Tag1 is an autonomous transposable element of Arabidopsis thaliana. Tag1 expression was examined in two ecotypes of Arabidopsis (Columbia and No-0) that were transformed with CaMV 35S-Tag1-GUS DNA. These ecotypes contain no endogenous Tag1 elements. A major 2.3-kb and several minor transcripts were detected in all major organs of the plants. The major transcript encoded a putative transposase of 84.2 kD with two nuclear localization signal sequences and a region conserved among transposases of the Ac or hAT family of elements. The abundance of Tag1 transcripts varied among transgenic lines and did not correlate with somatic excision frequency or germinal reversion rates, suggesting that factors other than transcript levels control Tag1 excision activity. In untransformed plants of the Landsberg ecotype, which contain two endogenous Tag1 elements, no Tag1 transcripts were detected. Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of these Landsberg plants with a defective 1.4-kb Tag1 element resulted in the appearance of full-length Tag1 transcripts from the endogenous elements. Transformation with control DNA containing no Tag1 sequences did not activate endogenous Tag1 expression. These results indicate that Agrobacterium-mediated transformation with dTag1 can activate the expression of Tag1.
