In flowering plants, pollen germinates on the stigma and pollen tubes grow through
the style to fertilize the ovules. Enzymatic production of reactive oxygen species
(ROS) has been suggested to be involved in
pollen tube tip growth. Here, we characterized the function and regulation of the
NADPH oxidases RbohH and RbohJ (Respiratory burst oxidase homolog H and J) in pollen
tubes in Arabidopsis thaliana. In the rbohH and
rbohJ single mutants, pollen tube tip growth was comparable to
that of the wild type; however, tip growth was severely impaired in the double
mutant. In vivo imaging showed that ROS
accumulation in the pollen tube was impaired in the double mutant. Both RbohH and
RbohJ, which contain Ca2+ binding EF-hand motifs, possessed
Ca2+-induced ROS-producing
activity and localized at the plasma membrane of the pollen tube tip. Point mutations
in the EF-hand motifs impaired Ca2+-induced ROS production and complementation of the double mutant
phenotype. We also showed that a protein phosphatase inhibitor enhanced the
Ca2+-induced ROS-producing
activity of RbohH and RbohJ, suggesting their synergistic activation by protein
phosphorylation and Ca2+. Our results suggest that ROS production by RbohH and RbohJ is essential for proper pollen
tube tip growth, and furthermore, that Ca2+-induced ROS positive feedback regulation is conserved in the polarized
cell growth to shape the long tubular cell. 相似文献

Autophagy as a conserved catabolic pathway can respond to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and plays an important role in degrading oxidized proteins in plants under various stress conditions. However, how ROS regulates autophagy in response to oxidative stresses is largely unknown. Here, we show that autophagy-related protein 3 (ATG3) interacts with the cytosolic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenases (GAPCs) to regulate autophagy in Nicotiana benthamiana plants. We found that oxidative stress inhibits the interaction of ATG3 with GAPCs. Silencing of GAPCs significantly activates ATG3-dependent autophagy, while overexpression of GAPCs suppresses autophagy in N. benthamiana plants. Moreover, silencing of GAPCs enhances N gene-mediated cell death and plant resistance against both incompatible pathogens Tobacco mosaic virus and Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato DC3000, as well as compatible pathogen P. syringae pv tabaci. These results indicate that GAPCs have multiple functions in the regulation of autophagy, hypersensitive response, and plant innate immunity. 相似文献

Lipid peroxide-derived toxic carbonyl compounds (oxylipin carbonyls), produced downstream of reactive oxygen species (ROS), were recently revealed to mediate abiotic stress-induced damage of plants. Here, we investigated how oxylipin carbonyls cause cell death. When tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) Bright Yellow-2 (BY-2) cells were exposed to hydrogen peroxide, several species of short-chain oxylipin carbonyls [i.e. 4-hydroxy-(E)-2-nonenal and acrolein] accumulated and the cells underwent programmed cell death (PCD), as judged based on DNA fragmentation, an increase in terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling-positive nuclei, and cytoplasm retraction. These oxylipin carbonyls caused PCD in BY-2 cells and roots of tobacco and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). To test the possibility that oxylipin carbonyls mediate an oxidative signal to cause PCD, we performed pharmacological and genetic experiments. Carnosine and hydralazine, having distinct chemistry for scavenging carbonyls, significantly suppressed the increase in oxylipin carbonyls and blocked PCD in BY-2 cells and Arabidopsis roots, but they did not affect the levels of ROS and lipid peroxides. A transgenic tobacco line that overproduces 2-alkenal reductase, an Arabidopsis enzyme to detoxify α,β-unsaturated carbonyls, suffered less PCD in root epidermis after hydrogen peroxide or salt treatment than did the wild type, whereas the ROS level increases due to the stress treatments were not different between the lines. From these results, we conclude that oxylipin carbonyls are involved in the PCD process in oxidatively stressed cells. Our comparison of the ability of distinct carbonyls to induce PCD in BY-2 cells revealed that acrolein and 4-hydroxy-(E)-2-nonenal are the most potent carbonyls. The physiological relevance and possible mechanisms of the carbonyl-induced PCD are discussed.In plants, environmental stressors such as extreme temperatures, drought, intense UV-B radiation, and soil salinity can cause tissue damage, growth inhibition, and even death. These detrimental effects are often ascribed to the action of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced in the stressed plants for the following reasons: (1) various environmental stressors commonly cause the oxidation of biomolecules in plants; and (2) transgenic plants with enhanced antioxidant capacities show improved tolerance to environmental stressors (Suzuki et al., 2014). The production of ROS such as superoxide anion radical and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is intrinsically associated with photosynthesis and respiration (Foyer and Noctor, 2003; Asada, 2006).Plant cells are equipped with abundant antioxidant molecules such as α-tocopherol, β-carotene, and ascorbic acid and an array of ROS-scavenging enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and ascorbate peroxidase to maintain low intracellular ROS levels. When plants are exposed to severe and prolonged environmental stress, the balance between the production and scavenging of ROS is disrupted and the cellular metabolism reaches a new state of higher ROS production and lower antioxidant capacity. Then, the oxidation of vital biomolecules such as proteins and DNA proceeds, and as a consequence, cells undergo oxidative injury (Mano, 2002). The cause-effect relationship between ROS and tissue injury in plants is thus widely accepted, but the biochemical processes between the generation of ROS and cell death are poorly understood.Increasing evidence shows that oxylipin carbonyls mediate the oxidative injury of plants (Yamauchi et al., 2012; for review, see Mano, 2012; Farmer and Mueller, 2013). Oxylipin carbonyls are a group of carbonyl compounds derived from oxygenated lipids and fatty acids. The production of oxylipin carbonyls in living cells is explained as follows. Lipids in the membranes are constitutively oxidized by ROS to form lipid peroxides (LOOHs; Mène-Saffrané et al., 2007) because they are the most immediate and abundant targets near the ROS production sites. There are two types of LOOH formation reaction from ROS (Halliwell and Gutteridge, 2007). One is the radical-dependent reaction. Highly oxidizing radicals, such as hydroxyl radical (standard reduction potential of the HO•/H2O pair, +2.31 V) and the protonated form of superoxide radical (HO2/H2O2, +1.06 V), can abstract a hydrogen atom from a lipid molecule, especially at the central carbon of a pentadiene structure in a polyunsaturated fatty acid, to form a radical. This organic radical rapidly reacts with molecular oxygen, forming a lipid hydroperoxyl radical, which then abstracts a hydrogen atom from a neighboring molecule and becomes a LOOH. The other reaction is the addition of singlet oxygen to a double bond of an unsaturated fatty acid to form an endoperoxide or a hydroperoxide (both are LOOHs). A variety of LOOH species are formed, depending on the source fatty acid and also by the oxygenation mechanism (Montillet et al., 2004). LOOH molecules are unstable, and in the presence of redox catalysts such as transition metal ions or free radicals, they decompose to form various aldehydes and ketones (i.e. oxylipin carbonyls; Farmer and Mueller, 2013). The chemical species of oxylipin carbonyl formed in the cells differ according to the fatty acids and the type of ROS involved (Grosch, 1987; Mano et al., 2014a).More than a dozen species of oxylipin carbonyls are formed in plants (for review, see Mano et al., 2009). Oxylipin carbonyls are constitutively formed in plants under normal physiological conditions, and the levels of certain types of oxylipin carbonyls rise severalfold under stress conditions, detected as increases in the free carbonyl content (Mano et al., 2010; Yin et al., 2010; Kai et al., 2012) and by the extent of the carbonyl modification of target proteins (Winger et al., 2007; Mano et al., 2014b). Among the oxylipin carbonyls, the α,β-unsaturated carbonyls, such as acrolein and 4-hydroxy-(E)-2-nonenal (HNE), have high reactivity and cytotoxicity (Esterbauer et al., 1991; Alméras et al., 2003). They strongly inactivate lipoate enzymes in mitochondria (Taylor et al., 2002) and thiol-regulated enzymes in chloroplasts (Mano et al., 2009) in vitro and cause tissue injury in leaves when they are fumigated (Matsui et al., 2012).The physiological relevance of oxylipin carbonyls has been shown by the observation that the overexpression of different carbonyl-scavenging enzymes commonly confers stress tolerance to transgenic plants (for review, see Mano, 2012). For example, 2-alkenal reductase (AER)-overproducing tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) showed tolerance to aluminum (Yin et al., 2010), aldehyde dehydrogenase-overproducing Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) showed tolerance to osmotic and oxidative stress (Sunkar et al., 2003), and aldehyde reductase-overproducing tobacco showed tolerance to chemical and drought stress (Oberschall et al., 2000). In addition, the genetic suppression of a carbonyl-scavenging enzyme made plants susceptible to stressors (Kotchoni et al., 2006; Shin et al., 2009; Yamauchi et al., 2012; Tang et al., 2014). Under stress conditions, there are positive correlations between the levels of certain carbonyls and the extent of tissue injury (Mano et al., 2010; Yin et al., 2010; Yamauchi et al., 2012). Thus, it is evident that oxylipin carbonyls, downstream products of ROS, are causes of oxidative damage in plant cells.To investigate how oxylipin carbonyls damage cells in oxidatively stressed plants, we here examined the mode of cell death that is induced by oxylipin carbonyls and identified the carbonyl species responsible for the cell death. We observed that oxylipin carbonyls cause programmed cell death (PCD), and our results demonstrated that the oxylipin carbonyls mediate the oxidative stress-induced PCD in tobacco Bright Yellow-2 (BY-2) cultured cells and in roots of tobacco and Arabidopsis plants. We then estimated the relative strengths of distinct carbonyl species to initiate the PCD program. Our findings demonstrate a critical role of the lipid metabolites in ROS signaling. 相似文献

Programmed cell death (PCD) is a crucial process both for plant development and responses to biotic and abiotic stress. There is accumulating evidence that chloroplasts may play a central role during plant PCD as for mitochondria in animal cells, but it is still unclear whether they participate in PCD onset, execution, or both. To tackle this question, we have analyzed the contribution of chloroplast function to the cell death phenotype of the myoinositol phosphate synthase1 (mips1) mutant that forms spontaneous lesions in a light-dependent manner. We show that photosynthetically active chloroplasts are required for PCD to occur in mips1, but this process is independent of the redox state of the chloroplast. Systematic genetic analyses with retrograde signaling mutants reveal that 3′-phosphoadenosine 5′-phosphate, a chloroplast retrograde signal that modulates nuclear gene expression in response to stress, can inhibit cell death and compromises plant innate immunity via inhibition of the RNA-processing 5′-3′ exoribonucleases. Our results provide evidence for the role of chloroplast-derived signal and RNA metabolism in the control of cell death and biotic stress response.Programmed cell death (PCD) is a universal process in multicellular organisms, contributing to the controlled and active degradation of the cell. In plants, PCD is required for processes as diverse as development, self-incompatibility, and stress response. One well-documented example is the induction of PCD upon pathogen attack, allowing the confinement of the infection, and resistance of the plant. The signaling events leading to the onset of PCD have been extensively studied: pathogen recognition triggers activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase cascades, as well as production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and salicylic acid (SA), which lead to a hypersensitive response (Coll et al., 2011).From a cellular point of view, several classes of plant PCD have been described and compared with the ones found in animal cells (van Doorn, 2011). PCD is thought to have evolved independently in plants and animals, and genes underlying these mechanisms are therefore poorly conserved between the two kingdoms. However, most cellular features are conserved between plant and animal PCD that are both characterized by cell shrinkage, chromatin condensation, DNA laddering, mitochondria permeabilization, and depolarization (Dickman and Fluhr, 2013). In animal cells, mitochondria play a central role in the regulation of apoptosis (Czabotar et al., 2014; Mariño et al., 2014), and this role is likely shared between the two kingdoms (Lord and Gunawardena, 2012). That said, additional mitochondria-independent PCD pathways have clearly evolved in plants.Genetic approaches have greatly contributed to our understanding of cellular pathways governing PCD in plants. For example, the isolation of lesion mimic mutants (LMMs), in which cell death occurs spontaneously, has allowed the identification of several negative regulators of cell death (for review, see Bruggeman et al., 2015b). Interestingly, lesion formation is light dependent in several of these mutants, which include one of the best characterized LMMs—lesions simulating disease1 (lsd1; Dietrich et al., 1994). The LSD1 protein is required for plant acclimation to excess excitation energy (Mateo et al., 2004): when plants are exposed to excessive amounts of light, the redox status of the plastoquinone pool in the chloroplastic electron transfer chain is thought to influence LSD1-dependent signaling to modulate cell death (Mühlenbock et al., 2008). Additionally, we have previously identified the myoinositol phosphate synthase1 (mips1) mutant as a LMM, in which lesion formation is also light dependent (Meng et al., 2009). This mutant is deficient in the myoinositol (MI) phosphate synthase that catalyzes the first committed step of MI biosynthesis and displays pleiotropic defects such as reduced root growth, abnormal vein development, and spontaneous cell death on leaves, together with severe growth reduction after lesions begin to develop (Meng et al., 2009; Donahue et al., 2010). The light-dependent PCD in the mips1 mutant, as observed for lsd1, suggests that chloroplasts may play a role in the MI-dependent cell death regulation. Accumulating evidence suggests that chloroplasts may play a central role in PCD regulation like mitochondria in animal cells (Wang and Bayles, 2013). First, as described in the case of lsd1, excess light energy received by the chloroplast can function as a trigger for PCD. Furthermore, singlet oxygen (1O2), a ROS, can activate the EXECUTER1 (EX1) and EX2 proteins in the chloroplasts to initiate PCD (Lee et al., 2007). Likewise, ROS generated by chloroplasts play a major role for PCD onset during nonhost interaction between tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) and Xanthomonas campestris (Zurbriggen et al., 2009). Finally, functional chloroplasts have also been shown to be required for PCD in cell suspensions (Gutierrez et al., 2014) and in a number of LMMs (Mateo et al., 2004; Meng et al., 2009; Bruggeman et al., 2015b). Thus, chloroplasts are now recognized as important components of plant defense response against pathogens (Stael et al., 2015) and are proposed to function with mitochondria in the execution of PCD (Van Aken and Van Breusegem, 2015). However, the exact signaling and metabolic contribution of chloroplasts to PCD remain to be elucidated. Furthermore, cross talk between chloroplasts and mitochondria does occur, such as during photorespiration (Sunil et al., 2013), but whether such communication functions sequentially or in parallel in the control of PCD remains to be determined (Van Aken and Van Breusegem, 2015).To further investigate how chloroplasts contribute to the regulation of cell death, we performed both forward and reverse genetics on the mips1 mutant. An extragenic secondary mutation in divinyl protochlorophyllide 8-vinyl reductase involved in chlorophyll biosynthesis leads to chlorophyll deficiency that abolishes the mips1 cell death phenotype, as do changes in CO2 availability. These findings provide evidence for a link between photosynthetic activity and PCD induction in mips1. Additionally, we investigated the contribution of several retrograde signaling pathways (Chan et al., 2015) to the control of PCD in mips1. This process was independent of GENOMES UNCOUPLED (GUN) and EX signaling pathways, but we found that the SAL1-PAP_XRN retrograde signaling pathway inhibits cell death as well as basal defense reactions in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). 相似文献

Sphingolipids are emerging as second messengers in programmed cell death and plant defense mechanisms. However, their role in plant defense is far from being understood, especially against necrotrophic pathogens. Sphingolipidomics and plant defense responses during pathogenic infection were evaluated in the mutant of long-chain base phosphate (LCB-P) lyase, encoded by the dihydrosphingosine-1-phosphate lyase1 (AtDPL1) gene and regulating long-chain base/LCB-P homeostasis. Atdpl1 mutants exhibit tolerance to the necrotrophic fungus Botrytis cinerea but susceptibility to the hemibiotrophic bacterium Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato (Pst). Here, a direct comparison of sphingolipid profiles in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) during infection with pathogens differing in lifestyles is described. In contrast to long-chain bases (dihydrosphingosine [d18:0] and 4,8-sphingadienine [d18:2]), hydroxyceramide and LCB-P (phytosphingosine-1-phosphate [t18:0-P] and 4-hydroxy-8-sphingenine-1-phosphate [t18:1-P]) levels are higher in Atdpl1-1 than in wild-type plants in response to B. cinerea. Following Pst infection, t18:0-P accumulates more strongly in Atdpl1-1 than in wild-type plants. Moreover, d18:0 and t18:0-P appear as key players in Pst- and B. cinerea-induced cell death and reactive oxygen species accumulation. Salicylic acid levels are similar in both types of plants, independent of the pathogen. In addition, salicylic acid-dependent gene expression is similar in both types of B. cinerea-infected plants but is repressed in Atdpl1-1 after treatment with Pst. Infection with both pathogens triggers higher jasmonic acid, jasmonoyl-isoleucine accumulation, and jasmonic acid-dependent gene expression in Atdpl1-1 mutants. Our results demonstrate that sphingolipids play an important role in plant defense, especially toward necrotrophic pathogens, and highlight a novel connection between the jasmonate signaling pathway, cell death, and sphingolipids.Plants have evolved a complex array of defenses when attacked by microbial pathogens. The success of plant resistance first relies on the capacity of the plant to recognize its invader. Among early events, a transient production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), known as the oxidative burst, is characteristic of successful pathogen recognition (Torres, 2010). Perception of pathogen attack then initiates a large array of immune responses, including modification of cell walls, as well as the production of antimicrobial proteins and metabolites like pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins and phytoalexins, respectively (Schwessinger and Ronald, 2012). The plant hormones salicylic acid (SA), jasmonic acid (JA), and ethylene (ET) are key players in the signaling networks involved in plant resistance (Bari and Jones, 2009; Tsuda and Katagiri, 2010; Robert-Seilaniantz et al., 2011). Interactions between these signal molecules allow the plant to activate and/or modulate an appropriate array of defense responses, depending on the pathogen lifestyle, necrotroph or biotroph (Glazebrook, 2005; Koornneef and Pieterse, 2008). Whereas SA is considered essential for resistance to (hemi)biotrophic pathogens, it is assumed that JA and ET signaling pathways are important for resistance to necrotrophic pathogens in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; Thomma et al., 2001; Glazebrook, 2005). A successful innate immune response often includes the so-called hypersensitive response (HR), a form of rapid programmed cell death (PCD) occurring in a limited area at the site of infection. This suicide of infected cells is thought to limit the spread of biotrophic pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, fungi, and oomycetes (Mur et al., 2008).During the past decade, significant progress has been made in our understanding of the cellular function of plant sphingolipids. Besides being structural components of cell membranes, sphingolipids are bioactive metabolites that regulate important cellular processes such as cell survival and PCD, occurring during either plant development or plant defense (Dunn et al., 2004; Berkey et al., 2012; Markham et al., 2013). The first evidence of the role of sphingolipids in these processes came from the use of the fungal toxins fumonisin B1 (FB1) and AAL, produced by the necrotrophic agent Alternaria alternata f. sp. lycopersici. These toxins are structural sphingosine (d18:1) analogs and function as ceramide synthase inhibitors. They triggered PCD when exogenously applied to plants. Mutant strains in which the production of such toxins is abrogated failed to infect the host plant, implying that toxin accumulation is required for pathogenicity and that the induction of plant PCD could be considered a virulence tool used by necrotrophic pathogens (Berkey et al., 2012). Moreover, several studies revealed that ceramides (Cers) and long-chain bases (LCBs) are also potent inducers of PCD in plants. For example, exogenously applied Cers and LCBs (d18:0, d18:1, or t18:0) induced PCD either in cell suspension cultures (Liang et al., 2003; Lachaud et al., 2010, 2011; Alden et al., 2011) or in whole seedlings (Shi et al., 2007; Takahashi et al., 2009; Saucedo-García et al., 2011). AAL- and FB1-induced PCD seemed to be due to the accumulation of free sphingoid bases (dihydrosphingosine [d18:0] and phytosphingosine [t18:0]; Abbas et al., 1994; Brandwagt et al., 2000; Shi et al., 2007). Spontaneous cell death in lag one homolog1 or l-myoinositol1-phosphate synthase mutant could be due to trihydroxy-LCB and/or Cer accumulation (Donahue et al., 2010; Ternes et al., 2011). Deciphering of Cer participation in the induction of HR and associated PCD also came from studies on accelerated cell death5 (acd5) and enhancing resistance to powdery mildew8 (RPW8)-mediated hypersensitive response (erh1) mutants, which displayed overaccumulation of Cers. These mutants exhibited spontaneous cell death and resistance to biotrophic pathogens, which seemed to be linked with SA and PR protein accumulation (Liang et al., 2003; Wang et al., 2008).Altogether, these data provide evidence of a link between PCD, defense, and sphingolipid metabolism. However, the fatty acid hydroxylase1/2 (atfah1/atfah2) double mutant that accumulates SA and Cers was more tolerant to the obligate biotrophic fungus Golovinomyces cichoracearum but did not display a PCD-like phenotype, suggesting that Cers alone are not involved in the induction of PCD (König et al., 2012). Moreover, Saucedo-García et al. (2011) postulated that dihydroxy-LCBs, but not trihydroxy-LCBs, might be primary mediators for LCB-induced PCD. The sphingoid base hydroxylase sbh1/sbh2 double mutant completely lacking trihydroxy-LCBs showed enhanced expression of PCD marker genes (Chen et al., 2008). On the contrary, increase in t18:0 was specifically sustained in plant interaction with the avirulent Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato (Pst) strain and correlated with a strong PCD induction in leaves (Peer et al., 2010). Thus, the nature of sphingolipids able to induce PCD is still under debate and may evolve depending on plants and their environment. The phosphorylated form of LCBs (LCB-Ps) could abrogate PCD induced by LCBs, Cers, or heat stress in a dose-dependent manner (Shi et al., 2007; Alden et al., 2011). Furthermore, blocking the conversion of LCBs to LCB-Ps by using specific inhibitors induced PCD in cell suspension culture (Alden et al., 2011). Recently, overexpression of rice (Oryza sativa) LCB kinase in transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants reduced PCD after treatment with FB1 (Zhang et al., 2013). Genetic mutation on LCB-P lyase encoded by the AtDPL1 gene, modifying the LCB-LCB-P ratio, could impact PCD levels after treatment with FB1 (Tsegaye et al., 2007). Altogether, these data point to the existence of a rheostat between LCBs and their phosphorylated forms that controls plant cell fate toward cell death or survival.Data on plant sphingolipid functions are still fragmentary. Only a few reports have described interconnections between sphingolipids, cell death, and plant defense responses, almost exclusively in response to (hemi)biotrophic pathogens. Knowledge about such relations in response to necrotrophic pathogens is still in its infancy (Rivas-San Vicente et al., 2013; Bi et al., 2014). In this report, the link between sphingolipids, cell death, and plant defense has been explored in response to Botrytis cinerea infection and in comparison with Pst infection. For this purpose, Atdpl1 mutant plants, disturbed in LCB/LCB-P accumulation without displaying any phenotype under standard growth conditions (Tsegaye et al., 2007), have been analyzed after pathogen infection. Our results revealed that modification of sphingolipid contents not only impacted plant tolerance to hemibiotrophs but also greatly affected resistance to necrotrophs. Whereas the SA signaling pathway is globally repressed in Atdpl1-1 compared with wild-type plants, the JA signaling pathway is significantly enhanced. Cell death and ROS accumulation are markedly modified in Atdpl1-1 mutant plants. We further demonstrated that phytosphingosine-1-phosphate (t18:0-P) and d18:0 are key players in pathogen-induced cell death and ROS generation. Here, we thus established a link between JA signaling, PCD, and sphingolipid metabolism. 相似文献

A central component of the plant defense response to pathogens is the hypersensitive response (HR), a form of programmed cell death (PCD). Rapid and localized induction of HR
PCD ensures that pathogen invasion is prevented. Autophagy has been implicated in the regulation of HR cell death, but the functional relationship between autophagy and HR
PCD and the regulation of these processes during the plant immune response remain controversial. Here, we show that a small GTP-binding protein, RabG3b, plays a positive role in autophagy and promotes HR cell death in response to avirulent bacterial pathogens in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Transgenic plants overexpressing a constitutively active RabG3b (RabG3bCA) displayed accelerated, unrestricted HR
PCD within 1 d of infection, in contrast to the autophagy-defective atg5-1 mutant, which gradually developed chlorotic cell death through uninfected sites over several days. Microscopic analyses showed the accumulation of autophagic structures during HR cell death in RabG3bCA cells. Our results suggest that RabG3b contributes to HR cell death via the activation of autophagy, which plays a positive role in plant immunity-triggered HR
PCD.In response to the constant attack by microbial pathogens, plants have developed defense mechanisms to protect themselves against harmful diseases caused by various pathogens. Plants primarily rely on two layers of innate immunity to cope with microbial pathogens (Jones and Dangl, 2006). The first layer of plant immunity, which is triggered by pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) such as bacterial flagellin, lipopolysaccharides, and fungal chitin, is designated PAMP-triggered immunity (PTI; Boller and He, 2009). Because pathogens have evolved to overcome PTI, plants have developed a second layer of immunity, referred to as effector-triggered immunity (ETI; Dodds and Rathjen, 2010). ETI depends on specific interactions between plant Resistance proteins and pathogen effectors and is often associated with a form of programmed cell death (PCD) termed the hypersensitive response (HR), which inhibits pathogen growth (Coll et al., 2011).Plants use PCD to regulate developmental and defense responses. In addition to pathogen attack, many abiotic stress factors such as heat and ozone exposure elicit PCD in plants (Hayward and Dinesh-Kumar, 2011). PCD also occurs during various developmental processes, including endosperm development, tracheary element (TE) differentiation, female gametophyte differentiation, leaf abscission, and senescence (Kuriyama and Fukuda, 2002; Gunawardena, 2008). Recently, plant PCD has been classified into two types, “autolytic” PCD and “nonautolytic” PCD, on the basis of the presence or absence of rapid cytoplasm clearance after tonoplast rupture, respectively (van Doorn et al., 2011). Autolytic PCD, which mainly occurs during plant development, falls under “autophagic” PCD in animals because it is associated with the accumulation of autophagy-related structures in the cytoplasm. Some forms of HR
PCD classified as nonautolytic PCD in plants are accompanied by increased vacuolization, indicating the progress of autophagy, and therefore can be placed under autophagic PCD (Hara-Nishimura et al., 2005; Hatsugai et al., 2009).Autophagy is an intracellular process in which double membrane-bound autophagosomes enclose cytoplasmic components and damaged or toxic materials and target them to the vacuole or lysosome for degradation (Chung, 2011). In plants, autophagy plays important roles in the responses to nutrient starvation, senescence, and abiotic and biotic stresses (Liu et al., 2005; Xiong et al., 2005, 2007; Bassham, 2007; Hofius et al., 2009). Accumulating evidence indicates that autophagy regulates immune responses in both animals and plants. Autophagy is essential for the direct elimination of pathogens in mammalian systems (Levine et al., 2011). Invading bacteria and viruses are targeted to autophagosomes and then delivered to the lysosome for degradation in a process called xenophagy (Levine, 2005). In addition to its function in directly killing pathogens, xenophagic degradation can provide microbial antigens for major histocompatibility complex class II presentation to the innate and adaptive immune systems (Levine, 2005; Schmid and Münz, 2007). Furthermore, the human surface receptor CD46 was shown to directly induce autophagy through physical interaction with the autophagic machinery (Joubert et al., 2009). The role of autophagy in plant basal immunity to virulent pathogens has been determined (Patel and Dinesh-Kumar, 2008; Hofius et al., 2009; Lai et al., 2011; Lenz et al., 2011). Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) plants defective in AUTOPHAGY-RELATED (ATG) genes exhibited enhanced susceptibility to the necrotrophic fungal pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Alternaria brassicicola, suggesting that the massive breakdown of cytoplasmic materials provides nutrients for the growth of necrotrophic pathogens or that fungal toxin-induced necrotic cell death is enhanced in atg mutants (Lai et al., 2011; Lenz et al., 2011). However, studies on the responses to the biotrophic pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato DC3000 (Pst DC3000) have yielded contradictory results. Whereas earlier studies reported that bacterial numbers significantly increased in ATG6-antisense (AS) and atg mutant plants (Patel and Dinesh-Kumar, 2008; Hofius et al., 2009), a recent study indicated that atg mutants exhibit increased resistance to Pst DC3000 (Lenz et al., 2011). Although these discrepancies remain to be resolved, salicylic acid (SA) levels and SA-dependent gene expression were both elevated in atg mutants, suggesting that autophagy may negatively regulate SA-associated plant immunity (Yoshimoto et al., 2009; Lenz et al., 2011). These findings indicate that the role of autophagy in plant immunity depends on the lifestyle of the invading pathogens (Lenz et al., 2011).Autophagy plays an important role in the regulation of HR
PCD in plant innate immunity (Hayward and Dinesh-Kumar, 2011). Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants silenced for ATG6/Beclin1 and other ATG genes such as phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/vacuolar protein sorting34 (VPS34), ATG3, and ATG7 underwent unrestricted HR
PCD upon pathogen infection (Liu et al., 2005). ATG6-AS and atg5 mutant Arabidopsis plants also displayed unlimited HR
PCD upon infection with the avirulent bacterium Pst DC3000 (AvrRpm1; Patel and Dinesh-Kumar, 2008; Yoshimoto et al., 2009). These studies suggest that autophagy is a “prosurvival” or “antideath” mechanism that negatively regulates HR
PCD (Liu and Bassham, 2012). By contrast, a “prodeath” role has been suggested for autophagy in HR
PCD regulation (Hofius et al., 2009). Pst DC3000 (AvrRps4)-induced and, to a lesser extent, Pst DC3000 (AvrRpm1)-induced HR
PCD was suppressed in atg mutants, suggesting that autophagy plays a positive role and that autophagic cell death is involved in RPS4- and RPM1-mediated HR cell death.We previously showed that the small GTP-binding protein RabG3b, isolated from secretome analysis in Arabidopsis (Oh et al., 2005), functions as a component of autophagy and positively regulates TE differentiation via the activation of autophagic cell death (Kwon et al., 2010a, 2010b). Overexpression of a constitutively active RabG3b (RabG3bCA) in plants significantly increased autophagy during PCD associated with TE differentiation, thereby enhancing TE formation and xylem development. Transgenic poplar (Populus alba × Populus tremula var glandulosa) overexpressing Arabidopsis RabG3bCA was further generated, and these exhibited significant stimulation of xylem development together with autophagic activation, suggesting that RabG3b is a positive regulator of autophagy and xylem development in Populus spp. as well as Arabidopsis (Kwon et al., 2011). We also reported that RabG3b is involved in cell death associated with the fungal pathogen A. brassicicola and infection with the fungal toxin fumonisin B1 (FB1) as well as leaf senescence (Kwon et al., 2009). Here, we extend our work to determine the role of RabG3b and autophagy in immunity-associated HR
PCD. We found that RabG3bCA transgenic plants accumulated a large number of autophagic structures and displayed accelerated, expanded cell death against a number of PCD inducers, such as FB1 and the bacterial pathogens Pst DC3000 (AvrRpm1) and Pst DC3000 (AvrRpt2). Our results suggest that RabG3b plays a positive role in immunity-associated HR
PCD via the activation of autophagic cell death. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) can function as signaling molecules, regulating key aspects of plant development, or as toxic compounds leading to oxidative damage. In this article, we show that the regulation of ROS production during megagametogenesis is largely dependent on MSD1, a mitochondrial Mn-superoxide dismutase. Wild-type mature embryo sacs show ROS exclusively in the central cell, which appears to be the main source of ROS before pollination. Accordingly, MSD1 shows a complementary expression pattern. MSD1 expression is elevated in the egg apparatus at maturity but is downregulated in the central cell. The oiwa mutants are characterized by high levels of ROS detectable in both the central cell and the micropylar cells. Remarkably, egg apparatus cells in oiwa show central cell features, indicating that high levels of ROS result in the expression of central cell characteristic genes. Notably, ROS are detected in synergid cells after pollination. This ROS burst depends on stigma pollination but precedes fertilization, suggesting that embryo sacs sense the imminent arrival of pollen tubes and respond by generating an oxidative environment. Altogether, we show that ROS play a crucial role during female gametogenesis and fertilization. MSD1 activity seems critical for maintaining ROS localization and important for embryo sac patterning. 相似文献

Nitric oxide (NO) is a small redox molecule that acts as a signal in different physiological and stress-related processes in plants. Recent evidence suggests that the biological activity of NO is also mediated by S-nitrosylation, a well-known redox-based posttranslational protein modification. Here, we show that during programmed cell death (PCD), induced by both heat shock (HS) or hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) Bright Yellow-2 cells, an increase in S-nitrosylating agents occurred. NO increased in both experimentally induced PCDs, although with different intensities. In H2O2-treated cells, the increase in NO was lower than in cells exposed to HS. However, a simultaneous increase in S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), another NO source for S-nitrosylation, occurred in H2O2-treated cells, while a decrease in this metabolite was evident after HS. Consistently, different levels of activity and expression of GSNO reductase, the enzyme responsible for GSNO removal, were found in cells subjected to the two different PCD-inducing stimuli: low in H2O2-treated cells and high in the heat-shocked ones. Irrespective of the type of S-nitrosylating agent, S-nitrosylated proteins formed upon exposure to both of the PCD-inducing stimuli. Interestingly, cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (cAPX), a key enzyme controlling H2O2 levels in plants, was found to be S-nitrosylated at the onset of both PCDs. In vivo and in vitro experiments showed that S-nitrosylation of cAPX was responsible for the rapid decrease in its activity. The possibility that S-nitrosylation induces cAPX ubiquitination and degradation and acts as part of the signaling pathway leading to PCD is discussed.Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous and diffusible redox molecule that acts as a signaling compound in both animal and plant systems (Pacher et al., 2007; Besson-Bard et al., 2008). In plants, NO has been found to play a key role in several physiological processes, such as germination, lateral root development, flowering, senescence, stomatal closure, and growth of pollen tubes (Beligni and Lamattina, 2000; Neill et al., 2002; Correa-Aragunde et al., 2004; He et al., 2004; Prado et al., 2004; Carimi et al., 2005). In addition, NO has been reported to be involved in plant responses to both biotic and abiotic stresses (Leitner et al., 2009; Siddiqui et al., 2011) and in the signaling pathways leading to programmed cell death (PCD; Delledonne et al., 1998; de Pinto et al., 2006; De Michele et al., 2009; Lin et al., 2012; Serrano et al., 2012).The cellular environment may greatly influence the chemical reactivity of NO, giving rise to different biologically active NO-derived compounds, collectively named reactive nitrogen species, which amplify and differentiate its ability to activate physiological and stress-related processes. Many of the biological properties of NO are due to its high affinity with transition metals of metalloproteins as well as its reactivity with reactive oxygen species (ROS; Hill et al., 2010). However, recent evidence suggests that protein S-nitrosylation, due to the addition of NO to reactive Cys thiols, may act as a key mechanism of NO signaling in plants (Wang et al., 2006; Astier et al., 2011). NO is also able to react with reduced glutathione (GSH), the most abundant cellular thiol, thus producing S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), which also acts as an endogenous trans-nitrosylating agent. GSNO is also considered as a NO store and donor and, as it is more stable than NO, acts as a long-distance NO transporter through the floematic flux (Malik et al., 2011). S-Nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR), which is an enzyme conserved from bacteria to humans, has been suggested to play a role in regulating S-nitrosothiols (SNO) and the turnover of S-nitrosylated proteins in plants (Liu et al., 2001; Rusterucci et al., 2007).A number of proteins involved in metabolism, stress responses, and redox homeostasis have been identified as potential targets for S-nitrosylation in Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; Lindermayr et al., 2005). During the hypersensitive response (HR), 16 proteins were identified to be S-nitrosylated in the seedlings of the same species (Romero-Puertas et al., 2008); in Citrus species, S-nitrosylation of about 50 proteins occurred in the NO-mediated resistance to high salinity (Tanou et al., 2009).However, while the number of candidate proteins for S-nitrosylation is increasing, the functional significance of protein S-nitrosylation has been explained only in a few cases, such as for nonsymbiotic hemoglobin (Perazzolli et al., 2004), glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (Lindermayr et al., 2005; Wawer et al., 2010), Met adenosyltransferase (Lindermayr et al., 2006), and metacaspase9 (Belenghi et al., 2007). Of particular interest are the cases in which S-nitrosylation involves enzymes controlling ROS homeostasis. For instance, it has been reported that S-nitrosylation of peroxiredoxin IIE regulates the antioxidant function of this enzyme and might contribute to the HR (Romero-Puertas et al., 2007). It has also been shown that in the immunity response, S-nitrosylation of NADPH oxidase inactivates the enzyme, thus reducing ROS production and controlling HR development (Yun et al., 2011).Recently, S-nitrosylation has also been shown to be involved in PCD of nitric oxide excess1 (noe1) rice (Oryza sativa) plants, which are mutated in the OsCATC gene coding for catalase (Lin et al., 2012). In these plants, which show PCD-like phenotypes under high-light conditions, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase and thioredoxin are S-nitrosylated. This suggests that the NO-dependent regulation of these proteins is involved in plant PCD, similar to what occurs in animal apoptosis (Sumbayev, 2003; Hara et al., 2005; Lin et al., 2012). The increase in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) after exposure to high light in noe1 plants is responsible for the production of NO required for leaf cell death induction (Lin et al., 2012). There is a strict relationship between H2O2 and NO in PCD activation (Delledonne et al., 2001; de Pinto et al., 2002); however, the mechanism of this interplay is largely still unknown (for review, see Zaninotto et al., 2006; Zhao, 2007; Yoshioka et al., 2011). NO can induce ROS production and vice versa, and their reciprocal modulation in terms of intensity and timing seems to be crucial in determining PCD activation and in controlling HR development (Delledonne et al., 2001; Zhao, 2007; Yun et al., 2011).In previous papers, we demonstrated that heat shock (HS) at 55°C and treatment with 50 mm
H2O2 promote PCD in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) Bright Yellow-2 (BY-2) cells (Vacca et al., 2004; de Pinto et al., 2006; Locato et al., 2008). In both experimental conditions, NO production and decrease in cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase (cAPX) were observed as early events in the PCD pathway, and cAPX decrease has been suggested to contribute to determining the redox environment required for PCD (de Pinto et al., 2006; Locato et al., 2008).In this study, the production of nitrosylating agents (NO and GSNO) in the first hours of PCD induction by HS or H2O2 treatment in tobacco BY-2 cells and their role in PCD were studied. The possibility that S-nitrosylation could be a first step in regulating cAPX activity and turnover as part of the signaling pathway leading to PCD was also investigated. 相似文献

Programmed cell death (PCD) is essential for several aspects of plant life, including development and stress responses. We recently identified the mips1 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana, which is deficient for the enzyme catalyzing the limiting step of myo-inositol (MI) synthesis. One of the most striking features of mips1 is the light-dependent formation of lesions on leaves due to salicylic acid (SA)-dependent PCD. Here, we identified a suppressor of PCD by screening for mutations that abolish the mips1 cell death phenotype. Our screen identified the hxk1 mutant, mutated in the gene encoding the hexokinase1 (HXK1) enzyme that catalyzes sugar phosphorylation and acts as a genuine glucose sensor. We show that HXK1 is required for lesion formation in mips1 due to alterations in MI content, via SA-dependant signaling. Using two catalytically inactive HXK1 mutants, we also show that hexokinase catalytic activity is necessary for the establishment of lesions in mips1. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analyses revealed a restoration of the MI content in mips1 hxk1 that it is due to the activity of the MIPS2 isoform, while MIPS3 is not involved. Our work defines a pathway of HXK1-mediated cell death in plants and demonstrates that two MIPS enzymes act cooperatively under a particular metabolic status, highlighting a novel checkpoint of MI homeostasis in plants. 相似文献

Calcium signaling and reactive oxygen species signaling are directly connected, and both contribute to cell-to-cell signal propagation in plants.Calcium (Ca2+) is an important second messenger with diverse functions not only in mammals but also in plants. It is released in response to a variety of stimuli like biotic and abiotic stresses and facilitates a tight regulation of response reactions as well as of developmental processes (Sanders et al., 2002; Steinhorst and Kudla, 2012). Ca2+ accumulation events are characterized by distinct temporal and spatial features, and they can vary in terms of amplitude, frequency, and duration (Webb et al., 1996; Scrase-Field and Knight, 2003; Dodd et al., 2010; Kudla et al., 2010). Spatially defined Ca2+ signals can be generated due to the especially slow diffusion rate of the Ca2+ ion in the cytoplasm in combination with tightly regulated release and uptake from and into different intracellular stores and the apoplast. Together, these characteristics encode information about particular stimuli, for example, drought stress that is presented to the cell as so-called Ca2+ signatures (Webb et al., 1996). This information has to be decoded and transmitted by a signaling machinery in order to initiate adequate response reactions, for example, stomatal closure (Allen et al., 2000, 2001; Sanders et al., 2002). Ca2+ signatures can be sensed by proteins that bind Ca2+ via helix-loop-helix EF-hand motifs. Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) possesses at least 250 putative EF-hand proteins, 100 of which have been classified as Ca2+ sensor proteins (Day et al., 2002; Hashimoto and Kudla, 2011). Given that each member of this intricate set of Ca2+ sensor proteins can exhibit characteristic expression and subcellular localization profiles as well as distinct Ca2+ affinities, plants are equipped with a complex signal-decoding machinery to process a wide range of different Ca2+ signals (Batistič and Kudla, 2004; Batistič and Kudla, 2010). Ca2+ functions in concert with other important second messengers like reactive oxygen species (ROS). ROS can be generated in a controlled manner by several types of enzymes, such as NADPH oxidases, in order to contribute to pathogen defense and cell signaling. Recent findings point to direct connections between ROS and Ca2+ signaling pathways that enable cell-to-cell communication and thereby long-distance transmission of signals in plants. In this Update, we focus on new findings in the field of plant Ca2+ signaling during the past 3 years since the status of the field was discussed in comprehensive reviews (Dodd et al., 2010; Kudla et al., 2010; Mazars et al., 2011; Reddy et al., 2011) and put special emphasis on the contribution of a plant-specific Ca2+ signaling network to deciphering defined Ca2+ signals and its integration with ROS signaling. 相似文献
