Aspects fonctionnels, structuraux et évolutifs de la réponse transcriptionnelle à l’auxine

2017

Auxin is a plant hormone implicated in almost all plant developmental stages, since the embryo formation till flowering, determining the position of the organs in the plant and thus, its whole structure. As for any other hormone, auxin perception is followed by a signal transduction that finishes in a series of changes in a plant cell, including transcriptional changes. This thesis is divided in 3 chapters, each with a focus on the structural, molecular and evolutionary aspects of different proteins involved in the regulation of auxin genes response.First, we focused our studies on TOPLESS (TPL), a co-repressor implicated, not only in auxin responsive genes repression, but also in many othe…
