Nuclei isolated from excised soybean [Glycine max] plumules that were treated with 2,4-D were active in transcription of 4 auxin-regulated genes or DNA sequences, which have been described previously (Hagen, Kleinschmidt and Guilfoyle, 1984). The rates of transcription of the auxin-responsive sequences were 10- to 100-fold greater with nuclei isolated from auxin-treated plumules than with those from untreated plumules. The transcriptional response was also observed with hypocotyls of intact soybean seedlings and hypocotyl sections, as well as with green bean [Phaseolus vulgaris] and mung bean [Vigna radiata] plumules that were treated with 2,4-D. Other auxins, including 2,4,5-T, .alpha.-naphthaleneacetic acid, and IAA also induced the transcriptional response. Increased transcription rates were observed within 5 min after application of auxins to excised plumules, and half-maximal to maximal transcription rates were achieved by 15 min after application of auxins. As little as 10-7 to 10-8 M 2,4-D induced a transcriptional response, but maximal transcription rates were achieved at 10-3 M 2,4-D. Brief treatment with the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide did not inhibit the induction of transcription by auxins. Auxin-regulated gene expression is under rapid transcriptional control.
