physiological function | alternative splicing of MEK1 leads to variants MEK1-X1 and MEK1-X2 both localized in the cytoplasm. MEK1-X2 is induced by salt stress. Overexpression of MEK1-X2 leads to a higher increase rate of glycerol production compared to the control and MEK1-X1 overexpression under salt stress. Under salt stress, the expression of GPDH2/3/5/6 increases in MEK1-X2 overexpression strains compared to the control. Overexpression of MEK1-X1 increases the proline content and reduces the malondialdehyde content under salt stress, and MEK1-X1 is able to regulate oxidative stress. MEK1-X2 can interact with MAPKKK1/2/3/9/10/17 and MAPK1. MEK1-X1 interacts with neither upstream MAPKKK nor downstream MAPK. MEK1-X2 overexpressing transgenic lines increase the expression of MAPKKK1/3/10/17 and MAPK1, and MEK1-X2 RNAi lines decrease the expression of MAPKKK2/10/17 | Dunaliella salina |
