Project description:Regulation of plant DNA methylation by UV-B light in Arabidopsis
| PRJNA549508 | ENA
Project description:Plants use sunlight as a source of energy for photosynthesis but also as an important environmental cue to regulate growth, development and light acclimation. Wavelengths in the UV-B (280-315 nm) and UV-A/blue (315-500 nm) regions of the spectrum are perceived by UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8) and cryptochromes (CRY1 and CRY2), respectively. Despite recent advances in our understanding of how these photoreceptors promote photomorphogenesis, very little is known about the molecular mechanisms regulated by UVR8 and CRYs in sunlight exposed plants. Here, a factorial experiment was designed to assess the roles of UVR8 and CRYs in regulating transcriptome wide changes, hormone accumulation, and growth competence of Arabidopsis thaliana plants exposed to solar UV-B, UV-A, and blue radiation.

Project description:Ultraviolet (UV) light induces the formation of bulky UV photoproducts in the genome that interfere with DNA replication and transcription. It is well-established how human cells repair UV light-induced DNA lesions, however the signaling pathways and mechanisms that regulate transcription after exposure to UV light are poorly understood. Here, we provide a systematic view on dynamic protein phosphorylation patterns induced by UV light and uncover the dependencies of phosphorylation events on canonical DNA damage kinases and the p38 MAP kinase pathway. Notably, we demonstrate that p38 and its downstream effector kinase MK2 are responsible for one quarter of protein phosphorylation induced by UV light. We identify RNA binding proteins as primary targets and 14-3-3 family proteins as direct readers of UV light-induced, p38-MK2-dependent phosphorylation. Importantly, we demonstrate that UV light triggers rapid and dynamic phosphorylation of the negative elongation factor (NELF) complex subunit NELFE on serine 115 that mediates its binding to 14-3-3. NELFE interaction with 14-3-3 stabilizes NELFE and RNA pol II interaction on the chromatin and inhibits transcriptional elongation, thereby promoting cell survival after UV light.

Project description:UV radiation is a ubiquitous component of solar radiation that affects plant growth and development. Analysis of natural variation in response to UV radiation revealed significant differences among natural accessions of Arabidopsis thaliana. However, the genetic basis of this is to a large extent unknown. Here, we analyzed the response of Arabidopsis accessions to UV radiation stress by performing RNA-sequencing of three UV sensitive and three UV resistant accessions. The genome-wide transcriptional analysis revealed a large number of genes significantly up- or down-regulated only in sensitive or only in resistant accessions, respectively. Mutant analysis of few selected candidate genes suggested by the RNA-sequencing results indicate a connection between UV radiation stress and plant-pathogen-like defense responses.

Project description:UV-B (280-320 nm) exposure causes serious damage in plants, limiting their growth and survival, effects that are partly counteracted by repair mechanisms active in plants receiving accompanying visible radiation. Though no particular UV-B receptor has been identified to date, there is strong evidence to indicate that certain aspects of UV-B perception are receptor-mediated. Investigations of down-stream signalling events have thus far indicated broad similarities to pathogen-induced defence responses in plants. In order to identify genes in Arabidopsis that may be up- or down- regulated specifically in response to UV-B exposure and compare them to genes whose expression is altered in plants challenged by an avirulent isolate of Peronospora parasitica (downy mildew), we propose to analyse the transcriptional profiles for the following treatments: 1. UV-B Responses "A-1" Columbia (Col-0) exposed to supplementary UV-B/UV-A* with a background of low photosynthetically active radiation (PAR of 20 micromol m-2 s-1) for 1.5 photoperiods (photoperiod = 12h). [UV-B treatment] "A-2" Col-0 exposed to supplementary UV-A and low PAR for 1.5 photoperiods [control for UV-B treatment] "A-3" Col-0 exposed to visible light only (low PAR) (no UV) for 1.5 photoperiods [control for UV effects in general].* There are no pure sources of UV-B light available. 2. Pathogen Responses "A-4" Col-0 spray-inoculated with P. parasitica isolate HIKS-1 (recognised by the R-gene RPP7). After spraying, plants were kept covered in plant propagators and transferred to an 18 degreeC growth chamber. Samples for RNA extraction were taken 72h after inoculation. "A-5" The viability of spores was also checked by parallel spraying of the susceptible mutant, Col-rpp7. [pathogen treatment] "A-6" Col-0 mock treated with water, covered and transferred to an 18 degree C growth chamber, 72h prior to sampling. [control for pathogen treatment] In all experiments, we are using RNA from leaves taken at the same time of day (6 h into the 12 h photoperiod) from 4.5-week old plants grown under 12h photoperiod. All treatments were normalised against PR-1 expression levels to ensure comparability between UV-B and pathogen treatments. Due to the difficulty in distinguishing between local and systemic induced responses in UV-B treated plants, we are using RNA from whole rosettes for both the UV-B and pathogen treatment for better comparability among treatments. The degree of similarity between these two sets of transcriptional changes will complement and help interpret our experimental data on changes in resistance to pathogens in plants pre-treated with UV-B. Moreover, the data set obtained would allow for identification of UV-B specific changes in gene expression including cis-acting UV-B-responsive promoter elements.

Project description:Ultraviolet (UV) light radiation induces the formation of bulky photoproducts in the DNA that globally affect transcription and splicing. However, the signaling pathways and mechanisms that link UV light-induced DNA damage to changes in RNA metabolism remain poorly understood. Here, we employ quantitative phosphoproteomics and protein kinase inhibition to provide a systems view on protein phosphorylation patterns induced by UV light, and uncover the dependencies of phosphorylation events on the canonical DNA damage signaling by ATM/ATR and the p38 MAP kinase pathway. We identify RNA binding proteins as primary substrates and 14-3-3 as direct readers of p38-MK2-dependent phosphorylation induced by UV light. Mechanistically, we show that MK2 phosphorylates the RNA binding subunit of the NELF complex NELFE on Serine 115. NELFE phosphorylation promotes the recruitment of 14-3-3 and rapid dissociation of the NELF complex from chromatin, which is accompanied by RNA polymerase II elongation.

Project description:Ultraviolet (UV) light radiation induces the formation of bulky photoproducts in the DNA that interfere with replication and transcription. Recent studies showed that exposure of human cells to UV light globally affects transcription and alternative splicing, however, the signaling pathways and mechanisms that link UV light-induced DNA damage to RNA metabolism regulation remain poorly understood. Here, we provide a systems view on protein phosphorylation patterns induced by UV light, and uncover the dependencies of phosphorylation events on the canonical DNA damage signaling mediated by ATM/ATR or p38 MAP kinase pathway. We identify RNA binding proteins as primary targets and 14-3-3 family as direct readers of p38-MK2-dependent phosphorylation induced by UV light. Moreover, we show that MK2 phosphorylates the RNA binding subunit of the NELF complex NELFE on S115. NELFE phosphorylation promotes the recruitment of 14-3-3 and rapid dissociation of the NELF complex from chromatin that is accompanied with an increase in transcriptional elongation.
