Molecular evaluation of telomerase activity in sunflower under various salt stress conditions
Maryam Parvini and Mehdi Teymouri
Islamic Azad University, Iran
Telomerase activity is highly regulated, abundant in
animal rapidly dividing cells and reproductive organs,
but undetectable in most other differentiated tissues. Little
is known about the activity of telomerase in plants, whose
development differs in fundamental ways from that of animals,
especially through stressed conditions. Telomerase synthesizes
the plant telomere repeat sequence TTTAGGG. To examine
the possible involvement of telomerase activity in plants
under stress, we used Molecular assay to screen telomerase
activity. Experimental samples were taken from the leaves of
Helianthus annus under various salt stress conditions, include
2, 5 and 8 ds.m at 6, 12 and 24 hours of growth. Using Real
time RT-PCR showed decreased expression of the gene
coding telomerase, TERT in all plants under salinity stresses.
Telomerasewithdecreasedlevelsfromsalinetreatedtissuesmight
sheds light a correlation between telomerase activity and salt
stresses as one of a probablemechanism, affected by this stress.
Speaker Biography
Maryam Parvini has completed her PhD at the age of 31 years from Islamic azad University,
science and research branch, Tehran, Iran. After 3 years research in Royan institute (for my
Ph.D thesis), whose ranking is the first for stem cells and Developmental biology researches
in Iran, She achieved a thorough understanding of every aspect of these areas, especially
neural patterning and achieving the different neural progenies from human embryonic
stem cells. Her most recent position as scientific staff in Islamic Azad University,Urmia, Iran,
has provided me with 1 year supervisory experience as leader of students. She is also
keen to express my deep interest to Plant science, especially for molecular aspects. It was
extreem and enough cause to bigen my cooperation with Prof. Dr Reza Darvishzadeh, who
is plant biotechnologist. Since this field obviously take a great leap forward, she need to
go on with learning and experiencing as to assist me in this feild more and more. She is a
reviewer of some Iranian journals.
