To investigate sepal/petal/lip formation in Oncidium Gower Ramsey, three paleoAPETALA3 genes, O. Gower Ramsey MADS box gene5 (OMADS5; clade 1), OMADS3 (clade 2), and OMADS9 (clade 3), and one PISTILLATA gene, OMADS8, were characterized. The OMADS8 and OMADS3 mRNAs were expressed in all four floral organs as well as in vegetative leaves. The OMADS9 mRNA was only strongly detected in petals and lips. The mRNA for OMADS5 was only strongly detected in sepals and petals and was significantly down-regulated in lip-like petals and lip-like sepals of peloric mutant flowers. This result revealed a possible negative role for OMADS5 in regulating lip formation. Yeast two-hybrid analysis indicated that OMADS5 formed homodimers and heterodimers with OMADS3 and OMADS9. OMADS8 only formed heterodimers with OMADS3, whereas OMADS3 and OMADS9 formed homodimers and heterodimers with each other. We proposed that sepal/petal/lip formation needs the presence of OMADS3/8 and/or OMADS9. The determination of the final organ identity for the sepal/petal/lip likely depended on the presence or absence of OMADS5. The presence of OMADS5 caused short sepal/petal formation. When OMADS5 was absent, cells could proliferate, resulting in the possible formation of large lips and the conversion of the sepal/petal into lips in peloric mutants. Further analysis indicated that only ectopic expression of OMADS8 but not OMADS5/9 caused the conversion of the sepal into an expanded petal-like structure in transgenic Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants.The ABCDE model predicts the formation of any flower organ by the interaction of five classes of homeotic genes in plants (Yanofsky et al., 1990; Jack et al., 1992; Mandel et al., 1992; Goto and Meyerowitz, 1994; Jofuku et al., 1994; Pelaz et al., 2000, 2001; Theißen and Saedler, 2001; Pinyopich et al., 2003; Ditta et al., 2004; Jack, 2004). The A class genes control sepal formation. The A, B, and E class genes work together to regulate petal formation. The B, C, and E class genes control stamen formation. The C and E class genes work to regulate carpel formation, whereas the D class gene is involved in ovule development. MADS box genes seem to have a central role in flower development, because most ABCDE genes encode MADS box proteins (Coen and Meyerowitz, 1991; Weigel and Meyerowitz, 1994; Purugganan et al., 1995; Rounsley et al., 1995; Theißen and Saedler, 1995; Theißen et al., 2000; Theißen, 2001).The function of B group genes, such as APETALA3 (AP3) and PISTILLATA (PI), has been thought to have a major role in specifying petal and stamen development (Jack et al., 1992; Goto and Meyerowitz, 1994; Krizek and Meyerowitz, 1996; Kramer et al., 1998; Hernandez-Hernandez et al., 2007; Kanno et al., 2007; Whipple et al., 2007; Irish, 2009). In Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), mutation in AP3 or PI caused identical phenotypes of second whorl petal conversion into a sepal structure and third flower whorl stamen into a carpel structure (Bowman et al., 1989; Jack et al., 1992; Goto and Meyerowitz, 1994). Similar homeotic conversions for petal and stamen were observed in the mutants of the AP3 and PI orthologs from a number of core eudicots such as Antirrhinum majus, Petunia hybrida, Gerbera hybrida, Solanum lycopersicum, and Nicotiana benthamiana (Sommer et al., 1990; Tröbner et al., 1992; Angenent et al., 1993; van der Krol et al., 1993; Yu et al., 1999; Liu et al., 2004; Vandenbussche et al., 2004; de Martino et al., 2006), from basal eudicot species such as Papaver somniferum and Aquilegia vulgaris (Drea et al., 2007; Kramer et al., 2007), as well as from monocot species such as Zea mays and Oryza sativa (Ambrose et al., 2000; Nagasawa et al., 2003; Prasad and Vijayraghavan, 2003; Yadav et al., 2007; Yao et al., 2008). This indicated that the function of the B class genes AP3 and PI is highly conserved during evolution.It has been thought that B group genes may have arisen from an ancestral gene through multiple gene duplication events (Doyle, 1994; Theißen et al., 1996, 2000; Purugganan, 1997; Kramer et al., 1998; Kramer and Irish, 1999; Lamb and Irish, 2003; Kim et al., 2004; Stellari et al., 2004; Zahn et al., 2005; Hernandez-Hernandez et al., 2007). In the gymnosperms, there was a single putative B class lineage that duplicated to generate the paleoAP3 and PI lineages in angiosperms (Kramer et al., 1998; Theißen et al., 2000; Irish, 2009). The paleoAP3 lineage is composed of AP3 orthologs identified in lower eudicots, magnolid dicots, and monocots (Kramer et al., 1998). Genes in this lineage contain the conserved paleoAP3- and PI-derived motifs in the C-terminal end of the proteins, which have been thought to be characteristics of the B class ancestral gene (Kramer et al., 1998; Tzeng and Yang, 2001; Hsu and Yang, 2002). The PI lineage is composed of PI orthologs that contain a highly conserved PI motif identified in most plant species (Kramer et al., 1998). Subsequently, there was a second duplication at the base of the core eudicots that produced the euAP3 and TM6 lineages, which have been subject to substantial sequence changes in eudicots during evolution (Kramer et al., 1998; Kramer and Irish, 1999). The paleoAP3 motif in the C-terminal end of the proteins was retained in the TM6 lineage and replaced by a conserved euAP3 motif in the euAP3 lineage of most eudicot species (Kramer et al., 1998). In addition, many lineage-specific duplications for paleoAP3 lineage have occurred in plants such as orchids (Hsu and Yang, 2002; Tsai et al., 2004; Kim et al., 2007; Mondragón-Palomino and Theißen, 2008, 2009; Mondragón-Palomino et al., 2009), Ranunculaceae, and Ranunculales (Kramer et al., 2003; Di Stilio et al., 2005; Shan et al., 2006; Kramer, 2009).Unlike the A or C class MADS box proteins, which form homodimers that regulate flower development, the ability of B class proteins to form homodimers has only been reported in gymnosperms and in the paleoAP3 and PI lineages of some monocots. For example, LMADS1 of the lily Lilium longiflorum (Tzeng and Yang, 2001), OMADS3 of the orchid Oncidium Gower Ramsey (Hsu and Yang, 2002), and PeMADS4 of the orchid Phalaenopsis equestris (Tsai et al., 2004) in the paleoAP3 lineage, LRGLOA and LRGLOB of the lily Lilium regale (Winter et al., 2002), TGGLO of the tulip Tulipa gesneriana (Kanno et al., 2003), and PeMADS6 of the orchid P. equestris (Tsai et al., 2005) in the PI lineage, and GGM2 of the gymnosperm Gnetum gnemon (Winter et al., 1999) were able to form homodimers that regulate flower development. Proteins in the euAP3 lineage and in most paleoAP3 lineages were not able to form homodimers and had to interact with PI to form heterodimers in order to regulate petal and stamen development in various plant species (Schwarz-Sommer et al., 1992; Tröbner et al., 1992; Riechmann et al., 1996; Moon et al., 1999; Winter et al., 2002; Kanno et al., 2003; Vandenbussche et al., 2004; Yao et al., 2008). In addition to forming dimers, AP3 and PI were able to interact with other MADS box proteins, such as SEPALLATA1 (SEP1), SEP2, and SEP3, to regulate petal and stamen development (Pelaz et al., 2000; Honma and Goto, 2001; Theißen and Saedler, 2001; Castillejo et al., 2005).Orchids are among the most important plants in the flower market around the world, and research on MADS box genes has been reported for several species of orchids during the past few years (Lu et al., 1993, 2007; Yu and Goh, 2000; Hsu and Yang, 2002; Yu et al., 2002; Hsu et al., 2003; Tsai et al., 2004, 2008; Xu et al., 2006; Guo et al., 2007; Kim et al., 2007; Chang et al., 2009). Unlike the flowers in eudicots, the nearly identical shape of the sepals and petals as well as the production of a unique lip in orchid flowers make them a very special plant species for the study of flower development. Four clades (1–4) of genes in the paleoAP3 lineage have been identified in several orchids (Hsu and Yang, 2002; Tsai et al., 2004; Kim et al., 2007; Mondragón-Palomino and Theißen, 2008, 2009; Mondragón-Palomino et al., 2009). Several works have described the possible interactions among these four clades of paleoAP3 genes and one PI gene that are involved in regulating the differentiation and formation of the sepal/petal/lip of orchids (Tsai et al., 2004; Kim et al., 2007; Mondragón-Palomino and Theißen, 2008, 2009). However, the exact mechanism that involves the orchid B class genes remains unclear and needs to be clarified by more experimental investigations.O. Gower Ramsey is a popular orchid with important economic value in cut flower markets. Only a few studies have been reported on the role of MADS box genes in regulating flower formation in this plant species (Hsu and Yang, 2002; Hsu et al., 2003; Chang et al., 2009). An AP3-like MADS gene that regulates both floral formation and initiation in transgenic Arabidopsis has been reported (Hsu and Yang, 2002). In addition, four AP1/AGAMOUS-LIKE9 (AGL9)-like MADS box genes have been characterized that show novel expression patterns and cause different effects on floral transition and formation in Arabidopsis (Hsu et al., 2003; Chang et al., 2009). Compared with other orchids, the production of a large and well-expanded lip and five small identical sepals/petals makes O. Gower Ramsey a special case for the study of the diverse functions of B class MADS box genes during evolution. Therefore, the isolation of more B class MADS box genes and further study of their roles in the regulation of perianth (sepal/petal/lip) formation during O. Gower Ramsey flower development are necessary. In addition to the clade 2 paleoAP3 gene OMADS3, which was previously characterized in our laboratory (Hsu and Yang, 2002), three more B class MADS box genes, OMADS5, OMADS8, and OMADS9, were characterized from O. Gower Ramsey in this study. Based on the different expression patterns and the protein interactions among these four orchid B class genes, we propose that the presence of OMADS3/8 and/or OMADS9 is required for sepal/petal/lip formation. Further sepal and petal formation at least requires the additional presence of OMADS5, whereas large lip formation was seen when OMADS5 expression was absent. Our results provide a new finding and information pertaining to the roles for orchid B class MADS box genes in the regulation of sepal/petal/lip formation. 相似文献

The growing relevance of plants for the production of recombinant proteins makes understanding the secretory machinery, including the identification of glycosylation sites in secreted proteins, an important goal of plant proteomics. Barley (Hordeum vulgare) aleurone layers maintained in vitro respond to gibberellic acid by secreting an array of proteins and provide a unique system for the analysis of plant protein secretion. Perturbation of protein secretion in gibberellic acid-induced aleurone layers by two independent mechanisms, heat shock and tunicamycin treatment, demonstrated overlapping effects on both the intracellular and secreted proteomes. Proteins in a total of 22 and 178 two-dimensional gel spots changing in intensity in extracellular and intracellular fractions, respectively, were identified by mass spectrometry. Among these are proteins with key roles in protein processing and secretion, such as calreticulin, protein disulfide isomerase, proteasome subunits, and isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase. Sixteen heat shock proteins in 29 spots showed diverse responses to the treatments, with only a minority increasing in response to heat shock. The majority, all of which were small heat shock proteins, decreased in heat-shocked aleurone layers. Additionally, glycopeptide enrichment and N-glycosylation analysis identified 73 glycosylation sites in 65 aleurone layer proteins, with 53 of the glycoproteins found in extracellular fractions and 36 found in intracellular fractions. This represents major progress in characterization of the barley N-glycoproteome, since only four of these sites were previously described. Overall, these findings considerably advance knowledge of the plant protein secretion system in general and emphasize the versatility of the aleurone layer as a model system for studying plant protein secretion.Plant proteins that are secreted to the apoplast have important functions in signaling, defense, and cell regulation. The classical protein secretory pathway is less characterized in plants than in mammals or yeast but is of growing interest due to the potential of plant systems as hosts for the production of recombinant proteins (Erlendsson et al., 2010; De Wilde et al., 2013). Plant secretomics, therefore, is a rapidly expanding area applied to gain further insight into these processes (Agrawal et al., 2010; Alexandersson et al., 2013). Many secretory proteins contain putative N-glycosylation sites, and the identification and characterization of these sites is an important element in secretomics analysis. However, to date, only a few plant glycoproteomes have been described (Fitchette et al., 2007; Minic et al., 2007; Palmisano et al., 2010; Melo-Braga et al., 2012; Zhang et al., 2012; Thannhauser et al., 2013).The cereal aleurone layer is of major importance due to its central role in grain germination. Previous proteomic studies have been reported for aleurone layers dissected from mature (Finnie and Svensson, 2003) and germinating (Bønsager et al., 2007) barley (Hordeum vulgare) or developing (Tasleem-Tahir et al., 2011) and mature (Laubin et al., 2008; Jerkovic et al., 2010; Meziani et al., 2012) wheat (Triticum aestivum) grains. The in vitro culture of isolated aleurone layers was developed by Chrispeels and Varner (1967). Since then, this system has become an excellent tool for the study of germination signaling in response to phytohormones (Bush et al., 1986; Jones and Jacobsen, 1991; Bethke et al., 1997; Ishibashi et al., 2012). More recently, it has been adopted as a unique system for the analysis of plant secretory proteins (Hägglund et al., 2010; Finnie et al., 2011). The addition of GA3 to the isolated aleurone layers induces the synthesis and secretion of hydrolytic enzymes. In the in vitro system, these accumulate in the incubation buffer, facilitating their identification and characterization using proteomics techniques. Thus, numerous secreted proteins with roles in the hydrolysis of starch, cell wall polysaccharides, and proteins could be identified (Finnie et al., 2011). Furthermore, several of the proteins were also detected in intracellular extracts from the same aleurone layers, presumably prior to their release. Many of the proteins appeared in multiple forms on two-dimensional (2D) gels, and often with higher Mr than expected, suggesting the presence of posttranslational modifications (PTMs; Finnie et al., 2011). Bak-Jensen et al. (2007) and Finnie et al. (2011) observed a highly complex pattern of α-amylase-containing spots on 2D gels, which originated from only two α-AMYLASE2 (AMY2) and two AMY1 gene products from a total of 10 genes, probably reflecting multiple forms due to PTMs.In eukaryotic cells, proteins synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) must be correctly folded and assembled before continuing in the secretory pathway. Perturbations of redox state, calcium regulation, Glc deprivation, and viral infection can lead to ER stress, triggered by the accumulation of unfolded and misfolded proteins in the ER lumen. This provokes a triple response from the cell, consisting of an up-regulation of chaperones and vesicle trafficking, a down-regulation of genes encoding secretory proteins, and an up-regulation of proteins involved in endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation (ERAD). In plants, the molecular mechanisms underlying ER stress in plants have yet to be fully resolved (Martínez and Chrispeels, 2003; Nagashima et al., 2011; Moreno et al., 2012).Tunicamycin (TN), an inhibitor of GlcNAc phosphotransferase, which catalyzes the first step in glycoprotein synthesis, has been used to induce ER stress by causing the accumulation of unfolded proteins in the ER lumen (Noh et al., 2003; Kamauchi et al., 2005; Reis et al., 2011). If unfolded proteins are not removed, the prolonged stress will induce programmed cell death. Links between ER stress and apoptosis have been reported in response to TN treatment in mammalian cells, whereas in plants, this correlation has been suggested, but the pathways of signal transduction remain unknown (Kamauchi et al., 2005; Reis et al., 2011).In all plant tissues, heat shock (HS) induces the synthesis of a variety of heat shock proteins (HSPs), which are responsible for protein refolding under stress conditions (Craig et al., 1994) and translocation and degradation in a broad array of normal cellular processes (Bond and Schlesinger, 1986; Spiess et al., 1999). In the barley aleurone layer, HS selectively suppresses the synthesis of secretory proteins, including α-amylase, due to the selective destabilization of secretory protein mRNA (Belanger et al., 1986; Brodl and Ho, 1991). However, an acclimation effect has been described in aleurone cells after prolonged incubation at warm temperatures, resulting in a resumption of the protein secretory machinery (Shaw and Brodl, 2003). The connection between heat stress response and ER stress has been well established in mammals and yeast, but scarce information is available in plants (Denecke et al., 1995).Over the last years, the dual role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been established in plants: at higher concentrations, ROS act as toxic molecules damaging cellular macromolecules, eventually causing cell death, but at lower concentrations, ROS seem to be necessary for seed germination and seedling growth by controlling the cellular redox status, regulating growth and protecting against pathogens (Bailly, 2004; Bailly et al., 2008). In the barley aleurone layer, GA3 perceived at the plasma membrane induces ROS generation as a by-product from intense lipid metabolism, and the redox regulation of the GA3-induced response has been proposed (Maya-Ampudia and Bernal-Lugo, 2006). This suggests that during the secretory function of the tissue, moderate levels of ROS may be acting as cellular messengers. In aleurone cells, ROS, especially hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), are involved in the process of programmed cell death, but the molecular mechanisms remain unclear (Bethke and Jones, 2001; Ishibashi et al., 2012).Until now, none of the protein components of the ER stress pathways have been identified in barley; also, little is known about the glycosylation of barley proteins. In this work, numerous N-glycoslation sites are identified, and the effect of perturbing N-glycosylation and the secretory pathway by TN and HS treatments is analyzed in GA3-induced barley aleurone layers. 相似文献

The role of calcium-mediated signaling has been extensively studied in plant responses to abiotic stress signals. Calcineurin B-like proteins (CBLs) and CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) constitute a complex signaling network acting in diverse plant stress responses. Osmotic stress imposed by soil salinity and drought is a major abiotic stress that impedes plant growth and development and involves calcium-signaling processes. In this study, we report the functional analysis of CIPK21, an Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) CBL-interacting protein kinase, ubiquitously expressed in plant tissues and up-regulated under multiple abiotic stress conditions. The growth of a loss-of-function mutant of CIPK21, cipk21, was hypersensitive to high salt and osmotic stress conditions. The calcium sensors CBL2 and CBL3 were found to physically interact with CIPK21 and target this kinase to the tonoplast. Moreover, preferential localization of CIPK21 to the tonoplast was detected under salt stress condition when coexpressed with CBL2 or CBL3. These findings suggest that CIPK21 mediates responses to salt stress condition in Arabidopsis, at least in part, by regulating ion and water homeostasis across the vacuolar membranes.Drought and salinity cause osmotic stress in plants and severely affect crop productivity throughout the world. Plants respond to osmotic stress by changing a number of cellular processes (Xiong et al., 1999; Xiong and Zhu, 2002; Bartels and Sunkar, 2005; Boudsocq and Lauriére, 2005). Some of these changes include activation of stress-responsive genes, regulation of membrane transport at both plasma membrane (PM) and vacuolar membrane (tonoplast) to maintain water and ionic homeostasis, and metabolic changes to produce compatible osmolytes such as Pro (Stewart and Lee, 1974; Krasensky and Jonak, 2012). It has been well established that a specific calcium (Ca2+) signature is generated in response to a particular environmental stimulus (Trewavas and Malhó, 1998; Scrase-Field and Knight, 2003; Luan, 2009; Kudla et al., 2010). The Ca2+ changes are primarily perceived by several Ca2+ sensors such as calmodulin (Reddy, 2001; Luan et al., 2002), Ca2+-dependent protein kinases (Harper and Harmon, 2005), calcineurin B-like proteins (CBLs; Luan et al., 2002; Batistič and Kudla, 2004; Pandey, 2008; Luan, 2009; Sanyal et al., 2015), and other Ca2+-binding proteins (Reddy, 2001; Shao et al., 2008) to initiate various cellular responses.Plant CBL-type Ca2+ sensors interact with and activate CBL-interacting protein kinases (CIPKs) that phosphorylate downstream components to transduce Ca2+ signals (Liu et al., 2000; Luan et al., 2002; Batistič and Kudla, 2004; Luan, 2009). In several plant species, multiple members have been identified in the CBL and CIPK family (Luan et al., 2002; Kolukisaoglu et al., 2004; Pandey, 2008; Batistič and Kudla, 2009; Weinl and Kudla, 2009; Pandey et al., 2014). Involvement of specific CBL-CIPK pair to decode a particular type of signal entails the alternative and selective complex formation leading to stimulus-response coupling (D’Angelo et al., 2006; Batistič et al., 2010).Several CBL and CIPK family members have been implicated in plant responses to drought, salinity, and osmotic stress based on genetic analysis of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) mutants (Zhu, 2002; Cheong et al., 2003, 2007; Kim et al., 2003; Pandey et al., 2004, 2008; D’Angelo et al., 2006; Qin et al., 2008; Tripathi et al., 2009; Held et al., 2011; Tang et al., 2012; Drerup et al., 2013; Eckert et al., 2014). A few CIPKs have also been functionally characterized by gain-of-function approach in crop plants such as rice (Oryza sativa), pea (Pisum sativum), and maize (Zea mays) and were found to be involved in osmotic stress responses (Mahajan et al., 2006; Xiang et al., 2007; Yang et al., 2008; Tripathi et al., 2009; Zhao et al., 2009; Cuéllar et al., 2010).In this report, we examined the role of the Arabidopsis CIPK21 gene in osmotic stress response by reverse genetic analysis. The loss-of-function mutant plants became hypersensitive to salt and mannitol stress conditions, suggesting that CIPK21 is involved in the regulation of osmotic stress response in Arabidopsis. These findings are further supported by an enhanced tonoplast targeting of the cytoplasmic CIPK21 through interaction with the vacuolar Ca2+ sensors CBL2 and CBL3 under salt stress condition. 相似文献

The viral genome-linked protein, VPg, of potyviruses is a multifunctional protein involved in viral genome translation and replication. Previous studies have shown that both eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) and eIF4G or their respective isoforms from the eIF4F complex, which modulates the initiation of protein translation, selectively interact with VPg and are required for potyvirus infection. Here, we report the identification of two DEAD-box RNA helicase-like proteins, PpDDXL and AtRH8 from peach (Prunus persica) and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), respectively, both interacting with VPg. We show that AtRH8 is dispensable for plant growth and development but necessary for potyvirus infection. In potyvirus-infected Nicotiana benthamiana leaf tissues, AtRH8 colocalizes with the chloroplast-bound virus accumulation vesicles, suggesting a possible role of AtRH8 in viral genome translation and replication. Deletion analyses of AtRH8 have identified the VPg-binding region. Comparison of this region and the corresponding region of PpDDXL suggests that they are highly conserved and share the same secondary structure. Moreover, overexpression of the VPg-binding region from either AtRH8 or PpDDXL suppresses potyvirus accumulation in infected N. benthamiana leaf tissues. Taken together, these data demonstrate that AtRH8, interacting with VPg, is a host factor required for the potyvirus infection process and that both AtRH8 and PpDDXL may be manipulated for the development of genetic resistance against potyvirus infections.Plant viruses are obligate intracellular parasites that infect many agriculturally important crops and cause severe losses each year. One of the common characteristics of plant viruses is their relatively small genome that encodes a limited number of viral proteins, making them dependent on host factors to fulfill their infection cycles (Maule et al., 2002; Whitham and Wang, 2004; Nelson and Citovsky, 2005; Decroocq et al., 2006). In order to establish a successful infection, the invading virus must recruit an array of host proteins (host factors) to translate and replicate its genome and to move locally from cell to cell via the plasmodesmata and systemically via the vascular system. It has been suggested that down-regulation or mutation of some of the required host factors may result in recessively inherited resistance to viruses (Kang et al., 2005b).Potyviruses, belonging to the genus Potyvirus in the family Potyviradae, constitute the largest group of plant viruses (Rajamäki et al., 2004). Potyviruses have a single positive-strand RNA genome approximately 10 kb in length, with a viral genome-linked protein (VPg) covalently attached to the 5′ end and a poly(A) tail at the 3′ end (Urcuqui-Inchima et al., 2001; Rajamäki et al., 2004). The viral genome contains a single open reading frame (ORF) that translates into a polypeptide with a molecular mass of approximately 350 kD, which is cleaved into 10 mature proteins by viral proteases (Urcuqui-Inchima et al., 2001). Recently, a novel viral protein resulting from a frameshift in the P3 cistron has been reported (Chung et al., 2008). Of the 11 viral proteins, VPg is a multifunctional protein and the only other viral protein present in the viral particles (virions) besides the coat protein and the cylindrical inclusion protein (CI; Oruetxebarria et al., 2001; Puustinen et al., 2002; Gabrenaite-Verkhovskaya et al., 2008). The nonstructural protein is linked to the viral RNA by a phosphodiester bond between the 5′ terminal uridine residue of the RNA and the O4-hydroxyl group of amino acid Tyr (Murphy et al., 1996; Oruetxebarria et al., 2001; Puustinen et al., 2002). Mutation of the Tyr residue that links VPg to the viral RNA abolishes virus infectivity completely (Murphy et al., 1996). In infected cells, VPg and its precursor NIa are present in the nucleus and in the membrane-associated virus replication vesicles in the cytoplasm (Carrington et al., 1993; Rajamäki and Valkonen, 2003; Cotton et al., 2009). As a component of the replication complex, VPg may serve as a primer for viral RNA replication (Puustinen and Mäkinen, 2004) and as an analog of the m7G cap of mRNAs for the viral genome to recruit the translation complex for translation (Michon et al., 2006; Beauchemin et al., 2007; Khan et al., 2008). Furthermore, VPg has been suggested to be an avirulence factor for recessive resistance genes in diverse plant species (Moury et al., 2004; Kang et al., 2005b; Bruun-Rasmussen et al., 2007). Thus, VPg plays a pivotal role in the virus infection process. The molecular identification of VPg-interacting host proteins and the subsequent functional characterization of such interactions may advance knowledge of the intricate virus replication mechanisms and help develop novel antiviral strategies.Previous studies have shown that VPg and its precursor NIa interact with several host proteins, including three essential components of the host protein translation apparatus (Thivierge et al., 2008). The first protein is the cellular translation initiation factor eIF4E or its isoform eIF(iso)4E, identified through a yeast two-hybrid screen using VPg as a bait (Wittmann et al., 1997; Schaad et al., 2000). The protein complex of VPg and eIF4E is an essential component for virus infectivity (Robaglia and Caranta, 2006). Mutations and knockout of eIF4E or eIF(iso)4E confer resistance to infection (Lellis et al., 2002; Ruffel et al., 2002; Nicaise et al., 2003; Gao et al., 2004; Kang et al., 2005a; Ruffel et al., 2005; Decroocq et al., 2006; Bruun-Rasmussen et al., 2007). It is well known that potyviruses recruit selectively one of the eIF4E isoforms, depending on specific virus-host combinations (German-Retana et al., 2008). For instance, in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), eIF(iso)4E is required for infection by Turnip mosaic virus (TuMV), Plum pox virus (PPV), and Lettuce mosaic virus, while eIF4E is indispensable for infection by Clover yellow vein virus (Duprat et al., 2002; Lellis et al., 2002; Sato et al., 2005; Decroocq et al., 2006). The second cellular protein interacting with VPg is another translation initiation factor, eIF4G. Analysis of Arabidopsis knockout mutants for eIF4G or its isomers eIF(iso)4G1 and eIF(iso)4G2 has yielded results supporting the idea that the recruitment of eIF4G for potyvirus infection is also isoform dependent (Nicaise et al., 2007). Recently, poly(A)-binding protein (PABP), the translation initiation factor that bridges the 5′ and 3′ termini of the mRNA into proximity, has been proposed to be essential for efficient multiplication of TuMV (Dufresne et al., 2008). PABP was previously documented to interact with NIa, a VPg precursor containing both VPg and the proteinase NIa-Pro (Léonard et al., 2004). As the translation factors eIF(iso)4E and PABP have been found to be internalized in virus-induced vesicles, it has been suggested that the interactions between VPg and these translation factors are crucial for viral RNA translation and/or replication (Beauchemin and Laliberté, 2007; Beauchemin et al., 2007; Cotton et al., 2009). Besides these three translation factors, a Cys-rich plant protein, potyvirus VPg-interaction protein, was also found to associate with VPg (Dunoyer et al., 2004). This plant-specific VPg-interacting host protein contains a PHD finger domain and acts as an ancillary factor to support potyvirus infection and movement (Dunoyer et al., 2004).In this study, we describe the identification of an Arabidopsis DEAD-box RNA helicase (DDX), AtRH8, and a peach (Prunus persica) DDX-like protein, PpDDXL, both interacting with the potyviral VPg protein. Using the atrh8 mutant, we demonstrate that AtRH8 is not required for plant growth and development in Arabidopsis but is necessary for infection by two plant potyviruses, PPV and TuMV. Furthermore, we present evidence that AtRH8 colocalizes with the virus accumulation complex in potyvirus-infected leaf tissues, which reveals a possible role of AtRH8 in virus infection. Finally, we have identified the VPg-binding region (VPg-BR) of AtRH8 and PpDDX and show that overexpression of the VPg-BR either from AtRH8 or PpDDXL suppresses virus accumulation. 相似文献

Metabolomics enables quantitative evaluation of metabolic changes caused by genetic or environmental perturbations. However, little is known about how perturbing a single gene changes the metabolic system as a whole and which network and functional properties are involved in this response. To answer this question, we investigated the metabolite profiles from 136 mutants with single gene perturbations of functionally diverse Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genes. Fewer than 10 metabolites were changed significantly relative to the wild type in most of the mutants, indicating that the metabolic network was robust to perturbations of single metabolic genes. These changed metabolites were closer to each other in a genome-scale metabolic network than expected by chance, supporting the notion that the genetic perturbations changed the network more locally than globally. Surprisingly, the changed metabolites were close to the perturbed reactions in only 30% of the mutants of the well-characterized genes. To determine the factors that contributed to the distance between the observed metabolic changes and the perturbation site in the network, we examined nine network and functional properties of the perturbed genes. Only the isozyme number affected the distance between the perturbed reactions and changed metabolites. This study revealed patterns of metabolic changes from large-scale gene perturbations and relationships between characteristics of the perturbed genes and metabolic changes.Rational and quantitative assessment of metabolic changes in response to genetic modification (GM) is an open question and in need of innovative solutions. Nontargeted metabolite profiling can detect thousands of compounds, but it is not easy to understand the significance of the changed metabolites in the biochemical and biological context of the organism. To better assess the changes in metabolites from nontargeted metabolomics studies, it is important to examine the changed metabolites in the context of the genome-scale metabolic network of the organism.Metabolomics is a technique that aims to quantify all the metabolites in a biological system (Nikolau and Wurtele, 2007; Nicholson and Lindon, 2008; Roessner and Bowne, 2009). It has been used widely in studies ranging from disease diagnosis (Holmes et al., 2008; DeBerardinis and Thompson, 2012) and drug discovery (Cascante et al., 2002; Kell, 2006) to metabolic reconstruction (Feist et al., 2009; Kim et al., 2012) and metabolic engineering (Keasling, 2010; Lee et al., 2011). Metabolomic studies have demonstrated the possibility of identifying gene functions from changes in the relative concentrations of metabolites (metabotypes or metabolic signatures; Ebbels et al., 2004) in various species including yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae; Raamsdonk et al., 2001; Allen et al., 2003), Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; Brotman et al., 2011), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum; Schauer et al., 2006), and maize (Zea mays; Riedelsheimer et al., 2012). Metabolomics has also been used to better understand how plants interact with their environments (Field and Lake, 2011), including their responses to biotic and abiotic stresses (Dixon et al., 2006; Arbona et al., 2013), and to predict important agronomic traits (Riedelsheimer et al., 2012). Metabolite profiling has been performed on many plant species, including angiosperms such as Arabidopsis, poplar (Populus trichocarpa), and Catharanthus roseus (Sumner et al., 2003; Rischer et al., 2006), basal land plants such as Selaginella moellendorffii and Physcomitrella patens (Erxleben et al., 2012; Yobi et al., 2012), and Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Fernie et al., 2012; Davis et al., 2013). With the availability of whole genome sequences of various species, metabolomics has the potential to become a useful tool for elucidating the functions of genes using large-scale systematic analyses (Fiehn et al., 2000; Saito and Matsuda, 2010; Hur et al., 2013).Although metabolomics data have the potential for identifying the roles of genes that are associated with metabolic phenotypes, the biochemical mechanisms that link functions of genes with metabolic phenotypes are still poorly characterized. For example, we do not yet know the principles behind how perturbing the expression of a single gene changes the metabolic system as a whole. Large-scale metabolomics data have provided useful resources for linking phenotypes to genotypes (Fiehn et al., 2000; Roessner et al., 2001; Tikunov et al., 2005; Schauer et al., 2006; Lu et al., 2011; Fukushima et al., 2014). For example, Lu et al. (2011) compared morphological and metabolic phenotypes from more than 5,000 Arabidopsis chloroplast mutants using gas chromatography (GC)- and liquid chromatography (LC)-mass spectrometry (MS). Fukushima et al. (2014) generated metabolite profiles from various characterized and uncharacterized mutant plants and clustered the mutants with similar metabolic phenotypes by conducting multidimensional scaling with quantified metabolic phenotypes. Nonetheless, representation and analysis of such a large amount of data remains a challenge for scientific discovery (Lu et al., 2011). In addition, these studies do not examine the topological and functional characteristics of metabolic changes in the context of a genome-scale metabolic network. To understand the relationship between genotype and metabolic phenotype, we need to investigate the metabolic changes caused by perturbing the expression of a gene in a genome-scale metabolic network perspective, because metabolic pathways are not independent biochemical factories but are components of a complex network (Berg et al., 2002; Merico et al., 2009).Much progress has been made in the last 2 decades to represent metabolism at a genome scale (Terzer et al., 2009). The advances in genome sequencing and emerging fields such as biocuration and bioinformatics enabled the representation of genome-scale metabolic network reconstructions for model organisms (Bassel et al., 2012). Genome-scale metabolic models have been built and applied broadly from microbes to plants. The first step toward modeling a genome-scale metabolism in a plant species started with developing a genome-scale metabolic pathway database for Arabidopsis (AraCyc; Mueller et al., 2003) from reference pathway databases (Kanehisa and Goto, 2000; Karp et al., 2002; Zhang et al., 2010). Genome-scale metabolic pathway databases have been built for several plant species (Mueller et al., 2005; Zhang et al., 2005, 2010; Urbanczyk-Wochniak and Sumner, 2007; May et al., 2009; Dharmawardhana et al., 2013; Monaco et al., 2013, 2014; Van Moerkercke et al., 2013; Chae et al., 2014; Jung et al., 2014). Efforts have been made to develop predictive genome-scale metabolic models using enzyme kinetics and stoichiometric flux-balance approaches (Sweetlove et al., 2008). de Oliveira Dal’Molin et al. (2010) developed a genome-scale metabolic model for Arabidopsis and successfully validated the model by predicting the classical photorespiratory cycle as well as known key differences between redox metabolism in photosynthetic and nonphotosynthetic plant cells. Other genome-scale models have been developed for Arabidopsis (Poolman et al., 2009; Radrich et al., 2010; Mintz-Oron et al., 2012), C. reinhardtii (Chang et al., 2011; Dal’Molin et al., 2011), maize (Dal’Molin et al., 2010; Saha et al., 2011), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor; Dal’Molin et al., 2010), and sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum; Dal’Molin et al., 2010). These predictive models have the potential to be applied broadly in fields such as metabolic engineering, drug target discovery, identification of gene function, study of evolutionary processes, risk assessment of genetically modified crops, and interpretations of mutant phenotypes (Feist and Palsson, 2008; Ricroch et al., 2011).Here, we interrogate the metabotypes caused by 136 single gene perturbations of Arabidopsis by analyzing the relative concentration changes of 1,348 chemically identified metabolites using a reconstructed genome-scale metabolic network. We examine the characteristics of the changed metabolites (the metabolites whose relative concentrations were significantly different in mutants relative to the wild type) in the metabolic network to uncover biological and topological consequences of the perturbed genes. 相似文献
