Epigenetic Regulation of Plant Tolerance to Salt Stress by Histone Acetyltransferase GsMYST1 From Wild Soybean.

ABSTRACT: Salt stress is one of the most devastating environmental factors threatening soybean growth and yield. However, the molecular link between salt stress and epigenetics has not been well-elucidated in soybean. In this study, from the wild soybean cDNA library, we isolated a GsSnRK1 kinase interacting protein (GsMSTY1) which is phylogenetically homologous with histone acetyltransferase MYST family with unknown function. GsMSTY1 gene is dominantly expressed in wild soybean roots and is highly responsive to abiotic stresses. GsMYST1 was able to be phosphorylated at the Ser44 site by GsSnRK1 and demonstrated in vivo acetyltransferase activity in transgenic soybean roots revealed by an anti-H4ace antibody. A transcription factor protein GsNAC83 was identified to interact with both G
