Phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) plays a critical role not only in photosynthetic carbon metabolism but also in glycolysis and gluconeogenesis. Although a large number of PGKs have been cloned and purified from a variety of plant sources, their physiological functions in response to abiotic stresses still remain elusive. Here we identified and characterized a member of PGKs gene family,AtPGK2, fromArabidopsis thaliana. Sequence analysis showed that AtPGK2 had high sequence similarity to PGKs proteins from other species. By using quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and histochemical β-glucuronidase assays, we demonstrated thatAtPGK2was mainly expressed in germinating seeds and flowers, and it could be induced significantly by salt stress. Through morphological and physiological analyses, we found that over-expression ofAtPGK2conferred salt tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis plants. Furthermore,AtPGK2-overexpressing plants showed enhanced expression of stress-responsive marker genes, includingRD29A,RD29B,KIN1andKIN2. Collectively, our results suggested that over-expression ofAtPGK2in Arabidopsis decreased plant sensitivity to salt stress, and AtPGK2 may play a positive role in salt stress tolerance. To our knowledge, this is the first study on the physiological functions of PGK in response to salt stress in higher plants.
