An Arabidopsis Nucleoporin NUP85 modulates plant responses to ABA and salt stress

ABSTRACT: Several nucleoporins in the nuclear pore complex (NPC) have been reported to be involved in abiotic stress responses in plants. However, the molecular mechanism of how NPC regulates abiotic stress responses, especially the expression of stress responsive genes remains poorly understood. From a forward genetics screen using an abiotic stress-responsive luciferase reporter (RD29A-LUC) in the sickle-1 (sic-1) mutant background, we identified a suppressor caused by a mutation in NUCLEOPORIN 85 (NUP85), which exhibited reduced expression of RD29A-LUC in response to ABA and salt stress. Consistently, the ABA and salinity induced expression of several stress responsive genes such as RD29A, COR15A and COR47 was significantly compromised in nup85 mutants and other nucleoporin mutants such as nup160 and hos1. Subsequently, Immunoprecipitation and mass spectrometry analysis revealed that NUP85 is potentially associated with HOS1 and other nucleoporins within the nup107-160 complex, along with several mediator subunits. We further showed that there is a direct physical interaction between MED18 and NUP85. Similar to NUP85 mutations, MED18 mutation was also found to attenuate expression of stress responsive genes. Taken together, we not only revealed the involvement of NUP85 and other nucleoporins in regulating ABA and salt stress responses, but also uncovered a potential relation between NPC and mediator complex in modulating the gene expression in plants.

Functional interaction of chromatin with nucleoporins in Drosophila

Project description:Nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) mediate transport across the nuclear envelope. In yeast, they have also been proposed to interact with active genes, attracting or retaining them at the nuclear periphery. However, some NPC components (nucleoporins) in higher eukaryotes are also found in the nucleoplasm, with so far unknown function. Therefore, we have functionally distinguished between nucleoporin-chromatin interactions at the NPC and within the nucleoplasm in Drosophila. For this we analyzed genomic interactions of full-length nucleoporins Nup98, Nup50 and Nup62 and nucleoplasmic and NPC-tethered forms of Nup98. We found that nucleoporins predominantly interacted with transcriptionally active genes inside the nucleoplasm. A smaller set of non-active genes interacted with the NPC. We identified a direct role for nucleoplasmic Nup98 in stimulating gene expression, as genes downregulated upon Nup98 depletion were activated upon nucleoplasmic Nup98 overexpression and showed strong nucleoplasmic Nup98 interaction. Thus, nucleoporins stimulate gene expression away from the NPC by interacting with genes inside the nucleoplasm.

CDK8 is associated with RAP2.6 and SnRK2.6 and positively modulates abscisic acid signaling and drought response in Arabidopsis

Project description:CDK8 is a key subunit of Mediator complex, a large multiprotein complex that is a fundamental part of the conserved eukaryotic transcriptional machinery. However, the biological functions of CDK8 in plant abiotic stress responses remain largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrated CDK8 as a critical regulator in the abscisic acid (ABA) signaling and drought response pathways in Arabidopsis. Compared to wild-type, cdk8 mutants showed reduced sensitivity to ABA, impaired stomatal apertures and hypersensitivity to drought stress. Transcriptomic and chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis revealed that CDK8 positively regulates the transcription of several ABA-responsive genes, probably through promoting the recruitment of RNA polymerase II to their promoters. We discovered that both CDK8 and SnRK2.6 interact physically with an ERF/AP2 transcription factor RAP2.6, which can directly bind to the promoters of RD29A and COLD-REGULATED 15A (COR15A) with GCC or DRE elements, thereby promoting their expression. Importantly, we also showed that CDK8 is essential for the ABA-induced expression of RAP2.6 and RAP2.6-mediated upregulation of ABA-responsive genes, indicating that CDK8 could link the SnRK2.6-mediated ABA signaling to RNA polymerase II to promote immediate transcriptional response to ABA and drought signals. Overall, our data provide new insights into the roles of CDK8 in modulating ABA signaling and drought responses.

A novel NAC transcription factor cooperates with bZIP-type transcription factors in dehydration and osmotic stress responses

Project description:Multiple transcription factors (TFs) play essential roles in plants under abiotic stress, one of the most challenging conditions of plant survival. However, how these multiple TFs cooperate in abiotic stress responses still remains largely unknown. In this study, we provide evidence that a novel NAC (NAM, ATAF1/2, and CUC2) transcription factor (ANAC096) cooperates with bZIP-type TFs [ABRE-binding factor/ABRE-binding protein (ABF/AREB)] in ensuring survival under dehydration and osmotic stress conditions. Intriguingly, ANAC096 directly interacted with ABF2 and ABF4, but not with ABF3, both in vitro and in vivo. ANAC096 and ABF2 synergistically activated RD29A transcription. The genome-wide gene expression analysis revealed that a major proportion of ABA-responsive genes are under the transcriptional regulation of ANAC096.An Arabidopsis mutant, anac096, was hyposensitive to exogenous abscisic acid (ABA), and showed impaired ABA-induced stomatal closure and increased water loss under dehydration stress conditions. Furthermore, the anac096 abf2 abf4 triple mutant was much more sensitive to dehydration and osmotic stresses than the anac096 single mutant or the abf2 abf4 double-mutant. Based on these results, we propose that ANAC096 is involved in a synergistic relationship with a subset of ABFs for the transcriptional activation of ABA-inducible genes in response to dehydration and osmotic stresses.

Transcriptomic analysis of the voz1 voz2 double mutant

Project description:Plants adapt to abiotic and biotic stresses by activating abscisic acid-mediated (ABA) abiotic stress-responsive and salicylic acid-(SA) or jasmonic acid-mediated (JA) biotic stress-responsive pathways, respectively. Although the abiotic stress-responsive pathway interacts antagonistically with the biotic stress-responsive pathways, the mechanisms that regulate these pathways remain largely unknown. In this study, we provide insight into the function of vascular plant one-zinc-finger proteins (VOZs) that modulate various stress responses in Arabidopsis. The expression of many stress-responsive genes was changed in the voz1voz2 double mutant under normal growth conditions. Consistent with altered stress-responsive gene expression, freezing- and drought-stress tolerances were increased in the voz1voz2 double mutant. In contrast, resistance to a fungal pathogen, Colletotrichum higginsianum, and to a bacterial pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae, was severely impaired. Thus, impairing VOZ function simultaneously conferred increased abiotic tolerance and biotic stress susceptibility. In a chilling stress condition, both the VOZ1 and VOZ2 mRNA expression levels and the VOZ2 protein level gradually decreased. VOZ2 degradation during cold exposure was completely inhibited by the addition of the 26S proteasome inhibitor, MG132, a finding that suggested that VOZ2 degradation is dependent on the ubiquitin/26S proteasome system. In voz1voz2, ABA-inducible transcription factor CBF4 expression was enhanced significantly even under normal growth conditions, despite an unchanged endogenous ABA content. A finding that suggested that VOZs negatively affect CBF4 expression in an ABA-independent manner. These results suggest that VOZs function as both negative and positive regulators of the abiotic and biotic stress-responsive pathways, and control Arabidopsis adaptation to various stress conditions.

NUP1 modulates proteasome based degradation of ABI5 in Nuclear Pore Complex region to regulate Arabidopsis seed germination

Project description:NUCLEOPORIN 1 (NUP1), a member of the Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC), is located on the inner side of the nuclear membrane. It is highly expressed in seeds; however, its role in seeds including germination has not been explored yet. Here, we identified an ABA hypersensitive phenotype of nup1 during germination. ABA treatment drastically changes the expression pattern of thousands of genes in nup1, including the major transcription factors (TFs) involved in germination, ABI3, ABI4, and ABI5. Double mutant analysis of NUP1 and these ABA-related genes showed that mutations in ABI5 can rescue the phenotype of nup1, suggesting that NUP1 acts upstream of ABI5 to regulate seed germination. ABI5, a negative regulator of germination was previously reported to be predominantly expressed in nucleus. Our subnuclear localization study indicates ABI5 is mostly localized in nucleoplasm. It is abundant in dry seeds and rapidly degraded during germination, but the details of its degradation site is unclear. Here, we found that NUP1 is physically associated with ABI5 and the 19S regulatory particle (RP) of the 26S proteasome near NPC. Mutation in NUP1 delayed the ABI5 degradation through its post-translation retention in nucleolus after abiotic stress treatment. Taken together, we propose, NUP1 anchors the proteasome to NPC and modulates Arabidopsis seed germination through proteasome-mediated degradation of ABI5 in the vicinity of NPC in nucleoplasm.

RNA-seq of Wild type Arabidopisis and two Nup96 mutants

Project description:Lines of evidence indicate that nuclear pore complex profoundly affects the timing of plant flowering, but the underlying mechanisms remain poorly elucidated. Here, we report that Nucleoporin 96 (Nup96) acts as a negative regulator of long-day photoperiodic flowering in Arabidopsis. Through multiple approaches, we identified and verified an E3 ubiquitin ligase HIGH EXPRESSION OF OSMOTICALLY RESPONSIVE GENE 1 (HOS1) interacting in vivo with Nup96. Nup96 and HOS1 proteins mainly localize and interact on nuclear membrane. Loss-of-function of Nup96 leads to destruction of HOS1 proteins without changing its mRNA abundance, which results in over-accumulation of the key activator of long-dayphotoperiodic flowering, CONSTANS (CO) proteins, as that in hos1 mutants. Unexpectedly, we observed that mutation of HOS1 gene strikingly diminishes Nup96 protein level, suggesting that Nup96 and HOS1 are mutually stabilized and thus they form a novel repressive module to regulate CO protein turnover. Therefore, the nup96 and hos1 single mutants and nup96 hos1 double mutant have very much similar early-flowering phenotypes and overlapping transcriptome changes. Together, this study reveals a new repression mechanism, where the Nup96-HOS1 repressive module gates the level of CO proteins, to prevent precocious flowering of Arabidopsis under long day conditions.
