Project description:The first described feedback loop of the Arabidopsis circadian clock is based on reciprocal regulation between TOC1 and CCA1/LHY. CCA1 and LHY are MYB transcription factors that bind directly to the TOC1 promoter to negatively regulate its expression. Conversely, the activity of TOC1 has remained less well characterized. Genetic data supports that TOC1 is necessary for the reactivation of CCA1/LHY, but there is little description of its biochemical function. Here we show that TOC1 occupies specific genomic regions in the CCA1 and LHY promoters. Purified TOC1 binds directly to DNA through its CCT domain, which is similar to known DNA binding domains. Chemical induction and transient overexpression of TOC1 in Arabidopsis seedlings cause repression of CCA1/LHY expression demonstrating that TOC1 can repress direct targets, and mutation or deletion of the CCT domain prevents this repression showing that DNA binding is necessary for TOC1 action. Furthermore, we use the Gal4/UAS system in Arabidopsis to show that TOC1 acts as a general transcriptional repressor, and that repression activity is in the Pseudoreceiver (PR) domain of the protein. To identify the genes regulated by TOC1 on a genomic scale, we couple TOC1 chemical induction with microarray analysis and identify new potential TOC1 targets and output pathways. Together these results define the biochemical action of the core clock protein TOC1 and refine our perspective on how plant clocks function.

Project description:The daily pattern of temporal gene expression is regulated by the circadian clock system. Under constant environmental conditions, aging is associated with a shortening of the endogenous period of circadian rhythms in Arabidopsis. This study investigated to investigate how aging influences the waveforms of rhythmic patterns of gene expression under light/dark cycles. The waveforms of the daily cycling circadian clock showed significant warping in aged leaves, which shifted their expression pattern. Transcriptomic analysis revealed that the number of daily cycling genes in aged leaves was reduced by more than half. Furthermore, in aged plants, the expression schedule of cycling genes in both young and old leaves warped. Circadian clock mutants, including toc1, which did not exhibit age-dependent warping, had significantly altered warping patterns.

of TOC1 expression by ABA signalling, to their previous model

Abstract:
BACKGROUND: 24-hour biological clocks are intimately
connected to the cellular signalling network, which complicates
the analysis of clock mechanisms. The transcriptional regulator
TOC1 (TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION 1) is a founding component of
the gene circuit in the plant circadian clock. Recent results
show that TOC1 suppresses transcription of multiple target
genes within the clock circuit, far beyond its
previously-described regulation of the morning transcription
factors LHY (LATE ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL) and CCA1 (CIRCADIAN
CLOCK ASSOCIATED 1). It is unclear how this pervasive effect of
TOC1 affects the dynamics of the clock and its outputs. TOC1
also appears to function in a nested feedback loop that
includes signalling by the plant hormone Abscisic Acid (ABA),
which is upregulated by abiotic stresses, such as drought. ABA
treatments both alter TOC1 levels and affect the clock's timing
behaviour. Conversely, the clock rhythmically modulates
physiological processes induced by ABA, such as the closing of
stomata in the leaf epidermis. In order to understand the
dynamics of the clock and its outputs under changing
environmental conditions, the reciprocal interactions between
the clock and other signalling pathways must be integrated.
RESULTS: We extended the mathematical model of the plant clock
gene circuit by incorporating the repression of multiple clock
genes by TOC1, observed experimentally. The revised model more
accurately matches the data on the clock's molecular profiles
and timing behaviour, explaining the clock's responses in TOC1
over-expression and toc1 mutant plants. A simplified
representation of ABA signalling allowed us to investigate the
interactions of ABA and circadian pathways. Increased ABA
levels lengthen the free-running period of the clock,
consistent with the experimental data. Adding stomatal closure
to the model, as a key ABA- and clock-regulated downstream
process allowed to describe TOC1 effects on the rhythmic gating
of stomatal closure. CONCLUSIONS: The integrated model of the
circadian clock circuit and ABA-regulated environmental sensing
allowed us to explain multiple experimental observations on the
timing and stomatal responses to genetic and environmental
perturbations. These results crystallise a new role of TOC1 as
an environmental sensor, which both affects the pace of the
central oscillator and modulates the kinetics of downstream
processes.

Project description:In many organisms, the circadian clock is composed of functionally coupled morning and evening oscillators that regulate the bouts of dawn and dusk activity. In Arabidopsis, oscillator coupling relies on a core loop in which the evening oscillator component TOC1 was proposed to activate a subset of morning-expressed oscillator genes. Our systems-biological approach overturns the current view of the Arabidopsis circadian clock showing that TOC1 does not function as an activator but as a timely-controlled general repressor of morning and evening oscillator components. Repression occurs through rhythmic binding to the promoters of all oscillator genes, suggesting a previously unexpected direct connection between the morning and evening loops. Examination of TOC1 genome-wide binding using TOC1 Minigene (TMG) seedlings expressing the genomic fragment of TOC1 fused to the Yellow Fluorescent Protein in a toc1-2 mutant background (TMG-YFP/toc1-2 seedlings) grown under LD cycles (12h light:12h dark).

Project description:The plant circadian clock exerts a critical role in the regulation of multiple biological processes including responses to biotic and abiotic stresses. It is estimated that the clock regulates up to 80% of the transcriptome in Arabidopsis, thus understanding the molecular mechanisms that control this rhythmic transcriptome requires identification of the targets of each clock component. The Arabidopsis core clock is partially comprised of a transcriptional regulatory loop between the MYB domain containing transcription factors CIRCADIAN CLOCK ASSOCIATED1 (CCA1) and LATE ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL (LHY), and TIMING OF CAB EXPRESSION1 (TOC1). As a key component of the clock, CCA1 is able to initiate and set the phase of clock-controlled rhythms. CCA1 regulates the transcription of several genes by directly binding to the evening element (EE) motif primarily found in the promoters of evening expressed genes. Using a genome-wide approach we have identified direct targets of CCA1 in plants grown in constant (LL) and driven conditions (LD). These CCA1 targets are enriched for a myriad of biological processes and stress responses. While many of these target genes are evening phased and contain the EE in their promoter regions, a significant subset is morning phased and lack an EE. Furthermore, several CCA1 targets do not cycle in either LL or LD or both. Expression analysis in CCA1 overexpressing plants confirms CCA1 regulation of analyzed targets. Our results emphasize an expanded role for the circadian clock in regulation of key pathways in Arabidopsis, and provide a comprehensive and solid resource for future functional studies.

Project description:Most higher organisms, including plants and animals, have developed a time-keeping mechanism that allows them to anticipate daily fluctuations of environmental parameters such as light and temperature. This circadian clock efficiently coordinates plant growth and metabolism with respect to time-of-day by producing self-sustained rhythms of gene expression with an approximately 24-hour period. The importance of these rhythms has in fact been demonstrated in both phytoplankton and higher plants: organisms that have an internal clock period matched to the external environment possess a competitive advantage over those that do not. We used microarrays to identify circadian-regulated genes of Arabidopsis thaliana to elucidate how the clock provides an adaptive advantage by understanding how the clock regulates outputs and determining which pathways and processes may be under circadian control. Experiment Overall Design: Groups of Arabidopsis seedlings were grown in light/dark cycles for 7 d before, transferred to constant light, and after 24 h in constant light 12 samples were harvested at 4-h intervals over the next 44 h for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
