Cloned (Comment) Organism
gene IaaM, the gene is constitutively expressed in plant host Arabidopsis thaliana via Ti plasmid-encoded T-DNA insertion in tranfected cells, and no transcription factor further activates its promoter IGR1b, that contains cis-regulatory binding elements. Genetic organization, overview. Transcription factor ARR1 can regulate transcription of the IaaH or IaaM genes. Promoter IGR1 drives expression of IaaH and IaaM and contains only one Wbox and AuxRE sequence motif, and this is more closely localized upstream of the IaaM than that of the IaaH TATA box Agrobacterium tumefaciens

metabolism the enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of auxin Agrobacterium tumefaciens
physiological function Crown gall development requires the expression of agrobacterial genes in the plant host, e.g. Arabidopsis thaliana. These genes are transferred by the T-DNA of the plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens and include the oncogenes IaaH, IaaM and Ipt, which, according to the tumor-inducing principle, are essential for crown gall development. Virulent Agrobacterium tumefaciens strains integrate their T-DNA into the plant genome where the encoded agrobacterial oncogenes are expressed and cause crown gall disease. Essential for crown gall development are IaaH (indole-3-acetamide hydrolase), IaaM (tryptophan monooxygenase) and Ipt (isopentenyl transferase), which encode enzymes for the biosynthesis of auxin (IaaH, IaaM) and cytokinin (Ipt). The oncogenes are involved in auxin and cytokinin production. The intergenic regions (IGRs) between the coding sequences (CDS) of the three oncogenes function as promoters in plant cells, but gene IaaM is constitutively expressed and no transcription factor further activates its promoter. With increasing auxin levels triggered by ubiquitous expression of IaaH and IaaM, ARF5 is activated and interacts with WRKY40 to potentiate Ipt expression and balance cytokinin and auxin levels for further cell proliferation.
