We compared the expression of mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX) and other non-phosphorylating respiratory components (NPhPs) in wild type and AOX1a transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana following short-term transfer of plants to higher irradiance conditions to gain more insight into the mechanisms of AOX functioning under light. The AOX1a overexpressing line (XX-2) showed the highest amount of AOX1a transcripts and AOX1A synthesis during the entire experiment, and many NPhPs genes were down-regulated after 6-8 h under the higher light conditions. Antisense AS-12 plants displayed a compensatory effect, typically after 8 h of exposure to higher irradiance, by up-regulating their expression of the majority of genes encoding AOX and other respiratory components. In addition, AS-12 plants displayed 'overcompensation effects' prior to their transfer to high light conditions, i.e., they showed a higher expression level of certain genes. As a result, the ROS content in AS-12, as in XX-2, was consistently lower than in the wild type. All NPhPs genes share, in common with AOX1a, light- and stress-related cis-acting regulatory elements (CAREs) in their promoters. However, the expression of respiratory genes does not always depend on the level of AOX1a expression. This suggests the presence of multiple combinations of signaling pathways in gene induction. Based on our results, we outline possible directions for future research.
