Affy_syringae_malaga_athaliana-Role of different proteases in plant defence

ABSTRACT: affy_syringae_malaga_athaliana - affy_syringae_malaga_athaliana - - Pseudomonas syringae is a plant pathogenic bacterium that relies on a type III secretion system (T3SS) to cause disease in susceptible hosts and to trigger defence in resistant plants. The T3SS translocates effector proteins directly inside the plant cell. Some P. syringae pathovars translocate the effector HopZ1a, which is recognized in Arabidopsis, triggering the hypersensitive response (HR). This resistance does not depend on the usual defence pathways involved in resistance against other avirulence effectors, so it would be very helpful to know the transcriptomic events that take place in the context of a hypersensitive response triggered by HopZ1a. ULP genes codifies for plant SUMO-proteases. Recent studies by our group revealed that they could be involved in plant defense against microorganisms.-- We infiltrated Arabidopsis thaliana ecotype Columbia wild type with 10mM MgCl2 (as mock inoculation), the virulent pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pto), Pto expressing the effector HopZ1a and Pto expressing a HopZ1a derivative carrying a point mutation in a residue essential for the cystein-protease activity. We also grew ulp1c/ulp1d mutant plants to analyze them either without treatment or inoculated with MgCl2 (as mock) and Pto wt.

Project description:Expression profiles of 22 reference Arabidopsis immunity mutants were collected using the Arabidopsis Pathoarray 464_001 (GPL3638) in order to build a network model predicting the Arabidopsis immune signaling network. Biological signaling processes may be mediated by complex networks in which network components and network sectors interact with each other in complex ways. Studies of complex networks benefit from approaches in which the roles of individual components are considered in the context of the network. The plant immune signaling network, which controls inducible responses to pathogen attack, is such a complex network. Here, we demonstrate that use of mRNA profiling to collect and analyze detailed descriptions of changes in the network state resulting from specific network perturbations is a powerful and economical strategy to elucidate regulatory relationships among the components of a complex signaling network. Specifically, we studied the Arabidopsis immune signaling network upon challenge with a strain of the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae expressing the effector protein AvrRpt2 (Pto DC3000 AvrRpt2). This bacterial strain feeds multiple inputs into the signaling network, allowing many parts of the network to be activated at once. mRNA profiles of 22 Arabidopsis immunity mutants and wild type were collected 6 hours after inoculation with the Pto DC3000 AvrRpt2 and used as detailed descriptions of the network states resulting from specific genetic perturbations. Regulatory relationships among the genes corresponding to the mutations were inferred by recursively applying a non-linear dimensionality reduction procedure to the mRNA profile data. The resulting network model accurately predicted 22 of 23 regulatory relationships reported in the literature, suggesting that predictions of novel regulatory relationships are also accurate. The network model revealed two striking features: (i) the components of the network are highly interconnected; (ii) negative regulatory relationships are common between signaling sectors. One case of a novel negative regulatory relationship, between the early microbe-associated molecular pattern (MAMP)-activated sector and the salicylic acid (SA)-mediated sector, was further validated. We propose that prevalent negative regulatory relationships among the signaling sectors make the plant immune signaling network a "sector-switching" network, which effectively balances two apparently conflicting demands, robustness against pathogenic perturbations and moderation of negative impacts of immune responses on plant fitness. Keywords: Responses of reference Arabidopsis immunity mutants to Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000 carrying avrRpt2 This experiment consists of two (group00) or three (group01-04) biological replicates of each genotype (total 25 genotypes [3 are multiple mutants, which were removed for the network modeling, but were used for normalization]). For each genotype, two leaves per plant were pooled from three pots to prepare total RNA.

Project description:In the absence of adaptive immunity displayed by animals, plants respond locally to biotic challenge via inducible basal defense networks activated through recognition and response toconserved pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). In addition, immunity can be induced in tissues remote from infection sites via systemic acquired resistance (SAR), initiated following gene-for-gene recognition between plant resistance proteins and microbial effectors.The nature of the mobile signal and remotely activated networks responsible for establishing SAR remain unclear. Here we show that despite the absence of PAMP contact, systemically responding leaves rapidly activate a SAR transcriptional signature with strong similarity to local basal defense. Jasmonates have previously been implicated in systemic signalling in response to wounding and plant herbivory but not SAR. We present several lines of evidence that suggest jasmonates may also be central to SAR. Jasmonic acid (JA) rapidly accumulates in phloem exudates of leaves challenged with an avirulent strain of Pseudomonas syringae. In systemically responding leaves transcripts associated with jasmonate biosynthesis are upregulated and JA increases transiently. SAR can be mimicked by foliar JA application and is abrogated in mutants impaired in jasmonate synthesis or response. We conclude that, jasmonate signalling appears to mediate long-distance information transmission. Moreover, the systemic transcriptional response shares extraordinary overlap with local herbivory and wounding responses, indicating that jasmonates may be central to an evolutionarily conserved signalling network, which decodes multiple abiotic and biotic stress signals.
