UBA2A is a regulator of seed dormancy and DOG1 mRNA chromatin retention in Arabidopsis

ABSTRACT: Multiple factors control primary seed dormancy established during seed maturation and secondary seed dormancy established when a non-dormant seed is exposed to adverse conditions during imbibition. A key player in the control of both primary and secondary dormancy in Arabidopsis thaliana is the DOG1 gene, whose expression is extensively regulated at the transcriptional level. Despite its importance, the influence of posttranscriptional RNA processing and mRNA storage of DOG1 on the determination of dormancy depth remains elusive. We show that the UBA2A protein, a member of the hnRNP family, suppresses primary and secondary seed dormancy through the regulation of the DOG1 gene expres-sion at the posttranscriptional level. Surprisingly, single-molecule FISH, chromatin-attached RNA analysis and Pol II ChIP demonstrated that UBA2A do not control DOG1 gene transcription but rather DOG1 mRNA chromatin retention. Our study highlights chromatin retention as an important step in DOG1 gene expression regulation during dormancy establishment and shows that UBA2A like its human homolog hnRNPAB is implicated in RNA transport in the cell.

DOG1 role in BRM SWI/SNF complex mediated control of seed quality and physiology

Project description:The SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complex is involved in various aspects of plant development and stress responses. In this study, we investigated the role of BRM, a core subunit of the SWI/SNF complex, in seed physiological quality in Arabidopsis thaliana. We found that brm-3 seeds exhibited enlarged size, reduced yield, increased longevity, and enhanced secondary dormancy, but no change in primary dormancy or salt tolerance. We also showed that some of these phenotypes were dependent on DOG1, a key regulator of seed dormancy, as they were reversed in the brm-3xdog1-4 double mutant. Transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses revealed that BRM and DOG1 synergisticly modulate the expression of majority genes and metabolites. In contrast some of the transcriptomic and metabolomic changes including glutathione were depended on DOG1. Moreover, we demonstrated that BRM controls secondary dormancy directly through DOG1 by binding to and remodeling its 3’ region, where an antisense promoter of DOG1 is located. Our results suggest that BRM and DOG1 cooperate to control seed physiological quality by fine-tuning the chromatin state and metabolic status of seeds. This study provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms of seed dormancy and longevity, and the interplay between chromatin remodelling at DOG1 locus.

Gene expression in NIL-DOG1 and rdo5-1

Project description:We have identified RDO5 as a phosphatase that promotes seed dormancy, most likely independent from ABA and DOG1. To obtain an indication about the genetic and molecular pathways by which RDO5 functions, we performed a transcriptomic comparison between rdo5-1 and its wild-type NIL-DOG1 at different seed stages, using the Arabidopsis Affymetrix AGRONOMICS1 tiling microarrays

Chromatin retained MUSHER lncRNA integrates ABA and DOG1 signalling pathways to enhance Arabidopsis seeds dormancy.

Project description:Many plant lncRNAs regulate gene expression by binding to chromatin, but how they are retained at the target loci is unclear. We identify a new, chromatin-localized lncRNA - MUSHER, which activates two parallel regulatory pathways to increase Arabidopsis seed dormancy. MUSHER is upregulated in response to high temperatures, contributing to the induction of secondary dormancy. It promotes DOG1 expression by recruitment of the CPSF complex to enhance the proximal cleavage and polyadenylation at the DOG1 transcript. It also increases ABA sensitivity in seeds by activating PIR1 gene transcription. These genes, located on different chromosomes, are both bound by MUSHER, despite lacking sequence homology. The chromatin association of MUSHER enables the integration of the DOG1- and ABA pathways to adjust seed germination timing. Additionally, MUSHER and other lncRNAs interact with U1 snRNP, which is required for their chromatin localisation, revealing a novel function of U1 snRNP in plants.

Control of seed dormancy and germination by DOG1-AHG1 PP2C Phosphatase complex via binding to heme

Project description:Abscisic acid (ABA) regulates abiotic stress and developmental responses including regulation of seed dormancy to prevent seeds from germinating under unfavorable environmental conditions. ABA HYPERSENSITIVE GERMINATION1 (AHG1) encoding a type 2C protein phosphatase (PP2C) is a central negative regulator of the ABA response in germination; however, the molecular function and regulation of AHG1 remain elusive. Here we report that AHG1 interacts with DELAY OF GERMINATION1 (DOG1), which is a pivotal positive regulator in seed dormancy. DOG1 acts upstream of AHG1 and impairs the PP2C activity of AHG1 in vitro. Furthermore, DOG1 has the ability to bind heme. Binding of DOG1 to AHG1 and heme are independent processes but both are essential for DOG1 function in vivo. Our study demonstrates that AHG1 and DOG1 constitute an important regulatory system for seed dormancy and germination by integrating multiple environmental signals, in parallel with the PYL/RCAR ABA receptor-mediated regulatory system.

Promoter-pervasive transcription causes RNA polymerase II pausing to boost DOG1 expression in response to salt

Project description:Eukaryotic genomes are pervasively transcribed by RNA polymerase II. Yet, the molecular and biological implications of such a phenomenon are still largely puzzling. Here, we describe noncoding RNA transcription upstream of the Arabidopsis thaliana DOG1 gene, which governs salt stress responses and is a key regulator of seed dormancy. We find that expression of the DOG1 gene is induced by salt stress, thereby causing a delay in seed germination. We uncover extensive transcriptional activity on the promoter of the DOG1 gene, which produces a variety of lncRNAs. These lncRNAs, named PUPPIES, are co-directionally transcribed and extend into the DOG1 coding region. We show that PUPPIES RNAs respond to salt stress and boost DOG1 expression, resulting in delayed germination. This positive role of pervasive PUPPIES transcription on DOG1 gene expression is associated with augmented pausing of RNA polymerase II, slower transcription and higher transcriptional burst size. These findings highlight the positive role of upstream co-directional transcription in controlling transcriptional dynamics of downstream genes.

Dormancy heterogeneity among Arabidopsis thaliana seeds is linked to individual seed size

Project description:Production of morphologically and physiologically variable seeds is an important strategy that helps plants to survive in unpredictable natural conditions. However, the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and most agronomically essential crops yield visually homogenous seeds. Using automated phenotype analysis, we observed that in Arabidopsis small seeds tend to have higher primary and secondary dormancy levels when compared to large ones. Transcriptomic analysis revealed distinct gene expression profiles between large and small seeds. Large seeds had higher expression of translation-related genes implicated in germination competence. In contrast, small seeds showed elevated expression of many positive regulators of dormancy, including a key regulator of this process – the DOG1 gene. Differences in DOG1 expression were associated with differential production of its alternative cleavage and polyadenylation isoforms where in small seeds proximal poly(A) site is selected resulting in a short mRNA isoform. Furthermore, single-seed RNA-seq analysis demonstrated that large seeds resemble DOG1 knockout mutant seeds. Finally, on the single seed level, the expression of genes affected by seed size was correlated with the expression of genes positioning seeds on the path towards germination. Our results demonstrate an unexpected link between seed size and dormancy phenotypes in a species producing highly homogenous seed pools, suggesting that the correlation between seed morphology and physiology is more widespread than initially assumed.

Arabidopsis thaliana DOG1 pull-downs from seed tissues

Project description:Functionally complemented dog1-1 mutant with a YFP-DOG1 fusion protein under the control of its native promoter were used as starting material for in vivo pull-down of YFP: DOG1 and its interacting proteins from seed tissues in native conditions. DOG1 interacting proteins were identified by mass spectrometry. Pull-downs were performed in biological triplicates using dry or 24 h water imbibed seeds, directly after harvest (dormant condition) and after 7 months of dry storage (non-dormant condition).

DELAY OF GERMINATION 1 plays a role in Arabidopsis seed maturation

Project description:We analysed the transcriptome of dry seeds (the end product of seed maturation) of three genotypes with different DOG1 expression levels. These included the WT Ler (low DOG1 expression), the near isogenic line NILDOG1-Cvi (strong DOG1 expression) and the non-dormant dog1-1 mutant (absence of DOG1 expression). NILDOG1-Cvi is the Ler WT containing an introgression of the Cvi accession on chromosome 5, which includes the DOG1 gene (Bentsink et al., 2006). The dog1-1 mutant is in the NILDOG1-Cvi genetic background. The aim was to obtain a global overview of the effect of different levels of DOG1 expression during seed maturation on the dry seed transcriptome.

Analysis of light induced secondary seed dormancy in Aethionema arabicum, wild type and rgl2 mutant in Cyprus accession

Project description:Light inhibits the seed germination in the Cypriot accession (CYP) of Aethionema arabicum. Extended light illumination also induces a secondary seed dormancy that inhibits the germination even if the seeds were transferred back to darkness. A forward genetic screen identified rgl2 mutant, that show light inhibited germination, but fails to re-enter the secondary dormancy. This analysis aims to compare the seed transcriptome before or after the dormancy was established by light illumination (100 µmol/m2s; white light). One day light treatment (1dL) inhibits the germination but the seeds are not yet dormant. Seven day (7dL) long light treatment induces dormancy in the WT but not in the rgl2 mutant.
