Dynamic Transcriptome in Limonium bicolor Leaf Development: Insights into Genes Controlling Salt Gland Differentiation

ABSTRACT: The salt glands in the epidermis of recretohalophytes play a pivotal role in salt tolerance by secreting excess salts from tissues. Irrespective of the importance of understanding the secretion process, nothing is known about the molecular mechanisms of salt gland development. Limonium bicolor possesses multi-cellular salt glands in the epidermis and provides a model to study salt gland development. We applied next-generation sequencing to profile early leaf development using five distinctly different developmental stages, which were quantified by successive collections of the first true leaf of L. bicolor with precise spatial and temporal resolution. Twenty-two percent of the genes were differentially expressed along the developmental gradient. Cluster analysis revealed specific expression patterns at one stage, and identified enriched functions specific for each developmental stage. Seventy-two genes were identified as highly involved in salt gland differentiation. Salt glands have high homology with trichomes, which was also confirmed by mutants with increased salt gland densities. A model is proposed to illustrate genes participating in salt gland differentiation. This unique dataset lays the foundation for identifying key genes involved in salt gland development and salt secretion, which is a requisite for understanding mechanisms that could make agriculture possible in saline areas worldwide.

Transcriptome of NaCl-treated Limonium bicolor Leaves to Reveal How Many Genes Control Salt Secretion

Project description:Limonium bicolor, a typical recretohalophyte living in saline land, excretes excessive salt to the environment through salt glands in the epidermis for avoiding salt stress. The aim of this study was to screen genes involved in salt secretion by high-throughput RNA sequencing. A model was established to illustrate the candidate genes regulating salt secretion of salt gland. These genes will shed light on molecular mechanism of salt secretion of salt gland in plant.Normalized cDNA libraries of L. bicolor were constructed using mature leaves treated with 200 mM NaCl (with the highest salt secretion) and the control. Illumina paired-end platform was utilized to yield 2×100 bp independent reads. After de novo assembly, unigenes were aligned to the non-redundant (Nr) protein database and differentially expressed genes were enriched by GO annotations. Candidate genes were further verified by L. bicolor mutants with abnormal salt secretion.19,498 genes were targeted in Nr database and 5,768 were differentially expressed mapping to Arabidopsis, 2,269 up-regulated and 3,519 down-regulated under NaCl treatment compared with the control. Genes related to ion transport, vesicle, reactive oxygengen species scavenging, abscisic acid-dependent signal pathway and transcription factors were found high expression under NaCl treatment, of which 55 genes were likely involved in salt secretion and also confirmed by salt-secretion mutants.The present report identified candidate genes which are highly associated with salt secretion of L. bicolor salt gland. A salt transporting pathway was illustrated to explain how Na+ excreted outside by salt gland in L. bicolor. This data provides a useful reference source for salt secretion study of recretohalophytes.

Proteomic characterisation of the salt gland-enriched tissues of the mangrove tree species Avicennia officinalis

Project description:Plant salt glands are nature’s desalination devices that harbour potentially useful information pertaining to salt and water transport during secretion. As part of the program toward deciphering secretion mechanisms in salt glands, we adopted a shotgun approach to look into the proteome of salt-gland enriched tissues of the mangrove tree species Avicennia officinalis. To achieve this, we isolated the adaxial epidermal peels (which harbour the salt glands), and separated them from the mesophyll tissues of the leaves. Three biological replicates were prepared and total proteins were extracted from these tissues. Proteins that were found to be unique in salt gland-enriched tissues were obtained by eliminating proteins found in the mesophyll tissues. The proteins that are uniquely present in salt gland-enriched tissues were then selected and categorized by GO analysis.

Expression profiles of bladder and stalk cell enriched epidermal peels from Chenopdium quinoa

Project description:Quinoa, like a large fraction of halophytes, use so-called bladder cells to detoxify excess salt. These leaf exterior structures are formed by specialized trichomes and consist of a leaf epidermal cell, a stalk cell and the bladder cell itself. Under salt stress, Na+ and Cl- as well as K+ and metabolites are imported from leaf sources and stored in the bladder. During this process the stalk cell simultaneously operates as both a selectivity filter and a flux controller. We submerged detached leaves in buffer, then lightly brushed the abaxial surface with a fine paintbrush to remove only the EBCs. The abaxial epidermis was then removed using tweezers and sampled in buffer for RNA extraction and RNA sequencing to separate the gene expression profiles of stalk cells from bladders and leaves.

Comparison of gene expression between wild type and gl3 egl3 trichomeless mutant green seedling tissues

Project description:The development of trichomes (leaf hairs) from pluripotent epidermal cells in Arabidopsis provides a powerful system to investigate the regulatory motifs involved in plant cell differentiation. Genetic studies have revealed that a bHLH transcription factor, GL3, activates downstream genes required for trichome initiation by interacting with a R2R3-MYB protein, GL1. We have taken advantage of several mutants in the trichome developmental pathway and gene expression analyses to identify a set of genes expressed predominantly in Arabidopsis trichomes.

Integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis of human eccrine sweat glands

Project description:The eccrine sweat gland is an exocrine gland that is involved in the secretion of sweat for control of temperature. Malfunction of the sweat glands can result in disorders such as miliaria, hyperhidrosis and bromhidrosis. In addition, inadequate reabsorption of salt from sweat is a major feature of cystic fibrosis. Understanding the transcriptome and proteome of sweat glands is important for understanding the physiology and the role in disease. However, no systematic transcriptome or proteome analysis of sweat glands has yet been reported. To this end, we isolated eccrine sweat glands by microdissecting them from human skin and performed both RNA-seq and proteome analysis. In total, ~138,000 transcripts and ~6,100 proteins were identified. The proteome data of eccrine sweat gland showed enrichment of proteins involved in secretion, reabsorption, and wound healing while the transcriptome data did not show any enrichment for a specific pathway. Importantly, protein level identification of TRPV4 in eccrine sweat gland establishes its importance in re-epithelialization of partial-thickness wound and prevention of dehydration. Furthermore, this study enabled us to identify2 missing proteins. Integration of RNA-seq and proteomic data allowed us to identify 7 peptides from 5 novel genes. Most of the novel proteins were from short open reading frames (sORFs) suggesting that many sORFs still remain to be annotated in the human genome. The peptides mapping to the missing or novel proteins were validated by analyzing synthetic peptides. This study provides the first integrated analysis of the transcriptome and proteome of the human eccrine sweat gland and should become an invaluable resource to biomedical research community for studying sweat glands in physiology and disease.

Comparing gene expression between wild type and trichomeless mutants

Project description:Trichomes are found on the leaf surface of many plant species. They can be classified into either glandular or non-glandular types. Glandular trichomes are usually multicelluar structures and have long been known to participate in defense against pathogens through the production of specialized chemical products. Non-glandular trichomes, such as those in Arabidopsis thaliana, have been hypothesized to have roles in physical defense against insects, UV protection, detoxification, and heat dispersal. However, it has been difficult to separate a physical role from other possible functions for non-glandular trichomes. We have taken advantage of several mutants in the trichome developmental pathway and gene expression analyses to identify a set of genes expressed predominantly in Arabidopsis trichomes. Keywords: comparing gene expression between wild type and mutants

Single-Cell Resolution of Lineage Trajectories in the Arabidopsis Stomatal Lineage and Developing Leaf

Project description:Dynamic cell identities underlie flexible developmental programs. The stomatal lineages in the Arabidopsis leaf epidermis feature asynchronous and indeterminate divisions that can be modulated by environmental cues. The products of these lineages, stomatal guard cells and pavement cells, regulate plant-atmosphere exchanges, and the epidermis as a whole influences overall leaf growth. How flexibility is encoded in development of the stomatal lineage, and how cell fates are coordinated in the leaf are open questions. Here, we offer single-cell transcriptomes to uncover models of cell differentiation within Arabidopsis leaf tissue.
