Introduction
Zinc finger proteins are one of
transcriptional factors.
In plants zinc finger proteins are involved
in growth, development and responses to
environmental stresses.

Introduction
ABA as a phytohormone plays a critical role in response to various stress signals.
Numerous studies have shown that ABA is essential for the normal adaptive response to stress imposed by drought or high salinity. The endogenous ABA level increases under low-temperature conditions and application of exogenous ABA enhances cold tolerance of non-acclimatized plants.
Many of the biochemical and physiological changes under stress result from ABA-induced changes in gene expression patterns.

Introduction
The promoters of stress responsive genes have
typical cis-regulatory elements and are regulated
by various upstream transcriptional factors. These
upstream transcription factors fall in the category
of early genes and are induced within minutes of
stress.The expression of the stress responsive
genes leads to physiological responses.

Introduction
Proline has been reported to play roles in
protecting enzymes from denaturation, stabilizing
the machinery of protein synthesis, regulating the
cytosolic acidity, increasing water-binding
capacity, and acting as a reservoir of carbon and
nitrogen source.

Isolation and characterization of OsCOIN gene
To isolate the cold-inducible gene in rice,
the full-length OsCOIN cDNA was amplified
by RT-PCR, cloned into pGEM-T easy and
sequenced.

Subcellular localization
The OsCOIN cDNA was amplified with the
primers. The PCR products were digested with
XbaI and KpnI, and ligated with XbaI and KpnI
double-digested pGFP221 to created pGFP-
OsCOIN. The fusion construct and the GFP
control vector were transformed into the onion
epidermis cells by particle bombardment .

OsCOIN expression in various rice organs
The expression of the OsCOIN gene in
various organs of the wild-type rice plants
were analyzed by semi-quantitative RT-
PCR using tubulin as an internal control.

OsCOIN expression induction by ABA
The expression of OsCOIN was induced by exogenous ABA suggesting that
the expression of the OsCOIN is ABA-dependent in rice

Generation of OsCOIN transgenic rice
To explore its function, the OsCOIN gene driven
by an ubiquitin promoter together with a GUS
gene as a marker was transformed into rice plants
by the Agrobacterium transformation approach.

the effect of overexpression of OsCOIN gene on cold tolerance
To examine the effect of overexpression of
OsCOIN gene on cold tolerance, rice seedlings of
both wild type and OsCOIN transgenic rice were
exposed to chilling temperature for 60, 72, and 84
h, and then returned to the normal growth
conditions to allow their recovery.

the effect of overexpression of OsCOIN gene on drought tolerance
To analyze the effect of overexpression of OsCOIN
gene on tolerance to drought, rice seedlings of
wildtype and the OsCOIN transgenic rice plants
were submerged in the solutions containing 20%
of PEG6000 for 12h and 24 h, and then returned
to the normal growth conditions to allow their
recovery.

the effect of overexpression of OsCOIN gene on salt tolerance
To examine the effect of overexpression of
OsCOIN gene on salt tolerance, the seeds of
both wild type and OsCOIN transgenic rice
were submerged in medium with 250 mM
NaCl and germinated for 20 days.
