Definition and Functional Implications of Gibberellin and Abscisic Acid cis-Acting Hormone Response Complexes

The mechanisms by which cis-acting hormone response elements affect
transcription is unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that a second
"coupling element," identified as O2S, must be present to allow a single
copy of either the gibberellin response element (GARE) or the abscisic acid
response element (ABRE) to mediate their hormonal effects in the barley
Amy32b [alpha]-amylase gene promoter. The interactive effects of the O2S
and the GARE are constrained positionally and spatially; thus, together
they form a gibberellin response complex (GARC). The absolute requirement
of the O2S for function of the ABRE demonstrates that these together form
an abscisic acid response complex (ABRC). A second copy of the GARE can
substitute for the O2S in the GARC, but only in one orientation. By
expressing the GARC-containing and ABRC-containing promoters in developing
aleurone tissue, we showed that hormonal effects prevent [alpha]-amylase
gene expression during the second half of grain development, but other
mechanisms suppress expression earlier. Our results suggest that the
specific sequence serving as a coupling element in a given gene promoter
will greatly affect where and when the GARE or ABRE will be able to
regulate transcription.
