Transcriptional responses of wild-type and zin1 mutant Arabidopsis plants to infection with Pseudomonas syringae

ABSTRACT: Phytopathogens use secreted effector proteins to suppress host immunity and promote pathogen virulence, and there is increasing evidence that the host-pathogen interactome comprises a complex network. In an effort to identify novel interactors of the Pseudomonas syringae effector HopZ1a, we performed a yeast two-hybrid screen that identified a previously uncharacterized Arabidopsis protein that we designate HopZ1a Interactor 1 (ZIN1). Additional analyses in yeast and in planta revealed that ZIN1 also interacts with several other P. syringae effectors. We show that an Arabidopsis loss-of-function zin1 mutant is less susceptible to infection by certain strains of P. syringae, while overexpression of ZIN1 results in enhanced susceptibility. Functionally, ZIN1 exhibits topoisomerase-like activity in vitro. Transcriptional profiling of wild-type and zin1 Arabidopsis plants inoculated with P. syringae indicated that ZIN1 regulates a wide range of pathogen-responsive biological processes, although the list of genes more highly expressed in zin1 versus wild-type plants was particularly enriched for ribosomal protein genes. Altogether, these data illuminate ZIN1 as a potential susceptibility hub that interacts with multiple effectors to influence the outcome of plant-microbe interactions.

Transcriptional responses of wild-type and abr1 mutant Arabidopsis plants to infection with Pseudomonas syringae

Project description:Pathogens secrete effector proteins into host cells in order to suppress host immunity and promote pathogen virulence, although many features at the molecular interface of host-pathogen interactions remain to be characterized. In a yeast two-hybrid assay, we found that the Pseudomonas syringae effector HopZ1a interacts with the Arabidopsis transcriptional regulator Abscisic Acid Repressor 1 (ABR1). Further analysis revealed that ABR1 interacts with multiple P. syringae effectors, suggesting that it may be targeted as a susceptibility hub. Indeed, loss-of-function abr1 mutants exhibit reduced susceptibility to a number of P. syringae strains. The ABR1 protein comprises a conserved APETALA2 (AP2) domain flanked by long regions of predicted structural disorder. We verified the DNA-binding activity of the AP2 domain and demonstrated that the disordered domains act redundantly to enhance DNA binding and to facilitate transcriptional activation by ABR1. Finally, we compared gene expression profiles from wild-type and abr1 plants following inoculation with P. syringae, which suggested that the reduced susceptibility of abr1 mutants is due to the loss of a virulence target rather than an enhanced immune response. These data highlight ABR1 as a functionally important component at the host-pathogen interface.

Comparative transcriptome profiling of transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana lines expressing the Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis candidate effector HaRxL106 and knock-out mutants of HaRxL106-interacting host proteins

Project description:To prevent activation of plant innate immunity the oomycete pathogen Hyaloperonospora arabidopsidis translocates effector proteins into infected cells of its host Arabidopsis thaliana. We noticed that some H. arabidopsidis effectors, when over-expressed in A. thaliana, render the plant more susceptible to infection by biotrophic pathogens (Fabro et al., 2011, PubMed PMID: 22072967). Here we performed transcriptome profiling of a representative transgenic line constitutively expressing H. arabidopsidis effector HaRxL106. We compared the transcriptomes of A. thaliana wild-type (Col-0) plants and an isogenic line expressing HaRxL106 before pathogen challenge and 24 h after infection with the compatible bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000. HaRxL106 interacts with several Arabidopsis proteins (Mukhtar et al., 2011, PubMed PMID: 21798943; Wirthmueller et al., 2015, PubMed PMID: 25284001). To test whether the HaRxL106-interacting A. thaliana proteins MODIFIER OF SNC1, 6 (MOS6), 6B-INTERACTING PROTEIN 1-LIKE 1 (ASIL1) or RADICAL-INDUCED CELL DEATH1 (RCD1) are altered in their transcriptional response to a biotrophic pathogen we performed transcriptome profiling of mos6-1, asil1-1 and rcd1-1 mutants before and 24 h after infection with P. syringae pv. tomato DC3000.

affy_syringae_malaga_athaliana-Role of different proteases in plant defence

Project description: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.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae transcriptome response to overexpression of the Phytophthora sojae Avh172 effector

Project description:The oomycete pathogen Phytophthora sojae causes root rot of soybean. During infection, the pathogen is thought to deliver dozens, if not hundreds, of effector proteins into the host to manipulate intracellular systems. Although these pathogen proteins often exhibit similar N-terminal delivery domains, the remaining effector region is rarely homologous to known protein domains, making it difficult to predict its biochemical function during infection. As a complement to studies in the natural host, Saccharomyces cerevisiae has been successfully used as a model system to explore the biochemical function of individual pathogen effectors. The presumption is that many effectors target conserved eukaryotic pathways in the host and consequently the expression of effectors in yeast will confer corresponding phenotypes. Indeed, putative effector functions identified using yeast functional genomic approaches have subsequently been validated in the natural host. Over-expression of the Phytophthora sojae effector Avh172 (PsAvh172) inhibits the growth of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, suggesting that the effector targets a biological pathway conserved with plants. In this study, the transcriptomes of yeast expressing PsAvh172 or an empty vector were compared to examine the global transcriptional response, in hopes of discerning the effectors biochemical target.

Transcriptional response of Arabidopsis sweet11/sweet12 double mutants upon Colletotrichum higginsianum infection

Project description:In compatible interactions, biotrophic microbial phytopathogens rely on the supply of carbon and nitrogen assimilates by the colonized host tissue. Successful biotrophs need to reprogram host metabolism, which also involves the stimulation of assimilate export from living host cells into the plant-pathogen interface at the infection site. In rice and cassava, SWEET sucrose transporters, are induced by bacterial TAL (transcriptional activator-like) effectors to establish compatibility. A pathogen-specific transcriptional induction of SWEET transporters has also been observed in Arabidopsis leaves upon microbial challenge. Here, we have assessed the question, whether the phloem localized AtSWEET11 and AtSWEET12 transporters represent susceptibility factors in the interaction of Arabidopsis with the fungal hemibiotroph Colletotrichum higginsianum (Ch). Compared to wild type, sweet11/sweet12 double mutants exhibited priming of the SA pathway in mock conditions. To investigate transcriptional changes in C. higgsinanum infected leaves, five-week old Arabidopsis plants were spray infected with 2 Mio. conidia/ ml 1h before lights off and fully expanded leaves of wild type Col-0 and the sweet11/sweet12 double mutant were harvested in three situations: 1) immediately before treatment, 2) from mock treated plants (sprayed with water) at 2.5 days post treatment and 3) from C. higginsianum inoculated leaves during biotrophic colonization at 2.5 days post treatment

Ustilago maydis effector Jsi1 interacts with Topless corepressor, hijacking plant JA/ET signaling

Project description:• Ustilago maydis (U. maydis) is the causal agent of maize smut disease. During the colonization process, the fungus secretes effector proteins which suppress immune responses and redirect the host metabolism in favor of the pathogen. As effectors play a critical role during plant colonization, their identification and functional characterization is essential to understanding biotrophy and disease. • Using biochemical, molecular, and transcriptomic techniques, we performed a functional characterization of the U. maydis effector Jasmonate/Ethylene signaling inducer 1 (Jsi1). • Jsi1 interacts with several members of the plant co‐repressor family Topless/Topless related (TPL/TPR). Jsi1 expression in Zea mays (Z. mays) and Arabidopsis thaliana (A. thaliana) leads to transcriptional induction of the ethylene response factor (ERF) branch of the jasmonate/ethylene (JA/ET) signaling pathway. In A. thaliana, activation of the ERF‐branch leads to biotrophic susceptibility. Jsi1 likely activates the ERF‐branch via an EAR motif, which resembles EAR motifs from plant ERF transcription factors, that interacts with TPL/TPR proteins. • EAR motif‐containing effector candidates were identified from different fungal species including Magnaporthe oryzae, Sporisorium scitamineum, and Sporisorium reilianum. Interaction between plant TPL proteins and these effector candidates from biotrophic and hemibiotrophic fungi indicates the convergent evolution of effectors modulating the TPL/TPR co‐repressor hub.

The thiolation modification of tRNA is essential for plant immunity

Project description:Plants have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to regulate gene expression to activate immune responses against pathogen infections. However, how the translation system contributes to plant immunity is largely unknown. The evolutionarily conserved thiolation modification of tRNA ensures efficient decoding during translation. Here we show that tRNA thiolation is required for plant immunity in Arabidopsis. The Arabidopsis cgb mutant is hyper-susceptible to the pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. CGB encodes ROL5, a homolog of yeast NCS6 required for tRNA thiolation. ROL5 physically interacts with CTU2, a homolog of yeast NCS2. Mutations in either ROL5 or CTU2 result in loss of tRNA thiolation. Further analyses reveal that tRNA thiolation is required for both transcriptional reprogramming and translational reprogramming during immune responses. The translation efficiency of immune-related proteins reduces when tRNA thiolation is absent. Our study not only uncovers a new biological function of tRNA thiolation but also reveals a new mechanism for plant immunity.
