, a pattern of
expression not normally associated with D-type cyclins. This could
suggest a novel role for plant D-type cyclins during mitosis.
