Abstract
The invention provides methods for using cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitor genes, or anti-sense constructs complementary to such genes, to modify the growth and development of plant cells and organs. The invention provides methods of modifying the development of plant cells and plants by transforming plant cells with nucleic acids encoding cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor polypeptides, or anti-sense constructs complementary to such nucleic acids, to produce transformed plant cells, and then culturing the plant cells or regenerating a plant under conditions wherein the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, or the anti-sense construct, is expressed. A variety of CDK inhibitor genes, and corresponding anti-sense constructs, are disclosed for use in a variety of plants. The nucleic acid encoding the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor may be operably linked to a tissue-specific promoter.
Another aspect of the invention provides modified transgenic plants and plant tissues. The invention also provides methods of identifying nucleic acids that encode cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors that are active in plants to modify the development of the plants.

Description
CYCLIN-DEPENDENT KINASE INHIBITORS AS PLANT GROWTH REGULATORS
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to the modification of growth and development of plants through transgenic sense or anti-sense expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor genes.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In eukaryotes including plants, the progression of cell cycle events is regulated by a network of gene products and factors to ensure that this crucial process is initiated as an integral part of the growth and the developmental program, and in response to the external environment.
These factors exert their influences on the cell cycle machinery via various pathways. At the 1o center of the machinery lies an enzyme complex consisting of a catalytic subunit, cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK), and a regulatory subunit, cyclin. CDKs are a group of related serine/threonine kinases and their activity generally depends on their association with cyclins (Pines, 1995).
Early work disclosed the existence of CDKs in yeast. A CDK called Cdc2 (p34°a~z, or 15 CDK1) was identified in fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe (Hindley and Phear, 1984) and a Cdc2 homolog called CDC28 was identified in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Lorincz and Reed, 1984). In yeast, Cdc2 (or CDC28) kinase appears to be solely responsible for regulating the progression of the cell cycle.
Animal cells have evolved several Cdc2-related CDKs in order to achieve more complex 2o regulation at multiple levels. In mammalian cells, seven distinct CDKs and eight types of cyclins have been identified (see review by Pines, 1995). Complexes of these CDKs and cyclins appear to act sequentially at different checkpoints during the cell cycle, while incorporating the input of different developmental and environmental cues.
Plants, like higher animals, have multiple CDKs (Francis and Halford, 1995;
Jacobs, 1995) and cyclins (Renaudin et al., 1996). In Arabidopsis thaliana, at least two Cdc2 homologues, Cdc2a and Cdc2b (Ferreira et al., 1991; Hirahama et al., 1991) and as many as twelve cyclins belonging to three groups (Renaudin et al., 1996) have so far been documented.
Of the two Cdc2 homologues in A. thaliana, Cdc2a resembles more closely Cdc2 homologues from other species because it has a conserved PSTAIRE motif and is able to genetically complement yeast cdc2 or CDC28 mutants (Ferreira et al., 1991; Hirahama et al., 1991 ), indicating some functional homology of A. thaliana Cdc2a with the yeast Cdc2 kinase.
Expression analyses showed that A. thaliana cdc2a expression was correlated with the "competence" of a cell to divide and preceded the re-entry of differentiated cells into the cell to division cycle (Martinez et al., 1992; Hemerly et al., 1993), and expression of a dominant negative cdc2a mutant resulted in cell cycle arrest (Hemerly et al., 1995). A.
thaliana Cdc2b is atypical in that it has a PPTALRE motif in place of the PSTAIRE motif. Like cdc2a, cdc2b is also expressed in dividing plant cells. While cdc2a is expressed constitutively throughout the cell cycle, cdc2b is reportedly expressed preferably in S and G2 phases (Segers et al., 1996).
Relatively little is known about the cyclins and other proteins and factors which regulate the activity of CDK-cyclin complexes in plant cells. Results from yeast and mammalian studies have demonstrated multiple pathways, both positive and negative, by which CDK
activity can be modulated (Lees, 1995). In addition to binding by a cyclin, for example, activation of CDKs may also involve a CDK-activating kinase (CAK) which itself is a CDK, and CDC25 protein 2o phosphatase.
A new aspect of regulating CDK activity was discovered with the identification of CDK
inhibitors (see reviews by Pines, 1995; Sherr and Roberts, 1995; Harper and Ellege, 1996). These small proteins are understood to bind stoichiometrically to negatively regulate the activity of CDKs. It has been suggested that these inhibitors may be involved in animal development and cancer, in addition to their role in cell cycle regulation (Harper and Elledge, 1996). A plant CDK
inhibitor activity was observed and was suggested to be involved in endosperm development in maize (Graft and Larkins, 1995).
The activity of CDK inhibitors has been studied in animals. Transgenic mice have been generated lacking p21, p27 and p57 CDK inhibitor genes. The p21 knockout mice are reported to
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to the modification of growth and development of plants through transgenic sense or anti-sense expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor genes.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
In eukaryotes including plants, the progression of cell cycle events is regulated by a network of gene products and factors to ensure that this crucial process is initiated as an integral part of the growth and the developmental program, and in response to the external environment.
These factors exert their influences on the cell cycle machinery via various pathways. At the 1o center of the machinery lies an enzyme complex consisting of a catalytic subunit, cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK), and a regulatory subunit, cyclin. CDKs are a group of related serine/threonine kinases and their activity generally depends on their association with cyclins (Pines, 1995).
Early work disclosed the existence of CDKs in yeast. A CDK called Cdc2 (p34°a~z, or 15 CDK1) was identified in fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe (Hindley and Phear, 1984) and a Cdc2 homolog called CDC28 was identified in budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Lorincz and Reed, 1984). In yeast, Cdc2 (or CDC28) kinase appears to be solely responsible for regulating the progression of the cell cycle.
Animal cells have evolved several Cdc2-related CDKs in order to achieve more complex 2o regulation at multiple levels. In mammalian cells, seven distinct CDKs and eight types of cyclins have been identified (see review by Pines, 1995). Complexes of these CDKs and cyclins appear to act sequentially at different checkpoints during the cell cycle, while incorporating the input of different developmental and environmental cues.
Plants, like higher animals, have multiple CDKs (Francis and Halford, 1995;
Jacobs, 1995) and cyclins (Renaudin et al., 1996). In Arabidopsis thaliana, at least two Cdc2 homologues, Cdc2a and Cdc2b (Ferreira et al., 1991; Hirahama et al., 1991) and as many as twelve cyclins belonging to three groups (Renaudin et al., 1996) have so far been documented.
Of the two Cdc2 homologues in A. thaliana, Cdc2a resembles more closely Cdc2 homologues from other species because it has a conserved PSTAIRE motif and is able to genetically complement yeast cdc2 or CDC28 mutants (Ferreira et al., 1991; Hirahama et al., 1991 ), indicating some functional homology of A. thaliana Cdc2a with the yeast Cdc2 kinase.
Expression analyses showed that A. thaliana cdc2a expression was correlated with the "competence" of a cell to divide and preceded the re-entry of differentiated cells into the cell to division cycle (Martinez et al., 1992; Hemerly et al., 1993), and expression of a dominant negative cdc2a mutant resulted in cell cycle arrest (Hemerly et al., 1995). A.
thaliana Cdc2b is atypical in that it has a PPTALRE motif in place of the PSTAIRE motif. Like cdc2a, cdc2b is also expressed in dividing plant cells. While cdc2a is expressed constitutively throughout the cell cycle, cdc2b is reportedly expressed preferably in S and G2 phases (Segers et al., 1996).
Relatively little is known about the cyclins and other proteins and factors which regulate the activity of CDK-cyclin complexes in plant cells. Results from yeast and mammalian studies have demonstrated multiple pathways, both positive and negative, by which CDK
activity can be modulated (Lees, 1995). In addition to binding by a cyclin, for example, activation of CDKs may also involve a CDK-activating kinase (CAK) which itself is a CDK, and CDC25 protein 2o phosphatase.
A new aspect of regulating CDK activity was discovered with the identification of CDK
inhibitors (see reviews by Pines, 1995; Sherr and Roberts, 1995; Harper and Ellege, 1996). These small proteins are understood to bind stoichiometrically to negatively regulate the activity of CDKs. It has been suggested that these inhibitors may be involved in animal development and cancer, in addition to their role in cell cycle regulation (Harper and Elledge, 1996). A plant CDK
inhibitor activity was observed and was suggested to be involved in endosperm development in maize (Graft and Larkins, 1995).
The activity of CDK inhibitors has been studied in animals. Transgenic mice have been generated lacking p21, p27 and p57 CDK inhibitor genes. The p21 knockout mice are reported to
-2-develop normally but are deficient in G1 checkpoint control, such as cell cycle arrest in response to DNA damage (Deng et al., 1995). Analysis of p27 knockout mice from three independent studies show that transgenic mice lacking p27 display larger body size than control mice (Fero et al., 1996; Kiyokawa et al., 1996; Nakayama et al., 1996). The enhanced growth is reportedly due to an increase in cell number (Kiyokawa et al., 1996) and is gene dose-dependent (Fero et al., 1996). In comparison, none of p21 or p57 knockout display enhanced growth. The transgenic mice lacking p57 show a range of developmental defects such as defective abdominal muscles, cleft palate and renal medullary dysplasia (Yan et al., 1997; Zhang et al., 1997). A few developmental defects were observed in p27-/- mice. They include impaired ovarian follicles 1o (thus female sterility), impaired luteal cell differentiation and a disordered estrus cycle. These results reflect a disturbance of the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis. In comparison, transgenic mice lacking p21 appear to develop normally at both gross anatomic and histologic levels (Deng et al., 1995). In addition, an increase in apoptosis is observed in mice lacking p57. The CDK
inhibitor p27 was over-expressed in mouse hepatocytes (Wu et al., 1996), resulting in a general a ~5 decrease in overall number of adult hepatocytes which result in aberrant tissue organization, body growth and mortality.
Despite the general conservation of basic cell cycle machinery in eukaryotes, the role of plant cell division during plant growth and development is characteristically different from other eucaryotic cells. In many respects, the regulation of plant cell division and growth can be 2o regarded as distinct from other eucaryotic cells. For example, plant cells are not mobile during morphogenesis. Different sets of hormones are involved in modulating plant growth and development. Plant cells are remarkable for their ability to re-enter the cell cycle following differentiation. Also, cell division in plants is continuous, along with organ formation, and plant body size (the number of total cells and size of the cells) can vary dramatically under different 25 conditions. Plants also have an inherent ability to incorporate additional growth into normal developmental patterns, as is illustrated by a study showing that ectopic expression of a mitotic cyclin driven by the cdc2a promoter resulted in a larger but normal root system (Doerner et al., 1996). However, relatively little is known about the interaction of the regulatory genes controlling cell division patterns in plants (Meyerowitz, 1997).

-3-A few studies of transgenic expression of cell cycle genes in plants are documented using various cell cycle genes other than CDK inhibitors. A heterologous yeast cdc25, a mitotic inducer gene, was introduced into tobacco plants under the control of a constitutive CaMV 35s promoter (Bell et al., 1993). Transgenic tobacco plants showed abnormal leaves (lengthened and twisted lamina, pocketed interveinal regions), abnormal flowers, and also precocious flowering.
Analysis of cell size in the root meristem revealed that trasngenic plants expressing the yeast cdc25 had much smaller cells (Bell et al., 1993). The wild type cdc2a gene and variants of dominant negative mutations under the control of CaMV 35s promoter have been used to transform tobacco and Arabidopsis plants (Hemerly et al., 1995). Constitutive expression of io wild-type and mutant Cdc2a did not significantly alter the development of the transgenic plants.
For the dominant negative Cdc2a mutant, it was not possible to regenerate Arabidopsis plants.
Some tobacco plants expressing this construct were obtained and they had considerably fewer but much larger cells. These cells, however, underwent normal differentiation.
Morphogenesis, histogenesis and developmental timing were unaffected (Hemerly et al., 1995).
As mentioned 15 above, ectopic expression of an Arabidopsis mitotic cyclin gene, cyclAt, under the control of the cdc2a promoter increases growth without altering the pattern of lateral root development in Arabidopsis plants (Doerner et al., 1996).
The yeast two-hybrid system has been used to identify the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor gene ICKI from a plant (Wang et al., 1997). ICKl is different in sequence, structure 2o and inhibitory properties from known mammalian CDK inhibitors. It has been shown that recombinant protein produced from this gene in bacteria is able to inhibit plant Cdc2-like kinase activity in vitro (Wang et al., 1997).
Cytotoxin genes, i. e. genes encoding a protein which will cause cell death, have been tested in transgenic plants for genetic ablation of specific cells or cell lines during development, 25 including RNase (Mariani et al., 1990), DTT (diphitheria toxin) chain A
(Thorsness et al., 1991;
Czako et al., 1992), Exotoxin A (Koning et al., 1992) and ribosomal inhibitor proteins (United States Patent No. 5,723,765 issued 3 March 1998 to Oliver et al.).

Non-specific low-level expression of the cytotoxin may be a difficult problem to overcome, since most tissue-specific promoters have some levels of expression in other tissues in addition to a high level of expression in a particular tissue. Expression of a potent cytotoxin gene even at a low concentration may have a negative impact on growth and development in non-target tissues. The presence of cytotoxic proteins of transgenic origin may also have a negative effect on the marketability of an edible plant, or plant product, even if the cytotoxin is demonstrably benign to consumers.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention provides methods of modifying plant or plant cell development.
In the context of the invention, the word 'development' encompasses a wide variety of biological process, including growth, morphogenesis, multiplication, enlargement, differentiation or 2o maturation of a cell or plant. In one aspect, the methods of the invention involve transforming a plant cell with a nucleic acid encoding a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor polypeptide, or an anti-sense construct complementary to such a nucleic acid, to produce a transformed plant cell;
and, growing the transformed plant cell, or progeny of the transformed plant cell, under conditions wherein the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor polypeptide, or the anti-sense construct, is expressed in the transformed plant cell or in the progeny of the transformed plant cell. A 'CDK
inhibitor polypeptide' is any polypeptide capable of inhibiting a CDK, preferably a CDK active during development of a plant or plant cell. The growing of the transformed plant cell or progeny of the transformed plant cell may be carried out to produce a transformed plant, such as by regenerating a plant from a transformed culture or by propagating or growing whole plants from transformed plant parts. The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor polypeptide, or anti-sense construct, may be expressed to modify the development of the transformed plant or progeny of the transformed plant. The term 'progeny', with reference to a plant, includes progeny produced to sexually or asexually (for example by tissue culture-based propagation).
The term 'growing' with reference to the transformed cells or plants includes all methods for growing and propagating cells or plants, such as tissue culture or horticultural means of propagating plants or plant parts.
In the following detailed description, various examples are set out of particular embodiments of the invention, together with experimental procedures that may be used to implement a wide variety of modifications and variations in the practice of the present invention.
In the context of the present invention, "promoter" means a sequence sufficient to direct transcription of a gene when the promoter is operably linked to the gene. The promoter is accordingly the portion of a gene containing DNA sequences that provide for the biding of RNA
polymerase and initiation of transcription. Promoter sequences are commonly, but not universally, located in the 5' non-coding regions of a gene. A promoter and a gene are "operably linked" when such sequences are functionally connected so as to permit gene expression mediated by the promoter. The term "operably linked" accordingly indicates that DNA segments are arranged so that they function in concert for their intended purposes, such as initiating transcription in the promoter to proceed through the coding segment of a gene to a terminator portion of the gene. Gene expression may occur in some instances when appropriate molecules (such as transcriptional activator proteins) are bound to the promoter.
Expression is the process of conversion of the information of a coding sequence of a gene into mRNA by transcription and subsequently into polypeptide (protein) by translation, as a result of which the protein is said to be expressed. As the term is used herein, a gene or nucleic acid is "expressible" if it is capable of _g_ expression under appropriate conditions in a particular host cell.
For the present invention, promoters may be used that provide for preferential gene expression within a specific organ or tissue, or during a specific period of development. For example, promoters may be used that are specific for leaf (Dunsmuir, et al Nucleic Acids Res, (1983) 11:4177-4183), root tips (Pokalsky, et al Nucleic Acids Res, (1989) 17:4661-4673), fruit (Peat, et al Plant Mol. Biol, (1989) 13:639-651; United States Patent No.

5,723,765 issued 3 March 1998 to Oliver et al.), or young flowers (Nilsson et al. 1998). Such promoters may, in some instances, be obtained from genomic clones of cDNAs. Depending upon the application of the present invention, those skilled in this art may choose a promoter for use in the invention which provides a desired expression pattern. Promoters demonstrating preferential transcriptional activity in plant tissues are, for example, described in European Patent Application EP-A 0 255 378 and International Patent Publication WO-A 9 113 980. Promoters may be identified from genes which have a differential pattern of expression in a specific tissue by screening a tissue of interest, for example, using methods described in United States Patent No. 4,943,674 and European Patent Application EP-A 0255378. The disclosure herein includes examples of this aspect of the invention, showing that plant tissues and organs can be modified 2o by transgenic expression of a plant CDK inhibitor.
Non-dividing plant cells may tolerate low level expression of CDK inhibitors, such as ICKl, in non-targeted tissues. Thus, the invention may be practiced in some embodiments using tissue specific promoters operably linked to CDK inhibitor encoding sequences, even when the promoter mediates a tolerable basal level of expression in other tissues.
Various aspects of the present invention emcompass nucleic acid or amino acid sequences that are homologous to other sequences. As the term is used herein, an amino acid or nucleic acid sequence is "homologous" to another sequence if the two sequences are substantially identical and the functional activity of the sequences is conserved (for example, both sequences function as or encode a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor; as used herein, sequence conservation or identity does not infer evolutionary relatedness). Nucleic acid sequences may also be homologous if they encode substantially identical amino acid sequences, even if the nucleic acid sequences are not themselves substantially identical, for example as a result of the degeneracy of the genetic code.
Two amino acid or nucleic acid sequences are considered substantially identical if, when optimally aligned, they share at least about 75% sequence identity, preferably at least about 90%
sequence identity, and more preferably at least about 95% sequence identity.
Optimal alignment of sequences for comparisons of identity may be conducted using a variety of algorithms, such as the local homology algorithm of Smith and Waterman (1981) Adv. Appl. Math 2:
482, by the to homology alignment algorithm of Needleman and Wunsch (1970) J. Mol. Biol.
48:443, buy the search for similarity method of Pearson and Lipman (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad.
Sci. USA 85: 2444, and by computerized implementations of these algorithms (such as GAP, BESTFIT, FASTA and TFASTA in the Wisconsin Genetics Software Package, Genetics Computer Group, Madison, WI, U.S.A.). Sequence identity may also be determined using the BLAST algorithm, described in Altschul et al. (1990), J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-10 (using the published default settings). Software for performing BLAST analysis may be available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information (through the Internet at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/). The BLAST
algorithm involves first identifying high scoring sequence pairs (HSPs) by identifying short words of length W in the query sequence that either match or satisfy some positive-valued threshold score T
2o when aligned with a word of the same length in a database sequence. T is referred to as the neighborhood word score threshold. Initial neighborhood word hits act as seeds for initiating searches to find longer HSPs. The word hits are extended in both directions along each sequence for as far as the cumulative alignment score can be increased. Extension of the word hits in each direction is halted when the following parameters are met: the cumulative alignment score falls off by the quantity X from its maximum achieved value; the cumulative score goes to zero or below, due to the accumulation of one or more negative-scoring residue alignments; or the end of either sequence is reached. The BLAST algorithm parameters W, T and X
determine the sensitivity and speed of the alignment. The BLAST program may use as defaults a word length (W) of 11, the BLOSUM62 scoring matrix (Henikoff and Henikoff (1992) Proc.

One measure of the statistical similarity between two sequences using the BLAST algorithm is the smallest sum probability (P(N)), which provides an indication of the probability by which a match between two nucleotide or amino acid sequences would occur by chance. In alternative embodiments of the invention, nucleotide or amino acid sequences are considered substantially identical if the smallest sum probability in a comparison of the test sequences is less than about 1, preferably less than about 0.1, more preferably less than about 0.01, and most preferably less than about 0.001.
An alternative indication that two nucleic acid sequences are substantially identical is that the two sequences hybridize to each other under moderately stringent, or preferably stringent, 1o conditions. Hybridization to filter-bound sequences under moderately stringent conditions may, for example, be performed in 0.5 M NaHP04, 7% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 1 mM EDTA at 65°C, and washing in 0.2 x SSC/0.1% SDS at 42°C (see Ausubel, et al. (eds), 1989, Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, Vol. 1, Green Publishing Associates, Inc., and John Wiley &
Sons, Inc., New York, at p. 2.10.3). Alternatively, hybridization to filter-bound sequences under 15 stringent conditions may, for example, be performed in 0.5 M NaHP04, 7%
SDS, 1 mM EDTA
at 65 °C, and washing in 0.1 x SSC/0.1% SDS at 68°C (see Ausubel, et al. (eds), 1989, supra).
Hybridization conditions may be modified in accordance with known methods depending on the sequence of interest (see Tijssen, 1993, Laboratory Techniques in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology -- Hybridization with Nucleic Acid Probes, Part I, Chapter 2 "Overview of principles of 2o hybridization and the strategy of nucleic acid probe assays", Elsevier, New York). Generally, stringent conditions are selected to be about 5 °C lower than the thermal melting point for the specific sequence at a defined ionic strength and pH.
An alternative indication that two amino acid sequences are substantially identical is that one peptide is specifically immunologically reactive with antibodies that are also specifically 2s immunoreactive against the other peptide. Antibodies are specifically immunoreactive to a peptide if the antibodies bind preferentially to the peptide and do not bind in a significant amount to other proteins present in the sample, so that the preferential binding of the antibody to the peptide is detectable in an immunoassay and distinguishable from non-specific binding to other peptides. Specific immunoreactivity of antibodies to peptides may be assessed using a variety of immunoassay formats, such as solid-phase ELISA immunoassays for selecting monoclonal antibodies specifically immunoreactive with a protein (see Harlow and Lane (1988) Antibodies, A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Publications, New York).
The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors of the present invention, and the genes encoding those inhibitors, may include non-naturally occurnng sequences, such as functionally active fragments of naturally occurnng sequences. For example, fragments of ICKI, or amino acid sequences homologous to those fragments, that have cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitory activity may be used in some embodiments of the invention. The invention provides methods for identifying such fragments, for example by deletion mapping of active cyclin-dependent kinase to inhibitors. As used herein the term "cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor"
therefore includes any polypeptide capable of functioning to inhibit a cyclin-dependent kinase and may be used to modify the growth or development of the plant, the invention similarly encompasses nucleic acid sequences encoding such polypeptides.
As used herein to describe nucleic acid or amino acid sequences the term "heterologous"
refers to molecules or portions of molecules, such as DNA sequences, that are artificially introduced into a particular host cell. Heterologous DNA sequences may for example be introduced into a host cell by transformation. Such heterologous molecules may include sequences derived from the host cell. Heterologous DNA sequences may become integrated into the host cell genome, either as a result of the original transformation of the host cells, or as the 2o result of subsequent recombination events.
The specificity of a CDK inhibitor may be assayed in vivo. For example, the ICKI coding sequence was fused to a known promoter which directed gene expression in pollen but not in stamen primordia. The transformants are normal and fertile. This result indicates that in specific embodiments of the invention, expression of ICKI is not generally toxic to tissues other than the target tissue. Phenotypes may be obtained, for example with the exemplified transformants, that are due to specific action of the CDK inhibitor, such as ICKI protein, on cell division. In such embodiments, the CDK inhibitor, such as ICKl, may be used as a specific tool to modify growth or development of meristematic tissues without materially affecting other processes.
In some embodiments, there may be important advantages to using a CDK
inhibitor gene for genetic engineering in plants, particularly to control selected cell lineages, rather than using genes encoding cytotoxins. In accordance with the invention, the CDK inhibitor action may be made to be specific only to certain cells, avoiding the non-specific destruction of plant cells. This specificity may be achieved partly because non-dividing plant cells in non-targeted tissues may have better tolerance of low level expression of a CDK inhibitor than a cytotoxin. Thus, in accordance with the invention it may be possible to use tissue specific promoters for expressing CDK inhibitors when such promoters still have a tolerable basal level of expression in other tissues. This may usefully expand the range of promoters available for use in the invention, since to most tissue-specific promoters have some levels of expression in other tissues in addition to a high level of expression in a particular tissue. In contrast, expression of a potent cytotoxic gene in one tissue, even at a low concentrations, can have a negative impact on growth and development in other tissues.
In an alternative aspect of the invention, the down-regulation of CDK
inhibitors, such as ICK1, may be used to enhance growth during plant development. Such growth enhancement may be tissue-specific. For example, anti-sense oligonucleotides may be expressed to down-regulate expression of CDK inhibitors. The expression of such anti-sense constructs may be made to be tissue-specific by operably linking anti-sense encoding sequences to tissue-specific promoters.
Anti-sense oligonucleotides, including anti-sense RNA molecules and anti-sense DNA
molecules, act to block the translation of mRNA by binding to targeted mRNA
and inhibiting protein translation from the bound mRNA. For example, anti-sense oligonucleotides complementary to regions of a DNA sequence encoding a CDK inhibitor, such as ICK1, may be expressed in transformed plant cells during development to down-regulate the CDK inhibitor.
Alternative methods of down-regulating CDK inhibitor gene expression may include the use of ribozymes or other enzymatic RNA molecules (such as hammerhead RNA structures) that are capable of catalyzing the cleavage of RNA (as disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos.
4,987,071 and 5,591,610). The mechanism of ribozyme action generally involves sequence specific hybridization of the ribozyme molecule to complementary target RNA , followed by endonucleolytic cleavage.
Arabidopsis thaliana "Columbia" may be used as a convenient model system for identifying CDK inhibitors that are useful in various embodiments of the present invention.
Arabidopsis plants are generally grown in pots placed in growth chambers (20°C 16h/8h of day/night). Other plants may also of course be used in various embodiments of the invention in accordance with known growth and transformation techniques.
Yeast two-hybrid cloning and assay techniques may be used to identify and assess CDK
inhibitors useful in the present invention. For example, a cDNA library may be made using poly (A) mRNA isolated from whole plants at different stages of development and cloned in a suitable vector, such as Gal4 TA- (transcription-activation domain) pPC86 (Chevray and Nathans, 1992;
to available from GIBCOBRL Life Technologies) or pBI771- a modified pPC86 (Koholmi et al., 1997). The cDNA of the gene (such as cdc2a, cyclin 82 and cyclin 83) to be used for screening the library may be cloned in a suitable vector, such as the Gal4 DB- (DNA-binding domain) vector. The yeast strain, such as MaV203 or YPB2, harboring the construct may be transformed using the library DNA.
~5 In one example, for analysis of Cdc2a interactions, a total of 1.8 X
10'transformants were subjected to two-hybrid selection on supplemented synthetic dextrose medium lacking leucine, tryptophan and histidine but containing 5 mM 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole.
The selected colonies were assayed for (3-galactosidase activity using standard methods.
DNAs were isolated from positive clones and used to transform E. coli. Clones harboring the TA-fusion cDNAs were 2o identified by PCR and plasmids were then isolated for DNA sequencing.
Interactions in the yeast two-hybrid system may, for example, be analyzed by either filter assay (Chevray and Nathans, 1992) using X-gal as the substrate or by a quantification assay using ONPG (ortho-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactoside) as the substrate (Reynolds and Lundlad, 1994). Three or more independent transformants may be used for each interaction.
25 Standard methods are available for the preparation of constructs for use in identifying and characterizing CDK inhibitors useful in various embodiments of the invention.
General molecular techniques may for example be performed by procedures generally described by Ausubel et al. (1995). Alternative equivalent methods or variations thereof may be used in accordance with the general knowledge of those skilled in this art.
In one example, the AP3 promoter was cloned by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from Arabidopsis thaliana "Columbia" gtnomic DNA, on the basis of the published sequence (Irish and Yamamoto, 1995; GenBank Accession U30729). The promoter was cloned in a modi-fied binary vector pBI121 (Clontech). IC1C1 cDNA (SEQ ID NO: 1)(Wan= et al., lgg'n was similarly amplified by PCR and transcrzptionaily fi~sed with the AP3 promoter and the chimeric gene ends with a nopaline sythase terminator. As a comparison and to determine the effect ICKI on differentiated cells such as pollen, the same ICKI nucleotide sequence used in AP3-ICKI fusion was used in fusion with a Brassica campestris anther-specific promoter Bgpl (Xu et al. 1993;
1o GenBank Accession X68210). The Bgpl promoter has been shown to be able to direct a high level of GUS (beta-glucuronidase) gene expression in the pollen and tapetum of transgenic Arabidopsis plants (Xu et al., 1993). The resulting plasmids were introduced into Agrobactrium tumefaciens strain GV3141 (bearing helper plasmid pMP90; Koncz and Schell 1986).
In accordance with various aspects of the invention, plant cells may be transformed with 15 heterologous nucleic acids. Transformation techniques that may be employed include plant cell membrane disruption by electroporation, microinjection and polyethylene glycol based transformation (such as are disclosed in Paszkowski et al. EMBO J. 3:2717 (1984); Fromm et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82:5824 (1985); Rogers et al., Methods Enzymol.
118:627 (1986);
and in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,684,611; 4,801,540; 4,743,548 and 5,231,019), ballistic transformation 2o such as DNA particle bombardment (for example as disclosed in Klein, et al., Nature 327: 70 (1987); Gordon-Karnm, et al. "The Plant Cell" 2:603 (1990); and in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,945,050;
5,015,580; 5,149,655 and 5,466,587); Agrobacterium mediated transformation methods (such as those disclosed in Horsch et al. Science 233: 496 (1984); Fraley et al., Proc.
Nat'1 Acad Sci.
USA 80:4803 (1983); and U.S. Patent Nos. 4,940,838 and 5,464,763).
25 Transformed plant cells may be cultured to regenerate whole plants having the transformed genotype and display a desired phenotype, as for example modified by the expression of a heterologous CDK inhibitor during growth or development. A
variety of plant culture techniques may be used to regenerate whole plants, such as are described in Evans et al.
"Protoplasts Isolation and Culture", Handbook of Plant Cell Culture, Macmillian Publishing - IS-Company, New York, 1983; or Binding, "Regeneration of Plants, Plant Protoplasts", CRC Press, Boca Raton, 1985; or in Klee et al., Ann. Rev. ofPlant Phys. 38:467 (1987).
Standard techniques may be used for plant transformation, such as transformation of Arabidopsis. In one example, the AP3-ICKI and Bgpl-ICKl constructs were tested in A.
thaliana by in planta transformation techniques. Wild type (WT) A. thaliana seeds of ecotype "Columbia" were planted in soiled 4" pots and plants grew in controlled growth chamber or greenhouse. The vacuum infiltration method of in planta transformation (Bechtold et al., 1993) was used to transform A. thaliana plants with overnight culture of A.
tumefacian strain GV3101 bearing both the helper nopline plasmid and the binary construct containing the described 1o chimeric gene. pMP90 is a disarmed Ti plasmid with intact vir region acting in traps, gentamycin and kanamycin selection markers as described in Koncz and Schell (1986).
Following infiltration, plants were grown to maturity and seeds (T1) were collected each pod individually.
Seeds were surface-sterilized and screened on selective medium containing 50 mg/L kanamycin with or without 200 mg/L timentin. After about four weeks on selection medium, the non-transformed seedlings died. The transformed seedlings were transferred to soil in pots. Leaf DNA
was isolated (Edwards et al., 1991) and analyzed by PCR for the presence of the DNA insertion.
Genomic DNA was also isolated and used in Southern hybridization (Southern, 1975) to determine the copy number of the inserted sequence in a given transformant. To determine the segregation, T2 seeds were collected from T1 plants. Wherever the T1 plant was male sterile, 2o crosses was made using the WT A. thaliana pollen to obtain seeds. As described, T2 seeds were surface-sterilized and screened on selective medium.
Alternative embodiments of the invention may make use of techniques for transformation of Brassica. Such as transformation of B. napus cv. Westar and B. carinata cv.
Dorolla or breeding line C90-1088 by co-cultivation of cotyledonary petioles or hypocotyl explants with A.
tumefaciens bearing the plasmids described herein. Transformation of B. napus plants may, for example, be performed according to the method by Moloney et al. (1989).
Modifications of that method may include the introduction of a 7-day explant-recovery period following co-cultivation, on MS medium with the hormone benzyladenine (BA), and the antibiotic timentin for the elimination of Agrobacterium. Transformation of B. carinata plants may be performed according to the method by Babic et al. (1998). Cotyledonary petiole explants may be dipped in suspension of Agrobacterium bearing the desired constructs and placed on 7-cm filter paper (Whitman no. 1 ) on top of the regeneration medium for 2 days. After co-cultivation, explants may be transferred onto the selection medium containing SO mg/L kanamycin.
Regenerated green shoots may first be transfen~ed to a medium to allow elongation and then to a rooting medium all containing 50 mglL kanamycin. Putative transformants with roots (TO) may be transferred to soil. Genomic DNA may be isolated from developing leaves for PCR and Southern analyses.
Seeds (T 1 ) from transgenic plants may then be harvested.
Transgenic plants may be observed and characterized for the presence (absence of) the desired phenotypic trait, such as petals, male sterility and ability to set seeds after pollination using wild type pollen. For example, to determine the development of floral organs, flowers at different stages of development may be dissected and examined under a stereomicmscope. Floral samples may also be examined using scanning electron microscope for more defined morphology of floral organ meristems and their development.
Genomic clones of sequences encoding putative CDK inhibitors may be cloned using standard techniques. For example, to clone a genomic ICK1 encoding sequence, genomic DNA
may be isolated from two-week old A. thaliana seedlings according to a procedure described (Lohdi et al., 1994). In one example, the genomic sequence spanning the ICKI
cDNA se4uence (SEQ ID NO: 1) was amplfdied by 30 cycles of PCR (polymerise chain reaction) using sequence-specific primers with incorporated restriction sites. Pju DNA polymerise (Stratagene), which has a higher replication fidelity than the Taq DNA polymerise, may be used. 'Ihe amplified DNA fragment may be cloned into a suitable vector, such as pGEMSZf(+) (promega). Plasmids may then be purified and sequenced.
In one example, an ICKl cDNA isolated from the two hybrid screening was cloned in frame into pBI786, a modified His6-tagged vector derived finm pRSETB
(Invitrogen) (Wang et al., 1997). Recombinant His6-ICKI was purified from E. coli using Ni-NTA
agarose resin (QIAGEN) according to manufacturer's instructions except that the final washing was with buffer D, pH 6.0 and the protein was eluted with 2 ml buffer D, pH 4Ø The eluent was renatured by diluting with lOX volume of a renaturing buffer (10 mM Tris pH 7.5, S00 mM
NaCI, 400 mM
arginine HCI, 20 pM MgCl2, 20 ~M ZnAc and 0.1 % Tween 20) and dialysed in the same buffer (500 ml per 2 ml sample) at 4°C overnight. The protein samples may be concentrated with Filtron l OK concentrators. The sample was then dialyzed at 4°C for 3 h against 1000 volumes of the kinase assay buffer (see below) containing 0.4 mM DTT and each (0.4 pg/ml) of the protease inhibitors soybean trypsin inhibitor, antipain and apotinin. The protein was stored at -80 °C.
Kinase assays may be useful in some aspects of the invention, for example to assay the function of CDK inhibitors on particular kinases. For example, kinases may be purified from A.
thaliana tissues or cultured B. napus cells. Plant materials may be homogenized in 2 ml per gram tissue of ice cold extraction buffer consisting of 25 mM Tris pH 8.0, 100 mM
NaCI, 10 mM
1o DTT, 5 mM NaF, 1 mM Na3V04, 1 mM [3-glycerophosphate, 2.5 mM EDTA, 400 ~g/ml AEBSF
[4-(2-aminoethyl)-enzensulfonyl fluoride], 1 pg/ml leupeptin and 1 ~g/ml pepstatin. The homogenate was centrifuged at 12,OOOg at 4°C for 30 min. The supernatants may be used to purify Cdc2-like protein kinases using pl3s°°'-conjugated agarose beads (Oncogene Sciences).
The required amount of supernatant (150 pg protein for each reaction) was added to the beads is and tumbled at 4°C for 2 h. The beads may be washed twice in a washing buffer consisting of 50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 250 mM NaCI, 0.1 % NP-40, 2.5 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT and inhibitor cocktail of (in final concentrations) 10 ~g/ml apotinin, 10 pg/ml antipain, 10 ~g/ml soybean trypsin inhibitor, 10 mM (3-glycerophosphate, 1 mM NaF and 0.2 mM Na3V04. Beads may then be washed twice in the kinase assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCI, 2 mM
EGTA, 2 mM
2o DTT and the inhibitor cocktail). For inhibition assays, the recombinant protein was added to the reactions and incubated (tumbling slowly) for 1.5 h at 4°C. The kinase reaction was initiated by adding 1 pg/~1 histone H1 (Sigma), 25 pM ATP and 0.05 pCi/ul 32P-y-ATP (final concentrations), and stopped after 20 min incubation by adding the sample buffer. Denatured supernatant was resolved by SDS-PAGE.
2s RNA isolation and northern blotting analysis may be useful in various embodiments of the invention. For example, to analyze ICKl expression during plant development, various tissues may be taken from Arabidopsis plants. To analyse the effects of ABA
and low temperature, seedlings may be treated as described (Wang et al., 1995).
Briefly, seedlings (12 days) grown in pots may be cleared of soil with water, then floated in O.1X
strength MS medium without sucrose and hormones. Low temperature treatment was at 5°C for 24 h. ABA treatment was carried out in a solution containing 50 ~,M ABA. Seedling samples may be removed after various treatment times. Total RNA was isolated using TRIzoI reagent (GIBCO
BRL). For northern analysis, the indicated amount of RNA was fractionated in a 1.2%
agarose gel and transferred onto Hybond-N+ nylon membrane (Amersham). The RNA was crosslinked to the membrane by UV-light (Stratalinker, Stratagene) and hybridized with 32P-labeled probes. The membranes may be wrapped and used to expose Hyperfilm MP (Amersham) film.
Membranes may be stripped by treating with a boiling solution of O.1X SSC and 0.1% SDS
for 5 min.
Quantification of hybridized signal was performed using Molecular Dynamics PhosphorImager to and the accompanying software.
In Vitro binding assays may be useful in various aspects of the invention, for example to assay the interaction of a CDK inhibitor, or fragments of a CDK inhibitor, and a particular kinase. As an example of such an approach, 35S-Met labeled Cdc2a, CycD3 and proteins may be expressed from a T7 promoter construct using an in vitro coupled rabbit reticulocyte transcription/translation system ('TNT', Promega). Ni+-NTA beads (Qiagen) may be equilibrated and blocked in NETN buffer lacking EDTA (NTN) (Bai et al., 1996), and supplemented with 2 mg/ml BSA. Equilibrated beads may be incubated with Hisb ICK1 (5 ~.g for each 10 pl beads) in 1 ml of NTN buffer for 2 h with tumbling at 10°C
followed by washing with 2 X 1 ml NTN buffer. Binding experiments may be carried out in a total volume of 100 pl NTN
2o containing 10 p,l beads, plus 5 ~l 35S-Met labeled protein. The binding reaction was incubated at 10°C for 2 h, followed by washing with 3 X 0.5 ml NTN buffer. Washed beads may be eluted with 10 p,l SDS-containing denaturing buffer at 100°C for 5 min, and bound 35S-Met labeled proteins analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Gels may be imbibed with a fluorography enhancer ('Amplify', Amersham) prior to drying and exposure to X-ray film.
Deletion constructs may be useful for domain mapping to determine the functional domains of a CDK inhibitor. For example, N-terminal deletion constructs of ICK1 were made using cDNAs with deletions of various lengths from the N-terminal end. The C-terminal deletion constructs were prepared by PCR using Pfu DNA polymerase with sequence-specific primers and the resulting DNA fragments were cloned into the yeast two-hybrid vector pBI771 (Kohalmi et al., 1997). The deletion clones may be verified by DNA sequencing. The constructs may be used to transform a suitable yeast strain. In one such example, yeast strain YPB2 harboring either edc2a or CycD3 cloned in the BD- (binding domain) vector was transformed with deletion constructs. Interactions in the yeast two-hybrid system may then, for example, be analyzed by X-gal filter assay (Chevray aad Nathans, 1992) and by liquid culture assays for relative ~i-galactosidase activity (for example using the modified procedure of Reynolds and Lundlad, 1994). Three or more independent transformants may be used for each interaction.
Sequence Analyses: Sequence analyses, including determination of sequence homology, may be performed using a variety of software, such as LASERGENE (DNASTAR).
Database 1o searches may also use a variety of software tools, such as the BLAST
program (NCBn.
Analysis of CDK inhibitor cDNA Clones and Genomic Sequences: The yeast two-hybrid system (Fields and Song, 1989; Kohalmi et al., 1997) may be used to identify genes, such as ICKl , that encode inhibitar proteins able to interact with the plant cyclin-dependent kinases, such as Cdc2 kinase, for use in the present invention. For example, among the 68 ICK 'nteractors of 15 ~dc2 K'lnase) clones identified using Cdc2a as the bait in a yeast two hybrid system (Wang et al., 1997), 55 represented various lengths of ICKI, 7 of ICK2 and 6 of ICK3. A
contig sequence for homologous clones disclosed by the yeast two hybrid assay may be used, as was the contig sequence for ICKI cDNA (Wang et al., 1997), to search cDNA and genomic databases at sites such as NCBI (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and AtDB (httpJ/genome-2o www.stanford.edu/Arabidopsis), for sequences homologous to those identified by the two-hybrid screen. Two EST clones homologous to the ICKI cDNA sequence have been identified in this way. A clone designated 96D15T7 possessed an extra 5' sequence to that of the contig assembled from the two-hybrid cDNA clones. A search of the AtDB database using ICKI cDNA
(SEQ ID
NO: 1) or genomic sequences indicates that the ICRI gene sequence is located in a BAC (bacterial 25 ~~ ~n,osome (genomic clone F26B6 (GenBank AC003040), which is 128 kb in length and is identified as being located on Arabidopsis thaliana chromosome II between cM
(http://genome-www3.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/AtDB/SeqRIMap?clone=F26B6).
Specific PCR primers may be synthesized and used to clone the genomic sequence spanning the entire coding region of a CDK inhibitor gene. For ICKI, three independent clones harboring the genomic sequence were identified in this way, sequenced and found to be identical.
Alignment of ICKI aenomic seauence with the ICKl cDNA sequence (SEQ ID NO: 1) (GenBank U94772, Wang et al., 199 revtals three introns. The genomic sequence in the axon regions is Identical to the contig of cDNA clones ezcept at nucleotide position 318, which is a T instead of a G
as in the reported cDNA sequence (Wang et al., 1997; a majority of the eDNA
clones had a G, while other clones had a T at this position). The eavstence of a T at this position in genomic DNA was verified by sequencing additional genomic clones. The longest open reading frame in the ICKI
cDNA sequence (SEQ ID NO: 1) predicts a polypeptide of 191 amino acids (SEQ ID
NO: 2) (Wang et al., 199'n. There is an in-frame translation STOP colon 12 nucleotides upstream of the first ATG. In addition, an in-frame translation termination colon was found 30 nucleotides down of the predicted tetminatioa colon.
CDK inhibitor in vitro assays: In vitro kinase assays may be used to demonstrate that a recombinant putative CDK inhibitor, such as ICKI protein, is an effective inhibitor of plant Cdc2-like kinases. Plant CDK inhibitors may not inhibit CDK from mammalian and yeast cells (Wang et al., 199. For example, recombinant ICKl is effective in vitro in inhibiting the histone H1 kinase activity of p13'"''-associated kinases from cultured cells of heterologous Brassica napes. In addition, it also inhibits the activity of such kinases from A.
thaliana seedlings, leavies and floral tissues in vitro.
Expression of CDK inhibitors: The expression of a CDK inhibitor in particular plant tissues may be assayed to determine, for example, whether that CDK inhibitor will have utility as a division or gmwth modulator when expressed in such tissues. For example, the expression of ICKl was analyzed in several different plant tissues. In general, the transcript abundance of ICKI
was relatively low and showed low degrees of variation compared with the housekeeping genes such as TUA4 (a tubulin-a gene) and GAPDH (glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase) of A.
thaliana. When leaves from plants of different ages were compared, the ICKI
level in sample LS
(for leaves of 5-week plants) was slightly higher. To verify the functional role of a putative CDK inhibitor in such tissues, the CDK activity may also be assayed.
Regulation of CDK inhibitors by phytohormones and environmental conditions:
Putative 2o CDK inhibitors may be assayed for suitable CDK inhibitor activity for use in the methods of the invention by a variety of tests. For example, induction of expression of the putative CDK
inhibitor gene by abscisic acid (ABA) , a phytohormone known to inhibit plant growth (Evans, 1984), and at low temperatures. For example, expression of the putative CDK
inhibitor gene, such as ICKl, in seedlings, such as A. thaliana seedlings, may be analyzed in response to treatments with ABA. For ICKI , data from an example assay showed that after 24 h, ABA and low temperature treatments increased ICKl transcript levels to about 3 times that of the control (no ABA and at 22°C) in 2-week seedlings. The expression of the putative CDK inhibitor gene may be quantified. For ICKl, a correlation coefficient was obtained for the relationship of cdc2a level, ICKI level and cdc2alICKI ratio with the Cdc2-like kinase activity. The level of cdc2a 1o expression was correlated with the level of Cdc2-like histone H1 kinase activity. The level of ICKI expression exhibited a weak negative correlation with kinase activity.
The correlation coefficient for the cdc2alICKI ratio with Cdc2-like kinase activity was similar to that for cdc2a with Cdc2-like kinase activity. Such results are consistent with CDK (in this example Cdc2 kinase) inhibitor activity in plant cells.
Direct Interaction of ICKI with Both Cdc2a and CycD3: CDK inhibitors for use in various aspects of the invention may be identified using a yeast two hybrid screening protocol with a variety of bait fusion protein sequences. For example, ICKI was independently cloned in a screen using A. thaliana CycD3 as the bait, indicating that ICK1 interacts with CycD3 in the two hybrid assay. To provide evidence confirming the interaction of a CDK
inhibitor with a target protein of interest, further binding assays may be conducted. For example, to test the interactions of ICK1, cdc2a and CycD3 cDNAs were transcribed and translated in an in vitro system. In vitro expressed Cdc2a and CycD3 proteins were incubated with recombinant Hisb ICK1 protein expressed in E. coli. Cdc2a and CycD3 bound to Ni-NTA beads only after they were incubated with recombinant ICK1. The amount of CycD3 bound to recombinant ICK1 protein was more than the control protein ATMPK2 which showed little binding despite the much higher input used. These results demonstrate that ICK1 is able to interact directly with both Cdc2a and CycD3. Similar assays may be used to identify CDK inhibitors capable of interacting with other cellular targets.
Mapping the Domains for ICKI Interaction with Cdc2a and CycD3: The regions of a CDK inhibitor that are functionally involved in interactions with other proteins may be mapped by deletion mapping using a variety of techniques, such as the yeast two hybrid systems and variations thereof. Such in vitro assay results may be verified by in vivo tests, since the persistence of interactions in the two hybrid system may be affected by possible alterations in functionality of plant proteins expressed in yeast. As an example of an in vitro assay, to determine the functional significance of the C-terminal domain and other regions of ICKI , three N-terminal and three C-terminal deletion mutants were assessed for their interactions with Cdc2a and CycD3 in the two-hybrid system. Overall, (3-galactosidase marker gene activation in the two hybrid system was stronger for the interaction of all ICK1 constructs with CycD3 compared to Cdc2a, indicative of a stronger or more persistent interaction between ICK1 and CycD3 in the two-hybrid system. Major shifts in ~3-galactosidase activity were observed when amino acid regions 3-72, 109-153 and 176-191 were deleted. An increase in activity was observed upon deletion of amino acids 3-72. In pairwise comparison, the deletion of amino acid regions 3-72, 73-108, 163-175 or 153-162 had comparable effects on the interactions of ICKI
with Cdc2a versus CycD3, as reflected by the marker gene expression, while the deletions of amino acid regions 109-153 and 176-191 had clearly differential effects. The most significant reduction in ~3-galactosidase activity for the interaction of ICK1 with CycD3 resulted from the deletion of amino acids 109-153, whereas the deletion of amino acids 176-191 had a more detrimental effect on the interaction with Cdc2a. The functional importance of a portion of a CDK
inhibitor may also be assayed by analyzing the portion of cDNA required for the recovery of clones by each bait construct in the two hybrid system. For example, the region spanning amino acids 109-153 of ICK1 for its interaction with CycD3 was supported by the analysis of the minimum cDNA length required for the recovery of clones by each bait construct. With CycD3 as the bait, the shortest ICKI cDNA was N-terminal deleted for amino acids 1-129, while with Cdc2a, seven clones with further deletions extending to amino acid 154 were also isolated. Thus, deletions extending beyond amino acid 130 rendered these clones unrecoverable by the two-hybrid screening using CycD3 as the bait. Taken together, the results indicate that, while the C-terminal domain (containing the consensus sequence with p27"'P') is most important for the interaction with Cdc2a, the amino acid region 109-153 perhaps with the C-terminal domain is important for the interaction with CycD3.
Arabidopsis transformation with ICKI constructs: A wide variety of transformation techniques may be used in accordance with the invention to introduce CDK
inhibitor genes into plants. In one aspect, the invention provides methods of assaying heterologous CDK inhibitor function in a model plant, such as Arabidopsis. For such assays, in one embodiment, transformation may be caned out by infiltration. For example, seeds (T1 generation) collected from infiltrated Arabidopsis plants may be surface-sterilized and placed onto MS medium containing 50 p.g/ml kanamycin. The antibiotic timentin may also be included in the medium to prevent any bacterial growth, which could occur due to Garner-over from the infiltration. The vast majority of germinating seedlings will not be transformed, and will became pale and to eventually stop growing, transformed seedlings will be green and display normal growth due to the presence of the selectable marker gene. After 4-5 weeks in the selection medium, transformants may be transferred to soil in pots. In the exemplary embodiment, the presence of the DNA insertion was confirmed by extracting the genomic DNA and then using it for PCR
amplification. In one example, while the non-transformed wild-type plant gave a negative signal, all twelve (12) plants selected for their resistance to kanamycin were positive for transforming DNA.
Effect of AP3-ICKl chimeric gene on petal and stamen development: Various aspects of the invention may be used to obtain a wide variety of phenotypic variations in plant morphology or other characteristics. For example, transformed A. thaliana plants carrying the AP3-ICKl construct displayed a range of phenotypes with regard to petal and stamen morphology (Table 1).
Such variation may be due to the insertion in alternative embodiments of the invention of the CDK inhibitor gene into different sites of the plant genome. In the example of modified petal development using ICK1, the plants may be classed into three groups: (1) no visible petals, (2) visible petals but reduced size and (3) visible petals with no apparent difference to those of non-transformed plants (Table 1). In terms of fertility, eleven out of twelve plants were male sterile.
These results demonstrate that tissue-specific expression of ICKI may be used to produce plants with modified petals and/or with male sterility. In some embodiments, the transgenic plants with male sterility may set seeds after pollination, using pollen from non-transformed plants, indicating that the female reproduction system is unaffected in these male sterile plants. Apart from these specific modifications, these transgenic plants otherwise grew and developed normally.
Table 1. Summary of phenotypes of A. thaliana plants transformed with AP3-ICKI
chimeric gene.

For example, T2 seeds of ICKI transformants were sterilized and placed onto the selective medium. In one such assay, T2 seeds of one to transformant (#2) showed 1:1 ratio of segregation between resistant (99) versus non-resistant (102) seedlings. As transformant #2 was male sterile, the T2 seeds were obtained by crosses using wild type pollen. This ratio indicates that there is one insertion in the genome of this transformant. As expected, T2 plants displayed the same phenotype as the corresponding T1 plants.
Increased ICKI expression in young floral buds is associated with phenotype changes:
To analyze ectopic ICKI expression in floral buds of transgenic AP3-ICKI
Arbidopsis plants, young floral buds were collected from developing inflorescence and RNA was extracted from the tissues samples of individual plants as described (Wang et al., 1995). The samples were prepared the same way for transgenic Arabidopsis plants displaying altered petal and anther phenotypes and for control wild type plants with normal petal and anther development. The RNA blotting and hybridization were performed as described above. The results from northern analysis of ICKI expression showed that the transgenic plants which had altered petal and anther l0 development also had a higher level of ICKl expression in the young floral buds that the control wild type plants. Similar results were obtained from using both the first generation (T1) and the second generation (T2) transgenic plant.
[We don't need a figure for these results, and the Norther pictures will not reproduce will for patent purposes, so I suggest we just state the results.]
Effect of ICKI on differentiated cells such as pollen: Expression of ICK1 can be directed to more differentiated cells such as pollen to determine its effect on differentiated cells to compare to effect on cells in proliferative tissue such as stamen primordia.
As an example, transgenic plants were obtained using Bgpl -ICKI chimeric gene construct.
Eighteen ( 18) such transgenic Arabidopsis plants were transferred to soil and grew to maturity.
All showed normal 2o development of flower and anthers, unlike transgenic plants with AP3-ICKI
construct most of which showed petal alteration and male sterility. The Bgpl-ICKI plants all set seeds without artificial pollination. As Bgpl promoter has been shown to be able to direct a high level of GUS
(beta-glucuronidase) gene expression in the pollen and tapetum of transgenic Arabidopsis plants (Xu et al., 1993), the observation that no significant male sterility phenotype developed in transgenic Bgpl-ICKl plants indicates that a differentiated cell such as pollen can tolerate a moderate level of ICK1 with no detrimental effect on its function.
Transgenic Brassica: In accordance with alternative embodiments of the invention, CDK
inhibitors may be used to modify a wide variety of plant species. The division and growth inhibiting activity of CDK inhibitors in Brassica is exemplified by the following results. The ICK1 cDNA coding region was fused in sense or anti-sense orientation to the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (a constitutive promoter). These constructs were tested in Brassica napus transformations. From two independent experiments, over 60 transformants were regenerated from the anti-sense construct while none was obtained from the sense construct, indicating that constitutive expression of the ICK1 CDK inhibitor terminated plant growth at a very early stage.
As another example, transgenic Brassica napus plants were obtained with AP3-ICKl construct. Some of the plants showed much reduced size of petals and significant reduction in seed setting, with one plant showing almost complete male sterility. These phynotype changes resemble, although to lesser extent, what was observed in the transgenic Arabidopsis plants.
Transgenic Brassica carinata plants were also obtained and showed similar changes of altered petals and fertility, as in transgenic Brassica napus plants. These results show clearly that ICKI
can functioning in a heterologous Brassica plant in a similar way as it does in a transgenic Arabidopsis plants and can be used to modify the growth and development of specific tissues or organs.
Interaction of ICKI with other proteins: CDK inhibitors may be used in various aspects of the invention to interact with a variety of regulatory components, such as other cell cycle proteins. For example, in some embodiments, it may be desirable to target a known regulatory moity with a CDK inhibitor. Accordingly, in one aspect of the invention, an assay is provided to determine if a CDK inhibitor interacts with a known protein. Such interactions may be analyzed by a variety of assays for protein-protein interactions including the yeast two-hybrid assay (e.g.
Phizicky and Fields, 1995; Malmqvist and Karlsson, 1997). For example, the full-length cDNA
of the gene to be analyzed may be cloned in a GAL4-binding domain vector (Kohalmi et al., 1997) using PCR and gene specific primers with flanking restriction sites.
Such constructs may be used to transform the yeast carrying the CDK inhibitor of interest, such as ICKl in a GAL4-activation domain vector. Using this approach, for example, the interactions of ICK1 with a number of cell cycle-related genes from A. thaliana were examined in accordance with the invention (Table 2). In these examples, the yeast two-hybrid assay results indicate that in particular embodiments of the invention, ICK1 protein may interact with Cdc2a but not with - 2~ -Cdc2b. Similarly, ICK1 may interact with D-class cyclins, CycDl, CycD2 and CycD3, while not interacting with A/B-class mitotic cyclins, CycA2, CycB 1 and CycB2 (Table 2).
The yeast two-hybrid assay results also indicate that ICK1 may not interact in some embodiments with PCNA, also a cell cycle protein, and ATMAP2, a kinase sharing some similarity with Cdc2 kinase.
Results such as these, indicating that ICKl interacts with the G1 cyclins and Cdc2a but not the mitotic cyclins and Cdc2b, indicate that a CDK inhibitor, such as ICKl, may in some embodiments be used in the regulation of cell cycle initiation during plant growth and differentiation.

The CDK inhibitors identified in screens using Cdc2a are designated herein as ICKs (for Interactors of Cdc2 Kmase) and those identified in screens using cyclins are designated ICNs (for Interactors of Cyclin). Some CDK inhibitors may be isolated independently finm both types of screens. The sequences of ICK2 (SEQ ID NO: ~, ICN4 (SEQ ID NO: 'n, ICN6 (SEQ ID NO: 8), and ICN7 (SEQ ID NO: 9) are shown in Figs 2 through 6. These genes share at least two functional properties with ICKl:
First, all of these genes encode proteins able to interact with either Cdc2a or a D-class cyclin or both. Such interactions may enable them to regulate the activity of plant CDKs in alternative embodiments of the invention.
Second, these ICK/ICN proteins all share some sequence similarity in the region of ICKl that is timctionally important in some embodiments for its interaction with Cdc2a and cyclin 83 (discussed above in the section on "domains for ICKl interactions with Cdc2a and cyclin b3"). These homologous genes or proteins may be used in some embodiments, in a manner similar to ICKl, to modulate plant growth and development. One or more such genes or proteins may be used in some embodiments alone or in combination to provide temporal and spatial regulation of cell cycle initiation and progressing during plant development in accordance with this invention.
Although various embodiments of the invention are disclosed herein, many adaptations and modifications may be made within the scope of the invention in accordance with the common general knowledge of those skilled in this art. Such modifications include the substitution of known equivalents for any aspect of the invention in order to achieve the same result in substantially the same way. For example, additional plant cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor genes useful in regulating morphogenesis may be disclosed using the screening methods of the invention, such genes may share functional homology with ICKI, while being sequence-divergent from ICKl. The following examples are illustrative only of various aspects or embodiments of the invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention provides methods of modifying plant or plant cell development.
In the context of the invention, the word 'development' encompasses a wide variety of biological process, including growth, morphogenesis, multiplication, enlargement, differentiation or 2o maturation of a cell or plant. In one aspect, the methods of the invention involve transforming a plant cell with a nucleic acid encoding a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor polypeptide, or an anti-sense construct complementary to such a nucleic acid, to produce a transformed plant cell;
and, growing the transformed plant cell, or progeny of the transformed plant cell, under conditions wherein the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor polypeptide, or the anti-sense construct, is expressed in the transformed plant cell or in the progeny of the transformed plant cell. A 'CDK
inhibitor polypeptide' is any polypeptide capable of inhibiting a CDK, preferably a CDK active during development of a plant or plant cell. The growing of the transformed plant cell or progeny of the transformed plant cell may be carried out to produce a transformed plant, such as by regenerating a plant from a transformed culture or by propagating or growing whole plants from transformed plant parts. The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor polypeptide, or anti-sense construct, may be expressed to modify the development of the transformed plant or progeny of the transformed plant. The term 'progeny', with reference to a plant, includes progeny produced to sexually or asexually (for example by tissue culture-based propagation).
The term 'growing' with reference to the transformed cells or plants includes all methods for growing and propagating cells or plants, such as tissue culture or horticultural means of propagating plants or plant parts.
In the following detailed description, various examples are set out of particular embodiments of the invention, together with experimental procedures that may be used to implement a wide variety of modifications and variations in the practice of the present invention.
In the context of the present invention, "promoter" means a sequence sufficient to direct transcription of a gene when the promoter is operably linked to the gene. The promoter is accordingly the portion of a gene containing DNA sequences that provide for the biding of RNA
polymerase and initiation of transcription. Promoter sequences are commonly, but not universally, located in the 5' non-coding regions of a gene. A promoter and a gene are "operably linked" when such sequences are functionally connected so as to permit gene expression mediated by the promoter. The term "operably linked" accordingly indicates that DNA segments are arranged so that they function in concert for their intended purposes, such as initiating transcription in the promoter to proceed through the coding segment of a gene to a terminator portion of the gene. Gene expression may occur in some instances when appropriate molecules (such as transcriptional activator proteins) are bound to the promoter.
Expression is the process of conversion of the information of a coding sequence of a gene into mRNA by transcription and subsequently into polypeptide (protein) by translation, as a result of which the protein is said to be expressed. As the term is used herein, a gene or nucleic acid is "expressible" if it is capable of _g_ expression under appropriate conditions in a particular host cell.
For the present invention, promoters may be used that provide for preferential gene expression within a specific organ or tissue, or during a specific period of development. For example, promoters may be used that are specific for leaf (Dunsmuir, et al Nucleic Acids Res, (1983) 11:4177-4183), root tips (Pokalsky, et al Nucleic Acids Res, (1989) 17:4661-4673), fruit (Peat, et al Plant Mol. Biol, (1989) 13:639-651; United States Patent No.

5,723,765 issued 3 March 1998 to Oliver et al.), or young flowers (Nilsson et al. 1998). Such promoters may, in some instances, be obtained from genomic clones of cDNAs. Depending upon the application of the present invention, those skilled in this art may choose a promoter for use in the invention which provides a desired expression pattern. Promoters demonstrating preferential transcriptional activity in plant tissues are, for example, described in European Patent Application EP-A 0 255 378 and International Patent Publication WO-A 9 113 980. Promoters may be identified from genes which have a differential pattern of expression in a specific tissue by screening a tissue of interest, for example, using methods described in United States Patent No. 4,943,674 and European Patent Application EP-A 0255378. The disclosure herein includes examples of this aspect of the invention, showing that plant tissues and organs can be modified 2o by transgenic expression of a plant CDK inhibitor.
Non-dividing plant cells may tolerate low level expression of CDK inhibitors, such as ICKl, in non-targeted tissues. Thus, the invention may be practiced in some embodiments using tissue specific promoters operably linked to CDK inhibitor encoding sequences, even when the promoter mediates a tolerable basal level of expression in other tissues.
Various aspects of the present invention emcompass nucleic acid or amino acid sequences that are homologous to other sequences. As the term is used herein, an amino acid or nucleic acid sequence is "homologous" to another sequence if the two sequences are substantially identical and the functional activity of the sequences is conserved (for example, both sequences function as or encode a cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor; as used herein, sequence conservation or identity does not infer evolutionary relatedness). Nucleic acid sequences may also be homologous if they encode substantially identical amino acid sequences, even if the nucleic acid sequences are not themselves substantially identical, for example as a result of the degeneracy of the genetic code.
Two amino acid or nucleic acid sequences are considered substantially identical if, when optimally aligned, they share at least about 75% sequence identity, preferably at least about 90%
sequence identity, and more preferably at least about 95% sequence identity.
Optimal alignment of sequences for comparisons of identity may be conducted using a variety of algorithms, such as the local homology algorithm of Smith and Waterman (1981) Adv. Appl. Math 2:
482, by the to homology alignment algorithm of Needleman and Wunsch (1970) J. Mol. Biol.
48:443, buy the search for similarity method of Pearson and Lipman (1988) Proc. Natl. Acad.
Sci. USA 85: 2444, and by computerized implementations of these algorithms (such as GAP, BESTFIT, FASTA and TFASTA in the Wisconsin Genetics Software Package, Genetics Computer Group, Madison, WI, U.S.A.). Sequence identity may also be determined using the BLAST algorithm, described in Altschul et al. (1990), J. Mol. Biol. 215:403-10 (using the published default settings). Software for performing BLAST analysis may be available through the National Center for Biotechnology Information (through the Internet at http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/). The BLAST
algorithm involves first identifying high scoring sequence pairs (HSPs) by identifying short words of length W in the query sequence that either match or satisfy some positive-valued threshold score T
2o when aligned with a word of the same length in a database sequence. T is referred to as the neighborhood word score threshold. Initial neighborhood word hits act as seeds for initiating searches to find longer HSPs. The word hits are extended in both directions along each sequence for as far as the cumulative alignment score can be increased. Extension of the word hits in each direction is halted when the following parameters are met: the cumulative alignment score falls off by the quantity X from its maximum achieved value; the cumulative score goes to zero or below, due to the accumulation of one or more negative-scoring residue alignments; or the end of either sequence is reached. The BLAST algorithm parameters W, T and X
determine the sensitivity and speed of the alignment. The BLAST program may use as defaults a word length (W) of 11, the BLOSUM62 scoring matrix (Henikoff and Henikoff (1992) Proc.
Natl. Acad. Sci.
USA 89: 10915-10919) alignments (B) of 50, expectaion (E) of 10, M=5, N=4, and a compaison of both strands. One measure of the statistical similarity between two sequences using the BLAST algorithm is the smallest sum probability (P(N)), which provides an indication of the probability by which a match between two nucleotide or amino acid sequences would occur by chance. In alternative embodiments of the invention, nucleotide or amino acid sequences are considered substantially identical if the smallest sum probability in a comparison of the test sequences is less than about 1, preferably less than about 0.1, more preferably less than about 0.01, and most preferably less than about 0.001.
An alternative indication that two nucleic acid sequences are substantially identical is that the two sequences hybridize to each other under moderately stringent, or preferably stringent, 1o conditions. Hybridization to filter-bound sequences under moderately stringent conditions may, for example, be performed in 0.5 M NaHP04, 7% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 1 mM EDTA at 65°C, and washing in 0.2 x SSC/0.1% SDS at 42°C (see Ausubel, et al. (eds), 1989, Current Protocols in Molecular Biology, Vol. 1, Green Publishing Associates, Inc., and John Wiley &
Sons, Inc., New York, at p. 2.10.3). Alternatively, hybridization to filter-bound sequences under 15 stringent conditions may, for example, be performed in 0.5 M NaHP04, 7%
SDS, 1 mM EDTA
at 65 °C, and washing in 0.1 x SSC/0.1% SDS at 68°C (see Ausubel, et al. (eds), 1989, supra).
Hybridization conditions may be modified in accordance with known methods depending on the sequence of interest (see Tijssen, 1993, Laboratory Techniques in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology -- Hybridization with Nucleic Acid Probes, Part I, Chapter 2 "Overview of principles of 2o hybridization and the strategy of nucleic acid probe assays", Elsevier, New York). Generally, stringent conditions are selected to be about 5 °C lower than the thermal melting point for the specific sequence at a defined ionic strength and pH.
An alternative indication that two amino acid sequences are substantially identical is that one peptide is specifically immunologically reactive with antibodies that are also specifically 2s immunoreactive against the other peptide. Antibodies are specifically immunoreactive to a peptide if the antibodies bind preferentially to the peptide and do not bind in a significant amount to other proteins present in the sample, so that the preferential binding of the antibody to the peptide is detectable in an immunoassay and distinguishable from non-specific binding to other peptides. Specific immunoreactivity of antibodies to peptides may be assessed using a variety of immunoassay formats, such as solid-phase ELISA immunoassays for selecting monoclonal antibodies specifically immunoreactive with a protein (see Harlow and Lane (1988) Antibodies, A Laboratory Manual, Cold Spring Harbor Publications, New York).
The cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors of the present invention, and the genes encoding those inhibitors, may include non-naturally occurnng sequences, such as functionally active fragments of naturally occurnng sequences. For example, fragments of ICKI, or amino acid sequences homologous to those fragments, that have cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitory activity may be used in some embodiments of the invention. The invention provides methods for identifying such fragments, for example by deletion mapping of active cyclin-dependent kinase to inhibitors. As used herein the term "cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor"
therefore includes any polypeptide capable of functioning to inhibit a cyclin-dependent kinase and may be used to modify the growth or development of the plant, the invention similarly encompasses nucleic acid sequences encoding such polypeptides.
As used herein to describe nucleic acid or amino acid sequences the term "heterologous"
refers to molecules or portions of molecules, such as DNA sequences, that are artificially introduced into a particular host cell. Heterologous DNA sequences may for example be introduced into a host cell by transformation. Such heterologous molecules may include sequences derived from the host cell. Heterologous DNA sequences may become integrated into the host cell genome, either as a result of the original transformation of the host cells, or as the 2o result of subsequent recombination events.
The specificity of a CDK inhibitor may be assayed in vivo. For example, the ICKI coding sequence was fused to a known promoter which directed gene expression in pollen but not in stamen primordia. The transformants are normal and fertile. This result indicates that in specific embodiments of the invention, expression of ICKI is not generally toxic to tissues other than the target tissue. Phenotypes may be obtained, for example with the exemplified transformants, that are due to specific action of the CDK inhibitor, such as ICKI protein, on cell division. In such embodiments, the CDK inhibitor, such as ICKl, may be used as a specific tool to modify growth or development of meristematic tissues without materially affecting other processes.
In some embodiments, there may be important advantages to using a CDK
inhibitor gene for genetic engineering in plants, particularly to control selected cell lineages, rather than using genes encoding cytotoxins. In accordance with the invention, the CDK inhibitor action may be made to be specific only to certain cells, avoiding the non-specific destruction of plant cells. This specificity may be achieved partly because non-dividing plant cells in non-targeted tissues may have better tolerance of low level expression of a CDK inhibitor than a cytotoxin. Thus, in accordance with the invention it may be possible to use tissue specific promoters for expressing CDK inhibitors when such promoters still have a tolerable basal level of expression in other tissues. This may usefully expand the range of promoters available for use in the invention, since to most tissue-specific promoters have some levels of expression in other tissues in addition to a high level of expression in a particular tissue. In contrast, expression of a potent cytotoxic gene in one tissue, even at a low concentrations, can have a negative impact on growth and development in other tissues.
In an alternative aspect of the invention, the down-regulation of CDK
inhibitors, such as ICK1, may be used to enhance growth during plant development. Such growth enhancement may be tissue-specific. For example, anti-sense oligonucleotides may be expressed to down-regulate expression of CDK inhibitors. The expression of such anti-sense constructs may be made to be tissue-specific by operably linking anti-sense encoding sequences to tissue-specific promoters.
Anti-sense oligonucleotides, including anti-sense RNA molecules and anti-sense DNA
molecules, act to block the translation of mRNA by binding to targeted mRNA
and inhibiting protein translation from the bound mRNA. For example, anti-sense oligonucleotides complementary to regions of a DNA sequence encoding a CDK inhibitor, such as ICK1, may be expressed in transformed plant cells during development to down-regulate the CDK inhibitor.
Alternative methods of down-regulating CDK inhibitor gene expression may include the use of ribozymes or other enzymatic RNA molecules (such as hammerhead RNA structures) that are capable of catalyzing the cleavage of RNA (as disclosed in U.S. Patent Nos.
4,987,071 and 5,591,610). The mechanism of ribozyme action generally involves sequence specific hybridization of the ribozyme molecule to complementary target RNA , followed by endonucleolytic cleavage.
Arabidopsis thaliana "Columbia" may be used as a convenient model system for identifying CDK inhibitors that are useful in various embodiments of the present invention.
Arabidopsis plants are generally grown in pots placed in growth chambers (20°C 16h/8h of day/night). Other plants may also of course be used in various embodiments of the invention in accordance with known growth and transformation techniques.
Yeast two-hybrid cloning and assay techniques may be used to identify and assess CDK
inhibitors useful in the present invention. For example, a cDNA library may be made using poly (A) mRNA isolated from whole plants at different stages of development and cloned in a suitable vector, such as Gal4 TA- (transcription-activation domain) pPC86 (Chevray and Nathans, 1992;
to available from GIBCOBRL Life Technologies) or pBI771- a modified pPC86 (Koholmi et al., 1997). The cDNA of the gene (such as cdc2a, cyclin 82 and cyclin 83) to be used for screening the library may be cloned in a suitable vector, such as the Gal4 DB- (DNA-binding domain) vector. The yeast strain, such as MaV203 or YPB2, harboring the construct may be transformed using the library DNA.
~5 In one example, for analysis of Cdc2a interactions, a total of 1.8 X
10'transformants were subjected to two-hybrid selection on supplemented synthetic dextrose medium lacking leucine, tryptophan and histidine but containing 5 mM 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole.
The selected colonies were assayed for (3-galactosidase activity using standard methods.
DNAs were isolated from positive clones and used to transform E. coli. Clones harboring the TA-fusion cDNAs were 2o identified by PCR and plasmids were then isolated for DNA sequencing.
Interactions in the yeast two-hybrid system may, for example, be analyzed by either filter assay (Chevray and Nathans, 1992) using X-gal as the substrate or by a quantification assay using ONPG (ortho-nitrophenyl-beta-D-galactoside) as the substrate (Reynolds and Lundlad, 1994). Three or more independent transformants may be used for each interaction.
25 Standard methods are available for the preparation of constructs for use in identifying and characterizing CDK inhibitors useful in various embodiments of the invention.
General molecular techniques may for example be performed by procedures generally described by Ausubel et al. (1995). Alternative equivalent methods or variations thereof may be used in accordance with the general knowledge of those skilled in this art.
In one example, the AP3 promoter was cloned by the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from Arabidopsis thaliana "Columbia" gtnomic DNA, on the basis of the published sequence (Irish and Yamamoto, 1995; GenBank Accession U30729). The promoter was cloned in a modi-fied binary vector pBI121 (Clontech). IC1C1 cDNA (SEQ ID NO: 1)(Wan= et al., lgg'n was similarly amplified by PCR and transcrzptionaily fi~sed with the AP3 promoter and the chimeric gene ends with a nopaline sythase terminator. As a comparison and to determine the effect ICKI on differentiated cells such as pollen, the same ICKI nucleotide sequence used in AP3-ICKI fusion was used in fusion with a Brassica campestris anther-specific promoter Bgpl (Xu et al. 1993;
1o GenBank Accession X68210). The Bgpl promoter has been shown to be able to direct a high level of GUS (beta-glucuronidase) gene expression in the pollen and tapetum of transgenic Arabidopsis plants (Xu et al., 1993). The resulting plasmids were introduced into Agrobactrium tumefaciens strain GV3141 (bearing helper plasmid pMP90; Koncz and Schell 1986).
In accordance with various aspects of the invention, plant cells may be transformed with 15 heterologous nucleic acids. Transformation techniques that may be employed include plant cell membrane disruption by electroporation, microinjection and polyethylene glycol based transformation (such as are disclosed in Paszkowski et al. EMBO J. 3:2717 (1984); Fromm et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 82:5824 (1985); Rogers et al., Methods Enzymol.
118:627 (1986);
and in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,684,611; 4,801,540; 4,743,548 and 5,231,019), ballistic transformation 2o such as DNA particle bombardment (for example as disclosed in Klein, et al., Nature 327: 70 (1987); Gordon-Karnm, et al. "The Plant Cell" 2:603 (1990); and in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,945,050;
5,015,580; 5,149,655 and 5,466,587); Agrobacterium mediated transformation methods (such as those disclosed in Horsch et al. Science 233: 496 (1984); Fraley et al., Proc.
Nat'1 Acad Sci.
USA 80:4803 (1983); and U.S. Patent Nos. 4,940,838 and 5,464,763).
25 Transformed plant cells may be cultured to regenerate whole plants having the transformed genotype and display a desired phenotype, as for example modified by the expression of a heterologous CDK inhibitor during growth or development. A
variety of plant culture techniques may be used to regenerate whole plants, such as are described in Evans et al.

Standard techniques may be used for plant transformation, such as transformation of Arabidopsis. In one example, the AP3-ICKI and Bgpl-ICKl constructs were tested in A.
thaliana by in planta transformation techniques. Wild type (WT) A. thaliana seeds of ecotype "Columbia" were planted in soiled 4" pots and plants grew in controlled growth chamber or greenhouse. The vacuum infiltration method of in planta transformation (Bechtold et al., 1993) was used to transform A. thaliana plants with overnight culture of A.
tumefacian strain GV3101 bearing both the helper nopline plasmid and the binary construct containing the described 1o chimeric gene. pMP90 is a disarmed Ti plasmid with intact vir region acting in traps, gentamycin and kanamycin selection markers as described in Koncz and Schell (1986).
Following infiltration, plants were grown to maturity and seeds (T1) were collected each pod individually.
Seeds were surface-sterilized and screened on selective medium containing 50 mg/L kanamycin with or without 200 mg/L timentin. After about four weeks on selection medium, the non-transformed seedlings died. The transformed seedlings were transferred to soil in pots. Leaf DNA
was isolated (Edwards et al., 1991) and analyzed by PCR for the presence of the DNA insertion.
Genomic DNA was also isolated and used in Southern hybridization (Southern, 1975) to determine the copy number of the inserted sequence in a given transformant. To determine the segregation, T2 seeds were collected from T1 plants. Wherever the T1 plant was male sterile, 2o crosses was made using the WT A. thaliana pollen to obtain seeds. As described, T2 seeds were surface-sterilized and screened on selective medium.
Alternative embodiments of the invention may make use of techniques for transformation of Brassica. Such as transformation of B. napus cv. Westar and B. carinata cv.
Dorolla or breeding line C90-1088 by co-cultivation of cotyledonary petioles or hypocotyl explants with A.
tumefaciens bearing the plasmids described herein. Transformation of B. napus plants may, for example, be performed according to the method by Moloney et al. (1989).
Modifications of that method may include the introduction of a 7-day explant-recovery period following co-cultivation, on MS medium with the hormone benzyladenine (BA), and the antibiotic timentin for the elimination of Agrobacterium. Transformation of B. carinata plants may be performed according to the method by Babic et al. (1998). Cotyledonary petiole explants may be dipped in suspension of Agrobacterium bearing the desired constructs and placed on 7-cm filter paper (Whitman no. 1 ) on top of the regeneration medium for 2 days. After co-cultivation, explants may be transferred onto the selection medium containing SO mg/L kanamycin.
Regenerated green shoots may first be transfen~ed to a medium to allow elongation and then to a rooting medium all containing 50 mglL kanamycin. Putative transformants with roots (TO) may be transferred to soil. Genomic DNA may be isolated from developing leaves for PCR and Southern analyses.
Seeds (T 1 ) from transgenic plants may then be harvested.
Transgenic plants may be observed and characterized for the presence (absence of) the desired phenotypic trait, such as petals, male sterility and ability to set seeds after pollination using wild type pollen. For example, to determine the development of floral organs, flowers at different stages of development may be dissected and examined under a stereomicmscope. Floral samples may also be examined using scanning electron microscope for more defined morphology of floral organ meristems and their development.
Genomic clones of sequences encoding putative CDK inhibitors may be cloned using standard techniques. For example, to clone a genomic ICK1 encoding sequence, genomic DNA
may be isolated from two-week old A. thaliana seedlings according to a procedure described (Lohdi et al., 1994). In one example, the genomic sequence spanning the ICKI
cDNA se4uence (SEQ ID NO: 1) was amplfdied by 30 cycles of PCR (polymerise chain reaction) using sequence-specific primers with incorporated restriction sites. Pju DNA polymerise (Stratagene), which has a higher replication fidelity than the Taq DNA polymerise, may be used. 'Ihe amplified DNA fragment may be cloned into a suitable vector, such as pGEMSZf(+) (promega). Plasmids may then be purified and sequenced.
In one example, an ICKl cDNA isolated from the two hybrid screening was cloned in frame into pBI786, a modified His6-tagged vector derived finm pRSETB
(Invitrogen) (Wang et al., 1997). Recombinant His6-ICKI was purified from E. coli using Ni-NTA
agarose resin (QIAGEN) according to manufacturer's instructions except that the final washing was with buffer D, pH 6.0 and the protein was eluted with 2 ml buffer D, pH 4Ø The eluent was renatured by diluting with lOX volume of a renaturing buffer (10 mM Tris pH 7.5, S00 mM
NaCI, 400 mM
arginine HCI, 20 pM MgCl2, 20 ~M ZnAc and 0.1 % Tween 20) and dialysed in the same buffer (500 ml per 2 ml sample) at 4°C overnight. The protein samples may be concentrated with Filtron l OK concentrators. The sample was then dialyzed at 4°C for 3 h against 1000 volumes of the kinase assay buffer (see below) containing 0.4 mM DTT and each (0.4 pg/ml) of the protease inhibitors soybean trypsin inhibitor, antipain and apotinin. The protein was stored at -80 °C.
Kinase assays may be useful in some aspects of the invention, for example to assay the function of CDK inhibitors on particular kinases. For example, kinases may be purified from A.
thaliana tissues or cultured B. napus cells. Plant materials may be homogenized in 2 ml per gram tissue of ice cold extraction buffer consisting of 25 mM Tris pH 8.0, 100 mM
NaCI, 10 mM
1o DTT, 5 mM NaF, 1 mM Na3V04, 1 mM [3-glycerophosphate, 2.5 mM EDTA, 400 ~g/ml AEBSF
[4-(2-aminoethyl)-enzensulfonyl fluoride], 1 pg/ml leupeptin and 1 ~g/ml pepstatin. The homogenate was centrifuged at 12,OOOg at 4°C for 30 min. The supernatants may be used to purify Cdc2-like protein kinases using pl3s°°'-conjugated agarose beads (Oncogene Sciences).
The required amount of supernatant (150 pg protein for each reaction) was added to the beads is and tumbled at 4°C for 2 h. The beads may be washed twice in a washing buffer consisting of 50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 250 mM NaCI, 0.1 % NP-40, 2.5 mM EDTA, 1 mM DTT and inhibitor cocktail of (in final concentrations) 10 ~g/ml apotinin, 10 pg/ml antipain, 10 ~g/ml soybean trypsin inhibitor, 10 mM (3-glycerophosphate, 1 mM NaF and 0.2 mM Na3V04. Beads may then be washed twice in the kinase assay buffer (50 mM Tris pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCI, 2 mM
EGTA, 2 mM
2o DTT and the inhibitor cocktail). For inhibition assays, the recombinant protein was added to the reactions and incubated (tumbling slowly) for 1.5 h at 4°C. The kinase reaction was initiated by adding 1 pg/~1 histone H1 (Sigma), 25 pM ATP and 0.05 pCi/ul 32P-y-ATP (final concentrations), and stopped after 20 min incubation by adding the sample buffer. Denatured supernatant was resolved by SDS-PAGE.
2s RNA isolation and northern blotting analysis may be useful in various embodiments of the invention. For example, to analyze ICKl expression during plant development, various tissues may be taken from Arabidopsis plants. To analyse the effects of ABA
and low temperature, seedlings may be treated as described (Wang et al., 1995).
Briefly, seedlings (12 days) grown in pots may be cleared of soil with water, then floated in O.1X
strength MS medium without sucrose and hormones. Low temperature treatment was at 5°C for 24 h. ABA treatment was carried out in a solution containing 50 ~,M ABA. Seedling samples may be removed after various treatment times. Total RNA was isolated using TRIzoI reagent (GIBCO
BRL). For northern analysis, the indicated amount of RNA was fractionated in a 1.2%
agarose gel and transferred onto Hybond-N+ nylon membrane (Amersham). The RNA was crosslinked to the membrane by UV-light (Stratalinker, Stratagene) and hybridized with 32P-labeled probes. The membranes may be wrapped and used to expose Hyperfilm MP (Amersham) film.
Membranes may be stripped by treating with a boiling solution of O.1X SSC and 0.1% SDS
for 5 min.
Quantification of hybridized signal was performed using Molecular Dynamics PhosphorImager to and the accompanying software.
In Vitro binding assays may be useful in various aspects of the invention, for example to assay the interaction of a CDK inhibitor, or fragments of a CDK inhibitor, and a particular kinase. As an example of such an approach, 35S-Met labeled Cdc2a, CycD3 and proteins may be expressed from a T7 promoter construct using an in vitro coupled rabbit reticulocyte transcription/translation system ('TNT', Promega). Ni+-NTA beads (Qiagen) may be equilibrated and blocked in NETN buffer lacking EDTA (NTN) (Bai et al., 1996), and supplemented with 2 mg/ml BSA. Equilibrated beads may be incubated with Hisb ICK1 (5 ~.g for each 10 pl beads) in 1 ml of NTN buffer for 2 h with tumbling at 10°C
followed by washing with 2 X 1 ml NTN buffer. Binding experiments may be carried out in a total volume of 100 pl NTN
2o containing 10 p,l beads, plus 5 ~l 35S-Met labeled protein. The binding reaction was incubated at 10°C for 2 h, followed by washing with 3 X 0.5 ml NTN buffer. Washed beads may be eluted with 10 p,l SDS-containing denaturing buffer at 100°C for 5 min, and bound 35S-Met labeled proteins analyzed by SDS-PAGE. Gels may be imbibed with a fluorography enhancer ('Amplify', Amersham) prior to drying and exposure to X-ray film.
Deletion constructs may be useful for domain mapping to determine the functional domains of a CDK inhibitor. For example, N-terminal deletion constructs of ICK1 were made using cDNAs with deletions of various lengths from the N-terminal end. The C-terminal deletion constructs were prepared by PCR using Pfu DNA polymerase with sequence-specific primers and the resulting DNA fragments were cloned into the yeast two-hybrid vector pBI771 (Kohalmi et al., 1997). The deletion clones may be verified by DNA sequencing. The constructs may be used to transform a suitable yeast strain. In one such example, yeast strain YPB2 harboring either edc2a or CycD3 cloned in the BD- (binding domain) vector was transformed with deletion constructs. Interactions in the yeast two-hybrid system may then, for example, be analyzed by X-gal filter assay (Chevray aad Nathans, 1992) and by liquid culture assays for relative ~i-galactosidase activity (for example using the modified procedure of Reynolds and Lundlad, 1994). Three or more independent transformants may be used for each interaction.
Sequence Analyses: Sequence analyses, including determination of sequence homology, may be performed using a variety of software, such as LASERGENE (DNASTAR).
Database 1o searches may also use a variety of software tools, such as the BLAST
program (NCBn.
Analysis of CDK inhibitor cDNA Clones and Genomic Sequences: The yeast two-hybrid system (Fields and Song, 1989; Kohalmi et al., 1997) may be used to identify genes, such as ICKl , that encode inhibitar proteins able to interact with the plant cyclin-dependent kinases, such as Cdc2 kinase, for use in the present invention. For example, among the 68 ICK 'nteractors of 15 ~dc2 K'lnase) clones identified using Cdc2a as the bait in a yeast two hybrid system (Wang et al., 1997), 55 represented various lengths of ICKI, 7 of ICK2 and 6 of ICK3. A
contig sequence for homologous clones disclosed by the yeast two hybrid assay may be used, as was the contig sequence for ICKI cDNA (Wang et al., 1997), to search cDNA and genomic databases at sites such as NCBI (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) and AtDB (httpJ/genome-2o www.stanford.edu/Arabidopsis), for sequences homologous to those identified by the two-hybrid screen. Two EST clones homologous to the ICKI cDNA sequence have been identified in this way. A clone designated 96D15T7 possessed an extra 5' sequence to that of the contig assembled from the two-hybrid cDNA clones. A search of the AtDB database using ICKI cDNA
(SEQ ID
NO: 1) or genomic sequences indicates that the ICRI gene sequence is located in a BAC (bacterial 25 ~~ ~n,osome (genomic clone F26B6 (GenBank AC003040), which is 128 kb in length and is identified as being located on Arabidopsis thaliana chromosome II between cM
(http://genome-www3.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/AtDB/SeqRIMap?clone=F26B6).
Specific PCR primers may be synthesized and used to clone the genomic sequence spanning the entire coding region of a CDK inhibitor gene. For ICKI, three independent clones harboring the genomic sequence were identified in this way, sequenced and found to be identical.
Alignment of ICKI aenomic seauence with the ICKl cDNA sequence (SEQ ID NO: 1) (GenBank U94772, Wang et al., 199 revtals three introns. The genomic sequence in the axon regions is Identical to the contig of cDNA clones ezcept at nucleotide position 318, which is a T instead of a G
as in the reported cDNA sequence (Wang et al., 1997; a majority of the eDNA
clones had a G, while other clones had a T at this position). The eavstence of a T at this position in genomic DNA was verified by sequencing additional genomic clones. The longest open reading frame in the ICKI
cDNA sequence (SEQ ID NO: 1) predicts a polypeptide of 191 amino acids (SEQ ID
NO: 2) (Wang et al., 199'n. There is an in-frame translation STOP colon 12 nucleotides upstream of the first ATG. In addition, an in-frame translation termination colon was found 30 nucleotides down of the predicted tetminatioa colon.
CDK inhibitor in vitro assays: In vitro kinase assays may be used to demonstrate that a recombinant putative CDK inhibitor, such as ICKI protein, is an effective inhibitor of plant Cdc2-like kinases. Plant CDK inhibitors may not inhibit CDK from mammalian and yeast cells (Wang et al., 199. For example, recombinant ICKl is effective in vitro in inhibiting the histone H1 kinase activity of p13'"''-associated kinases from cultured cells of heterologous Brassica napes. In addition, it also inhibits the activity of such kinases from A.
thaliana seedlings, leavies and floral tissues in vitro.
Expression of CDK inhibitors: The expression of a CDK inhibitor in particular plant tissues may be assayed to determine, for example, whether that CDK inhibitor will have utility as a division or gmwth modulator when expressed in such tissues. For example, the expression of ICKl was analyzed in several different plant tissues. In general, the transcript abundance of ICKI
was relatively low and showed low degrees of variation compared with the housekeeping genes such as TUA4 (a tubulin-a gene) and GAPDH (glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase) of A.
thaliana. When leaves from plants of different ages were compared, the ICKI
level in sample LS
(for leaves of 5-week plants) was slightly higher. To verify the functional role of a putative CDK inhibitor in such tissues, the CDK activity may also be assayed.
Regulation of CDK inhibitors by phytohormones and environmental conditions:
Putative 2o CDK inhibitors may be assayed for suitable CDK inhibitor activity for use in the methods of the invention by a variety of tests. For example, induction of expression of the putative CDK
inhibitor gene by abscisic acid (ABA) , a phytohormone known to inhibit plant growth (Evans, 1984), and at low temperatures. For example, expression of the putative CDK
inhibitor gene, such as ICKl, in seedlings, such as A. thaliana seedlings, may be analyzed in response to treatments with ABA. For ICKI , data from an example assay showed that after 24 h, ABA and low temperature treatments increased ICKl transcript levels to about 3 times that of the control (no ABA and at 22°C) in 2-week seedlings. The expression of the putative CDK inhibitor gene may be quantified. For ICKl, a correlation coefficient was obtained for the relationship of cdc2a level, ICKI level and cdc2alICKI ratio with the Cdc2-like kinase activity. The level of cdc2a 1o expression was correlated with the level of Cdc2-like histone H1 kinase activity. The level of ICKI expression exhibited a weak negative correlation with kinase activity.
The correlation coefficient for the cdc2alICKI ratio with Cdc2-like kinase activity was similar to that for cdc2a with Cdc2-like kinase activity. Such results are consistent with CDK (in this example Cdc2 kinase) inhibitor activity in plant cells.
Direct Interaction of ICKI with Both Cdc2a and CycD3: CDK inhibitors for use in various aspects of the invention may be identified using a yeast two hybrid screening protocol with a variety of bait fusion protein sequences. For example, ICKI was independently cloned in a screen using A. thaliana CycD3 as the bait, indicating that ICK1 interacts with CycD3 in the two hybrid assay. To provide evidence confirming the interaction of a CDK
inhibitor with a target protein of interest, further binding assays may be conducted. For example, to test the interactions of ICK1, cdc2a and CycD3 cDNAs were transcribed and translated in an in vitro system. In vitro expressed Cdc2a and CycD3 proteins were incubated with recombinant Hisb ICK1 protein expressed in E. coli. Cdc2a and CycD3 bound to Ni-NTA beads only after they were incubated with recombinant ICK1. The amount of CycD3 bound to recombinant ICK1 protein was more than the control protein ATMPK2 which showed little binding despite the much higher input used. These results demonstrate that ICK1 is able to interact directly with both Cdc2a and CycD3. Similar assays may be used to identify CDK inhibitors capable of interacting with other cellular targets.
Mapping the Domains for ICKI Interaction with Cdc2a and CycD3: The regions of a CDK inhibitor that are functionally involved in interactions with other proteins may be mapped by deletion mapping using a variety of techniques, such as the yeast two hybrid systems and variations thereof. Such in vitro assay results may be verified by in vivo tests, since the persistence of interactions in the two hybrid system may be affected by possible alterations in functionality of plant proteins expressed in yeast. As an example of an in vitro assay, to determine the functional significance of the C-terminal domain and other regions of ICKI , three N-terminal and three C-terminal deletion mutants were assessed for their interactions with Cdc2a and CycD3 in the two-hybrid system. Overall, (3-galactosidase marker gene activation in the two hybrid system was stronger for the interaction of all ICK1 constructs with CycD3 compared to Cdc2a, indicative of a stronger or more persistent interaction between ICK1 and CycD3 in the two-hybrid system. Major shifts in ~3-galactosidase activity were observed when amino acid regions 3-72, 109-153 and 176-191 were deleted. An increase in activity was observed upon deletion of amino acids 3-72. In pairwise comparison, the deletion of amino acid regions 3-72, 73-108, 163-175 or 153-162 had comparable effects on the interactions of ICKI
with Cdc2a versus CycD3, as reflected by the marker gene expression, while the deletions of amino acid regions 109-153 and 176-191 had clearly differential effects. The most significant reduction in ~3-galactosidase activity for the interaction of ICK1 with CycD3 resulted from the deletion of amino acids 109-153, whereas the deletion of amino acids 176-191 had a more detrimental effect on the interaction with Cdc2a. The functional importance of a portion of a CDK
inhibitor may also be assayed by analyzing the portion of cDNA required for the recovery of clones by each bait construct in the two hybrid system. For example, the region spanning amino acids 109-153 of ICK1 for its interaction with CycD3 was supported by the analysis of the minimum cDNA length required for the recovery of clones by each bait construct. With CycD3 as the bait, the shortest ICKI cDNA was N-terminal deleted for amino acids 1-129, while with Cdc2a, seven clones with further deletions extending to amino acid 154 were also isolated. Thus, deletions extending beyond amino acid 130 rendered these clones unrecoverable by the two-hybrid screening using CycD3 as the bait. Taken together, the results indicate that, while the C-terminal domain (containing the consensus sequence with p27"'P') is most important for the interaction with Cdc2a, the amino acid region 109-153 perhaps with the C-terminal domain is important for the interaction with CycD3.
Arabidopsis transformation with ICKI constructs: A wide variety of transformation techniques may be used in accordance with the invention to introduce CDK
inhibitor genes into plants. In one aspect, the invention provides methods of assaying heterologous CDK inhibitor function in a model plant, such as Arabidopsis. For such assays, in one embodiment, transformation may be caned out by infiltration. For example, seeds (T1 generation) collected from infiltrated Arabidopsis plants may be surface-sterilized and placed onto MS medium containing 50 p.g/ml kanamycin. The antibiotic timentin may also be included in the medium to prevent any bacterial growth, which could occur due to Garner-over from the infiltration. The vast majority of germinating seedlings will not be transformed, and will became pale and to eventually stop growing, transformed seedlings will be green and display normal growth due to the presence of the selectable marker gene. After 4-5 weeks in the selection medium, transformants may be transferred to soil in pots. In the exemplary embodiment, the presence of the DNA insertion was confirmed by extracting the genomic DNA and then using it for PCR
amplification. In one example, while the non-transformed wild-type plant gave a negative signal, all twelve (12) plants selected for their resistance to kanamycin were positive for transforming DNA.
Effect of AP3-ICKl chimeric gene on petal and stamen development: Various aspects of the invention may be used to obtain a wide variety of phenotypic variations in plant morphology or other characteristics. For example, transformed A. thaliana plants carrying the AP3-ICKl construct displayed a range of phenotypes with regard to petal and stamen morphology (Table 1).
Such variation may be due to the insertion in alternative embodiments of the invention of the CDK inhibitor gene into different sites of the plant genome. In the example of modified petal development using ICK1, the plants may be classed into three groups: (1) no visible petals, (2) visible petals but reduced size and (3) visible petals with no apparent difference to those of non-transformed plants (Table 1). In terms of fertility, eleven out of twelve plants were male sterile.
These results demonstrate that tissue-specific expression of ICKI may be used to produce plants with modified petals and/or with male sterility. In some embodiments, the transgenic plants with male sterility may set seeds after pollination, using pollen from non-transformed plants, indicating that the female reproduction system is unaffected in these male sterile plants. Apart from these specific modifications, these transgenic plants otherwise grew and developed normally.
Table 1. Summary of phenotypes of A. thaliana plants transformed with AP3-ICKI
chimeric gene.

For example, T2 seeds of ICKI transformants were sterilized and placed onto the selective medium. In one such assay, T2 seeds of one to transformant (#2) showed 1:1 ratio of segregation between resistant (99) versus non-resistant (102) seedlings. As transformant #2 was male sterile, the T2 seeds were obtained by crosses using wild type pollen. This ratio indicates that there is one insertion in the genome of this transformant. As expected, T2 plants displayed the same phenotype as the corresponding T1 plants.
Increased ICKI expression in young floral buds is associated with phenotype changes:
To analyze ectopic ICKI expression in floral buds of transgenic AP3-ICKI
Arbidopsis plants, young floral buds were collected from developing inflorescence and RNA was extracted from the tissues samples of individual plants as described (Wang et al., 1995). The samples were prepared the same way for transgenic Arabidopsis plants displaying altered petal and anther phenotypes and for control wild type plants with normal petal and anther development. The RNA blotting and hybridization were performed as described above. The results from northern analysis of ICKI expression showed that the transgenic plants which had altered petal and anther l0 development also had a higher level of ICKl expression in the young floral buds that the control wild type plants. Similar results were obtained from using both the first generation (T1) and the second generation (T2) transgenic plant.
[We don't need a figure for these results, and the Norther pictures will not reproduce will for patent purposes, so I suggest we just state the results.]
Effect of ICKI on differentiated cells such as pollen: Expression of ICK1 can be directed to more differentiated cells such as pollen to determine its effect on differentiated cells to compare to effect on cells in proliferative tissue such as stamen primordia.
As an example, transgenic plants were obtained using Bgpl -ICKI chimeric gene construct.
Eighteen ( 18) such transgenic Arabidopsis plants were transferred to soil and grew to maturity.
All showed normal 2o development of flower and anthers, unlike transgenic plants with AP3-ICKI
construct most of which showed petal alteration and male sterility. The Bgpl-ICKI plants all set seeds without artificial pollination. As Bgpl promoter has been shown to be able to direct a high level of GUS
(beta-glucuronidase) gene expression in the pollen and tapetum of transgenic Arabidopsis plants (Xu et al., 1993), the observation that no significant male sterility phenotype developed in transgenic Bgpl-ICKl plants indicates that a differentiated cell such as pollen can tolerate a moderate level of ICK1 with no detrimental effect on its function.
Transgenic Brassica: In accordance with alternative embodiments of the invention, CDK
inhibitors may be used to modify a wide variety of plant species. The division and growth inhibiting activity of CDK inhibitors in Brassica is exemplified by the following results. The ICK1 cDNA coding region was fused in sense or anti-sense orientation to the cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (a constitutive promoter). These constructs were tested in Brassica napus transformations. From two independent experiments, over 60 transformants were regenerated from the anti-sense construct while none was obtained from the sense construct, indicating that constitutive expression of the ICK1 CDK inhibitor terminated plant growth at a very early stage.
As another example, transgenic Brassica napus plants were obtained with AP3-ICKl construct. Some of the plants showed much reduced size of petals and significant reduction in seed setting, with one plant showing almost complete male sterility. These phynotype changes resemble, although to lesser extent, what was observed in the transgenic Arabidopsis plants.
Transgenic Brassica carinata plants were also obtained and showed similar changes of altered petals and fertility, as in transgenic Brassica napus plants. These results show clearly that ICKI
can functioning in a heterologous Brassica plant in a similar way as it does in a transgenic Arabidopsis plants and can be used to modify the growth and development of specific tissues or organs.
Interaction of ICKI with other proteins: CDK inhibitors may be used in various aspects of the invention to interact with a variety of regulatory components, such as other cell cycle proteins. For example, in some embodiments, it may be desirable to target a known regulatory moity with a CDK inhibitor. Accordingly, in one aspect of the invention, an assay is provided to determine if a CDK inhibitor interacts with a known protein. Such interactions may be analyzed by a variety of assays for protein-protein interactions including the yeast two-hybrid assay (e.g.
Phizicky and Fields, 1995; Malmqvist and Karlsson, 1997). For example, the full-length cDNA
of the gene to be analyzed may be cloned in a GAL4-binding domain vector (Kohalmi et al., 1997) using PCR and gene specific primers with flanking restriction sites.
Such constructs may be used to transform the yeast carrying the CDK inhibitor of interest, such as ICKl in a GAL4-activation domain vector. Using this approach, for example, the interactions of ICK1 with a number of cell cycle-related genes from A. thaliana were examined in accordance with the invention (Table 2). In these examples, the yeast two-hybrid assay results indicate that in particular embodiments of the invention, ICK1 protein may interact with Cdc2a but not with - 2~ -Cdc2b. Similarly, ICK1 may interact with D-class cyclins, CycDl, CycD2 and CycD3, while not interacting with A/B-class mitotic cyclins, CycA2, CycB 1 and CycB2 (Table 2).
The yeast two-hybrid assay results also indicate that ICK1 may not interact in some embodiments with PCNA, also a cell cycle protein, and ATMAP2, a kinase sharing some similarity with Cdc2 kinase.
Results such as these, indicating that ICKl interacts with the G1 cyclins and Cdc2a but not the mitotic cyclins and Cdc2b, indicate that a CDK inhibitor, such as ICKl, may in some embodiments be used in the regulation of cell cycle initiation during plant growth and differentiation.

The CDK inhibitors identified in screens using Cdc2a are designated herein as ICKs (for Interactors of Cdc2 Kmase) and those identified in screens using cyclins are designated ICNs (for Interactors of Cyclin). Some CDK inhibitors may be isolated independently finm both types of screens. The sequences of ICK2 (SEQ ID NO: ~, ICN4 (SEQ ID NO: 'n, ICN6 (SEQ ID NO: 8), and ICN7 (SEQ ID NO: 9) are shown in Figs 2 through 6. These genes share at least two functional properties with ICKl:
First, all of these genes encode proteins able to interact with either Cdc2a or a D-class cyclin or both. Such interactions may enable them to regulate the activity of plant CDKs in alternative embodiments of the invention.
Second, these ICK/ICN proteins all share some sequence similarity in the region of ICKl that is timctionally important in some embodiments for its interaction with Cdc2a and cyclin 83 (discussed above in the section on "domains for ICKl interactions with Cdc2a and cyclin b3"). These homologous genes or proteins may be used in some embodiments, in a manner similar to ICKl, to modulate plant growth and development. One or more such genes or proteins may be used in some embodiments alone or in combination to provide temporal and spatial regulation of cell cycle initiation and progressing during plant development in accordance with this invention.
