Necrotrophic and biotrophic pathogens are resisted by different plant defenses. While necrotrophic pathogens are sensitive to jasmonic acid (JA)-dependent resistance, biotrophic pathogens are resisted by salicylic acid (SA)- and reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent resistance. Although many pathogens switch from biotrophy to necrotrophy during infection, little is known about the signals triggering this transition. This study is based on the observation that the early colonization pattern and symptom development by the ascomycete pathogen Plectosphaerella cucumerina (P. cucumerina) vary between inoculation methods. Using the Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) defense response as a proxy for infection strategy, we examined whether P. cucumerina alternates between hemibiotrophic and necrotrophic lifestyles, depending on initial spore density and distribution on the leaf surface. Untargeted metabolome analysis revealed profound differences in metabolic defense signatures upon different inoculation methods. Quantification of JA and SA, marker gene expression, and cell death confirmed that infection from high spore densities activates JA-dependent defenses with excessive cell death, while infection from low spore densities induces SA-dependent defenses with lower levels of cell death. Phenotyping of Arabidopsis mutants in JA, SA, and ROS signaling confirmed that P. cucumerina is differentially resisted by JA- and SA/ROS-dependent defenses, depending on initial spore density and distribution on the leaf. Furthermore, in situ staining for early callose deposition at the infection sites revealed that necrotrophy by P. cucumerina is associated with elevated host defense. We conclude that P. cucumerina adapts to early-acting plant defenses by switching from a hemibiotrophic to a necrotrophic infection program, thereby gaining an advantage of immunity-related cell death in the host.Plant pathogens are often classified as necrotrophic or biotrophic, depending on their infection strategy (Glazebrook, 2005; Nishimura and Dangl, 2010). Necrotrophic pathogens kill living host cells and use the decayed plant tissue as a substrate to colonize the plant, whereas biotrophic pathogens parasitize living plant cells by employing effector molecules that suppress the host immune system (Pel and Pieterse, 2013). Despite this binary classification, the majority of pathogenic microbes employ a hemibiotrophic infection strategy, which is characterized by an initial biotrophic phase followed by a necrotrophic infection strategy at later stages of infection (Perfect and Green, 2001). The pathogenic fungi Magnaporthe grisea, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, and Mycosphaerella graminicola, the oomycete Phytophthora infestans, and the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae are examples of hemibiotrophic plant pathogens (Perfect and Green, 2001; Koeck et al., 2011; van Kan et al., 2014; Kabbage et al., 2015).Despite considerable progress in our understanding of plant resistance to necrotrophic and biotrophic pathogens (Glazebrook, 2005; Mengiste, 2012; Lai and Mengiste, 2013), recent debate highlights the dynamic and complex interplay between plant-pathogenic microbes and their hosts, which is raising concerns about the use of infection strategies as a static tool to classify plant pathogens. For instance, the fungal genus Botrytis is often labeled as an archetypal necrotroph, even though there is evidence that it can behave as an endophytic fungus with a biotrophic lifestyle (van Kan et al., 2014). The rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae, which is often classified as a hemibiotrophic leaf pathogen (Perfect and Green, 2001; Koeck et al., 2011), can adopt a purely biotrophic lifestyle when infecting root tissues (Marcel et al., 2010). It remains unclear which signals are responsible for the switch from biotrophy to necrotrophy and whether these signals rely solely on the physiological state of the pathogen, or whether host-derived signals play a role as well (Kabbage et al., 2015).The plant hormones salicylic acid (SA) and jasmonic acid (JA) play a central role in the activation of plant defenses (Glazebrook, 2005; Pieterse et al., 2009, 2012). The first evidence that biotrophic and necrotrophic pathogens are resisted by different immune responses came from Thomma et al. (1998), who demonstrated that Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genotypes impaired in SA signaling show enhanced susceptibility to the biotrophic pathogen Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis (formerly known as Peronospora parastitica), while JA-insensitive genotypes were more susceptible to the necrotrophic fungus Alternaria brassicicola. In subsequent years, the differential effectiveness of SA- and JA-dependent defense mechanisms has been confirmed in different plant-pathogen interactions, while additional plant hormones, such as ethylene, abscisic acid (ABA), auxins, and cytokinins, have emerged as regulators of SA- and JA-dependent defenses (Bari and Jones, 2009; Cao et al., 2011; Pieterse et al., 2012). Moreover, SA- and JA-dependent defense pathways have been shown to act antagonistically on each other, which allows plants to prioritize an appropriate defense response to attack by biotrophic pathogens, necrotrophic pathogens, or herbivores (Koornneef and Pieterse, 2008; Pieterse et al., 2009; Verhage et al., 2010).In addition to plant hormones, reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important regulatory role in plant defenses (Torres et al., 2006; Lehmann et al., 2015). Within minutes after the perception of pathogen-associated molecular patterns, NADPH oxidases and apoplastic peroxidases generate early ROS bursts (Torres et al., 2002; Daudi et al., 2012; O’Brien et al., 2012), which activate downstream defense signaling cascades (Apel and Hirt, 2004; Torres et al., 2006; Miller et al., 2009; Mittler et al., 2011; Lehmann et al., 2015). ROS play an important regulatory role in the deposition of callose (Luna et al., 2011; Pastor et al., 2013) and can also stimulate SA-dependent defenses (Chaouch et al., 2010; Yun and Chen, 2011; Wang et al., 2014; Mammarella et al., 2015). However, the spread of SA-induced apoptosis during hyperstimulation of the plant immune system is contained by the ROS-generating NADPH oxidase RBOHD (Torres et al., 2005), presumably to allow for the sufficient generation of SA-dependent defense signals from living cells that are adjacent to apoptotic cells. Nitric oxide (NO) plays an additional role in the regulation of SA/ROS-dependent defense (Trapet et al., 2015). This gaseous molecule can stimulate ROS production and cell death in the absence of SA while preventing excessive ROS production at high cellular SA levels via S-nitrosylation of RBOHD (Yun et al., 2011). Recently, it was shown that pathogen-induced accumulation of NO and ROS promotes the production of azelaic acid, a lipid derivative that primes distal plants for SA-dependent defenses (Wang et al., 2014). Hence, NO, ROS, and SA are intertwined in a complex regulatory network to mount local and systemic resistance against biotrophic pathogens. Interestingly, pathogens with a necrotrophic lifestyle can benefit from ROS/SA-dependent defenses and associated cell death (Govrin and Levine, 2000). For instance, Kabbage et al. (2013) demonstrated that S. sclerotiorum utilizes oxalic acid to repress oxidative defense signaling during initial biotrophic colonization, but it stimulates apoptosis at later stages to advance necrotrophic colonization. Moreover, SA-induced repression of JA-dependent resistance not only benefits necrotrophic pathogens but also hemibiotrophic pathogens after having switched from biotrophy to necrotrophy (Glazebrook, 2005; Pieterse et al., 2009, 2012).Plectosphaerella
cucumerina ((P. cucumerina, anamorph Plectosporum tabacinum) anamorph Plectosporum tabacinum) is a filamentous ascomycete fungus that can survive saprophytically in soil by decomposing plant material (Palm et al., 1995). The fungus can cause sudden death and blight disease in a variety of crops (Chen et al., 1999; Harrington et al., 2000). Because P. cucumerina can infect Arabidopsis leaves, the P. cucumerina-Arabidopsis interaction has emerged as a popular model system in which to study plant defense reactions to necrotrophic fungi (Berrocal-Lobo et al., 2002; Ton and Mauch-Mani, 2004; Carlucci et al., 2012; Ramos et al., 2013). Various studies have shown that Arabidopsis deploys a wide range of inducible defense strategies against P. cucumerina, including JA-, SA-, ABA-, and auxin-dependent defenses, glucosinolates (Tierens et al., 2001; Sánchez-Vallet et al., 2010; Gamir et al., 2014; Pastor et al., 2014), callose deposition (García-Andrade et al., 2011; Gamir et al., 2012, 2014; Sánchez-Vallet et al., 2012), and ROS (Tierens et al., 2002; Sánchez-Vallet et al., 2010; Barna et al., 2012; Gamir et al., 2012, 2014; Pastor et al., 2014). Recent metabolomics studies have revealed large-scale metabolic changes in P. cucumerina-infected Arabidopsis, presumably to mobilize chemical defenses (Sánchez-Vallet et al., 2010; Gamir et al., 2014; Pastor et al., 2014). Furthermore, various chemical agents have been reported to induce resistance against P. cucumerina. These chemicals include β-amino-butyric acid, which primes callose deposition and SA-dependent defenses, benzothiadiazole (BTH or Bion; Görlach et al., 1996; Ton and Mauch-Mani, 2004), which activates SA-related defenses (Lawton et al., 1996; Ton and Mauch-Mani, 2004; Gamir et al., 2014; Luna et al., 2014), JA (Ton and Mauch-Mani, 2004), and ABA, which primes ROS and callose deposition (Ton and Mauch-Mani, 2004; Pastor et al., 2013). However, among all these studies, there is increasing controversy about the exact signaling pathways and defense responses contributing to plant resistance against P. cucumerina. While it is clear that JA and ethylene contribute to basal resistance against the fungus, the exact roles of SA, ABA, and ROS in P. cucumerina resistance vary between studies (Thomma et al., 1998; Ton and Mauch-Mani, 2004; Sánchez-Vallet et al., 2012; Gamir et al., 2014).This study is based on the observation that the disease phenotype during P. cucumerina infection differs according to the inoculation method used. We provide evidence that the fungus follows a hemibiotrophic infection strategy when infecting from relatively low spore densities on the leaf surface. By contrast, when challenged by localized host defense to relatively high spore densities, the fungus switches to a necrotrophic infection program. Our study has uncovered a novel strategy by which plant-pathogenic fungi can take advantage of the early immune response in the host plant. 相似文献

An Essential Role for Tomato Sulfite Oxidase and Enzymes of the Sulfite Network in Maintaining Leaf Sulfite Homeostasis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Little is known about the homeostasis of sulfite levels, a cytotoxic by-product of plant sulfur turnover. By employing extended dark to induce catabolic pathways, we followed key elements of the sulfite network enzymes that include adenosine-5′-phosphosulfate reductase and the sulfite scavengers sulfite oxidase (SO), sulfite reductase, UDP-sulfoquinovose synthase, and β-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferases. During extended dark, SO was enhanced in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) wild-type leaves, while the other sulfite network components were down-regulated. SO RNA interference plants lacking SO activity accumulated sulfite, resulting in leaf damage and mortality. Exogenous sulfite application induced up-regulation of the sulfite scavenger activities in dark-stressed or unstressed wild-type plants, while expression of the sulfite producer, adenosine-5′-phosphosulfate reductase, was down-regulated. Unstressed or dark-stressed wild-type plants were resistant to sulfite applications, but SO RNA interference plants showed sensitivity and overaccumulation of sulfite. Hence, under extended dark stress, SO activity is necessary to cope with rising endogenous sulfite levels. However, under nonstressed conditions, the sulfite network can control sulfite levels in the absence of SO activity. The novel evidence provided by the synchronous dark-induced turnover of sulfur-containing compounds, augmented by exogenous sulfite applications, underlines the role of SO and other sulfite network components in maintaining sulfite homeostasis, where sulfite appears to act as an orchestrating signal molecule.As a plant macronutrient, sulfur (S) is important for yield production and the quality of crops. In nature, S is mostly available in its fully oxidized anion sulfate form, which is taken up, reduced, and incorporated into Cys via sulfite and sulfide generation in the sulfate assimilation pathway (Saito, 2000). In addition to the presence of S in the amino acids Cys and Met, it is an important component of oligopeptides such as reduced glutathione (GSH), coenzymes, prosthetic groups, vitamins, secondary metabolites, and lipids (Saito, 2000; Leustek, 2002). In the latter case, the chloroplast membrane containing sulfoquinovosyldiacylglycerol (SQDG) is one of the primary S-containing components in higher plants (Shimojima, 2011).Sulfite, a less oxidized form of sulfate, is an intermediate in the assimilation of S and a potentially cytotoxic molecule (Leustek et al., 2000) that, if not rapidly metabolized, can wreak havoc at the cellular (Sanda et al., 2001; Davidian and Kopriva, 2010) and whole-plant (Murray, 1997; Brychkova et al., 2007) levels. Roots obtain sulfate from the soil, and sulfite is generated from sulfate in the leaves by the chloroplast-localized adenosine-5′-phosphosulfate (APS) reductase (APR; Enzyme Commission [EC] 1.8.4.9; Vauclare et al., 2002). Another source of sulfite is atmospheric, originating from microbial, volcanic, or anthropogenic activities and entering the plant via the stomata or through the root system. In mammalian tissue, endogenous sulfite is thought to be formed during the degradation of the S-containing amino acids (Amy, 1988; Heber and Huve, 1998; Hänsch and Mendel, 2005); however, such a pathway has yet to be explored in plants.Known avenues for sulfite usage include sulfite assimilation, incorporation into metabolites, and detoxification, which together make up a potential network for the control of sulfite turnover (Fig. 1). These include ferredoxin-dependent sulfite reduction catalyzed by the chloroplast-localized sulfite reductase (SiR; EC 1.8.7.1), which yields the reduced sulfide for primary sulfate assimilation (Khan et al., 2010). Another pathway for sulfite utilization is its incorporation into sulfolipids, catalyzed by the chloroplast-localized UDP-sulfoquinovose synthase (SQD1; EC 3.13.1.1; Sanda et al., 2001). Sulfite can be reoxidized back to sulfate by the molybdenum cofactor-containing enzyme, sulfite oxidase (SO; EC 1.8.3.1), localized in the peroxisomes (Eilers et al., 2001). Alternatively, the mitochondrion- and cytosol-localized β-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferases (STs; EC 2.8.1.2.), MST1 and MST2, respectively, have been shown to catalyze the synthesis of the less toxic compound thiosulfate in the presence of β-mercaptopyruvate and sulfite (Papenbrock and Schmidt, 2000a; Tsakraklides et al., 2002).Open in a separate windowFigure 1.Schematic representation of sulfite network enzymes in plants. Sulfite is generated from sulfate in two consecutive steps. In the first step, ATP sufurylase catalyzes the adenylation of sulfate to APS, and then sulfite is produced in the chloroplast by the glutathione-dependent APR. In the chloroplast, the generated sulfite can be further reduced to sulfide by the ferredoxin-dependent SiR. The sulfide together with O-acetyl-l-Ser are the substrates for Cys biosynthesis catalyzed by OAS-TL. Alternatively, the chloroplast-localized sulfite can enter the sulfolipid reductive pathway to generate SQDG in two consecutive steps. In the first step, UDP-sulfoquinovase is catalyzed by SQD1, employing sulfite and UDP-Glc as substrates, while in the second step, SQDG is catalyzed by SQDG synthase, employing UDP-sulfoquinovose and diacylglycerols as substrates. Sulfite localized to the cytosol and mitochondria may be detoxified to thiosulfate by the STs or be generated by these enzymes from thiosulfate and cyanide (Nakamura et al., 2000; Papenbrock and Schmidt, 2000a; Tsakraklides et al., 2002). Sulfite can be oxidized to sulfate by the molybdenum cofactor-containing enzyme, peroxisomal SO. Fdox, Oxidized ferredoxin; Fdred, reduced ferredoxin; GSSG, oxidized glutathione; H2O2, hydrogen peroxide; PPi, diphosphate.Since sulfite is cytotoxic (Leustek et al., 2000), it can be expected that its cellular levels are tightly regulated through an interplay between its production and conversion. However, virtually nothing is known about the factors regulating its homeostasis in plants and the interaction of enzymes involved in internal sulfite detoxification. In this work, extended dark stress was employed as a means to induce catabolic pathways (Keskitalo et al., 2005; Brychkova et al., 2007) that stimulate the turnover of S-containing metabolites and result in sulfite flux. We analyzed known components of the sulfite homeostasis network in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) plants and demonstrated the essential role of SO. During dark stress, SO expression was enhanced while the expression of the other known sulfite network components, APRs, SiR, SQD1, and STs, was inhibited. In the absence of the SO activity, toxic sulfite levels accumulated in the dark and was accompanied by increased leaf damage and plant mortality. Direct sulfite application stimulated components of the sulfite network, indicating that sulfite might play an important role as a signal molecule in orchestrating sulfite homeostasis. 相似文献

In plants, K transporter (KT)/high affinity K transporter (HAK)/K uptake permease (KUP) is the largest potassium (K) transporter family; however, few of the members have had their physiological functions characterized in planta. Here, we studied OsHAK5 of the KT/HAK/KUP family in rice (Oryza sativa). We determined its cellular and tissue localization and analyzed its functions in rice using both OsHAK5 knockout mutants and overexpression lines in three genetic backgrounds. A β-glucuronidase reporter driven by the OsHAK5 native promoter indicated OsHAK5 expression in various tissue organs from root to seed, abundantly in root epidermis and stele, the vascular tissues, and mesophyll cells. Net K influx rate in roots and K transport from roots to aerial parts were severely impaired by OsHAK5 knockout but increased by OsHAK5 overexpression in 0.1 and 0.3 mm
K external solution. The contribution of OsHAK5 to K mobilization within the rice plant was confirmed further by the change of K concentration in the xylem sap and K distribution in the transgenic lines when K was removed completely from the external solution. Overexpression of OsHAK5 increased the K-sodium concentration ratio in the shoots and salt stress tolerance (shoot growth), while knockout of OsHAK5 decreased the K-sodium concentration ratio in the shoots, resulting in sensitivity to salt stress. Taken together, these results demonstrate that OsHAK5 plays a major role in K acquisition by roots faced with low external K and in K upward transport from roots to shoots in K-deficient rice plants.Potassium (K) is one of the three most important macronutrients and the most abundant cation in plants. As a major osmoticum in the vacuole, K drives the generation of turgor pressure, enabling cell expansion. In the vascular tissue, K is an important participant in the generation of root pressure (for review, see Wegner, 2014 [including his new hypothesis]). In the phloem, K is critical for the transport of photoassimilates from source to sink (Marschner, 1996; Deeken et al., 2002; Gajdanowicz et al., 2011). In addition, enhancing K absorption and decreasing sodium (Na) accumulation is a major strategy of glycophytes in salt stress tolerance (Maathuis and Amtmann, 1999; Munns and Tester, 2008; Shabala and Cuin, 2008).Plants acquire K through K-permeable proteins at the root surface. Since available K concentration in the soil may vary by 100-fold, plants have developed multiple K uptake systems for adapting to this variability (Epstein et al., 1963; Grabov, 2007; Maathuis, 2009). In a classic K uptake experiment in barley (Hordeum vulgare), root K absorption has been described as a high-affinity and low-affinity biphasic transport process (Epstein et al., 1963). It is generally assumed that the low-affinity transport system (LATS) in the roots mediates K uptake in the millimolar range and that the activity of this system is insensitive to external K concentration (Maathuis and Sanders, 1997; Chérel et al., 2014). In contrast, the high-affinity transport system (HATS) was rapidly up-regulated when the supply of exogenous K was halted (Glass, 1976; Glass and Dunlop, 1978).The membrane transporters for K flux identified in plants are generally classified into three channels and three transporter families based on phylogenetic analysis (Mäser et al., 2001; Véry and Sentenac, 2003; Lebaudy et al., 2007; Alemán et al., 2011). For K uptake, it was predicted that, under most circumstances, K transporters function as HATS, while K-permeable channels mediate LATS (Maathuis and Sanders, 1997). However, a root-expressed K channel in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), Arabidopsis K Transporter1 (AKT1), mediates K absorption over a wide range of external K concentrations (Sentenac et al., 1992; Lagarde et al., 1996; Hirsch et al., 1998; Spalding et al., 1999), while evidence is accumulating that many K transporters, including members of the K transporter (KT)/high affinity K transporter (HAK)/K uptake permease (KUP) family, are low-affinity K transporters (Quintero and Blatt, 1997; Senn et al., 2001), implying that functions of plant K channels and transporters overlap at different K concentration ranges.Out of the three families of K transporters, cation proton antiporter (CPA), high affinity K/Na transporter (HKT), and KT/HAK/KUP, CPA was characterized as a K+(Na+)/H+ antiporter, HKT may cotransport Na and K or transport Na only (Rubio et al., 1995; Uozumi et al., 2000), while KT/HAK/KUP were predicted to be H+-coupled K+ symporters (Mäser et al., 2001; Lebaudy et al., 2007). KT/HAK/KUP were named by different researchers who first identified and cloned them (Quintero and Blatt, 1997; Santa-María et al., 1997). In plants, the KT/HAK/KUP family is the largest K transporter family, including 13 members in Arabidopsis and 27 members in the rice (Oryza sativa) genome (Rubio et al., 2000; Mäser et al., 2001; Bañuelos et al., 2002; Gupta et al., 2008). Sequence alignments show that genes of this family share relatively low homology to each other. The KT/HAK/KUP family was divided into four major clusters (Rubio et al., 2000; Gupta et al., 2008), and in cluster I and II, they were further separated into A and B groups. Genes of cluster I or II likely exist in all plants, cluster III is composed of genes from both Arabidopsis and rice, while cluster IV includes only four rice genes (Grabov, 2007; Gupta et al., 2008).The functions of KT/HAK/KUP were studied mostly in heterologous expression systems. Transporters of cluster I, such as AtHAK5, HvHAK1, OsHAK1, and OsHAK5, are localized in the plasma membrane (Kim et al., 1998; Bañuelos et al., 2002; Gierth et al., 2005) and exhibit high-affinity K uptake in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Santa-María et al., 1997; Fu and Luan, 1998; Rubio et al., 2000) and in Escherichia coli (Horie et al., 2011). Transporters of cluster II, like AtKUP4 (TINY ROOT HAIRS1, TRH1), HvHAK2, OsHAK2, OsHAK7, and OsHAK10, could not complement the K uptake-deficient yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) but were able to mediate K fluxes in a bacterial mutant; they might be tonoplast transporters (Senn et al., 2001; Bañuelos et al., 2002; Rodríguez-Navarro and Rubio, 2006). The function of transporters in clusters III and IV is even less known (Grabov, 2007).Existing data suggest that some KT/HAK/KUP transporters also may respond to salinity stress (Maathuis, 2009). The cluster I transporters of HvHAK1 mediate Na influx (Santa-María et al., 1997), while AtHAK5 expression is inhibited by Na (Rubio et al., 2000; Nieves-Cordones et al., 2010). Expression of OsHAK5 in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) BY2 cells enhanced the salt tolerance of these cells by accumulating more K without affecting their Na content (Horie et al., 2011).There are only scarce reports on the physiological function of KT/HAK/KUP in planta. In Arabidopsis, mutation of AtKUP2 (SHORT HYPOCOTYL3) resulted in a short hypocotyl, small leaves, and a short flowering stem (Elumalai et al., 2002), while a loss-of-function mutation of AtKUP4 (TRH1) resulted in short root hairs and a loss of gravity response in the root (Rigas et al., 2001; Desbrosses et al., 2003; Ahn et al., 2004). AtHAK5 is the only system currently known to mediate K uptake at concentrations below 0.01 mm (Rubio et al., 2010) and provides a cesium uptake pathway (Qi et al., 2008). AtHAK5 and AtAKT1 are the two major physiologically relevant molecular entities mediating K uptake into roots in the range between 0.01 and 0.05 mm (Pyo et al., 2010; Rubio et al., 2010). AtAKT1 may contribute to K uptake within the K concentrations that belong to the high-affinity system described by Epstein et al. (1963).Among all 27 members of the KT/HAK/KUP family in rice, OsHAK1, OsHAK5, OsHAK19, and OsHAK20 were grouped in cluster IB (Gupta et al., 2008). These four rice HAK members share 50.9% to 53.4% amino acid identity with AtHAK5. OsHAK1 was expressed in the whole plant, with maximum expression in roots, and was up-regulated by K deficiency; it mediated high-affinity K uptake in yeast (Bañuelos et al., 2002). In this study, we examined the tissue-specific localization and the physiological functions of OsHAK5 in response to variation in K supply and to salt stress in rice. By comparing K uptake and translocation in OsHAK5 knockout (KO) mutants and in OsHAK5-overexpressing lines with those in their respective wild-type lines supplied with different K concentrations, we found that OsHAK5 not only mediates high-affinity K acquisition but also participates in root-to-shoot K transport as well as in K-regulated salt tolerance. 相似文献

We have established an efficient transient expression system with several vacuolar reporters to study the roles of endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT)-III subunits in regulating the formation of intraluminal vesicles of prevacuolar compartments (PVCs)/multivesicular bodies (MVBs) in plant cells. By measuring the distributions of reporters on/within the membrane of PVC/MVB or tonoplast, we have identified dominant negative mutants of ESCRT-III subunits that affect membrane protein degradation from both secretory and endocytic pathways. In addition, induced expression of these mutants resulted in reduction in luminal vesicles of PVC/MVB, along with increased detection of membrane-attaching vesicles inside the PVC/MVB. Transgenic Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants with induced expression of ESCRT-III dominant negative mutants also displayed severe cotyledon developmental defects with reduced cell size, loss of the central vacuole, and abnormal chloroplast development in mesophyll cells, pointing out an essential role of the ESCRT-III complex in postembryonic development in plants. Finally, membrane dissociation of ESCRT-III components is important for their biological functions and is regulated by direct interaction among Vacuolar Protein Sorting-Associated Protein20-1 (VPS20.1), Sucrose Nonfermenting7-1, VPS2.1, and the adenosine triphosphatase VPS4/SUPPRESSOR OF K+ TRANSPORT GROWTH DEFECT1.Endomembrane trafficking in plant cells is complicated such that secretory, endocytic, and recycling pathways are usually integrated with each other at the post-Golgi compartments, among which, the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and prevacuolar compartment (PVC)/multivesicular body (MVB) are best studied (Tse et al., 2004; Lam et al., 2007a, 2007b; Müller et al., 2007; Foresti and Denecke, 2008; Hwang, 2008; Otegui and Spitzer, 2008; Robinson et al., 2008; Richter et al., 2009; Ding et al., 2012; Gao et al., 2014). Following the endocytic trafficking of a lipophilic dye, FM4-64, the TGN and PVC/MVB are sequentially labeled and thus are defined as the early and late endosome, respectively, in plant cells (Lam et al., 2007a; Chow et al., 2008). While the TGN is a tubular vesicular-like structure that may include several different microdomains and fit its biological function as a sorting station (Chow et al., 2008; Kang et al., 2011), the PVC/MVB is 200 to 500 nm in size with multiple luminal vesicles of approximately 40 nm (Tse et al., 2004). Membrane cargoes destined for degradation are sequestered into these tiny luminal vesicles and delivered to the lumen of the lytic vacuole (LV) via direct fusion between the PVC/MVB and the LV (Spitzer et al., 2009; Viotti et al., 2010; Cai et al., 2012). Therefore, the PVC/MVB functions between the TGN and LV as an intermediate organelle and decides the fate of membrane cargoes in the LV.In yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), carboxypeptidase S (CPS) is synthesized as a type II integral membrane protein and sorted from the Golgi to the lumen of the vacuole (Spormann et al., 1992). Genetic analyses on the trafficking of CPS have led to the identification of approximately 17 class E genes (Piper et al., 1995; Babst et al., 1997, 2002a, 2002b; Odorizzi et al., 1998; Katzmann et al., 2001) that constitute the core endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery. The evolutionarily conserved ESCRT complex consists of several functionally different subcomplexes, ESCRT-0, ESCRT-I, ESCRT-II, and ESCRT-III and the ESCRT-III-associated/Vacuolar Protein Sorting4 (VPS4) complex. Together, they form a complex protein-protein interaction network that coordinates sorting of cargoes and inward budding of the membrane on the MVB (Hurley and Hanson, 2010; Henne et al., 2011). Cargo proteins carrying ubiquitin signals are thought to be passed from one ESCRT subcomplex to the next, starting with their recognition by ESCRT-0 (Bilodeau et al., 2002, 2003; Hislop and von Zastrow, 2011; Le Bras et al., 2011; Shields and Piper, 2011; Urbé, 2011). ESCRT-0 recruits the ESCRT-I complex, a heterotetramer of VPS23, VPS28, VPS37, and MVB12, from the cytosol to the endosomal membrane (Katzmann et al., 2001, 2003). The C terminus of VPS28 interacts with the N terminus of VPS36, a member of the ESCRT-II complex (Kostelansky et al., 2006; Teo et al., 2006). Then, cargoes passed from ESCRT-I and ESCRT-II are concentrated in certain membrane domains of the endosome by ESCRT-III, which includes four coiled-coil proteins and is sufficient to induce the membrane invagination (Babst et al., 2002b; Saksena et al., 2009; Wollert et al., 2009). Finally, the ESCRT components are disassociated from the membrane by the adenosine triphosphatase (ATPase) associated with diverse cellular activities (AAA) VPS4/SUPPRESSOR OF K+ TRANSPORT GROWTH DEFECT1 (SKD1) before releasing the internal vesicles (Babst et al., 1997, 1998).Putative homologs of ESCRT-I–ESCRT-III and ESCRT-III-associated components have been identified in plants, except for ESCRT-0, which is only present in Opisthokonta (Winter and Hauser, 2006; Leung et al., 2008; Schellmann and Pimpl, 2009). To date, only a few plant ESCRT components have been studied in detail. The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) AAA ATPase SKD1 localized to the PVC/MVB and showed ATPase activity that was regulated by Lysosomal Trafficking Regulator-Interacting Protein5, a plant homolog of Vps Twenty Associated1 Protein (Haas et al., 2007). Expression of the dominant negative form of SKD1 caused an increase in the size of the MVB and a reduction in the number of internal vesicles (Haas et al., 2007). This protein also contributes to the maintenance of the central vacuole and might be associated with cell cycle regulation, as leaf trichomes expressing its dominant negative mutant form lost the central vacuole and frequently contained multiple nuclei (Shahriari et al., 2010). Double null mutants of CHARGED MULTIVESICULAR BODY PROTEIN, chmp1achmp1b, displayed severe growth defects and were seedling lethal. This may be due to the mislocalization of plasma membrane (PM) proteins, including those involved in auxin transport such as PINFORMED1, PINFORMED2, and AUXIN-RESISTANT1, from the vacuolar degradation pathway to the tonoplast of the LV (Spitzer et al., 2009).Plant ESCRT components usually contain several homologs, with the possibility of functional redundancy. Single mutants of individual ESCRT components may not result in an obvious phenotype, whereas knockout of all homologs of an ESCRT component by generating double or triple mutants may be lethal to the plant. As a first step to carry out systematic analysis on each ESCRT complex in plant cells, here, we established an efficient analysis system to monitor the localization changes of four vacuolar reporters that accumulate either in the lumen (LRR84A-GFP, EMP12-GFP, and aleurain-GFP) or on the tonoplast (GFP-VIT1) of the LV and identified several ESCRT-III dominant negative mutants. We reported that ESCRT-III subunits were involved in the release of PVC/MVB’s internal vesicles from the limiting membrane and were required for membrane protein degradation from secretory and endocytic pathways. In addition, transgenic Arabidopsis plants with induced expression of ESCRT-III dominant negative mutants showed severe cotyledon developmental defects. We also showed that membrane dissociation of ESCRT-III subunits was regulated by direct interaction with SKD1. 相似文献

Fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH) hydrolyzes fumarylacetoacetate to fumarate and acetoacetate, the final step in the tyrosine (Tyr) degradation pathway that is essential to animals. Deficiency of FAH in animals results in an inborn lethal disorder. However, the role for the Tyr degradation pathway in plants remains to be elucidated. In this study, we isolated an Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) short-day sensitive cell death1 (sscd1) mutant that displays a spontaneous cell death phenotype under short-day conditions. The SSCD1 gene was cloned via a map-based cloning approach and found to encode an Arabidopsis putative FAH. The spontaneous cell death phenotype of the sscd1 mutant was completely eliminated by further knockout of the gene encoding the putative homogentisate dioxygenase, which catalyzes homogentisate into maleylacetoacetate (the antepenultimate step) in the Tyr degradation pathway. Furthermore, treatment of Arabidopsis wild-type seedlings with succinylacetone, an abnormal metabolite caused by loss of FAH in the Tyr degradation pathway, mimicked the sscd1 cell death phenotype. These results demonstrate that disruption of FAH leads to cell death in Arabidopsis and suggest that the Tyr degradation pathway is essential for plant survival under short-day conditions.Programmed cell death (PCD) has been defined as a sequence of genetically regulated events that lead to the elimination of specific cells, tissues, or whole organs (Lockshin and Zakeri, 2004). In plants, PCD is essential for developmental processes and defense responses (Dangl et al., 1996; Greenberg, 1996; Durrant et al., 2007). One well-characterized example of plant PCD is the hypersensitive response occurring during incompatible plant-pathogen interactions (Lam, 2004), which results in cell death to form visible lesions at the site of infection by an avirulent pathogen and consequently limits the pathogen spread (Morel and Dangl, 1997).To date, a large number of mutants that display spontaneous cell death lesions have been identified in barley (Hordeum vulgare), maize (Zea mays), rice (Oryza sativa), and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; Marchetti et al., 1983; Wolter et al., 1993; Dietrich et al., 1994; Gray et al., 1997). Because lesions form in the absence of pathogen infection, these mutants have been collectively termed as lesion-mimic mutants. Many genes with regulatory roles in PCD and defense responses, including LESION SIMULATING DISEASE1, ACCELERATED CELL DEATH11, and VASCULAR ASSOCIATED DEATH1, have been cloned and characterized (Dietrich et al., 1997; Brodersen et al., 2002; Lorrain et al., 2004).The appearance of spontaneous cell death lesions in some lesion-mimic mutants is dependent on photoperiod. For example, the Arabidopsis mutant lesion simulating disease1 and myoinositol-1-phosphate synthase1 show lesions under long days (LD; Dietrich et al., 1994; Meng et al., 2009), whereas the lesion simulating disease2, lesion initiation1, enhancing RPW8-mediated HR-like cell death1, and lag one homolog1 display lesions under short days (SD; Dietrich et al., 1994; Ishikawa et al., 2003; Wang et al., 2008; Ternes et al., 2011).Blockage of some metabolic pathways in plants may cause cell death and result in lesion formation. For example, the lesion-mimic phenotypes in the Arabidopsis mutants lesion initiation2 and accelerated cell death2 and the maize mutant lesion mimic22 result from an impairment of porphyrin metabolism (Hu et al., 1998; Ishikawa et al., 2001; Mach et al., 2001). Deficiency in fatty acid, sphingolipid, and myoinositol metabolism also causes cell death in Arabidopsis (Mou et al., 2000; Liang et al., 2003; Wang et al., 2008; Meng et al., 2009; Donahue et al., 2010; Berkey et al., 2012).Tyr degradation is an essential five-step pathway in animals (Lindblad et al., 1977). First, Tyr aminotransferase catalyzes the conversion of Tyr into 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate, which is further transformed into homogentisate by 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase. Through the sequential action of homogentisate dioxygenase (HGO), maleylacetoacetate isomerase (MAAI), and fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase (FAH), homogentisate is catalyzed to generate fumarate and acetoacetate (Lindblad et al., 1977). Blockage of this pathway in animals results in metabolic disorder diseases (Lindblad et al., 1977; Ruppert et al., 1992; Grompe et al., 1993). For example, human FAH deficiency causes hereditary tyrosinemia type I (HT1), an inborn lethal disease (St-Louis and Tanguay, 1997). Although the homologous genes putatively encoding these enzymes exist in plants (Dixon et al., 2000; Lopukhina et al., 2001; Dixon and Edwards, 2006), it is unclear whether this pathway is essential for plant growth and development.In this study, we report the isolation and characterization of a recessive short-day sensitive cell death1 (sscd1) mutant in Arabidopsis. Map-based cloning of the corresponding gene revealed that SSCD1 encodes the Arabidopsis putative FAH. Further knockout of the gene encoding the Arabidopsis putative HGO completely eliminated the spontaneous cell death phenotype in the sscd1 mutant. Furthermore, we found that treatment of Arabidopsis wild-type seedlings with succinylacetone, an abnormal metabolite caused by loss of FAH in the Tyr degradation pathway (Lindblad et al., 1977), is able to mimic the sscd1 cell death phenotype. These results demonstrate that disruption of FAH leads to cell death in Arabidopsis and suggest that the Tyr degradation pathway is essential for plant survival under SD. 相似文献

In plant cells, secretory and endocytic routes intersect at the trans-Golgi network (TGN)/early endosome (EE), where cargos are further sorted correctly and in a timely manner. Cargo sorting is essential for plant survival and therefore necessitates complex molecular machinery. Adaptor proteins (APs) play key roles in this process by recruiting coat proteins and selecting cargos for different vesicle carriers. The µ1 subunit of AP-1 in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) was recently identified at the TGN/EE and shown to be essential for cytokinesis. However, little was known about other cellular activities affected by mutations in AP-1 or the developmental consequences of such mutations. We report here that HAPLESS13 (HAP13), the Arabidopsis µ1 adaptin, is essential for protein sorting at the TGN/EE. Functional loss of HAP13 displayed pleiotropic developmental defects, some of which were suggestive of disrupted auxin signaling. Consistent with this, the asymmetric localization of PIN-FORMED2 (PIN2), an auxin transporter, was compromised in the mutant. In addition, cell morphogenesis was disrupted. We further demonstrate that HAP13 is critical for brefeldin A-sensitive but wortmannin-insensitive post-Golgi trafficking. Our results show that HAP13 is a key link in the sophisticated trafficking network in plant cells.Plant cells contain sophisticated endomembrane compartments, including the endoplasmic reticulum, the Golgi, the trans-Golgi network (TGN)/early endosome (EE), the prevacuolar compartments/multivesicular bodies (PVC/MVB), various types of vesicles, and the plasma membrane (PM; Ebine and Ueda, 2009; Richter et al., 2009). Intracellular protein sorting between the various locations in the endomembrane system occurs in both secretory and endocytic routes (Richter et al., 2009; De Marcos Lousa et al., 2012). Vesicles in the secretory route start at the endoplasmic reticulum, passing through the Golgi before reaching the TGN/EE, while vesicles in the endocytic route start from the PM before reaching the TGN/EE (Dhonukshe et al., 2007; Viotti et al., 2010). The TGN/EE in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) is an independent and highly dynamic organelle transiently associated with the Golgi (Dettmer et al., 2006; Lam et al., 2007; Viotti et al., 2010), distinct from the animal TGN. Once reaching the TGN/EE, proteins delivered by their vesicle carriers are subject to further sorting, being incorporated either into vesicles that pass through the PVC/MVB before reaching the vacuole for degradation or into vesicles that enter the secretory pathway for delivery to the PM (Ebine and Ueda, 2009; Richter et al., 2009). Therefore, the TGN/EE is a critical sorting compartment that lies at the intersection of the secretory and endocytic routes.Fine-tuned control of intracellular protein sorting at the TGN/EE is essential for plant development (Geldner et al., 2003; Dhonukshe et al., 2007, 2008; Richter et al., 2007; Kitakura et al., 2011; Wang et al., 2013). An auxin gradient is crucial for pattern formation in plants, whose dynamic maintenance requires the polar localization of auxin efflux carrier PINs through endocytic recycling (Geldner et al., 2003; Blilou et al., 2005; Paciorek et al., 2005; Abas et al., 2006; Jaillais et al., 2006; Dhonukshe et al., 2007; Kleine-Vehn et al., 2008). Receptor-like kinases (RLKs) have also been recognized as major cargos undergoing endocytic trafficking, which are either recycled back to the PM or sent for vacuolar degradation (Geldner and Robatzek, 2008; Irani and Russinova, 2009). RLKs are involved in most if not all developmental processes of plants (De Smet et al., 2009).Intracellular protein sorting relies on sorting signals within cargo proteins and on the molecular machinery that recognizes sorting signals (Boehm and Bonifacino, 2001; Robinson, 2004; Dhonukshe et al., 2007). Adaptor proteins (AP) play a key role (Boehm and Bonifacino, 2001; Robinson, 2004) in the recognition of sorting signals. APs are heterotetrameric protein complexes composed of two large subunits (β and γ/α/δ/ε), a small subunit (σ), and a medium subunit (µ) that is crucial for cargo selection (Boehm and Bonifacino, 2001). APs associate with the cytoplasmic side of secretory and endocytic vesicles, recruiting coat proteins and recognizing sorting signals within cargo proteins for their incorporation into vesicle carriers (Boehm and Bonifacino, 2001). Five APs have been identified so far, classified by their components, subcellular localization, and function (Boehm and Bonifacino, 2001; Robinson, 2004; Hirst et al., 2011). Of the five APs, AP-1 associates with the TGN or recycling endosomes (RE) in yeast and mammals (Huang et al., 2001; Robinson, 2004), mediating the sorting of cargo proteins to compartments of the endosomal-lysosomal system or to the basolateral PM of polarized epithelial cells (Gonzalez and Rodriguez-Boulan, 2009). Knockouts of AP-1 components in multicellular organisms resulted in embryonic lethality (Boehm and Bonifacino, 2001; Robinson, 2004).We show here that the recently identified Arabidopsis µ1 adaptin AP1M2 (Park et al., 2013; Teh et al., 2013) is a key component in the cellular machinery mediating intracellular protein sorting at the TGN/EE. AP1M2 was previously named HAPLESS13 (HAP13), whose mutant allele hap13 showed male gametophytic lethality (Johnson et al., 2004). In recent quests for AP-1 in plants, HAP13/AP1M2 was confirmed as the Arabidopsis µ1 adaptin based on its interaction with other components of the AP-1 complex as well as its localization at the TGN (Park et al., 2013; Teh et al., 2013). A novel mutant allele of HAP13/AP1M2, ap1m2-1, was found to be defective in the intracellular distribution of KNOLLE, leading to defective cytokinesis (Park et al., 2013; Teh et al., 2013). However, it was not clear whether HAP13/AP1M2 mediated other cellular activities and their developmental consequences. Using the same mutant allele, we found that functional loss of HAP13 (hap13-1/ap1m2-1) resulted in a full spectrum of growth defects, suggestive of compromised auxin signaling and of defective RLK signaling. Cell morphogenesis was also disturbed in hap13-1. Importantly, hap13-1 was insensitive to brefeldin A (BFA) washout, indicative of defects in guanine nucleotide exchange factors for ADP-ribosylation factor (ArfGEF)-mediated post-Golgi trafficking. Furthermore, HAP13/AP1M2 showed evolutionarily conserved function during vacuolar fusion, providing additional support to its identity as a µ1 adaptin. These results demonstrate the importance of the Arabidopsis µ1 adaptin for intracellular protein sorting centered on the TGN/EE. 相似文献
