Effect of abiotic stresses on glutathione peroxidase and glutathione S-transferase activity in barley root tips

In the present work we investigated the activity of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) in barley root tip and their relation to root growth inhibition induced by different abiotic stresses. Cadmium-induced root growth inhibition is strongly correlated with increased GST...

520 |a In the present work we investigated the activity of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) in barley root tip and their relation to root growth inhibition induced by different abiotic stresses. Cadmium-induced root growth inhibition is strongly correlated with increased GST and GPX activity. Similarly, strong induction of GPX and GST activity was observed in Hg-treated root tips, where also the highest root growth inhibition was detected. Relationship between increased GST activity and root growth inhibition was also observed during other heavy metal treatments. On the other hand, only a slight increase of GPX activity was observed after application of Pb, Ni, and Zn, while Co did not affect GPX activity. Similarly to Hg and Cd, Cu treatment caused a strong increase in GPX activity. GPX activity in barley root tips was not affected by cold, heat or drought treatment and only a slight increase was observed after salt or H(2)O(2) treatment. Apart from salt treatment, only a weak increase in GST activity was observed during heat, drought and H(2)O(2) stresses, while during cold treatment its activity slightly decreased. Some detected differences in the spatial distribution of GST and GPX activity along the root tip suggests that at least two proteins are responsible for these activities. These proteins play a crucial role not only during stresses, but also in unstressed seedlings in the differentiation processes of root tip. The application of different inhibitors suggests that the main proportion of these activities detected in barley root tip are probably catalysed by GSTs possessing also GPX activity
