Trehalose 6-P (T6P) is a sugar signal in plants that inhibits SNF1-related protein kinase, SnRK1, thereby altering gene expression and promoting growth processes. This provides a model for the regulation of growth by sugar. However, it is not known how this model operates under sink-limited conditions when tissue sugar content is uncoupled from growth. To test the physiological importance of this model, T6P, SnRK1 activities, sugars, gene expression, and growth were measured in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seedlings after transfer to cold or zero nitrogen compared with sugar feeding under optimal conditions. Maximum in vitro activities of SnRK1 changed little, but T6P accumulated up to 55-fold, correlating with tissue Suc content in all treatments. SnRK1-induced and -repressed marker gene expression strongly related to T6P above and below a threshold of 0.3 to 0.5 nmol T6P g−1 fresh weight close to the dissociation constant (4 µm) of the T6P/ SnRK1 complex. This occurred irrespective of the growth response to Suc. This implies that T6P is not a growth signal per se, but through SnRK1, T6P primes gene expression for growth in response to Suc accumulation under sink-limited conditions. To test this hypothesis, plants with genetically decreased T6P content and SnRK1 overexpression were transferred from cold to warm to analyze the role of T6P/SnRK1 in relief of growth restriction. Compared with the wild type, these plants were impaired in immediate growth recovery. It is concluded that the T6P/SnRK1 signaling pathway responds to Suc induced by sink restriction that enables growth recovery following relief of limitations such as low temperature.The nonreducing Glc disaccharide, trehalose [α-d-glucopyranosyl-(1→1)-α-d-glucopyranoside] is widespread in nature. In resurrection plants, fungi, bacteria, and nonvertebrate animals, it performs a role as a carbon source and stress protection compound (Elbein et al., 2003; Paul et al., 2008). In the majority of plants, however, amounts of trehalose are too low to perform this function. Instead, the pathway has developed into a specialized system that regulates and integrates metabolism with growth and development (Schluepmann et al., 2003; Lunn et al., 2006; Ramon and Rolland, 2007; Gómez et al., 2010). This system is indispensible throughout seed and vegetative development (Eastmond et al., 2002; van Dijken et al., 2004; Gómez et al., 2010), and evidence suggests that the critical function is performed by the precursor of trehalose, trehalose 6-P (T6P). There is one known trehalose biosynthesis pathway in plants from the intermediates Glc 6-P and UDP-Glc catalyzed by trehalose phosphate synthase (TPS), which synthesizes T6P. T6P is then converted to trehalose by trehalose phosphate phosphatase (TPP). The regulation of T6P content in plants by TPSs and TPPs is not well understood. TPS1 is thought to account for most TPS catalytic activity in plants (Vandesteene et al., 2010). All 10 TPPs are now known to be catalytically active (Vandesteene et al., 2012); however, their specific contribution to T6P homeostasis is not known. Evidence suggests that T6P is a sugar signal in plants. T6P responds strongly to Suc supply when Suc is fed to seedlings grown in culture and in response to an increase in Suc in illuminated leaves (Lunn et al., 2006). Biosynthetic pathways for cell wall (Gómez et al., 2006) and starch synthesis (Kolbe et al., 2005) are regulated by T6P, supporting the observation that T6P promotes carbon utilization and growth of seedlings at high sugar levels when its content is increased through expression of otsA, a TPS-encoding gene from Escherichia coli (Schluepmann et al., 2003; Paul et al., 2010). In contrast, expression of otsB, a corresponding TPP-encoding gene from E. coli, decreases T6P content and inhibits growth in the presence of high sugar (Schluepmann et al., 2003; Paul et al., 2010). Given the importance of T6P in the regulation of growth and end-product synthesis, targets for its interaction have been eagerly sought.Recently, it was found that T6P inhibits the protein kinase SnRK1 in growing tissues of plants (Zhang et al., 2009; Debast et al., 2011; Delatte et al., 2011; Martínez-Barajas et al., 2011) through an intermediary factor. SnRK1 (AKIN10/AKIN11) is a member of the SNF1-related AMPK group of protein kinases that perform central functions in the regulation of responses of cells to endogenous energy and carbon status (Hardie, 2007). Baena-González et al. (2007) established that over 1000 genes are regulated by SnRK1 involved in biosynthetic, growth, and stress responses. It was observed that, in addition to cell wall and starch synthesis, T6P could regulate amino acid metabolism, protein, and nucleotide synthesis (Zhang et al., 2009) and is most likely connected to hormone signaling (Zhang et al., 2009; Paul et al., 2010). A model is proposed where SnRK1 inhibits growth processes when sugar and energy supplies are scarce, thus enabling survival under starvation stress conditions. When sugar supply is plentiful, T6P accumulates and inhibits SnRK1 blocking expression of genes involved in the stress survival response and inducing genes involved in the feast response, including growth processes. Interestingly, plants with altered SnRK1 activity display similar phenotypes to plants with altered T6P in both growth and developmental processes such that plants with genetically decreased T6P content resemble those with overexpressed SnRK1 and vice versa (Schluepmann et al., 2003; Baena-González et al., 2007; Wingler et al., 2012).Sugars fluctuate widely in plants in response to changes in photosynthesis and in response to environmental variables. Sugar starvation conditions, such as those induced by deep shade, limit growth through lack of sugar availability; SnRK1 would be active under such conditions. High sugar availability, however, does not necessarily indicate good conditions for growth and high growth rates. For example, under low-temperature and limiting nutrient supply, growth is limited in spite of abundant sugar availability (Paul and Stitt, 1993; Usadel et al., 2008). This is termed sink-limited growth, when growth is limited by capacity of sinks, i.e. growing regions to use assimilate. It departs from the famine model of growth regulation by SnRK1. The interrelationship between T6P, SnRK1, and growth is not known under such conditions. Here, we vary growth conditions by temperature and nutrient supply to induce sink-limited growth and feed Suc and Glc at physiological levels (15 mm). We show a strong specific interrelationship between T6P and Suc and SnRK1-regulated gene expression under all conditions irrespective of growth rate. This implies that T6P is not a growth signal per se, but through SnRK1, T6P primes gene expression for growth. By priming, we mean being in a prepared state with an advanced capacity to activate growth following relief of a growth limitation, such as low temperature. To test that T6P/SnRK1 enable growth recovery following relief from sink limitation, plants with genetically decreased T6P content and SnRK1 overexpression were transferred from cold to warm. Compared with the wild type, these plants were impaired in immediate growth recovery. It is concluded that T6P responds to Suc induced by growth restriction. This enables growth recovery following relief of limitations downstream of T6P/SnRK1, such as low temperature. Our findings are included in a model for the regulation of growth by the T6P/SnRK1 signaling pathway. 相似文献

Here we announce the complete genome sequence of Croceibacter atlanticus HTCC2559T, which was isolated by high-throughput dilution-to-extinction culturing from the Bermuda Atlantic Time Series station in the Western Sargasso Sea. Strain HTCC2559T contained genes for carotenoid biosynthesis, flavonoid biosynthesis, and several macromolecule-degrading enzymes. The genome confirmed physiological observations of cultivated Croceibacter atlanticus strain HTCC2559T, which identified it as an obligate chemoheterotroph.The phylum Bacteroidetes comprises 6 to ∼30% of total bacterial communities in the ocean by fluorescence in situ hybridization (8-10). Most marine Bacteroidetes are in the family Flavobacteriaceae, most of which are aerobic respiratory heterotrophs that form a well-defined clade by 16S rRNA phylogenetic analyses (4). The members of this family are well known for degrading macromolecules, including chitin, DNA, cellulose, starch, and pectin (17), suggesting their environmental roles as detritus decomposers in the ocean (6). Marine Polaribacter and Dokdonia species in the Flavobacteriaceae have also shown to have photoheterotrophic metabolism mediated by proteorhodopsins (11, 12).Several strains of the family Flavobacteriaceae were isolated from the Sargasso Sea and Oregon coast, using high-throughput culturing approaches (7). Croceibacter atlanticus HTCC2559T was cultivated from seawater collected at a depth of 250 m from the Sargasso Sea and was identified as a new genus in the family Flavobacteriaceae based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities (6). Strain HTCC2559T met the minimal standards for genera of the family Flavobacteriaceae (3) on the basis of phenotypic characteristics (6).Here we report the complete genome sequence of Croceibacter atlanticus HTCC2559T. The genome sequencing was initiated by the J. Craig Venter Institute as a part of the Moore Foundation Microbial Genome Sequencing Project and completed in the current announcement. Gaps among contigs were closed by Genotech Co., Ltd. (Daejeon, Korea), using direct sequencing of combinatorial PCR products (16). The HTCC2559T genome was analyzed with a genome annotation system based on GenDB (14) at Oregon State University and with the NCBI Prokaryotic Genomes Automatic Annotation Pipeline (15, 16).The HTCC2559T genome is 2,952,962 bp long, with 33.9 mol% G+C content, and there was no evidence of plasmids. The number of protein-coding genes was 2,715; there were two copies of the 16S-23S-5S rRNA operon and 36 tRNA genes. The HTCC2559T genome contained genes for a complete tricarboxylic acid cycle, glycolysis, and a pentose phosphate pathway. The genome also contained sets of genes for metabolic enzymes involved in carotenoid biosynthesis and also a serine/glycine hydroxymethyltransferase, which is often associated with the assimilatory serine cycle (13). The potential for HTCC2559T to use bacterial type III polyketide synthase (PKS) needs to be confirmed because this organism had a naringenin-chalcone synthase (CHS) or chalcone synthase (EC 2.3.1.74), a key enzyme in flavonoid biosynthesis. CHS initiates the addition of three molecules of malonyl coenzyme A (malonyl-CoA) to a starter CoA ester (e.g., 4-coumaroyl-CoA) (1) and takes part in a few bacterial type III polyketide synthase systems (1, 2, 5, 18).The complete genome sequence confirmed that strain HTCC2559T is an obligate chemoheterotroph because no genes for phototrophy were found. As expected from physiological characteristics (6), the HTCC2559T genome contained a set of genes coding for enzymes required to degrade high-molecular-weight compounds, including peptidases, metallo-/serine proteases, pectinase, alginate lyases, and α-amylase. 相似文献

In young Arabidopsis seedlings, retrograde signaling from plastids regulates the expression of photosynthesis-associated nuclear genes in response to the developmental and functional state of the chloroplasts. The chloroplast-located PPR protein GUN1 is required for signalling following disruption of plastid protein synthesis early in seedling development before full photosynthetic competence has been achieved. Recently we showed that sucrose repression and the correct temporal expression of LHCB1, encoding a light-harvesting chlorophyll protein associated with photosystem II, are perturbed in gun1 mutant seedlings.1 Additionally, we demonstrated that in gun1 seedlings anthocyanin accumulation and the expression of the “early” anthocyanin-biosynthesis genes is perturbed. Early seedling development, predominantly at the stage of hypocotyl elongation and cotyledon expansion, is also affected in gun1 seedlings in response to sucrose, ABA and disruption of plastid protein synthesis by lincomycin. These findings indicate a central role for GUN1 in plastid, sucrose and ABA signalling in early seedling development.Key words: ABA, ABI4, anthocyanin, chloroplast, GUN1, retrograde signalling, sucroseArabidopsis seedlings develop in response to light and other environmental cues. In young seedlings, development is fuelled by mobilization of lipid reserves until chloroplast biogenesis is complete and the seedlings can make the transition to phototrophic growth. The majority of proteins with functions related to photosynthesis are encoded by the nuclear genome, and their expression is coordinated with the expression of genes in the chloroplast genome. In developing seedlings, retrograde signaling from chloroplasts to the nucleus regulates the expression of these nuclear genes and is dependent on the developmental and functional status of the chloroplast. Two classes of gun (genomes uncoupled) mutants defective in retrograde signalling have been identified in Arabidopsis: the first, which comprises gun2–gun5, involves mutations in genes encoding components of tetrapyrrole biosynthesis.2,3 The other comprises gun1, which has mutations in a nuclear gene encoding a plastid-located pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) protein with an SMR (small MutS-related) domain near the C-terminus.4,5 PPR proteins are known to have roles in RNA processing6 and the SMR domain of GUN1 has been shown to bind DNA,4 but the specific functions of these domains in GUN1 are not yet established. However, GUN1 has been shown to be involved in plastid gene expression-dependent,7 redox,4 ABA1,4 and sucrose signaling,1,4,8 as well as light quality and intensity sensing pathways.9–11 In addition, GUN1 has been shown to influence anthocyanin biosynthesis, hypocotyl extension and cotyledon expansion.1,11 相似文献

Peptide signaling regulates a variety of developmental processes and environmental responses in plants.1–6 For example, the peptide systemin induces the systemic defense response in tomato7 and defensins are small cysteine-rich proteins that are involved in the innate immune system of plants.8,9 The CLAVATA3 peptide regulates meristem size10 and the SCR peptide is the pollen self-incompatibility recognition factor in the Brassicaceae.11,12 LURE peptides produced by synergid cells attract pollen tubes to the embryo sac.9 RALFs are a recently discovered family of plant peptides that play a role in plant cell growth.Key words: peptide, growth factor, alkalinization 相似文献

Double fertilization, uniquely observed in plants, requires successful sperm cell delivery by the pollen tube to the female gametophyte, followed by migration, recognition and fusion of the two sperm cells with two female gametic cells. The female gametophyte not only regulates these steps but also controls the subsequent initiation of seed development. Previously, we reported that loss of LORELEI, which encodes a putative glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein, in the female reproductive tissues causes a delay in initiation of seed development. From these studies, however, it was unclear if embryos derived from fertilization of lre-5 gametophytes continued to lag behind wild-type during seed development. Additionally, it was not determined if the delay in initiation of seed development had any lingering effects during seed germination. Finally, it was not known if loss of LORELEI function affects seedling development given that LORELEI is expressed in eight-day-old seedlings. Here, we showed that despite a delay in initiation, lre-5/lre-5 embryos recover, becoming equivalent to the developing wild-type embryos beginning at 72 hours after pollination. Additionally, lre-5/lre-5 seed germination, and seedling and root development are indistinguishable from wild-type indicating that loss of LORELEI is tolerated, at least under standard growth conditions, in vegetative tissues.Key words: LORELEI, glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein, embryogenesis, DD45, seed germination, primary and lateral root growth, seedling developmentDouble fertilization is unique to flowering plants. Upon female gametophyte reception of a pollen tube, the egg and central cells of the female gametophyte fuse with the two released sperm cells to form zygote and endosperm, respectively and initiate seed development.1 The female gametophyte controls seed development by (1) repressing premature central cell or egg cell proliferation until double fertilization is completed,1–3 (2) supplying factors that mediate early stages of embryo and endosperm development1,4,5 and (3) regulating imprinting of genes required for seed development.1,6The molecular mechanisms underlying female gametophyte control of early seed development are poorly understood. Although much progress has been made in identifying genes and mechanisms by which the female gametophyte represses premature central cell or egg cell proliferation until double fertilization is completed and regulates imprinting of genes required for seed development,1,6 only a handful of female gametophyte-expressed genes that affect early embryo7,8 and endosperm9 development after fertilization have been characterized. This is particularly important given that a large number of female gametophyte-expressed genes likely regulate early seed development.5We recently reported on a mutant screen for plants with reduced fertility and identification of a mutant that contained a large number of undeveloped ovules and very few viable seeds.10 TAIL-PCR revealed that this mutant is a new allele of LORELEI(LRE) [At4g26466].10,11 Four lre alleles have been reported;11 so, this mutant was designated lre-5.10 The Arabidopsis LORELEI protein contains 165 amino acids and possesses sequence features indicative of a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor containing cell surface protein. GPI-anchors serve as an alternative to transmembrane domains for anchoring proteins in cell membranes and GPI-anchored proteins participate in many functions including cell-cell signaling.12 相似文献

In our recent paper in the Plant Journal, we reported that Arabidopsis thaliana lysophospholipase 2 (lysoPL2) binds acyl-CoA-binding protein 2 (ACBP2) to mediate cadmium [Cd(II)] tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis. ACBP2 contains ankyrin repeats that have been previously shown to mediate protein-protein interactions with an ethylene-responsive element binding protein (AtEBP) and a farnesylated protein 6 (AtFP6). Transgenic Arabidopsis ACBP2-overexpressors, lysoPL2-overexpressors and AtFP6-overexpressors all display enhanced Cd(II) tolerance, in comparison to wild type, suggesting that ACBP2 and its protein partners work together to mediate Cd(II) tolerance. Given that recombinant ACBP2 and AtFP6 can independently bind Cd(II) in vitro, they may be able to participate in Cd(II) translocation. The binding of recombinant ACBP2 to [14C]linoleoyl-CoA and [14C]linolenoyl-CoA implies its role in phospholipid repair. In conclusion, ACBP2 can mediate tolerance to Cd(II)-induced oxidative stress by interacting with two protein partners, AtFP6 and lysoPL2. Observations that ACBP2 also binds lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) in vitro and that recombinant lysoPL2 degrades lysoPC, further confirm an interactive role for ACBP2 and lysoPL2 in overcoming Cd(II)-induced stress.Key words: acyl-CoA-binding protein, cadmium, hydrogen peroxide, lysophospholipase, oxidative stressAcyl-CoA-binding proteins (ACBP1 to ACBP6) are encoded by a multigene family in Arabidopsis thaliana.1 These ACBP proteins are well studied in Arabidopsis in comparison to other organisms,1–4 and are located in various subcellular compartments.1 Plasma membranelocalized ACBP1 and ACBP2 contain ankyrin repeats that have been shown to function in protein-protein interactions.5,6 ACBP1 and ACBP2 which share 76.9% amino acid identity also confer tolerance in transgenic Arabidopsis to lead [Pb(II)] and Cd(II), respectively.1,5,7 Since recombinant ACBP1 and ACBP2 bind linolenoyl-CoA and linoleoyl-CoA in vitro, they may possibly be involved in phospholipid repair in response to heavy metal stress at the plasma membrane.5,7 In contrast, ACBP3 is an extracellularly-localized protein8 while ACBP4, ACBP5 and ACBP6 are localized to cytosol.9,10 ACBP1 and ACBP6 have recently been shown to be involved in freezing stress.9,11 ACBP4 and ACBP5 bind oleoyl-CoA ester and their mRNA expressions are lightregulated.12,13 Besides acyl-CoA esters, some ACBPs also bind phospholipids.9,11,13 To investigate the biological function of ACBP2, we have proceeded to establish its interactors at the ankyrin repeats, including AtFP6,5 AtEBP6 and now lysoPL2 in the Plant Journal paper. While the significance in the interaction of ACBP2 with AtEBP awaits further investigations, some parallels can be drawn between those of ACBP2 with AtFP6 and with lysoPL2. 相似文献

Shoot elongation is a vital process for plant development and productivity, in both ecological and economic contexts. Auxin and bioactive gibberellins (GAs), such as GA1, play critical roles in the control of elongation,1–3 along with environmental and endogenous factors, including other hormones such as the brassinosteroids.4,5 The effect of auxins, such as indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), is at least in part mediated by its effect on GA metabolism,6 since auxin upregulates biosynthesis genes such as GA 3-oxidase and GA 20-oxidase and downregulates GA catabolism genes such as GA 2-oxidases, leading to elevated levels of bioactive GA1.7 In our recent paper,1 we have provided evidence that this action of IAA is largely independent of DELLA proteins, the negative regulators of GA action,8,9 since the auxin effects are still present in the DELLA-deficient la cry-s genotype of pea. This was a crucial issue to resolve, since like auxin, the DELLAs also promote GA1 synthesis and inhibit its deactivation. DELLAs are deactivated by GA, and thereby mediate a feedback system by which bioactive GA regulates its own level.10 However, our recent results,1 in themselves, do not show the generality of the auxin-GA relationship across species and phylogenetic groups or across different tissue types and responses. Further, they do not touch on the ecological benefits of the auxin-GA interaction. These issues are discussed below as well as the need for the development of suitable experimental systems to allow this process to be examined.Key words: auxin, gibberellins, DELLA proteins, interactions, elongation 相似文献

Plant defensins are small, highly stable, cysteine-rich peptides that constitute a part of the innate immune system primarily directed against fungal pathogens. Biological activities reported for plant defensins include antifungal activity, antibacterial activity, proteinase inhibitory activity and insect amylase inhibitory activity. Plant defensins have been shown to inhibit infectious diseases of humans and to induce apoptosis in a human pathogen. Transgenic plants overexpressing defensins are strongly resistant to fungal pathogens. Based on recent studies, some plant defensins are not merely toxic to microbes but also have roles in regulating plant growth and development.Key words: defensin, antifungal, antimicrobial peptide, development, innate immunityDefensins are diverse members of a large family of cationic host defence peptides (HDP), widely distributed throughout the plant and animal kingdoms.1–3 Defensins and defensin-like peptides are functionally diverse, disrupting microbial membranes and acting as ligands for cellular recognition and signaling.4 In the early 1990s, the first members of the family of plant defensins were isolated from wheat and barley grains.5,6 Those proteins were originally called γ-thionins because their size (∼5 kDa, 45 to 54 amino acids) and cysteine content (typically 4, 6 or 8 cysteine residues) were found to be similar to the thionins.7 Subsequent “γ-thionins” homologous proteins were indentified and cDNAs were cloned from various monocot or dicot seeds.8 Terras and his colleagues9 isolated two antifungal peptides, Rs-AFP1 and Rs-AFP2, noticed that the plant peptides'' structural and functional properties resemble those of insect and mammalian defensins, and therefore termed the family of peptides “plant defensins” in 1995. Sequences of more than 80 different plant defensin genes from different plant species were analyzed.10 A query of the UniProt database (www.uniprot.org/) currently reveals publications of 371 plant defensins available for review. The Arabidopsis genome alone contains more than 300 defensin-like (DEFL) peptides, 78% of which have a cysteine-stabilized α-helix β-sheet (CSαβ) motif common to plant and invertebrate defensins.11 In addition, over 1,000 DEFL genes have been identified from plant EST projects.12Unlike the insect and mammalian defensins, which are mainly active against bacteria,2,3,10,13 plant defensins, with a few exceptions, do not have antibacterial activity.14 Most plant defensins are involved in defense against a broad range of fungi.2,3,10,15 They are not only active against phytopathogenic fungi (such as Fusarium culmorum and Botrytis cinerea), but also against baker''s yeast and human pathogenic fungi (such as Candida albicans).2 Plant defensins have also been shown to inhibit the growth of roots and root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana16 and alter growth of various tomato organs which can assume multiple functions related to defense and development.4 相似文献

VERNALIZATION INSENSITIVE 3 (VIN3) encodes a PHD domain chromatin remodelling protein that is induced in response to cold and is required for the establishment of the vernalization response in Arabidopsis thaliana.1 Vernalization is the acquisition of the competence to flower after exposure to prolonged low temperatures, which in Arabidopsis is associated with the epigenetic repression of the floral repressor FLOWERING LOCUS C (FLC).2,3 During vernalization VIN3 binds to the chromatin of the FLC locus,1 and interacts with conserved components of Polycomb-group Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2).4,5 This complex catalyses the tri-methylation of histone H3 lysine 27 (H3K27me3),4,6,7 a repressive chromatin mark that increases at the FLC locus as a result of vernalization.4,7–10 In our recent paper11 we found that VIN3 is also induced by hypoxic conditions, and as is the case with low temperatures, induction occurs in a quantitative manner. Our experiments indicated that VIN3 is required for the survival of Arabidopsis seedlings exposed to low oxygen conditions. We suggested that the function of VIN3 during low oxygen conditions is likely to involve the mediation of chromatin modifications at certain loci that help the survival of Arabidopsis in response to prolonged hypoxia. Here we discuss the implications of our observations and hypotheses in terms of epigenetic mechanisms controlling gene regulation in response to hypoxia.Key words: arabidopsis, VIN3, FLC, hypoxia, vernalization, chromatin remodelling, survival 相似文献
