Oxygen-dependent proteolysis regulates the stability of angiosperm Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 subunit VERNALIZATION2

ABSTRACT: The polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) regulates epigenetic gene repression in eukaryotes. Mechanisms controlling its developmental specificity and signal-responsiveness are poorly understood. Here, we identify an oxygen-sensitive N-terminal (N-) degron in the plant PRC2 subunit VERNALIZATION(VRN)2, a homolog of animal Su(z)12, that promotes its degradation via the N-end rule pathway. We provide evidence that this N-degron arose early during angiosperm evolution via gene duplication and N-terminal truncation, facilitating expansion of PRC2 function in flowering plants. We show that proteolysis via the N-end rule pathway prevents ectopic VRN2 accumulation, and that hypoxia and long-term cold exposure lead to increased VRN2 abundance, which we propose may be due to inhibition of VRN2 turnover via its N-degron. Furthermore, we identify an overlap in the transcriptional responses to hypoxia and prolonged cold, and show that VRN2 promotes tolerance to hypoxia. Our work reveals a mechanism for post-translational regulation of VRN2 stability that could potentially link environmental inputs to the epigenetic control of plant development.

Quantitative N-terminome of N-end rule mutant in Arabidopsis

Project description:According to the /N-end rule pathway, proteins with basic N-termini are targeted for degradation by the Arabidopsis thaliana E3 ligase, PROTEOLYSIS6 (PRT6). Here, we undertook a quantitative proteomics study of N-end rule mutant prt6, to investigate the impact of this pathway on the etiolated seedling. Isolation of N-terminal peptides using terminal amine isotope labelling of samples (TAILS) combined with Tandem mass tag (TMT) identified over 3000 unique N-termini. Trypsin and GluC have advantage of identification of Acetylated or neo-peptides respectively. Seed storage proteins and Cysteine proteins actives are differentially regulated in abundance in the prt6 mutants, which are represent downstream targets of transcription factors known to be N-end rule substrates.

Distinct branches of the N-end rule pathway modulate the plant immune response

Project description:The N-end rule pathway is a highly conserved constituent of the ubiquitin proteasome system, though little information exists regarding biological roles. Here we show that the cysteine (Cys-) and glutamine (Gln)-specific amino-terminal (Nt)-amidase NTAQ1 branches are both components of the plant immune system, through the E3 ligase PROTEOLYSIS (PRT)6. Both ntaq1 and prt6 mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana showed enhanced basal resistance to the hemibiotroph pathogen Pseudomonas syringae, associated with constitutive expression of defence-response genes and activation of synthesis pathway of the phytoalexin camalexin. We observed a role in stomatal defence for the Nt-Cys substrates ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR VII transcription factors. Transgenic barley lines with reduced HvPRT6 expression showed enhanced resistance against Ps japonica and Blumeria graminis f. sp. Hordei, indicating a conserved role of the pathway in immunity. These data demonstrate that different branches of the N-end rule pathway act at distinct levels of the plant immune response.

Oxygen-sensing through ERFVII action and modulation in Arabidopsis thaliana

Project description:Oxygen is a key signalling component of plant biology, and whilst an oxygen-sensing mechanism was previously described in Arabidopsis thaliana, key features of the associated PCO N-degron pathway and Group VII ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR (ERFVII) transcription factor substrates remain unknown. We demonstrate that ERFVIIs show non-autonomous activation of root hypoxia tolerance, and are essential for root development and survival under oxygen limiting conditions in the soil. We determine the combined effects of ERFVIIs in controlling genome expression and define genetic and environmental components required for proteasome-dependent oxygen-regulated stability of ERFVIIs through the PCO N-degron pathway. Using a plant extract, unexpected amino-terminal cysteine sulphonic acid oxidation level of ERFVIIs was observed, suggesting a requirement for additional enzymatic activity within the pathway. Our results provide a holistic understanding of the properties, functions and readouts of this oxygen-sensing mechanism defined through its role in modulating ERFVII stability.

Quantitative proteomics analysis of the Arg/N-end rule pathway of targeted degradation in Arabidopsis roots

Project description:According to the Arg/N-end rule pathway, proteins with basic N-termini are targeted for degradation by the Arabidopsis thaliana E3 ligase, PROTEOLYSIS6 (PRT6). Proteins can also become PRT6 substrates following post-translational arginylation by arginyltransferases ATE1 and 2. Here, we undertook a quantitative proteomics study of Arg/N-end rule mutants, ate1/2 and prt6, to investigate the impact of this pathway on the root proteome. Tandem mass tag (TMT) labelling identified a small number of proteins with increased abundance in the mutants, some of which represent downstream targets of transcription factors known to be N-end rule substrates. Isolation of N-terminal peptides using terminal amine isotope labelling of samples (TAILS) combined with triple dimethyl labelling identified 1465 unique N-termini. Stabilising residues were over-represented among the free neo-N-termini, but destabilising residues were not markedly enriched in N-end rule mutants. The majority of free neo-N-termini were revealed following cleavage of organellar targeting signals, thus compartmentation may account in part for the presence of destabilising residues in the wild type N-terminome. Our data suggest that PRT6 does not have a marked impact on the global proteome of Arabidopsis roots and is likely involved in the controlled degradation of relatively few regulatory proteins.

Transcript profiling of UBIproPtMYB14 and CADproPtMYB14 in transgenic White spruce plantlets

Project description:Transcription factors play a fundamental role in plants by orchestrating temporal and spatial gene expression in response to environmental stimuli. Several R2R3-MYB genes of the Arabidopsis subgroup 4 (Sg4) share a C-terminal EAR motif signature recently linked to stress response in angiosperm plants. It is reported here that nearly all Sg4 MYB genes in the conifer trees Picea glauca (white spruce) and Pinus taeda (loblolly pine) form a monophyletic clade (Sg4C) that expanded following the split of gymnosperm and angiosperm lineages. Deeper sequencing in P. glauca identified 10 distinct Sg4C sequences, indicating over-represention of Sg4 sequences compared with angiosperms such as Arabidopsis, Oryza, Vitis, and Populus. The Sg4C MYBs share the EAR motif core. Many of them had stress-responsive transcript profiles after wounding, jasmonic acid (JA) treatment, or exposure to cold in P. glauca and P. taeda, with MYB14 transcripts accumulating most strongly and rapidly. Functional characterization was initiated by expressing the P. taeda MYB14 (PtMYB14) gene in transgenic P. glauca plantlets with a tissue-preferential promoter (cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase) and a ubiquitous gene promoter (ubiquitin). Histological, metabolite, and transcript (microarray and targeted quantitiative real-time PCR) analyses of PtMYB14 transgenics, coupled with mechanical wounding and JA application experiments on wild-type plantlets, allowed identification of PtMYB14 as a putative regulator of an isoprenoid-oriented response that leads to the accumulation of sesquiterpene in conifers. Data further suggested that PtMYB14 may contribute to a broad defence response implicating flavonoids. This study also addresses the potential involvement of closely related Sg4C sequences in stress responses and plant evolution.

RNA-seq of total and nascent RNA after depletion of Mpe1

Project description:To test the role of Mpe1 in transcription termination we inserted a mini-auxin induced degron (mAID) at the C-terminal end of the endogenous MPE1 locus in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We treated Mpe1-mAID cells (JRY101) or wild type cells (WT, YMK728) with 1 mM auxin for 30 minutes and labeled the nascent RNA with 4-thiouracil (4tU) for 6 minutes. The nascent RNA fraction was prepared by biotinylating the 4tU-labeled RNA followed purification with streptavidin beads. Nascent and total RNA fractions were depleted of ribosomal RNA and strand-specific libraries prepared. Libraries were single-end sequenced using an Ilummina HiSeq 4000 instrument.

bli-1 12 DAG continuous light grown whole seedlings analyzed on a 44k single color Agilent microarray

Project description:Polycomb group (PcG) proteins are key epigenetic regulators of development. The highly conserved Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) represses thousands of target genes by trimethylating H3K27 (H3K27me3). Plant specific PcG components and functions are largely unknown, however, we previously identified the plant-specific protein BLISTER (BLI) as a PRC2 interactor. BLI regulates PcG target genes and promotes cold stress resistance. To further understand the function of BLI, we analyzed the transcriptional profile of bli‑1 mutants. The goal of this experiment was to examine the transcriptional profile of bli-1 seedlings and compare it to the wild type Col-0.

Expression pattern in HaHB1 overexpressor plants under normal growth conditions

Project description:Plants deal with cold temperatures via different signal transduction pathways. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms by which HaHB1 conferred tolerance to cold temperatures, we performed an exploratory transcriptome analysis comparing RNAs of 3-week-old transgenic and WT plants. Several transcripts encoding glucanases and chitinases were induced. Notably, there was not a considerable overlap with CBF regulon genes previously described in cold tolerance molecular mechanism. We propose that HaHB1 is involved in plant cold tolerance via the induction of proteins able to stabilize cell membranes and inhibit ice growth.
