Abstract: | Plant peroxisomes have the capacity to generate different reactive oxygen and nitrogen species(ROS and RNS),such as H_2O_2,superoxide radical(O_2~-),nitric oxide and peroxynitrite(ONOO~-).These organelles have an active nitrooxidative metabolism which can be exacerbated by adverse stress conditions.Hydrogen sulfide(H_2S)is a new signaling gasotransmitter which can mediate the posttranslational modification(PTM)persulfidation.We used Arabidopsis thaliana transgenic seedlings expressing cyan fluorescent protein(CFP)fused to a canonical peroxisome targeting signal 1(PTS1)to visualize peroxisomes in living cells,as well as a specific fluorescent probe which showed that peroxisomes contain H_2S.H_2S was also detected in chloroplasts under glyphosate-induced oxidative stress conditions.Peroxisomal enzyme activities,including catalase,photorespiratory H_2O_2-generating glycolate oxidase(GOX)and hydroxypyruvate reductase(HPR),were assayed in vitro with a H_2S donor.In line with the persulfidation of this enzyme,catalase activity declined significantly in the presence of the H_2S donor.To corroborate the inhibitory effect of H_2S on catalase activity,we also assayed pure catalase from bovine liver and pepper fruit-enriched samples,in which catalase activity was inhibited.Taken together,these data provide evidence of the presence of H_2S in plant peroxisomes which appears to regulate catalase activity and,consequently,the peroxisomal H_2O_2 metabolism. |
