The bZIP proteins, GBF1, HY5 and HYH, play important regulatory roles in Arabidopsis seedling development. Whereas GBF1 plays a dual regulatory role, HY5 and HYH act as positive regulators of photomorphogenesis. The molecular and functional relations of GBF1 with HY5 and HYH in photomorphogenesis have recently been demonstrated. However, the possible interaction of bZIP domain of each of these proteins remains to be investigated. In this study, our results suggest that bZIP domains of HY5 and HYH are able to interact with the bZIP domain of GBF1. Taken together with the earlier study,9 these results suggest that the N-terminal domain of GBF1 has an inhibitory effect on its interaction with HY5 and HYH. 相似文献

Low-fluence and long-wavelength UV-B light promotes photomorphogenic development in Arabidopsis. CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1 (COP1) is a positive regulator in this pathway while it is a negative regulator of the traditional photomorphogenesis triggered by far-red and visible light. We have recently reported the mechanism by which the switch of COP1 function is accomplished in distinct light contexts. In response to photomorphogenic UV-B, the photoactivated UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8) associates with the COP1- SUPRESSOR OF PHYA (SPA) core complexes, resulting in the physical and functional disassociation of COP1-SPA from the CULLIN4-DAMAGED DNA BINDING PROTEIN 1 (CUL4-DDB1) E3 scaffold. These UV-B dependent UVR8-COP1-SPA complexes promote the stability and activity of ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 5 (HY5), and eventually cause COP1 to switch from repressing to promoting photomorphogenesis. In addition, it is possible that CUL4-DDB1 might simultaneously recruit alternative DDB1 BINDING WD40 (DWD) proteins to repress this UV-B-specific signaling. Further investigation is required, however, to verify this hypothesis. Overall, the coordinated organization of various protein complexes facilitates an efficient and balanced UV-B signaling. 相似文献

COP1 (CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 1), a ubiquitin E3 ligase, is a central negative regulator of photomorphogenesis. However, how COP1 activity is regulated by post-translational modifications remains largely unknown. Here we show that SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) modification enhances COP1 activity. Loss-of-function siz1 mutant seedlings exhibit a weak constitutive photomorphogenic phenotype. SIZ1 physically interacts with COP1 and mediates the sumoylation of COP1. A K193R substitution in COP1 blocks its SUMO modification and reduces COP1 activity in vitro and in planta. Consistently, COP1 activity is reduced in siz1 and the level of HY5, a COP1 target protein, is increased in siz1. Sumoylated COP1 may exhibits higher transubiquitination activity than does non-sumoylated COP1, but SIZ1-mediated SUMO modification does not affect COP1 dimerization, COP1-HY5 interaction, and nuclear accumulation of COP1. Interestingly, prolonged light exposure reduces the sumoylation level of COP1, and COP1 mediates the ubiquitination and degradation of SIZ1. These regulatory mechanisms may maintain the homeostasis of COP1 activity, ensuing proper photomorphogenic development in changing light environment. Our genetic and biochemical studies identify a function for SIZ1 in photomorphogenesis and reveal a novel SUMO-regulated ubiquitin ligase, COP1, in plants. 相似文献

Light is both a source of energy and a critically important environmental signal for plant development. Through decades of research, 2 groups of photomorphogenic repressors have been identified. The first group is CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC/DE-ETIOLATED/FUSCA (COP/DET/FUS), which were first identified by genetic screening and then by purification of protein complexes. Another group is the Phytochrome-Interacting Factors (PIFs), which were identified by yeast 2-hybrid screens using phyB as bait. How so many factors work together to repress photomorphogenesis has long been an interesting question. Previously, we demonstrated that CULLIN4 (CUL4) works as a core factor connecting the COP1-SPA complexes, the COP9 signalosome (CSN), and the COP10-DDB1-DET1 (CDD) complex. Recently, we showed that DET1 represses photomorphogenesis through positively regulating the abundance of PIF proteins in the dark. Dr. Huq and his colleagues reported that PIFs may enhance the function of COP1-SPA complexes to promote the degradation of HY5, and thus they synergistically repress photomorphogenesis in the dark. Though much work still needs to be done, these recent breakthroughs shed light on the regulatory relationships among these multiple photomorphogenic repressors. 相似文献

Flowering is the primary trait affected by ambient temperature changes. Plant microRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs playing an important regulatory role in plant development. In this study, to elucidate the mechanism of flowering-time regulation by small RNAs, we identified six ambient temperature-responsive miRNAs (miR156, miR163, miR169, miR172, miR398 and miR399) in Arabidopsis via miRNA microarray and northern hybridization analyses. We also determined the expression profile of 120 unique miRNA loci in response to ambient temperature changes by miRNA northern hybridization analysis. The expression of the ambient temperature-responsive miRNAs and their target genes was largely anticorrelated at two different temperatures (16 and 23°C). Interestingly, a lesion in short vegetative phase (SVP), a key regulator within the thermosensory pathway, caused alteration in the expression of miR172 and a subset of its target genes, providing a link between a thermosensory pathway gene and miR172. The miR172-overexpressing plants showed a temperature-independent early flowering phenotype, suggesting that modulation of miR172 expression leads to temperature insensitivity. Taken together, our results suggest a genetic framework for flowering-time regulation by ambient temperature-responsive miRNAs under non-stress temperature conditions. 相似文献
