Localization and quantitative distribution of a chromatin structural protein Topoisomerase II on plant chromosome using HVTEM and UHVTEM
Topoisomerase II (TopoII) is an essential structural protein of the metaphase chromosome. It maintains the axial compaction of chromosomes during metaphase. It is localized at the axial region of chromosomes and accumulates at the centromeric region in metaphase chromosomes. However, little is known about TopoII localization and distribution in plant chromosomes, except for several publications. We used high voltage transmission electron microscopy (HVTEM) and ultra-high voltage transmission electron microscopy (UHVTEM) in conjunction with immunogold labeling and visualization techniques to detect TopoII and investigate its localization, alignment, and density on the barley chromosome at 1.4 nm scale. We found that HVTEM and UHVTEM combined with immunogold labeling is suitable for the detection of structural proteins, including a single molecule of TopoII. This is because the average size of the gold particles for TopoII visualization after silver enhancement is 8.9 ± 3.9 nm, which is well detected. We found that 31,005 TopoII molecules are distributed along the barley chromosomes in an unspecific pattern at the chromosome arms and accumulate specifically at the nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) and centromeric region. The TopoII density were 1.32-fold, 1.58-fold, and 1.36-fold at the terminal region, at the NORs, and the centromeric region, respectively. The findings of TopoII localization in this study support the multiple reported functions of TopoII in the barley metaphase chromosome.
期刊介绍:
Micron is an interdisciplinary forum for all work that involves new applications of microscopy or where advanced microscopy plays a central role. The journal will publish on the design, methods, application, practice or theory of microscopy and microanalysis, including reports on optical, electron-beam, X-ray microtomography, and scanning-probe systems. It also aims at the regular publication of review papers, short communications, as well as thematic issues on contemporary developments in microscopy and microanalysis. The journal embraces original research in which microscopy has contributed significantly to knowledge in biology, life science, nanoscience and nanotechnology, materials science and engineering.
