An Orobanche cernua x Orobanche cumana segregating population provides insight into the regulation of germination specificity in a parasitic plant

ABSTRACT: Germination of seeds of Orobanche species requires specific chemicals exuded by host roots. A family of “divergent” KARRIKIN INSENSITIVE2 (KAI2d) genes encode proteins that recognize strigolactone (SL) class germination simulants. We explored specificity of germination stimulant detection by analyzing interspecific segregants of a cross between Orobanche cernua and O. cumana, closely related species that differ in stimulant response. O. cernua parasitizes tomato and germinates in response to the SL orobanchol, while O. cumana parasitizes sunflower and responds to dehydrocostus lactone (DCL). KAI2d genes were catalogued in parents and in segregants that showed stimulant specificity. KAI2d genes were also functionally assayed in the Arabidopsis kai2 mutant background. We identified five full-length KAI2d genes in O. cernua and eight in O. cumana. The O. cernua KAI2d2, as well as its ortholog in O. cumana, are associated with SL perception. A cluster of O. cumana KAI2d genes was genetically linked to DCL perception, although no specific receptor gene was identified by heterologous complementation. These findings support the KAI2d-mediated perception of SLs, but fall short of explaining how O. cumana perceives DCL. The ability of some O. cumana KAI2d genes to detect SLs points to the involvement of additional factors in regulating stimulant specificity.

Catabolism of strigolactones by a carboxylesterase

Project description:Strigolactones (SLs) are carotenoid-derived plant hormones that control shoot branching and communications between host plants and symbiotic fungi or root parasitic plants. Extensive studies have identified the key components participating in SL biosynthesis and signaling, whereas the catabolism or deactivation of endogenous SLs in planta remains largely unknown. Here we report that the Arabidopsis carboxylesterase 15 (AtCXE15) and its orthologues function as efficient hydrolases of SLs. We show that overexpression of AtCXE15 promotes shoot branching by dampening SL-inhibited axillary bud outgrowth. We further demonstrate that AtCXE15 could bind and efficiently hydrolyze SLs both in vitro and in planta. We also provide evidence that AtCXE15 is capable to catalyze hydrolysis of diverse SL analogues and that such CXE15-dependent catabolism of SLs is evolutionarily conserved in seed plants. These results disclose a catalytic mechanism underlying homeostatic regulation of SLs in plants, which also provides a rational approach to spatial-temporally manipulate the endogenous SLs and thus architecture of crops and ornamental plants.

Transcriptome and proteome analyses and the role of atypical calpain protein and autophagy in the spliced leader silencing pathway in Trypanosoma brucei

Project description:Under persistent ER stress, Trypanosoma brucei parasites induce the spliced leader silencing (SLS) pathway. In SLS, transcription of the SL RNA gene, the SL donor to all mRNAs, is extinguished, arresting transsplicing and leading to programmed cell death(PCD). In this study, we investigated the transcriptome following silencing of SEC63, a factor essential for protein translocation across the ER membrane, and whose silencing induces SLS. The proteome of SEC63-silenced cells was analyzed with an emphasis on SLS-specific alterations in protein expression, and modifications that do not directly result from perturbations in trans-splicing. One such protein identified is an atypical calpain SKCRP7.1/7.2. Cosilencing of SKCRP7.1/7.2 and SEC63 eliminated SLS induction due its role in translocating the PK3 kinase. This kinase initiates SLS by migrating to the nucleus and phosphorylating TRF4 leading to shut-off of SL RNA transcription. Thus, SKCRP7.1 is involved in SLS signaling and the accompanying PCD. The role of autophagy in SLS was also investigated; eliminating autophagy through VPS34 or ATG7 silencing demonstrated that autophagy is not essential for SLS induction, but is associated with PCD. Thus, this study identified factors that are used by the parasite to cope with ER stress and to induce SLS and PCD.

Critical role for very-long chain sphingolipids in invariant natural killer T cell development and homeostasis

Project description:The role of sphingolipids (SLs) in the immune system has come under increasing scrutiny recently due to the emerging contributions that these important membrane components play in regulating a variety of immunological processes. The acyl chain length of SLs appears particularly critical in determining SL function. Here we show a role for very-long acyl chain SLs (VLC-SLs) in invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell maturation in the thymus and homeostasis in the liver. Ceramide synthase 2 (CerS2) null mice, which lack VLC-SLs, were susceptible to a hepatotropic strain of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus, which is due to a reduction in the number of iNKT cells. Bone marrow chimera experiments indicated that hematopoietic-derived VLC-SLs are essential for maturation of iNKT cells in the thymus, whereas parenchymal-derived VLC-SLs are crucial for iNKT cell survival and maintenance in the liver. Our findings suggest a critical role for VLC-SL in iNKT cell physiology.

CerS2 dependent Sphingolipid - protein interactions in rat beta cell line Ins1E

Project description:To define the beta cell Sphingolipid-protein interactome, we performed a chemoproteomic screen in which a chemically modified SL precursor (photoactivatable and clickable sphingosine, pacSph) was fed to cells and rapidly incorporated into de novo synthesized SLs. Ultraviolet (UV) irradiation covalently crosslinked cellular SL-protein complexes, allowing for cell lysis under harsh conditions, pulldown and subsequent MS-based identification and quantification of SL interacting proteins. CrispR/Cas9 knockout of the SL specific catabolic enzyme Sgpl1 ensured that only SLs are labelled with pacSph. Furthermore, stable isotope labelling allowed direct comparison of SBPs in several cell lines in the same MS run.

Expression data of germinating Arabidopsis seeds

Project description:In depth temporal profiling of transcript changes at 10 time points during germination in Arabidopsis seed was carried out. The time course utilised, encompassed seed maturation, stratification, germination and post-germination and provided a global investigation into the tightly regulated, phasic changes that define seed germination. A previously unidentified transient expression pattern was identified for a group of genes, whereby a significant rise in abundance was observed at the end of stratification and significantly lower expression observed up to 6 hours later. Total RNA extraction was carried out on 80 mg of Arabidopsis seeds at 10 time points during germination in triplicate. The time points selected were: freshly harvested seed (H), seeds following 15 days of ripening (0 h), seeds after; 1 h of stratification (1 h S), 12 h of stratification (12 h S), 48 h of stratification (48 h S), followed by seed collected 1 hour into the light (1 h SL), 6 hours into the light (6 h SL), 12 hours into the light (12 h SL), 24 hours into the light (24 h SL) and 48 hours into the light (48 h SL).

Combining deep-sequencing, proteomics, phosphoproteomics and functional screens to discover novel regulators of sphingolipids homeostasis.

Project description:Sphingolipids (SLs) are essential components of cell membranes and broad-range bioactive signaling molecules. SL levels must be tightly regulated as imbalances affect cellular function and contribute to pathologies ranging from neurodegenerative and metabolic disorders to cancer and aging. Deciphering how SL homeostasis is maintained and uncovering new regulators are two key aspects for understanding lipid biology and defining opportunities for therapeutic interventions. Here we combine multiple systematic technologies to identify the changes of the transcriptome, proteome and phosphoproteome in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae upon SL depletion by myriocin. Surprisingly we find that SL depletion triggers only small changes on the expression and steady-state levels of regulatory proteins of SL homeostasis. However dramatic regulation occurs at level of the phosphoproteome suggesting that maintaining SL homeostasis demands rapid responses that cannot occur at the transcriptional level. To discover which of the phosphoproteomic changes are required for the cell’s first-line response to SL depletion and which are the bi-product of the cellular changes occurring following SL alterations, we combined the results with systematic growth screens for genes required during growth in myriocin when either mutated or overexpressed. By following the rate of SL biosynthesis in those candidates that are both essential for growth during myriocin and are phosphorylated in response to the drug we uncovered new regulators of SL homeostasis.

Unraveling the MAX2 Protein Network in Arabidopsis thaliana: Identification of the Protein Phosphatase PAPP5 as a Novel MAX2 Interactor

Project description:The F-box protein MORE AXILLARY GROWTH 2 (MAX2) is a central component in the signaling cascade of strigolactones (SLs) as well as of the smoke derived karrikins (KARs) and the so far unknown endogenous KAI2 ligand (KL). The two groups of molecules are involved in overlapping and unique developmental processes, and signal-specific outcomes are attributed to perception by the paralogous α/β-hydrolases DWARF14 (D14) for SL and KARRIKIN INSENSITIVE 2/ HYPOSENSITIVE TO LIGHT (KAI2/HTL) for KAR/KL. Additionally, depending on which receptor is activated, specific members of the SUPPRESSOR OF MAX2 1 (SMAX1) – LIKE (SMXL) 6, 7, 8 clade control KAR/KL and SL responses respectively. As proteins that function in the same signal transduction pathway often occur in large protein complexes, we aimed at discovering new players of the MAX2, D14 and KAI2 protein network by tandem affinity purification using Arabidopsis cell cultures. When using MAX2 as a bait, various proteins were co-purified among which general components of the Skp1-Cullin-F-box complex and members of the CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC 9 signalosome. Here, we report the identification of a novel interactor of MAX2, a type 5 serine/threonine protein phosphatase, designated PHYTOCHROME-ASSOCIATED PROTEIN PHOSPHATASE 5 (PAPP5). Quantitative affinity purification pointed at PAPP5 as being more present in KAI2 rather than D14 protein complexes. In agreement, mutant analysis suggests that PAPP5 modulates KAR/KL-dependent seed germination in suboptimal conditions and seedling development. Additionally, PAPP5 was found to dephosphorylate MAX2 in vivo independent of the synthetic strigolactone analog, rac-GR24. Together, by analyzing the protein complexes to which MAX2, D14 and KAI2 belong, we revealed a new MAX2 interactor that might act through dephosphorylating MAX2 to control mainly KAR/KL signaling.

Strigolactone and cytokinin act antagonistically in regulating rice mesocotyl elongation in darkness

Project description:Strigolactones have been defined as a new group of phytohormones that regulate shoot branching. Tthe phenotypes of strigolacton-related rice (Oryza sativa) dwarf (d) mutants demonstrated that SLs inhibit mesocotyl elongation by controlling cell division. Moreover, the trans-zeatin, one of active cytokinins, content of mesocotyls was increased in the SL-deficient d10-1 and SL-insensitive d14-1 mutants. To examine if there are genes related to cytokinin-biosynthesis or -degradation among the strigolactone-responsive genes expressed in the mesocotyl, we carried out microarray analyses using d10-1, d14-1 and the wild-type grown under dark conditions, with or without pretreatment of a synthetic strigolactone analog, GR24.
