The nuclear envelope (NE) is a highly active structure with a specific set of nuclear envelope proteins acting in diverse cellular events. SUN proteins are conserved NE proteins among eukaryotes. Although they form nucleocytoplasmic linkage complexes in metazoan cells, their functions in the plant kingdom are unknown. To understand the function of plant SUN proteins, in this study we first investigated the dynamics of Arabidopsis SUN proteins during mitosis in Arabidopsis roots and cultured cells. For this purpose, we performed dual and triple visualization of these proteins, microtubules, chromosomes, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) in cultured cells, and observed their dynamics during mitosis using a high-speed spinning disk confocal microscope. The localizations of SUN proteins changed dynamically during mitosis, tightly coupled with NE dynamics. Moreover, NE re-formation marked with SUN proteins is temporally and spatially coordinated with plant-specific microtubule structures such as phragmoplasts. Finally, the analysis with gene knockdowns of AtSUN1 and AtSUN2 indicated that they are necessary for the maintenance and/or formation of polarized nuclear shape in root hairs. These results suggest that Arabidopsis SUN proteins function in the maintenance or formation of nuclear shape as components of the nucleocytoskeletal complex. 相似文献

During cytokinesis a new crosswall is rapidly laid down. This process involves the formation at the cell equator of a tubulo‐vesicular membrane network (TVN). This TVN evolves into a tubular network (TN) and a planar fenestrated sheet, which extends at its periphery before fusing to the mother cell wall. The role of cell wall polymers in cell plate assembly is poorly understood. We used specific stains and GFP‐labelled cellulose synthases (CESAs) to show that cellulose, as well as three distinct CESAs, accumulated in the cell plate already at the TVN stage. This early presence suggests that cellulose is extruded into the tubular membrane structures of the TVN. Co‐localisation studies using GFP–CESAs suggest the delivery of cellulose synthase complexes (CSCs) to the cell plate via phragmoplast‐associated vesicles. In the more mature TN part of the cell plate, we observed delivery of GFP–CESA from doughnut‐shaped organelles, presumably Golgi bodies. During the conversion of the TN into a planar fenestrated sheet, the GFP–CESA density diminished, whereas GFP–CESA levels remained high in the TVN zone at the periphery of the expanding cell plate. We observed retrieval of GFP–CESA in clathrin‐containing structures from the central zone of the cell plate and from the plasma membrane of the mother cell, which may contribute to the recycling of CESAs to the peripheral growth zone of the cell plate. These observations, together with mutant phenotypes of cellulose‐deficient mutants and pharmacological experiments, suggest a key role for cellulose synthesis already at early stages of cell plate assembly. 相似文献

The microtubule‐associated kinase‐like protein RUNKEL functions in somatic and syncytial cytokinesis

The microtubule (MT)‐associated putative kinase RUNKEL (RUK) is an important component of the phragmoplast machinery involved in cell plate formation in Arabidopsis somatic cytokinesis. Since loss‐of‐function ruk mutants display seedling lethality, it was previously not known whether RUK functions in mature sporophytes or during gametophyte development. In this study we utilized RUK proteins that lack the N‐terminal kinase domain to further examine biological processes related to RUK function. Truncated RUK proteins when expressed in wild‐type Arabidopsis plants cause cellularization defects not only in seedlings and adult tissues but also during male meiocyte development, resulting in abnormal pollen and reduced fertility. Ultrastructural analysis of male tetrads revealed irregular and incomplete or absent intersporal cell walls, caused by disorganized radial MT arrays. Moreover, in ruk mutants endosperm cellularization defects were also caused by disorganized radial MT arrays. Intriguingly, in seedlings expressing truncated RUK proteins, the kinesin HINKEL, which is required for the activation of a mitogen‐activated protein kinase signaling pathway regulating phragmoplast expansion, was mislocalized. Together, these observations support a common role for RUK in both phragmoplast‐based cytokinesis in somatic cells and syncytial cytokinesis in reproductive cells. 相似文献

The compensation for phragmoplast dysfunction in the male meiosis of F1 wheat × rye hybrids was described. In pollen mother cells (PMCs), he transition from central spindle fibers (forming a solid bundle) to phragmoplast (hollow cylinder) was blocked. This blockage suppresses the centrifugal movement of the phragmoplast and cell-plate formation. As a result, cells become binucleate. Sometimes, two nuclei fuse and form one restitution nucleus. In PMCs of the wheat × rye F1 hybrid D-144 gp 06 year (T. aestivum n. 93-60 t 9 × S. cereale n. Saratovskaya 7) with this phenotype, an additional phragmoplast is formed at the late telophase. This occurs by a common mechanism for the development of the immobile phragmoplast in the meiosis in bicotyledons; new phragmoplasts arise as a result of microtubule polymerization starting from the spindle poles. The accessory phragmoplast facilitates a new cell plate assembly and achievement of cytokinesis. 相似文献

轮藻和陆地植物系统发育及其进化 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Charophytic algae and land plants together make up a monophyletic group, streptophytes, which represents one of the main lineages of multicellular eukaryotes and has contributed greatly to the change of the environment on earth in the Phanerozoic Eon. Significant progress has been made to understand phylogenetic relationships among members of this group by phylogenetic studies of morphological and molecular data over the last twenty-five years. Mesostigma viride is now regarded as among the earliest diverging unicellular organisms in streptophytes. Characeae are the sister group to land plants. Liverworts represent the first diverging lineage of land plants. Hornworts and lycophytes are extant representatives of bryophytes and vascular plants, respectively, when early land plants changed from gametophyte to sporophyte as the dominant generation in the life cycle. Equisetum, Psilotaceae, and ferns constitute the monophyletic group of monilophytes, which are sister to seed plants. Gnetales are related to conifers, not to angiosperms as previously thought. Amborella, Nymphaeales, Hydatellaceae, Illiciales, Trimeniaceae, and Austrobaileya represent the earliest diverging lineages of extant angiosperms. These phylogenetic results, together with recent progress on elucidating genetic and developmental aspects of the plant life cycle, multicellularity, and gravitropism, will facilitate evolutionary developmental studies of these key traits, which will help us to gain mechanistic understanding on how plants adapted to environmental challenges when they colonized the land during one of the major transitions in evolution of life. 相似文献

The phragmoplast, a structure crucial for the completion of cytokinesis in plant cells, is composed of antiparallel microtubules (MTs) and actin filaments (AFs). However, how the parallel structure of phragmoplast MTs and AFs is maintained, especially during centrifugal phragmoplast expansion, remains elusive. Here, we analyzed a new Arabidopsis thaliana MT and AF crosslinking protein (AtMAC). When AtMAC was deleted, the phragmoplast showed disintegrity during centrifugal expansion, and the resulting phragmoplast fragmentation led to incomplete cell plates. Overexpression of AtMAC increased the resistance of phragmoplasts to depolymerization and caused the formation of additional phragmoplasts during cytokinesis. Biochemical experiments showed that AtMAC crosslinked MTs and AFs in vitro, and the truncated AtMAC protein, N-CC1, was the key domain controlling the ability of AtMAC. Further analysis showed that N-CC1(51–154) is the key domain for binding MTs, and N-CC1(51–125) for binding AFs. In conclusion, AtMAC is the novel MT and AF crosslinking protein found to be involved in regulation of phragmoplast organization during centrifugal phragmoplast expansion, which is required for complete cytokinesis. 相似文献

The conserved Fused kinase plays vital but divergent roles in many organisms from Hedgehog signalling in Drosophila to polarization and chemotaxis in Dictyostelium. Previously we have shown that Arabidopsis Fused kinase termed TWO‐IN‐ONE (TIO) is essential for cytokinesis in both sporophytic and gametophytic cell types. Here using in vivo imaging of GFP‐tagged microtubules in dividing microspores we show that TIO is required for expansion of the phragmoplast. We identify the phragmoplast‐associated kinesins, PAKRP1/Kinesin‐12A and PAKRP1L/Kinesin‐12B, as TIO‐interacting proteins and determine TIO‐Kinesin‐12 interaction domains and their requirement in male gametophytic cytokinesis. Our results support the role of TIO as a functional protein kinase that interacts with Kinesin‐12 subfamily members mainly through the C‐terminal ARM repeat domain, but with a contribution from the N‐terminal kinase domain. The interaction of TIO with Kinesin proteins and the functional requirement of their interaction domains support the operation of a Fused kinase signalling module in phragmoplast expansion that depends upon conserved structural features in diverse Fused kinases. 相似文献

Actin-Based Domains of the "Cell Periphery Complex" and their Associations with Polarized "Cell Bodies" in Higher Plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Abstract: Nascent cellulosic cell wall microfibrils and transverse (with respect of cell growth axis) arrays of cortical microtubules (MTs) beneath the plasma membrane (PM) are two well established features of the periphery of higher plant cells. Together with transmembrane synthase complexes, they represent the most characteristic form of a “cell periphery complex” of higher plant cells which determines the orientation of the diffuse (intercalary) type of their cell growth. However, there are some plant cell types having distinct cell cortex domains which are depleted of cortical MTs. These particular cell cortex domains are, instead, typically enriched with components of the actin‐based cytoskeleton. In higher plants, this feature is prominent at extending apices of two cell types displaying tip growth ‐ pollen tubes and root hairs. In the latter cell type, highly dynamic F‐actin meshworks accumulate at extending tips, and they appear to be critical for the apparently motile character of these subcellular domains. Importantly, tip growth of both root hairs and pollen tubes is immediately stopped when the most dynamic F‐actin population is depolymerized with low levels of anti‐F‐actin drugs. Intriguingly, MTs of tip‐growing plant cells are organized in the form of longitudinal arrays, throughout the cytoplasm, which interconnect the extending tips with the subapical nuclei. This suggests that actin‐rich cell cortex domains polarize plant “cell bodies” represented by nucleus‐MTs complexes. A similar polarization of “cell bodies” is typical of mitotic and cytokinetic plant cells. A further type of MT‐depleted and actomyosin‐enriched plant cell cortex domain comprises the plasmodesmata. Primary plasmodesmata are formed during cytokinesis as part of the myosin VIII‐enriched callosic cell plates, representing “juvenile” forms of the plant “cell periphery complex”. In phylogenetic terms the association between F‐actin and the PM may be considered for a more “primitive” form of cellular organization than does the association of cortical MTs with the PM. We hypothesize that the actin cytoskeleton is a natural partner of the PM in all eukaryotic cells. In most plant cells, however, it was replaced by a tubulin‐based “cell periphery apparatus” which regulates, via still unknown mechanisms, the spatial deposition of nascent cellulosic microfibrils synthesized by PM‐associated synthase complexes. 相似文献
