The DNA mismatch repair (MMR) system is a major DNA repair system that corrects DNA replication errors. In eukaryotes, the MMR system functions via mechanisms both dependent on and independent of exonuclease 1 (EXO1), an enzyme that has multiple roles in DNA metabolism. Although the mechanism of EXO1-dependent MMR is well understood, less is known about EXO1-independent MMR. Here, we provide genetic and biochemical evidence that the DNA2 nuclease/helicase has a role in EXO1-independent MMR. Biochemical reactions reconstituted with purified human proteins demonstrated that the nuclease activity of DNA2 promotes an EXO1-independent MMR reaction via a mismatch excision-independent mechanism that involves DNA polymerase δ. We show that DNA polymerase ε is not able to replace DNA polymerase δ in the DNA2-promoted MMR reaction. Unlike its nuclease activity, the helicase activity of DNA2 is dispensable for the ability of the protein to enhance the MMR reaction. Further examination established that DNA2 acts in the EXO1-independent MMR reaction by increasing the strand-displacement activity of DNA polymerase δ. These data reveal a mechanism for EXO1-independent mismatch repair.The mismatch repair (MMR) system has been conserved from bacteria to humans (1, 2). It promotes genome stability by suppressing spontaneous and DNA damage-induced mutations (1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11). The key function of the MMR system is the correction of DNA replication errors that escape the proofreading activities of replicative DNA polymerases (1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 12). In addition, the MMR system removes mismatches formed during strand exchange in homologous recombination, suppresses homeologous recombination, initiates apoptosis in response to irreparable DNA damage caused by several anticancer drugs, and contributes to instability of triplet repeats and alternative DNA structures (1, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18). The principal components of the eukaryotic MMR system are MutSα (MSH2-MSH6 heterodimer), MutLα (MLH1-PMS2 heterodimer in humans and Mlh1-Pms1 heterodimer in yeast), MutSβ (MSH2-MSH3 heterodimer), proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), replication factor C (RFC), exonuclease 1 (EXO1), RPA, and DNA polymerase δ (Pol δ). Loss-of-function mutations in the MSH2, MLH1, MSH6, and PMS2 genes of the human MMR system cause Lynch and Turcot syndromes, and hypermethylation of the MLH1 promoter is responsible for ∼15% of sporadic cancers in several organs (19, 20). MMR deficiency leads to cancer initiation and progression via a multistage process that involves the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes and action of oncogenes (21).MMR occurs behind the replication fork (22, 23) and is a major determinant of the replication fidelity (24). The correction of DNA replication errors by the MMR system increases the replication fidelity by ∼100 fold (25). Strand breaks in leading and lagging strands as well as ribonucleotides in leading strands serve as signals that direct the eukaryotic MMR system to remove DNA replication errors (26, 27, 28, 29, 30). MMR is more efficient on the lagging than the leading strand (31). The substrates for MMR are all six base–base mismatches and 1 to 13-nt insertion/deletion loops (25, 32, 33, 34). Eukaryotic MMR commences with recognition of the mismatch by MutSα or MutSβ (32, 34, 35, 36). MutSα is the primary mismatch-recognition factor that recognizes both base–base mismatches and small insertion/deletion loops whereas MutSβ recognizes small insertion/deletion loops (32, 34, 35, 36, 37). After recognizing the mismatch, MutSα or MutSβ cooperates with RFC-loaded PCNA to activate MutLα endonuclease (38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43). The activated MutLα endonuclease incises the discontinuous daughter strand 5′ and 3′ to the mismatch. A 5'' strand break formed by MutLα endonuclease is utilized by EXO1 to enter the DNA and excise a discontinuous strand portion encompassing the mismatch in a 5''→3′ excision reaction stimulated by MutSα/MutSβ (38, 44, 45). The generated gap is filled in by the Pol δ holoenzyme, and the nick is ligated by a DNA ligase (44, 46, 47). DNA polymerase ε (Pol ε) can substitute for Pol δ in the EXO1-dependent MMR reaction, but its activity in this reaction is much lower than that of Pol δ (48). Although MutLα endonuclease is essential for MMR in vivo, 5′ nick-dependent MMR reactions reconstituted in the presence of EXO1 are MutLα-independent (44, 47, 49).EXO1 deficiency in humans does not seem to cause significant cancer predisposition (19). Nevertheless, it is known that Exo1-/- mice are susceptible to the development of lymphomas (50). Genetic studies in yeast and mice demonstrated that EXO1 inactivation causes only a modest defect in MMR (50, 51, 52, 53). In agreement with these genetic studies, a defined human EXO1-independent MMR reaction that depends on the strand-displacement DNA synthesis activity of Pol δ holoenzyme to remove the mismatch was reconstituted (54). Furthermore, an EXO1-independent MMR reaction that occurred in a mammalian cell extract system without the formation of a gapped excision intermediate was observed (54). Together, these findings implicated the strand-displacement activity of Pol δ holoenzyme in EXO1-independent MMR.In this study, we investigated DNA2 in the context of MMR. DNA2 is an essential multifunctional protein that has nuclease, ATPase, and 5''→3′ helicase activities (55, 56, 57). Previous research ascertained that DNA2 removes long flaps during Okazaki fragment maturation (58, 59, 60), participates in the resection step of double-strand break repair (61, 62, 63), initiates the replication checkpoint (64), and suppresses the expansions of GAA repeats (65). We have found in vivo and in vitro evidence that DNA2 promotes EXO1-independent MMR. Our data have indicated that the nuclease activity of DNA2 enhances the strand-displacement activity of Pol δ holoenzyme in an EXO1-independent MMR reaction. 相似文献

In rice (Oryza sativa) roots, lysigenous aerenchyma, which is created by programmed cell death and lysis of cortical cells, is constitutively formed under aerobic conditions, and its formation is further induced under oxygen-deficient conditions. Ethylene is involved in the induction of aerenchyma formation. reduced culm number1 (rcn1) is a rice mutant in which the gene encoding the ATP-binding cassette transporter RCN1/OsABCG5 is defective. Here, we report that the induction of aerenchyma formation was reduced in roots of rcn1 grown in stagnant deoxygenated nutrient solution (i.e. under stagnant conditions, which mimic oxygen-deficient conditions in waterlogged soils). 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase (ACS) is a key enzyme in ethylene biosynthesis. Stagnant conditions hardly induced the expression of ACS1 in rcn1 roots, resulting in low ethylene production in the roots. Accumulation of saturated very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) of 24, 26, and 28 carbons was reduced in rcn1 roots. Exogenously supplied VLCFA (26 carbons) increased the expression level of ACS1 and induced aerenchyma formation in rcn1 roots. Moreover, in rice lines in which the gene encoding a fatty acid elongase, CUT1-LIKE (CUT1L; a homolog of the gene encoding Arabidopsis CUT1, which is required for cuticular wax production), was silenced, both ACS1 expression and aerenchyma formation were reduced. Interestingly, the expression of ACS1, CUT1L, and RCN1/OsABCG5 was induced predominantly in the outer part of roots under stagnant conditions. These results suggest that, in rice under oxygen-deficient conditions, VLCFAs increase ethylene production by promoting 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid biosynthesis in the outer part of roots, which, in turn, induces aerenchyma formation in the root cortex.Aerenchyma formation is a morphological adaptation of plants to complete submergence and waterlogging of the soil, and facilitates internal gas diffusion (Armstrong, 1979; Jackson and Armstrong, 1999; Colmer, 2003; Voesenek et al., 2006; Bailey-Serres and Voesenek, 2008; Licausi and Perata, 2009; Sauter, 2013; Voesenek and Bailey-Serres, 2015). To adapt to waterlogging in soil, rice (Oryza sativa) develops lysigenous aerenchyma in shoots (Matsukura et al., 2000; Colmer and Pedersen, 2008; Steffens et al., 2011) and roots (Jackson et al., 1985b; Justin and Armstrong, 1991; Kawai et al., 1998), which is formed by programmed cell death and subsequent lysis of some cortical cells (Jackson and Armstrong, 1999; Evans, 2004; Yamauchi et al., 2013). In rice roots, lysigenous aerenchyma is constitutively formed under aerobic conditions (Jackson et al., 1985b), and its formation is further induced under oxygen-deficient conditions (Colmer et al., 2006; Shiono et al., 2011). The former and latter are designated constitutive and inducible lysigenous aerenchyma formation, respectively (Colmer and Voesenek, 2009). The gaseous plant hormone ethylene regulates adaptive growth responses of plants to submergence (Voesenek and Blom, 1989; Voesenek et al., 1993; Visser et al., 1996a,b; Lorbiecke and Sauter, 1999; Hattori et al., 2009; Steffens and Sauter, 2009; van Veen et al., 2013). Ethylene also induces lysigenous aerenchyma formation in roots of some gramineous plants (Drew et al., 2000; Shiono et al., 2008). The treatment of roots with ethylene or its precursor (1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid [ACC]) stimulates aerenchyma formation in rice (Justin and Armstrong, 1991; Colmer et al., 2006; Yukiyoshi and Karahara, 2014), maize (Zea mays; Drew et al., 1981; Jackson et al., 1985a; Takahashi et al., 2015), and wheat (Triticum aestivum; Yamauchi et al., 2014a,b). Moreover, treatment of roots with inhibitors of ethylene action or ethylene biosynthesis effectively blocks aerenchyma formation under hypoxic conditions in maize (Drew et al., 1981; Konings, 1982; Jackson et al., 1985a; Rajhi et al., 2011).Ethylene biosynthesis is accomplished by two main successive enzymatic reactions: conversion of S-adenosyl-Met to ACC by 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase (ACS), and conversion of ACC to ethylene by 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase (ACO; Yang and Hoffman, 1984). The activities of both enzymes are enhanced during aerenchyma formation under hypoxic conditions in maize root (He et al., 1996). Since the ACC content in roots of maize is increased by oxygen deficiency and is strongly correlated with ethylene production (Atwell et al., 1988), ACC biosynthesis is essential for ethylene production during aerenchyma formation in roots. In fact, exogenously supplied ACC induced ethylene production in roots of maize (Drew et al., 1979; Konings, 1982; Atwell et al., 1988) and wheat (Yamauchi et al., 2014b), even under aerobic conditions. Ethylene production in plants is inversely related to oxygen concentration (Yang and Hoffman, 1984). Under anoxic conditions, the oxidation of ACC to ethylene by ACO, which requires oxygen, is almost completely repressed (Yip et al., 1988; Tonutti and Ramina, 1991). Indeed, anoxic conditions stimulate neither ethylene production nor aerenchyma formation in maize adventitious roots (Drew et al., 1979). Therefore, it is unlikely that the root tissues forming inducible aerenchyma are anoxic, and that the ACO-mediated step is repressed. Moreover, aerenchyma is constitutively formed in rice roots even under aerobic conditions (Jackson et al., 1985b), and thus, after the onset of waterlogging, oxygen can be immediately supplied to the apical regions of roots through the constitutively formed aerenchyma.Very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs; ≥20 carbons) are major constituents of sphingolipids, cuticular waxes, and suberin in plants (Franke and Schreiber, 2007; Kunst and Samuels, 2009). In addition to their structural functions, VLCFAs directly or indirectly participate in several physiological processes (Zheng et al., 2005; Reina-Pinto et al., 2009; Roudier et al., 2010; Ito et al., 2011; Nobusawa et al., 2013; Tsuda et al., 2013), including the regulation of ethylene biosynthesis (Qin et al., 2007). During fiber cell elongation in cotton ovules, ethylene biosynthesis is enhanced by treatment with saturated VLCFAs, especially 24-carbon fatty acids, and is suppressed by an inhibitor of VLCFA biosynthesis (Qin et al., 2007). The first rate-limiting step in VLCFA biosynthesis is condensation of acyl-CoA with malonyl-CoA by β-ketoacyl-CoA synthase (KCS; Joubès et al., 2008). KCS enzymes are thought to determine the substrate and tissue specificities of fatty acid elongation (Joubès et al., 2008). The Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) genome has 21 KCS genes (Joubès et al., 2008). In the Arabidopsis cut1 mutant, which has a defect in the gene encoding CUT1 that is required for cuticular wax production (i.e. one of the KCS genes), the expression of AtACO genes and growth of root cells were reduced when compared with the wild type (Qin et al., 2007). Furthermore, expression of the AtACO genes was rescued by exogenously supplied saturated VLCFAs (Qin et al., 2007). These observations imply that VLCFAs or their derivatives work as regulatory factors for gene expression during some physiological processes in plants.reduced culm number1 (rcn1) was first identified as a rice mutant with a low tillering rate in a paddy field (Takamure and Kinoshita, 1985; Yasuno et al., 2007). The rcn1 (rcn1-2) mutant has a single nucleotide substitution in the gene encoding a member of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter subfamily G, RCN1/OsABCG5, causing an Ala-684Pro substitution (Yasuno et al., 2009). The mutation results in several mutant phenotypes, although the substrates of RCN1/OsABCG5 have not been determined (Ureshi et al., 2012; Funabiki et al., 2013; Matsuda et al., 2014). We previously found that the rcn1 mutant has abnormal root morphology, such as shorter root length and brownish appearance of roots, under stagnant (deoxygenated) conditions (which mimics oxygen-deficient conditions in waterlogged soils). We also found that the rcn1 mutant accumulates less of the major suberin monomers originating from VLCFAs in the outer part of adventitious roots, and this results in a reduction of a functional apoplastic barrier in the root hypodermis (Shiono et al., 2014a).The objective of this study was to elucidate the molecular basis of inducible aerenchyma formation. To this end, we examined lysigenous aerenchyma formation and ACC, ethylene, and VLCFA accumulation and their biosyntheses in rcn1 roots. Based on the results of these studies, we propose that VLCFAs are involved in inducible aerenchyma formation through the enhancement of ethylene biosynthesis in rice roots. 相似文献

Organelle movement and positioning play important roles in fundamental cellular activities and adaptive responses to environmental stress in plants. To optimize photosynthetic light utilization, chloroplasts move toward weak blue light (the accumulation response) and escape from strong blue light (the avoidance response). Nuclei also move in response to strong blue light by utilizing the light-induced movement of attached plastids in leaf cells. Blue light receptor phototropins and several factors for chloroplast photorelocation movement have been identified through molecular genetic analysis of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). PLASTID MOVEMENT IMPAIRED1 (PMI1) is a plant-specific C2-domain protein that is required for efficient chloroplast photorelocation movement. There are two PLASTID MOVEMENT IMPAIRED1-RELATED (PMIR) genes, PMIR1 and PMIR2, in the Arabidopsis genome. However, the mechanism in which PMI1 regulates chloroplast and nuclear photorelocation movements and the involvement of PMIR1 and PMIR2 in these organelle movements remained unknown. Here, we analyzed chloroplast and nuclear photorelocation movements in mutant lines of PMI1, PMIR1, and PMIR2. In mesophyll cells, the pmi1 single mutant showed severe defects in both chloroplast and nuclear photorelocation movements resulting from the impaired regulation of chloroplast-actin filaments. In pavement cells, pmi1 mutant plants were partially defective in both plastid and nuclear photorelocation movements, but pmi1pmir1 and pmi1pmir1pmir2 mutant lines lacked the blue light-induced movement responses of plastids and nuclei completely. These results indicated that PMI1 is essential for chloroplast and nuclear photorelocation movements in mesophyll cells and that both PMI1 and PMIR1 are indispensable for photorelocation movements of plastids and thus, nuclei in pavement cells.In plants, organelles move within the cell and become appropriately positioned to accomplish their functions and adapt to the environment (for review, see Wada and Suetsugu, 2004). Light-induced chloroplast movement (chloroplast photorelocation movement) is one of the best characterized organelle movements in plants (Suetsugu and Wada, 2012). Under weak light conditions, chloroplasts move toward light to capture light efficiently (the accumulation response; Zurzycki, 1955). Under strong light conditions, chloroplasts escape from light to avoid photodamage (the avoidance response; Kasahara et al., 2002; Sztatelman et al., 2010; Davis and Hangarter, 2012; Cazzaniga et al., 2013). In most green plant species, these responses are induced primarily by the blue light receptor phototropin (phot) in response to a range of wavelengths from UVA to blue light (approximately 320–500 nm; for review, see Suetsugu and Wada, 2012; Wada and Suetsugu, 2013; Kong and Wada, 2014). Phot-mediated chloroplast movement has been shown in land plants, such as Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; Jarillo et al., 2001; Kagawa et al., 2001; Sakai et al., 2001), the fern Adiantum capillus-veneris (Kagawa et al., 2004), the moss Physcomitrella patens (Kasahara et al., 2004), and the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha (Komatsu et al., 2014). Two phots in Arabidopsis, phot1 and phot2, redundantly mediate the accumulation response (Sakai et al., 2001), whereas phot2 primarily regulates the avoidance response (Jarillo et al., 2001; Kagawa et al., 2001; Luesse et al., 2010). M. polymorpha has only one phot that mediates both the accumulation and avoidance responses (Komatsu et al., 2014), although two or more phots mediate chloroplast photorelocation movement in A. capillus-veneris (Kagawa et al., 2004) and P. patens (Kasahara et al., 2004). Thus, duplication and functional diversification of PHOT genes have occurred during land plant evolution, and plants have gained a sophisticated light sensing system for chloroplast photorelocation movement.In general, movements of plant organelles, including chloroplasts, are dependent on actin filaments (for review, see Wada and Suetsugu, 2004). Most organelles common in eukaryotes, such as mitochondria, peroxisomes, and Golgi bodies, use the myosin motor for their movements, but there is no clear evidence that chloroplast movement is myosin dependent (for review, see Suetsugu et al., 2010a). Land plants have innovated a novel actin-based motility system that is specialized for chloroplast movement as well as a photoreceptor system (for review, see Suetsugu et al., 2010a; Wada and Suetsugu, 2013; Kong and Wada, 2014). Chloroplast-actin (cp-actin) filaments, which were first found in Arabidopsis, are short actin filaments specifically localized around the chloroplast periphery at the interface between the chloroplast and the plasma membrane (Kadota et al., 2009). Strong blue light induces the rapid disappearance of cp-actin filaments and then, their subsequent reappearance preferentially at the front region of the moving chloroplasts. This asymmetric distribution of cp-actin filaments is essential for directional chloroplast movement (Kadota et al., 2009; Kong et al., 2013a). The greater the difference in the amount of cp-actin filaments between the front and rear regions of chloroplasts becomes, the faster the chloroplasts move, in which the magnitude of the difference is determined by fluence rate (Kagawa and Wada, 2004; Kadota et al., 2009; Kong et al., 2013a). Strong blue light-induced disappearance of cp-actin filaments is regulated in a phot2-dependent manner before the intensive polymerization of cp-actin filaments at the front region occurs (Kadota et al., 2009; Ichikawa et al., 2011; Kong et al., 2013a). This phot2-dependent response contributes to the greater difference in the amount of cp-actin filaments between the front and rear regions of chloroplasts. Similar behavior of cp-actin filaments has also been observed in A. capillus-veneris (Tsuboi and Wada, 2012) and P. patens (Yamashita et al., 2011).Like chloroplasts, nuclei also show light-mediated movement and positioning (nuclear photorelocation movement) in land plants (for review, see Higa et al., 2014b). In gametophytic cells of A. capillus-veneris, weak light induced the accumulation responses of both chloroplasts and nuclei, whereas strong light induced avoidance responses (Kagawa and Wada, 1993, 1995; Tsuboi et al., 2007). However, in mesophyll cells of Arabidopsis, strong blue light induced both chloroplast and nuclear avoidance responses, but weak blue light induced only the chloroplast accumulation response (Iwabuchi et al., 2007, 2010; Higa et al., 2014a). In Arabidopsis pavement cells, small numbers of tiny plastids were found and showed autofluorescence under the confocal laser-scanning microscopy (Iwabuchi et al., 2010; Higa et al., 2014a). Hereafter, the plastid in the pavement cells is called the pavement cell plastid. Strong blue light-induced avoidance responses of pavement cell plastids and nuclei were induced in a phot2-dependent manner, but the accumulation response was not detected for either organelle (Iwabuchi et al., 2007, 2010; Higa et al., 2014a). In both Arabidopsis and A. capillus-veneris, phots mediate nuclear photorelocation movement, and phot2 mediates the nuclear avoidance response (Iwabuchi et al., 2007, 2010; Tsuboi et al., 2007). The nuclear avoidance response is dependent on actin filaments in both mesophyll and pavement cells of Arabidopsis (Iwabuchi et al., 2010). Recently, it was shown that the nuclear avoidance response relies on cp-actin-dependent movement of pavement cell plastids, where nuclei are associated with pavement cell plastids of Arabidopsis (Higa et al., 2014a). In mesophyll cells, nuclear avoidance response is likely dependent on cp-actin filament-mediated chloroplast movement, because the mutants deficient in chloroplast movement were also defective in nuclear avoidance response (Higa et al., 2014a). Thus, phots mediate both chloroplast (and pavement cell plastid) and nuclear photorelocation movement by regulating cp-actin filaments.Molecular genetic analyses of Arabidopsis mutants deficient in chloroplast photorelocation movement have identified many molecular factors involved in signal transduction and/or motility systems as well as those involved in the photoreceptor system for chloroplast photorelocation movement (and thus, nuclear photorelocation movement; for review, see Suetsugu and Wada, 2012; Wada and Suetsugu, 2013; Kong and Wada, 2014). CHLOROPLAST UNUSUAL POSITIONING1 (CHUP1; Oikawa et al., 2003) and KINESIN-LIKE PROTEIN FOR ACTIN-BASED CHLOROPLAST MOVEMENT (KAC; Suetsugu et al., 2010b) are key factors for generating and/or maintaining cp-actin filaments. Both proteins are highly conserved in land plants and essential for the movement and attachment of chloroplasts to the plasma membrane in Arabidopsis (Oikawa et al., 2003, 2008; Suetsugu et al., 2010b), A. capillus-veneris (Suetsugu et al., 2012), and P. patens (Suetsugu et al., 2012; Usami et al., 2012). CHUP1 is localized on the chloroplast outer membrane and binds to globular and filamentous actins and profilin in vitro (Oikawa et al., 2003, 2008; Schmidt von Braun and Schleiff, 2008). Although KAC is a kinesin-like protein, it lacks microtubule-dependent motor activity but has filamentous actin binding activity (Suetsugu et al., 2010b). An actin-bundling protein THRUMIN1 (THRUM1) is required for efficient chloroplast photorelocation movement (Whippo et al., 2011) and interacts with cp-actin filaments (Kong et al., 2013a). chup1 and kac mutant plants were shown to lack detectable cp-actin filaments (Kadota et al., 2009; Suetsugu et al., 2010b; Ichikawa et al., 2011; Kong et al., 2013a). Similarly, cp-actin filaments were rarely detected in thrum1 mutant plants (Kong et al., 2013a), indicating that THRUM1 also plays an important role in maintaining cp-actin filaments.Other proteins J-DOMAIN PROTEIN REQUIRED FOR CHLOROPLAST ACCUMULATION RESPONSE1 (JAC1; Suetsugu et al., 2005), WEAK CHLOROPLAST MOVEMENT UNDER BLUE LIGHT1 (WEB1; Kodama et al., 2010), and PLASTID MOVEMENT IMPAIRED2 (PMI2; Luesse et al., 2006; Kodama et al., 2010) are involved in the light regulation of cp-actin filaments and chloroplast photorelocation movement. JAC1 is an auxilin-like J-domain protein that mediates the chloroplast accumulation response through its J-domain function (Suetsugu et al., 2005; Takano et al., 2010). WEB1 and PMI2 are coiled-coil proteins that interact with each other (Kodama et al., 2010). Although web1 and pmi2 were partially defective in the avoidance response, the jac1 mutation completely suppressed the phenotype of web1 and pmi2, suggesting that the WEB1/PMI2 complex suppresses JAC1 function (i.e. the accumulation response) under strong light conditions (Kodama et al., 2010). Both web1 and pmi2 showed impaired disappearance of cp-actin filaments in response to strong blue light (Kodama et al., 2010). However, the exact molecular functions of these proteins are unknown.In this study, we characterized mutant plants deficient in the PMI1 gene and two homologous genes PLASTID MOVEMENT IMPAIRED1-RELATED1 (PMIR1) and PMIR2. PMI1 was identified through molecular genetic analyses of pmi1 mutants that showed severe defects in chloroplast accumulation and avoidance responses (DeBlasio et al., 2005). PMI1 is a plant-specific C2-domain protein (DeBlasio et al., 2005; Zhang and Aravind, 2010), but its roles and those of PMIRs in cp-actin-mediated chloroplast and nuclear photorelocation movements remained unclear. Thus, we analyzed chloroplast and nuclear photorelocation movements in the single, double, and triple mutants of pmi1, pmir1, and pmir2. 相似文献

Plant trichomes play important protective functions and may have a major influence on leaf surface wettability. With the aim of gaining insight into trichome structure, composition, and function in relation to water-plant surface interactions, we analyzed the adaxial and abaxial leaf surface of holm oak (Quercus ilex) as a model. By measuring the leaf water potential 24 h after the deposition of water drops onto abaxial and adaxial surfaces, evidence for water penetration through the upper leaf side was gained in young and mature leaves. The structure and chemical composition of the abaxial (always present) and adaxial (occurring only in young leaves) trichomes were analyzed by various microscopic and analytical procedures. The adaxial surfaces were wettable and had a high degree of water drop adhesion in contrast to the highly unwettable and water-repellent abaxial holm oak leaf sides. The surface free energy and solubility parameter decreased with leaf age, with higher values determined for the adaxial sides. All holm oak leaf trichomes were covered with a cuticle. The abaxial trichomes were composed of 8% soluble waxes, 49% cutin, and 43% polysaccharides. For the adaxial side, it is concluded that trichomes and the scars after trichome shedding contribute to water uptake, while the abaxial leaf side is highly hydrophobic due to its high degree of pubescence and different trichome structure, composition, and density. Results are interpreted in terms of water-plant surface interactions, plant surface physical chemistry, and plant ecophysiology.Plant surfaces have an important protecting function against multiple biotic and abiotic stress factors (Riederer, 2006). They may, for example, limit the attack of insects (Eigenbrode and Jetter, 2002) or pathogenic fungi (Gniwotta et al., 2005; Łaźniewska et al., 2012), avoid damage caused by high intensities of UV and visible radiation (Reicosky and Hanover, 1978; Karabourniotis and Bormann, 1999), help to regulate leaf temperature (Ehleringer and Björkman, 1978; Ripley et al., 1999), and chiefly prevent plant organs from dehydration (Riederer and Schreiber, 2001).The epidermis of plants has been found to have a major degree of physical and chemical variability and may often contain specialized cells such as trichomes or stomata (Roth-Nebelsick et al., 2009; Javelle et al., 2011). Most aerial organs are covered with an extracellular and generally lipid-rich layer named the cuticle, which is typically composed of waxes embedded in (intracuticular waxes) or deposited on (epicuticular waxes) a biopolymer matrix of cutin, forming a network of cross-esterified hydroxy C16 and/or C18 fatty acids, and/or cutan, with variable amounts of polysaccharides and phenolics (Domínguez et al., 2011; Yeats and Rose, 2013). Different nano- and/or microscale levels of plant surface sculpturing have been observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), generally in relation to the topography of epicuticular waxes, cuticular folds, and epidermal cells (Koch and Barthlott, 2009). Such surface features together with their chemical composition (Khayet and Fernández, 2012) may lead to a high degree of roughness and hydrophobicity (Koch and Barthlott, 2009; Konrad et al., 2012). The interactions of plant surfaces with water have been addressed in some investigations (Brewer et al., 1991; Brewer and Smith, 1997; Pandey and Nagar, 2003; Hanba et al., 2004; Dietz et al., 2007; Holder, 2007a, 2007b; Fernández et al., 2011, 2014; Roth-Nebelsick et al., 2012; Wen et al., 2012; Urrego-Pereira et al., 2013) and are a topic of growing interest for plant ecophysiology (Helliker and Griffiths, 2007; Aryal and Neuner, 2010; Limm and Dawson, 2010; Kim and Lee, 2011; Berry and Smith, 2012; Berry et al., 2013; Rosado and Holder, 2013; Helliker, 2014). On the other hand, the mechanisms of foliar uptake of water and solutes by plant surfaces are still not fully understood (Fernández and Eichert, 2009; Burkhardt and Hunsche, 2013), but they may play an important ecophysiological role (Limm et al., 2009; Johnstone and Dawson, 2010; Adamec, 2013; Berry et al., 2014).The importance of trichomes and pubescent layers on water drop-plant surface interactions and on the subsequent potential water uptake into the organs has been analyzed in some investigations (Fahn, 1986; Brewer et al., 1991; Grammatikopoulos and Manetas, 1994; Brewer and Smith, 1997; Pierce et al., 2001; Kenzo et al., 2008; Fernández et al., 2011, 2014; Burrows et al., 2013). Trichomes are unicellular or multicellular and glandular or nonglandular appendages, which originate from epidermal cells only and develop outwards on the surface of plant organs (Werker, 2000). Nonglandular trichomes are categorized according to their morphology and exhibit a major variability in size, morphology, and function. On the other hand, glandular trichomes are classified by the secretory materials they excrete, accumulate, or absorb (Johnson, 1975; Werker, 2000; Wagner et al., 2004). Trichomes can be often found in xeromorphic leaves and in young organs (Fahn, 1986; Karabourniotis et al., 1995). The occurrence of protecting leaf trichomes has been also reported for Mediterranean species such as holm oak (Quercus ilex; Karabourniotis et al., 1995, 1998; Morales et al., 2002; Karioti et al., 2011; Camarero et al., 2012). There is limited information about the nature of the surface of trichomes, but they are also covered with a cuticle similarly to other epidermal cell types (Fernández et al., 2011, 2014).In this study and using holm oak as a model, we assessed, for the first time, the leaf surface-water relations of the abaxial (always pubescent) versus the adaxial (only pubescent in developing leaves and for a few months) surface, including their capacity to absorb surface-deposited water drops. Based on membrane science methodologies (Fernández et al., 2011; Khayet and Fernández, 2012) and following a new integrative approach, the chemical, physical, and anatomical properties of holm oak leaf surfaces and trichomes were analyzed, with the aim of addressing the following questions. Are young and mature adaxial and abaxial leaf surfaces capable of absorbing water deposited as drops on to the surfaces? Are young and mature abaxial and adaxial leaf surfaces similar in relation to their wettability, hydrophobicity, polarity, work of adhesion (Wa) for water, solubility parameter (δ), and surface free energy (γ)? What is the physical and chemical nature of the adaxial versus the abaxial trichomes, chiefly in relation to young leaves? 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

Dehydrins (DHNs; late embryogenesis abundant D11 family) are a family of intrinsically unstructured plant proteins that accumulate in the late stages of seed development and in vegetative tissues subjected to water deficit, salinity, low temperature, or abscisic acid treatment. We demonstrated previously that maize (Zea mays) DHNs bind preferentially to anionic phospholipid vesicles; this binding is accompanied by an increase in α-helicity of the protein, and adoption of α-helicity can be induced by sodium dodecyl sulfate. All DHNs contain at least one “K-segment,” a lysine-rich 15-amino acid consensus sequence. The K-segment is predicted to form a class A2 amphipathic α-helix, a structural element known to interact with membranes and proteins. Here, three K-segment deletion proteins of maize DHN1 were produced. Lipid vesicle-binding assays revealed that the K-segment is required for binding to anionic phospholipid vesicles, and adoption of α-helicity of the K-segment accounts for most of the conformational change of DHNs upon binding to anionic phospholipid vesicles or sodium dodecyl sulfate. The adoption of structure may help stabilize cellular components, including membranes, under stress conditions.When plants encounter environmental stresses such as drought or low temperature, various responses take place to adapt to these conditions. Typical responses include increased expression of chaperones, signal transduction pathway and late embryogenesis abundant (LEA) proteins, osmotic adjustment, and induction of degradation and repair systems (Ingram and Bartels, 1996).Dehydrins (DHNs; LEA D11 family) are a subfamily of group 2 LEA proteins that accumulate to high levels during late stages of seed development and in vegetative tissues subjected to water deficit, salinity, low temperature, or abscisic acid (ABA) treatment (Svensson et al., 2002). Some DHNs are expressed constitutively during normal growth (Nylander et al., 2001; Rorat et al., 2004, 2006; Rodriguez et al., 2005). DHNs exist in a wide range of photosynthetic organisms, including angiosperms, gymnosperms, algae, and mosses (Svensson et al., 2002). DHNs are encoded by a dispersed multigene family and are differentially regulated, at least in higher plants. For example, 13 Dhn genes have been identified in barley (Hordeum vulgare), dispersed over seven genetic map locations (Choi et al., 1999; Svensson et al., 2002) and regulated variably by drought, low temperature, and embryo development (Tommasini et al., 2008). DHNs are localized in various subcellular compartments, including cytosol (Roberts et al., 1993), nucleus (Houde et al., 1995), chloroplast (Artus et al., 1996), vacuole (Heyen et al., 2002), and proximal to the plasma membrane and protein bodies (Asghar et al., 1994; Egerton-Warburton et al., 1997; Puhakainen et al., 2004). Elevated expression of Dhn genes generally has been correlated with the acquisition of tolerance to abiotic stresses such as drought (Whitsitt et al., 1997), salt (Godoy et al., 1994; Jayaprakash et al., 1998), chilling (Ismail et al., 1999a), or freezing (Houde et al., 1995; Danyluk et al., 1998; Fowler et al., 2001). The differences in expression and tissue location suggest that individual members of the Dhn multigene family have somewhat distinct biological functions (Close, 1997; Zhu et al., 2000; Nylander et al., 2001). Many studies have observed a positive correlation between the accumulation of DHNs and tolerance to abiotic stresses (Svensson et al., 2002). However, overexpression of a single DHN protein has not, in general, been sufficient to confer stress tolerance (Puhakainen et al., 2004).DHNs are subclassified by sequence motifs referred to as the K-segment (Lys-rich consensus sequence), the Y-segment (N-terminal conserved sequence), the S-segment (a tract of Ser residues), and the φ-segment (Close, 1996). Because of high hydrophilicity, high content of Gly (>20%), and the lack of a defined three-dimensional structure in the pure form (Lisse et al., 1996), DHNs have been categorized as “intrinsically disordered/unstructured proteins” or “hydrophilins” (Wright and Dyson, 1999; Garay-Arroyo et al., 2000; Tompa, 2005; Kovacs et al., 2008). On the basis of compositional and biophysical properties and their link to abiotic stresses, several functions of DHNs have been proposed, including ion sequestration (Roberts et al., 1993), water retention (McCubbin et al., 1985), and stabilization of membranes or proteins (Close, 1996, 1997). Observations from in vitro experiments include DHN binding to lipid vesicles (Koag et al., 2003; Kovacs et al., 2008) or metals (Svensson et al., 2000; Heyen et al., 2002; Kruger et al., 2002; Alsheikh et al., 2003; Hara et al., 2005), protection of membrane lipid against peroxidation (Hara et al., 2003), retention of hydration or ion sequestration (Bokor et al., 2005; Tompa et al., 2006), and chaperone activity against the heat-induced inactivation and aggregation of various proteins (Kovacs et al., 2008).Intrinsically disordered/unstructured proteins that lack a well-defined three-dimensional structure have recently been recognized to be prevalent in prokaryotes and eukaryotes (Oldfield et al., 2005). They fulfill important functions in signal transduction, gene expression, and binding to targets such as protein, RNA, ions, and membranes (Wright and Dyson, 1999; Tompa, 2002; Dyson and Wright, 2005). The disorder confers structural flexibility and malleability to adapt to changes in the protein environment, including water potential, pH, ionic strength, and temperature, and to undergo structural transition when complexed with ligands such as other proteins, DNA, RNA, or membranes (Prestrelski et al., 1993; Uversky, 2002). Structural changes from disorder to ordered functional structure also can be induced by the folding of a partner protein (Wright and Dyson, 1999; Tompa, 2002; Mouillon et al., 2008).The idea that DHNs interact with membranes is consistent with many immunolocalization studies, which have shown that DHNs accumulate near the plasma membrane or membrane-rich areas surrounding lipid and protein bodies (Asghar et al., 1994; Egerton-Warburton et al., 1997; Danyluk et al., 1998; Puhakainen et al., 2004). The K-segment is predicted to form a class A2 amphipathic α-helix, in which hydrophilic and hydrophobic residues are arranged on opposite faces (Close, 1996). The amphipathic α-helix is a structural element known to interact with membranes and proteins (Epand et al., 1995). Also, in the presence of helical inducers such as SDS and trifluoroethanol (Dalal and Pio, 2006), DHNs take on α-helicity (Lisse et al., 1996; Ismail et al., 1999b). We previously examined the binding of DHN1 to liposomes and found that DHNs bind preferentially to anionic phospholipids and that this binding is accompanied by an increase in α-helicity of the protein (Koag et al., 2003). Similarly, a mitochondrial LEA protein, one of the group III LEA proteins, recently has been shown to interact with and protect membranes subjected to desiccation, coupled with the adoption of amphipathic α-helices (Tolleter et al., 2007).Here, we explore the basis of DHN-vesicle interaction using K-segment deletion proteins. This study reveals that the K-segment is necessary and sufficient for binding to anionic phospholipid vesicles and that the adoption of α-helicity of DHN proteins can be attributed mainly to the K-segment. 相似文献
