Phospholipase C (PLC) is an enzyme that plays crucial roles in various signal transduction pathways in mammalian cells. However, the role of PLC in plant development is poorly understood. Here we report involvement of PLC2 in auxin‐mediated reproductive development in Arabidopsis. Disruption of PLC2 led to sterility, indicating a significant role for PLC2 in reproductive development. Development of both male and female gametophytes was severely perturbed in plc2 mutants. Moreover, elevated auxin levels were observed in plc2 floral tissues, suggesting that the infertility of plc2 plants may be associated with increased auxin concentrations in the reproductive organs. We show that expression levels of the auxin reporters DR5:GUS and DR5:GFP were elevated in plc2 anthers and ovules. In addition, we found that expression of the auxin biosynthetic YUCCA genes was increased in plc2 plants. We conclude that PLC2 is involved in auxin biosynthesis and signaling, thus modulating development of both male and female gametophytes in Arabidopsis. 相似文献

Auxin plays a pivotal role in many facets of plant development. It acts by inducing the interaction between auxin‐responsive [auxin (AUX)/indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA)] proteins and the ubiquitin protein ligase SCFTIR to promote the degradation of the AUX/IAA proteins. Other cofactors and chaperones that participate in auxin signaling remain to be identified. Here, we characterized rice (Oryza sativa) plants with mutations in a cyclophilin gene (OsCYP2). cyp2 mutants showed defects in auxin responses and exhibited a variety of auxin‐related growth defects in the root. In cyp2 mutants, lateral root initiation was blocked after nuclear migration but before the first anticlinal division of the pericycle cell. Yeast two‐hybrid and in vitro pull‐down results revealed an association between OsCYP2 and the co‐chaperone Suppressor of G2 allele of skp1 (OsSGT1). Luciferase complementation imaging assays further supported this interaction. Similar to previous findings in an Arabidopsis thaliana SGT1 mutant (atsgt1b), degradation of AUX/IAA proteins was retarded in cyp2 mutants treated with exogenous 1‐naphthylacetic acid. Our results suggest that OsCYP2 participates in auxin signal transduction by interacting with OsSGT1. 相似文献

Although salt stress mainly disturbs plant root growth by affecting the biosynthesis and signaling of phytohormones, such as gibberellin (GA) and auxin, the exact mechanisms of the crosstalk between these two hormones remain to be clarified. Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) is a biologically active auxin molecule. In this study, we investigated the role of Arabidopsis GA20-oxidase 2 (GA20ox2), a final rate-limiting enzyme of active GA biosynthesis, in IAA-directed root growth under NaCl stress. Under the NaCl treatment, seedlings of a loss-of-function ga20ox2-1 mutant exhibited primary root and root hair elongation, altered GA4 accumulation, and decreased root Na+ contents compared with the wild-type, transgenic GA20ox2-complementing, and GA20ox2-overexpression plant lines. Concurrently, ga20ox2-1 alleviated the tissue-specific inhibition of NaCl on IAA generation by YUCCAs, IAA transport by PIN1 and PIN2, and IAA accumulation in roots, thereby explaining how NaCl increased GA20ox2 expression in shoots but disrupted primary root and root hair growth in wild-type seedlings. In addition, a loss-of-function pin2 mutant impeded GA20ox2 expression, indicating that GA20ox2 function requires PIN2 activity. Thus, the activation of GA20ox2 retards IAA-directed primary root and root hair growth in response to NaCl stress. 相似文献

2,4‐Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4‐D), a functional analogue of auxin, is used as an exogenous source of auxin as it evokes physiological responses like the endogenous auxin, indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA). Previous molecular analyses of the auxin response pathway revealed that IAA and 2,4‐D share a common mode of action to elicit downstream physiological responses. However, recent findings with 2,4‐D‐specific mutants suggested that 2,4‐D and IAA might also use distinct pathways to modulate root growth in Arabidopsis. Using genetic and cellular approaches, we demonstrate that the distinct effects of 2,4‐D and IAA on actin filament organization partly dictate the differential responses of roots to these two auxin analogues. 2,4‐D but not IAA altered the actin structure in long‐term and short‐term assays. Analysis of the 2,4‐D‐specific mutant aar1‐1 revealed that small acidic protein 1 (SMAP1) functions positively to facilitate the 2,4‐D‐induced depolymerization of actin. The ubiquitin proteasome mutants tir1‐1 and axr1‐12, which show enhanced resistance to 2,4‐D compared with IAA for inhibition of root growth, were also found to have less disrupted actin filament networks after 2,4‐D exposure. Consistently, a chemical inhibitor of the ubiquitin proteasome pathway mitigated the disrupting effects of 2,4‐D on the organization of actin filaments. Roots of the double mutant aar1‐1 tir1‐1 also showed enhanced resistance to 2,4‐D‐induced inhibition of root growth and actin degradation compared with their respective parental lines. Collectively, these results suggest that the effects of 2,4‐D on actin filament organization and root growth are mediated through synergistic interactions between SMAP1 and SCFTIR1 ubiquitin proteasome components. 相似文献

Auxin is a fundamental plant hormone and its localization within organs plays pivotal roles in plant growth and development. Analysis of many Arabidopsis mutants that were defective in auxin biosynthesis revealed that the indole‐3‐pyruvic acid (IPA) pathway, catalyzed by the TRYPTOPHAN AMINOTRANSFERASE OF ARABIDOPSIS (TAA) and YUCCA (YUC) families, is the major biosynthetic pathway of indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA). In contrast, little information is known about the molecular mechanisms of auxin biosynthesis in rice. In this study, we identified a auxin‐related rice mutant, fish bone (fib). FIB encodes an orthologue of TAA genes and loss of FIB function resulted in pleiotropic abnormal phenotypes, such as small leaves with large lamina joint angles, abnormal vascular development, small panicles, abnormal organ identity and defects in root development, together with a reduction in internal IAA levels. Moreover, we found that auxin sensitivity and polar transport activity were altered in the fib mutant. From these results, we suggest that FIB plays a pivotal role in IAA biosynthesis in rice and that auxin biosynthesis, transport and sensitivity are closely interrelated. 相似文献

SHY2 as a node in the regulation of root meristem development by auxin,brassinosteroids, and cytokinin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

In multicellular organisms, the balance between cell division and differentiation determines organ size, and represents a central unknown in developmental biology. In Arabidopsis roots, this balance is mediated between cytokinin and auxin through a regulatory circuit converging on the IAA3/SHORT HYPOCOTYL 2 (SHY2) gene. Here, we show that crosstalk between brassinosteroids (BRs) and auxin occurs in the vascular transition zone to promote root meristem development. We found that BR increases root meristem size by up‐regulating expression of the PINFORMED 7 (PIN7) gene and down‐regulating expression of the SHY2 gene. In addition, BES1 could directly bind to the promoter regions of both PIN7 and SHY2, indicating that PIN7 and SHY2 mediate the BR‐induced growth of the root meristem by serving as direct targets of BES1. Moreover, the PIN7 overexpression and loss‐of‐function SHY2 mutant were sensitive to the effects of BR and could partially suppress the short‐root phenotypes associated with deficient BR signaling. Interestingly, BRs could inhibit the accumulation of SHY2 protein in response to cytokinin. Taken together, these findings suggest that a complex equilibrium model exists in which regulatory interactions among BRs, auxin, and cytokinin regulate optimal root growth. 相似文献

The changes in external K+ concentration affect plant root growth. However, the molecular mechanism for perceiving a K+ signal to modulate root growth remains unknown. It is hypothesized that the K+ channel AKT1 is involved in low K+ sensing in the Arabidopsis root and subsequent regulation of root growth. Along with the decline of external K+ concentration, the primary root growth of wild‐type plants was gradually inhibited. However, the primary root of the akt1 mutant could still grow under low K+ (LK) conditions. Application of NAA inhibited akt1 root growth, but promoted wild‐type root growth under LK conditions. By using the ProDR5:GFP and ProPIN1:PIN1‐GFP lines, we found that LK treatment reduced auxin accumulation in wild‐type root tips by degrading PIN1 proteins, which did not occur in the akt1 mutant. The LK‐induced PIN1 degradation may be due to the inhibition of vesicle trafficking of PIN1 proteins. In conclusion, our findings indicate that AKT1 is required for an Arabidopsis response to changes in external K+, and subsequent regulation of K+‐dependent root growth by modulating PIN1 degradation and auxin redistribution in the root. 相似文献

Phototropism is the process by which plants grow towards light in order to maximize the capture of light for photosynthesis, which is particularly important for germinating seedlings. In Arabidopsis, hypocotyl phototropism is predominantly triggered by blue light (BL), which has a profound effect on the establishment of asymmetric auxin distribution, essential for hypocotyl phototropism. Two auxin efflux transporters ATP‐binding cassette B19 (ABCB19) and PIN‐formed 3 (PIN3) are known to mediate the effect of BL on auxin distribution in the hypocotyl, but the details for how BL triggers PIN3 lateralization remain poorly understood. Here, we report a critical role for clathrin in BL‐triggered, PIN3‐mediated asymmetric auxin distribution in hypocotyl phototropism. We show that unilateral BL induces relocalization of clathrin in the hypocotyl. Loss of clathrin light chain 2 (CLC2) and CLC3 affects endocytosis and lateral distribution of PIN3 thereby impairing BL‐triggered establishment of asymmetric auxin distribution and consequently, phototropic bending. Conversely, auxin efflux inhibitors N‐1‐naphthylphthalamic acid and 2,3,5‐triiodobenzoic acid affect BL‐induced relocalization of clathrin, endocytosis and lateralization of PIN3 as well as asymmetric distribution of auxin. These results together demonstrate an important interplay between auxin and clathrin function that dynamically regulates BL‐triggered hypocotyl phototropism in Arabidopsis. 相似文献

Auxin is essential for plant growth and development, this makes it difficult to study the biological function of auxin using auxin‐deficient mutants. Chemical genetics have the potential to overcome this difficulty by temporally reducing the auxin function using inhibitors. Recently, the indole‐3‐pyruvate (IPyA) pathway was suggested to be a major biosynthesis pathway in Arabidopsis thaliana L. for indole‐3‐acetic acid (IAA), the most common member of the auxin family. In this pathway, YUCCA, a flavin‐containing monooxygenase (YUC), catalyzes the last step of conversion from IPyA to IAA. In this study, we screened effective inhibitors, 4‐biphenylboronic acid (BBo) and 4‐phenoxyphenylboronic acid (PPBo), which target YUC. These compounds inhibited the activity of recombinant YUC in vitro, reduced endogenous IAA content, and inhibited primary root elongation and lateral root formation in wild‐type Arabidopsis seedlings. Co‐treatment with IAA reduced the inhibitory effects. Kinetic studies of BBo and PPBo showed that they are competitive inhibitors of the substrate IPyA. Inhibition constants (Ki) of BBo and PPBo were 67 and 56 nm , respectively. In addition, PPBo did not interfere with the auxin response of auxin‐marker genes when it was co‐treated with IAA, suggesting that PPBo is not an inhibitor of auxin sensing or signaling. We propose that these compounds are a class of auxin biosynthesis inhibitors that target YUC. These small molecules are powerful tools for the chemical genetic analysis of auxin function. 相似文献

In Arabidopsis, phosphate starvation (-Pi)-induced responses of primary root and lateral root growth are documented to be correlated with ambient iron (Fe) status. However, whether and how Fe participates in -Pi-induced root hair growth (RHG) remains unclear. Here, responses of RHG to different Fe concentrations under Pi sufficiency/deficiency were verified. Generally, distinct dosage effects of Fe on RHG appeared at both Pi levels, due to the generation of reactive oxygen species. Following analyses using auxin mutants and the phr1 mutant revealed that auxin and the central regulator PHR1 are required for Fe-triggered RHG under −Pi. A further proteomic study indicated that processes of vesicle trafficking and auxin synthesis and transport were affected by Fe under −Pi, which were subsequently validated by using a vesicle trafficking inhibitor, brefeldin A, and an auxin reporter, R2D2. Moreover, vesicle trafficking-mediated recycling of PIN2, an auxin efflux transporter, was notably affected by Fe under -Pi. Correspondingly, root hairs of pin2 mutant displayed attenuated responses to Fe under -Pi. Together, we propose that Fe affects auxin signalling probably by modulating vesicle trafficking, chiefly the PIN2 recycling, which might work jointly with PHR1 on modulating -Pi-induced RHG. 相似文献

Deposition of ammonium (NH4+) from the atmosphere is a substantial environmental problem. While toxicity resulting from root exposure to NH4+ is well studied, little is known about how shoot‐supplied ammonium (SSA) affects root growth. In this study, we show that SSA significantly affects lateral root (LR) development. We show that SSA inhibits lateral root primordium (LRP) emergence, but not LRP initiation, resulting in significantly impaired LR number. We show that the inhibition is independent of abscisic acid (ABA) signalling and sucrose uptake in shoots but relates to the auxin response in roots. Expression analyses of an auxin‐responsive reporter, DR5:GUS, and direct assays of auxin transport demonstrated that SSA inhibits root acropetal (rootward) auxin transport while not affecting basipetal (shootward) transport or auxin sensitivity of root cells. Mutant analyses indicated that the auxin influx carrier AUX1, but not the auxin efflux carriers PIN‐FORMED (PIN)1 or PIN2, is required for this inhibition of LRP emergence and the observed auxin response. We found that AUX1 expression was modulated by SSA in vascular tissues rather than LR cap cells in roots. Taken together, our results suggest that SSA inhibits LRP emergence in Arabidopsis by interfering with AUX1‐dependent auxin transport from shoot to root. 相似文献

Homogeneous low phosphorus availability was reported to regulate root architecture in Arabidopsis via auxin, but the roles of auxin in root architecture plasticity to heterogeneous P availability remain unclear. In this study, we employed auxin biosynthesis-, transport- and signalling-related mutants. Firstly, we found that in contrast to low P (LP) content in the whole medium, primary root (PR) growth of Arabidopsis was partially rescued in the medium divided into two parts: upper with LP and lower with high P (HP) content or in the reverse arrangement. The down part LP was more effective to arrest PR growth as well as to decrease density of lateral roots (DLR) than the upper LP, and effects were dependent on polar auxin transport. Secondly, we verified that auxin receptor TIR1 was involved in the responses of PR growth and lateral root (LR) development to P supply and loss of function of TIR1 inhibited LR development. Thirdly, effects of heterogeneous P on LRD in the upper part of PR was dependent on PIN2 and PIN4, and in the down part on PIN3 and PIN4, whereas density of total LRs was dependent on auxin transporters PIN2 and PIN7. Finally, heterogeneous P availability altered the accumulation of auxin in PR tip and the expression of auxin biosynthesisrelated genes TAA1, YUC1, YUC2, and YUC4. Taken together, we provided evidences for the involvement of auxin in root architecture plasticity in response to heterogeneous phosphorus availability in Arabidopsis. 相似文献

The unfolded protein response (UPR) is a signaling network triggered by overload of protein‐folding demand in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), a condition termed ER stress. The UPR is critical for growth and development; nonetheless, connections between the UPR and other cellular regulatory processes remain largely unknown. Here, we identify a link between the UPR and the phytohormone auxin, a master regulator of plant physiology. We show that ER stress triggers down‐regulation of auxin receptors and transporters in Arabidopsis thaliana. We also demonstrate that an Arabidopsis mutant of a conserved ER stress sensor IRE1 exhibits defects in the auxin response and levels. These data not only support that the plant IRE1 is required for auxin homeostasis, they also reveal a species‐specific feature of IRE1 in multicellular eukaryotes. Furthermore, by establishing that UPR activation is reduced in mutants of ER‐localized auxin transporters, including PIN5, we define a long‐neglected biological significance of ER‐based auxin regulation. We further examine the functional relationship of IRE1 and PIN5 by showing that an ire1 pin5 triple mutant enhances defects of UPR activation and auxin homeostasis in ire1 or pin5. Our results imply that the plant UPR has evolved a hormone‐dependent strategy for coordinating ER function with physiological processes. 相似文献

The role of auxin in plant development is well known; however, its possible function in root response to abiotic stress is poorly understood. In this study, we demonstrate a novel role of auxin transport in plant tolerance to oxidative stress caused by arsenite. Plant response to arsenite [As(III)] was evaluated by measuring root growth and markers for stress on seedlings treated with control or As(III)‐containing medium. Auxin transporter mutants aux1, pin1 and pin2 were significantly more sensitive to As(III) than the wild type (WT). Auxin transport inhibitors significantly reduced plant tolerance to As(III) in the WT, while exogenous supply of indole‐3‐acetic acid improved As(III) tolerance of aux1 and not that of WT. Uptake assays using H3‐IAA showed As(III) affected auxin transport in WT roots. As(III) increased the levels of H2O2 in WT but not in aux1, suggesting a positive role for auxin transport through AUX1 on plant tolerance to As(III) stress via reactive oxygen species (ROS)‐mediated signalling. Compared to the WT, the mutant aux1 was significantly more sensitive to high‐temperature stress and salinity, also suggesting auxin transport influences a common element shared by plant tolerance to arsenite, salinity and high‐temperature stress. 相似文献
