RNDr. Helena Ryšlavá, CSc. Consultant: RNDr. Veronika Doubnerová, PhD. Drought stress is one of the most frequent form of plant stress, which occurs not only under condition of limited water availability, but also under reduced ability to accept water by roots, for example in salted or cold soils. In this thesis the changes in enzyme activities of: NADP-malic enzyme (EC 1.1.1.40; NADP-ME), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.31; PEPC) and pyruvate, phosphate dikinase (EC 2.7.9.1; PPDK) in tobacco plants (Nicotiana tabacum L., cv. W38) after drought were investigated. Enzyme activities in tobacco leaves were significantly increased during 11 days of stress, PEPC 2-fold, PPDK 3,3- fold and NADP-ME 4-fold compared to control plants. The regulation of NADP-ME and PEPC activities were studied on transcriptional level - by the real-time PCR method and on translational level - immunochemically. The expression of NADP-ME protein and transcription of mRNA for chloroplast NADP-ME isoform were increased, but mRNA for cytosolic isoform was not affected. The protein expression of PEPC was slightly increased, transcription of...
