| Abstract | Heme oxygenase (HO; EC 1.14.99.3) is an important enzyme that yields biliverdin IXα (BV), carbon monoxide and iron. At least two kinds of HO subfamilies exist in plants. Our previous report revealed that rice (Oryza sativa L.) HO1 (SE5, also named as OsHO1), a major subfamily of HO, is an oxidative stress–response protein, especially upon paraquat exposure. However, whether there exists rice HO2, another subfamily of HO, is still unknown. In the present study, a rice HO2 gene (named as OsHO2) was cloned and characterized. Its genomic sequence consists of four exons and three introns, and encodes a 36.5 kDa protein precursor with a 4.9 kDa N-terminal transit leader peptide. Further results showed that OsHO2 has a conserved HO signature sequence and shares a high amino acid sequence similarity with other identified plant HO2s. The recombinant mature OsHO2 (mOsHO2) protein expressed in Escherichia coli did not exhibit HO activity, which was in contrast with that of mOsHO1. The results of subcellular localization of OsHO2 demonstrated that it was most likely localized in the chloroplasts. Real-time RT-PCR experiment revealed that although OsHO2 mRNA is a much less abundant than that of OsHO1, both of them were expressed in all tested tissues. Importantly, OsHO2 transcripts could be differentially induced by hemin (a substrate of HO), paraquat (in particular), and NaCl treatments. Together, the results suggested that OsHO2 might act downstream in the signal transduction pathways following abiotic stresses in rice. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
