Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) encodes the 2b protein, which plays a role in local and systemic virus movement, symptom induction and suppression of RNA silencing. It also disrupts signalling regulated by salicylic acid and jasmonic acid. CMV induced an increase in tolerance to drought in Arabidopsis thaliana. This was caused by the 2b protein, as transgenic plants expressing this viral factor showed increased drought tolerance, but plants infected with CMVΔ2b, a viral mutant lacking the 2b gene, did not. The silencing effector ARGONAUTE1 (AGO1) controls a microRNA‐mediated drought tolerance mechanism and, in this study, we noted that plants (dcl2/3/4 triple mutants) lacking functional short‐interfering RNA‐mediated silencing were also drought tolerant. However, drought tolerance engendered by CMV may be independent of the silencing suppressor activity of the 2b protein. Although CMV infection did not alter the accumulation of the drought response hormone abscisic acid (ABA), 2b‐transgenic and ago1‐mutant seeds were hypersensitive to ABA‐mediated inhibition of germination. However, the induction of ABA‐regulated genes in 2b‐transgenic and CMV‐infected plants was inhibited more strongly than in ago1‐mutant plants. The virus engenders drought tolerance by altering the characteristics of the roots and not of the aerial tissues as, compared with the leaves of silencing mutants, leaves excised from CMV‐infected or 2b‐transgenic plants showed greater stomatal permeability and lost water more rapidly. This further indicates that CMV‐induced drought tolerance is not mediated via a change in the silencing‐regulated drought response mechanism. Under natural conditions, virus‐induced drought tolerance may serve viruses by aiding susceptible hosts to survive periods of environmental stress. 相似文献

The role of glycosylation in the function of the T2 family of RNases is not well understood. In this work, we examined how glycosylation affects the progression of the T2 RNase Rny1p through the secretory pathway in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We found that Rny1p requires entering into the ER first to become active and uses the adaptor protein Erv29p for packaging into COPII vesicles and transport to the Golgi apparatus. While inside the ER, Rny1p undergoes initial N‐linked core glycosylation at four sites, N37, N70, N103 and N123. Rny1p transport to the Golgi results in the further attachment of high‐glycans. Whereas modifications with glycans are dispensable for the nucleolytic activity of Rny1p, Golgi‐mediated modifications are critical for its extracellular secretion. Failure of Golgi‐specific glycosylation appears to direct Rny1p to the vacuole as an alternative destination and/or site of terminal degradation. These data reveal a previously unknown function of Golgi glycosylation in a T2 RNase as a sorting and secretion signal . 相似文献

We have isolated and characterized a putative rice MAPK gene (designated OsMAPK44) encoding for a protein of 593 amino acids that has the MAPK family signature and phosphorylation activation motif, TDY. Alignment of the predicted amino acid sequences of OsMAPK44 showed high homology with other rice MAPKs. Under normal conditions, the OsMAPK44 gene is highly expressed in root tissues, but relatively less in leaf and stem tissues of the japonica type rice plant (O. sativa L. Donggin). mRNA expression of the gene is highly inducible by salt and drought treatment, but not by cold treatment. Moreover, the mRNA level of the OsMAPK44 is up-regulated by exogenously applied Abscisic acid (ABA) and H2O2. When we compared the OsMAPK44 gene expression level between a salt sensitive indica cultivar (IR64) and a salt resistant indica cultivar (Pokkali), they showed some difference in expression kinetics with the salt treatment. OsMAPK44 gene expression in Pokkali was slightly up-regulated within 30 min and then disappeared rapidly, while IR64 maintained its expression for 1 h following down-regulation. Under the salinity stress, OsMAPK44 overexpression transgenic rice plants showed less damage and greater ratio of potassium and sodium than OsMAPK44 suppressed transgenic lines did, suggesting that OsMAPK44 may have a role to prevent damages due to working for favorable ion balance in the presence of salinity. 相似文献

Apoptosis modulation is a procedure amply utilized by intracellular pathogens to favour the outcome of the infection. Nevertheless, the role of apoptosis during infection with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the causative agent of human tuberculosis, is subject of an intense debate and still remains unclear. In this work, we describe that apoptosis induction in host cells is clearly restricted to virulent M. tuberculosis strains, and is associated with the capacity of the mycobacteria to secrete the 6 kDa early secreted antigenic target ESAT‐6 bothunder in vitro and in vivo conditions. Remarkably, only apoptosis‐inducing strains are able to propagate infection into new cells, suggesting that apoptosis is used by M. tuberculosis as a colonization mechanism. Finally, we demonstrate that in vitro modulation of apoptosis affects mycobacterial cell‐to‐cell spread capacity, establishing an unambiguous relationship between apoptosis and propagation of M. tuberculosis. Our data further indicate that BCG and MTBVAC vaccines are inefficient in inducing apoptosis and colonizing new cells, correlating with the strong attenuation profile of these strains previously observed in vitro and in vivo. 相似文献

Maintenance of cellular proteostasis relies on efficient clearance of defective gene products. For misfolded secretory proteins, this involves dislocation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) into the cytosol followed by proteasomal degradation. However, polypeptide aggregation prevents cytosolic dislocation and instead activates ill‐defined lysosomal catabolic pathways. Here, we describe an ER‐to‐lysosome‐associated degradation pathway (ERLAD) for proteasome‐resistant polymers of alpha1‐antitrypsin Z (ATZ). ERLAD involves the ER‐chaperone calnexin (CNX) and the engagement of the LC3 lipidation machinery by the ER‐resident ER‐phagy receptor FAM134B, echoing the initiation of starvation‐induced, receptor‐mediated ER‐phagy. However, in striking contrast to ER‐phagy, ATZ polymer delivery from the ER lumen to LAMP1/RAB7‐positive endolysosomes for clearance does not require ER capture within autophagosomes. Rather, it relies on vesicular transport where single‐membrane, ER‐derived, ATZ‐containing vesicles release their luminal content within endolysosomes upon membrane:membrane fusion events mediated by the ER‐resident SNARE STX17 and the endolysosomal SNARE VAMP8. These results may help explain the lack of benefits of pharmacologic macroautophagy enhancement that has been reported for some luminal aggregopathies. 相似文献

Loss-of-functional mutation in the DJ-1 gene causes a subset of familial Parkinson's disease. The mechanism underlying DJ-1-related selective vulnerability in the dopaminergic pathway is, however, not known. Dopamine is synthesized by two enzymes and then packed into synaptic vesicles by vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2). In this study, we found that knockdown of DJ-1 expression reduced the levels of mRNA and protein of VMAT2, resulting in reduced VMAT2 activity. Co-immunoprecipitation and pull-down experiments revealed that DJ-1 directly bound to VMAT2, and DJ-1 was co-localized with VMAT2 in cells. Furthermore, ectopic expression of wild-type DJ-1, but not that of L166P, M26I and C106S mutants of DJ-1, increased mRNA and protein levels of VMAT2 and VMAT2 activity. Since VMAT2 and a portion of DJ-1 are localized in the synaptic membrane, these results suggest that DJ-1, but not pathogenically mutated DJ-1, stimulates VMAT2 activity in the synapse by transactivation of the VMAT gene and by direct binding to VMAT2 and that cysteine 106 is necessary for the stimulating activity of DJ-1 toward VMAT2. 相似文献
