Arabidopsis metallothioneins 2a and 3 enhance resistance to cadmium when expressed in Vicia faba guard cells

Abstract The Arabidopsis metallothionein genes AtMT1 and AtMT2 confer Cd (II) resistance
to Cd (II)-sensitive yeast, but it has not been directly shown whether they or other
metallothioneins provide the same protection to plants. We tested whether AtMT2a and
AtMT3 can confer Cd (II) resistance to plant cells by introducing GFP-or RFP-fused forms into
guard cells of Vicia faba by biolistic bombardment. AtMT2a and AtMT3 protected guard cell
chloroplasts from degradation upon exposure to Cd (II), an effect that was confirmed using …
