Alpha-1,4-Linked oligogalacturonides (OGs) are pectic fragments of the plant cell wall that are perceived by the plant cell as signalling molecules. Using cytosolic aequorin-expressing soybean (Glycine max L.) cells, we have analysed cytosolic Ca(2+) changes and the oxidative burst induced by OGs with different degrees of polymerization. Our results provide evidence that different OGs are sensed through transient elevations of cytosolic Ca(2+) that show different kinetics. Specificity of the Ca(2+) signature relies also on the precise structural characteristics of the OG molecules, such as the methylesterification of galacturonic acid residues and the steric conformation. Inhibition of the OG-induced Ca(2+) transient also blocks the oxidative burst, indicating that the cytosolic Ca(2+) increase is one of the earliest steps in OG-activated signalling. However, a phosphorylation event seems to precede the Ca(2+) rise, because the Ca(2+) transient could be abolished by the protein kinase inhibitor 4,5,6,7-tetrabromobenzotriazole (TBB). A pharmacological approach with different antagonists that interfere with the induction of the cytosolic Ca(2+) rise indicates that both extracellular Ca(2+) influx and intracellular Ca(2+) release participate in transducing the OG signal. Treatment of cells with OGs establishes a refractory state, which impairs the ability of the cell to respond to a second stimulus with the same elicitor for up to 16 h. This desensitization period could be prolonged with the phosphatase inhibitor okadaic acid, and eliminated with the protein kinase inhibitor Ro 31-8220, suggesting that phosphorylation events may be involved in the establishment of the cell refractory state. 相似文献

Oligogalacturonides (OGs) released from plant cell walls by pathogen polygalacturonases induce a variety of host defense responses. Here we show that in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), OGs increase resistance to the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea independently of jasmonate (JA)-, salicylic acid (SA)-, and ethylene (ET)-mediated signaling. Microarray analysis showed that about 50% of the genes regulated by OGs, including genes encoding enzymes involved in secondary metabolism, show a similar change of expression during B. cinerea infection. In particular, expression of PHYTOALEXIN DEFICIENT3 (PAD3) is strongly up-regulated by both OGs and infection independently of SA, JA, and ET. OG treatments do not enhance resistance to B. cinerea in the pad3 mutant or in underinducer after pathogen and stress1, a mutant with severely impaired PAD3 expression in response to OGs. Similarly to OGs, the bacterial flagellin peptide elicitor flg22 also enhanced resistance to B. cinerea in a PAD3-dependent manner, independently of SA, JA, and ET. This work suggests, therefore, that elicitors released from the cell wall during pathogen infection contribute to basal resistance against fungal pathogens through a signaling pathway also activated by pathogen-associated molecular pattern molecules. 相似文献

The Arabidopsis calcium-dependent protein kinase, CPK6, functions as a positive regulator of methyl jasmonate signaling in guard cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Previous studies have demonstrated that methyl jasmonate (MeJA) induces stomatal closure dependent on change of cytosolic free calcium concentration in guard cells. However, these molecular mechanisms of intracellular Ca(2+) signal perception remain unknown. Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) function as Ca(2+) signal transducers in various plant physiological processes. It has been reported that four Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) CDPKs, CPK3, CPK6, CPK4, and CPK11, are involved in abscisic acid signaling in guard cells. It is also known that there is an interaction between MeJA and abscisic acid signaling in guard cells. In this study, we examined the roles of these CDPKs in MeJA signaling in guard cells using Arabidopsis mutants disrupted in the CDPK genes. Disruption of the CPK6 gene impaired MeJA-induced stomatal closure, but disruption of the other CDPK genes did not. Despite the broad expression pattern of CPK6, we did not find other remarkable MeJA-insensitive phenotypes in the cpk6-1 mutant. The whole-cell patch-clamp analysis revealed that MeJA activation of nonselective Ca(2+)-permeable cation channels is impaired in the cpk6-1 mutant. Consistent with this result, MeJA-induced transient cytosolic free calcium concentration increments were reduced in the cpk6-1 mutant. MeJA failed to activate slow-type anion channels in the cpk6-1 guard cells. Production of early signal components, reactive oxygen species and nitric oxide, in guard cells was elicited by MeJA in the cpk6-1 mutant as in the wild type. These results provide genetic evidence that CPK6 has a different role from CPK3 and functions as a positive regulator of MeJA signaling in Arabidopsis guard cells. 相似文献

The implication of calcium as intracellular messenger in the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis has not yet been directly demonstrated, although often envisaged. We used soybean (Glycine max) cell cultures stably expressing the bioluminescent Ca(2+) indicator aequorin to detect intracellular Ca(2+) changes in response to the culture medium of spores of Gigaspora margarita germinating in the absence of the plant partner. Rapid and transient elevations in cytosolic free Ca(2+) were recorded, indicating that diffusible molecules released by the mycorrhizal fungus are perceived by host plant cells through a Ca(2+)-mediated signaling. Similar responses were also triggered by two Glomus isolates. The fungal molecules active in generating the Ca(2+) transient were constitutively released in the medium, and the induced Ca(2+) signature was not modified by the coculture of germinating spores with plant cells. Even ungerminated spores were able to generate the signaling molecules, as proven when the germination was blocked by a low temperature. The fungal molecules were found to be stable to heat treatment, of small molecular mass (<3 kD), and, on the basis of extraction with an organic solvent, partially lipophilic. Evidence for the specificity of such an early fungal signal to the AM symbiosis is suggested by the lack of a Ca(2+) response in cultured cells of the nonhost plant Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and by the up-regulation in soybean cells of genes related to Medicago truncatula DMI1, DMI2, and DMI3 and considered essential for the establishment of the AM symbiosis. 相似文献

The putative two-pore Ca(2+) channel TPC1 has been suggested to be involved in responses to abiotic and biotic stresses. We show that AtTPC1 co-localizes with the K(+)-selective channel AtTPK1 in the vacuolar membrane. Loss of AtTPC1 abolished Ca(2+)-activated slow vacuolar (SV) currents, which were increased in AtTPC1-over-expressing Arabidopsis compared to the wild-type. A Ca(2+)-insensitive vacuolar cation channel, as yet uncharacterized, could be resolved in tpc1-2 knockout plants. The kinetics of ABA- and CO(2)-induced stomatal closure were similar in wild-type and tpc1-2 knockout plants, excluding a role of SV channels in guard-cell signalling in response to these physiological stimuli. ABA-, K(+)-, and Ca(2+)-dependent root growth phenotypes were not changed in tpc1-2 compared to wild-type plants. Given the permeability of SV channels to mono- and divalent cations, the question arises as to whether TPC1 in vivo represents a pathway for Ca(2+) entry into the cytosol. Ca(2+) responses as measured in aequorin-expressing wild-type, tpc1-2 knockout and TPC1-over-expressing plants disprove a contribution of TPC1 to any of the stimulus-induced Ca(2+) signals tested, including abiotic stresses (cold, hyperosmotic, salt and oxidative), elevation in extracellular Ca(2+) concentration and biotic factors (elf18, flg22). In good agreement, stimulus- and Ca(2+)-dependent gene activation was not affected by alterations in TPC1 expression. Together with our finding that the loss of TPC1 did not change the activity of hyperpolarization-activated Ca(2+)-permeable channels in the plasma membrane, we conclude that TPC1, under physiological conditions, functions as a vacuolar cation channel without a major impact on cytosolic Ca(2+) homeostasis. 相似文献

Oligogalacturonides (OGs) are endogenous elicitors of defense responses released after partial degradation of pectin in the plant cell wall. We have previously shown that, in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), OGs induce the expression of PHYTOALEXIN DEFICIENT3 (PAD3) and increase resistance to the necrotrophic fungal pathogen Botrytis cinerea independently of signaling pathways mediated by jasmonate, salicylic acid, and ethylene. Here, we illustrate that the rapid induction of the expression of a variety of genes by OGs is also independent of salicylic acid, ethylene, and jasmonate. OGs elicit a robust extracellular oxidative burst that is generated by the NADPH oxidase AtrbohD. This burst is not required for the expression of OG-responsive genes or for OG-induced resistance to B. cinerea, whereas callose accumulation requires a functional AtrbohD. OG-induced resistance to B. cinerea is also unaffected in powdery mildew resistant4, despite the fact that callose accumulation was almost abolished in this mutant. These results indicate that the OG-induced oxidative burst is not required for the activation of defense responses effective against B. cinerea, leaving open the question of the role of reactive oxygen species in elicitor-mediated defense. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced by NADPH oxidases play critical roles in signalling and development. Given the high toxicity of ROS, their production is tightly regulated. In Arabidopsis, respiratory burst oxidase homologue F (AtrbohF) encodes NADPH oxidase. Here we characterised the activation of AtRbohF using a heterologous expression system. AtRbohF exhibited ROS-producing activity that was synergistically activated by protein phosphorylation and Ca2+. The two EF-hand motifs of AtRbohF in the N-terminal cytosolic region were crucial for its Ca2+-dependent activation. AtrbohD and AtrbohF are involved in stress responses. Although the activation mechanisms for AtRbohD and AtRbohF were similar, AtRbohD had significantly greater ROS-producing activity than AtRbohF, which may reflect their functional diversity, at least in part. We further characterised the interrelationship between Ca2+ and phosphorylation regarding activation and found that protein phosphorylation-induced activation was independent of Ca2+. In contrast, K-252a, a protein kinase inhibitor, inhibited the Ca2+-dependent ROS-producing activity of AtRbohD and AtRbohF in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that protein phosphorylation is a prerequisite for the Ca2+-dependent activation of Rboh. Positive feedback regulation of Ca2+ and ROS through AtRbohC has been proposed to play a critical role in root hair tip growth. Our findings suggest that Rboh phosphorylation is the initial trigger for the plant Ca2+-ROS signalling network. 相似文献

Cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNGCs) are a recently identified family of plant ion channels. They show a high degree of similarity to Shaker-type voltage-gated channels and contain a C-terminal cyclic nucleotide-binding domain with an overlapping calmodulin-binding domain. Heterologously expressed plant CNGCs show activation by cyclic nucleotides and permeability to monovalent and divalent cations. In plants, downstream effectors of cyclic nucleotide signals have so far remained obscure, and CNGCs might be their prime targets. The unique position of CNGCs as ligand-gated Ca(2+)-permeable channels suggests that they function at key sites where cyclic nucleotide and Ca(2+) signalling pathways interact. Such processes include plant defence responses, and two recently characterized Arabidopsis mutants in CNGC genes indeed show altered pathogen responses. 相似文献
