aERD2 and aSAR1 of Arabidopsis are functional homologs of yeast genes encoding proteins essential for endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-to-Golgi transport. The regulation of these secretory pathway genes in yeast, mammals, and plants is not known. High levels of expression of aERD2 and aSAR1 were observed in roots, flowers, and inflorescence stems, with the highest levels being detected in roots. The aSAR1 transcript levels were highest in young leaves and declined during leaf maturation. Low levels of aERD2 were detected in both young and fully mature leaves when compared with roots. In situ hybridization showed that trichomes accumulate more aERD2 transcript as the leaf expands, whereas aSAR1 is expressed equally in all leaf cell types. Treating plants with tunicamycin, a drug that blocks N-glycosylation in the ER, or with cold shock, known to block secretory protein transport, led to a marked accumulation of aERD2 and aSAR1 transcripts. The Arabidopsis ARF gene, which encodes a GTPase probably involved in Golgi vesicle traffic, was not affected by these treatments. This study is an essential first step toward understanding the regulation of genes that encode proteins involved in vesicular trafficking.
