Project description:The DXO family of proteins participates in eukaryotic mRNA 5'-end quality control, removal of non-canonical NAD+ cap and maturation of fungal rRNA precursors. In this work, we characterize DXO1, the Arabidopsis thaliana DXO homolog. We demonstrate that the plant-specific modification within the active site negatively affects 5'-end capping surveillance properties of DXO1, but has only a minor impact on its strong deNADding activity. Unexpectedly, catalytic activity does not contribute to striking morphological and molecular aberrations observed upon DXO1 knockout in plants, which include growth and pigmentation deficiency, global transcriptomic changes and accumulation of RNA quality control siRNAs. Conversely, these phenotypes depend on the plant-specific N-terminal extension of DXO1. Pale-green coloration of DXO1-deficient plants and our RNA-seq data reveal that DXO1 affects chloroplast-localized processes. We propose that DXO1 mediates the connection between RNA turnover and retrograde chloroplast-to-nucleus signaling independently of its deNADding properties.

Project description:In bacteria, the biosynthesis of cysteine is accomplished by two enzymes that are encoged by the cysK and cysM genes. CysM is also able to incorporate thiosulfate to produce S-sulfocysteine. In plant cells, the biosynthesis of cysteine occurs in the cytosol, mitochondria and chloroplasts. Chloroplasts contain two O-acetylserine(thiol)lyase homologs, which are encoded by the OAS-B and CS26 genes. An in vitro enzymatic analysis of the recombinant CS26 protein demonstrated that this isoform possesses S-sulfocysteine synthase activity and lacks O-acetylserine(thiol)lyase activity. In vivo functional analysis of this enzyme in knockout mutants demonstrated that mutation of cs26 suppressed the S-sulfocysteine synthase activity that was detected in wild type; furthermore, the mutants exhibited a growth phenotype, but penetrance depended on the light regime. The cs26 mutant plants also had reductions in chlorophyll content and photosynthetic activity (neither of which were observed in oas-b mutants), as well as elevated glutathione levels. However, cs26 leaves were not able to properly detoxify ROS, which accumulated to high levels under long-day growth conditions. The transcriptional profile of the cs26 mutant revealed that the mutation had a pleiotropic effect on many cellular and metabolic processes. Our finding reveals that S-sulfocysteine and the activity of S-sulfocysteine synthase play an important role in chloroplast function and are essential for light-dependent redox regulation within the chloroplast.

Project description:The aim of this study was to analyze the impact of autotetraploidy on gene expression in Arabidopsis thaliana by comparing diploid versus tetraploid transcriptomes. In particular, this included the comparison of the transcriptome of different tetraploid A. thaliana ecotypes (Col-0 vs. Ler-0). The study was extended to address further aspects. One was the comparison of the transcriptomes in subsequent generations. This intended to obtain information on the genome wide stability of autotetraploid gene expression. Another line of work compared the transcriptomes of different diploid vs. tetraploid tissues. This aimed to investigate whether particular gene groups are specifically affected during the development of A. thaliana autotetraploids.

Project description:Regulation of light absorption under variable light conditions is essential to optimize photosynthetic and acclimatory processes in plants. Light energy absorbed in excess has a damaging effect on chloroplasts and can lead to cell death. Therefore, plants have evolved protective mechanisms against excess excitation energy that include chloroplast accumulation and avoidance responses. One of the proteins involved in facilitating chloroplast movements in Arabidopsis thaliana is the J domain-containing protein required for chloroplast accumulation response 1 (JAC1). The function of JAC1 relates to the chloroplast actin filaments appearance and disappearance. So far, the role of JAC1 was studied mainly in terms of chloroplasts photorelocation. Here, we demonstrate that the function of JAC1 is more complex, since it influences the composition of photosynthetic pigments, the efficiency of photosynthesis, and the CO2 uptake rate. JAC1 has positive effect on water use efficiency (WUE) by reducing stomatal aperture and water vapor conductance. Importantly, we show that the stomatal aperture regulation is genetically coupled with JAC1 activity. In addition, our data demonstrate that JAC1 is involved in the fine-tuning of H2O2 foliar levels, antioxidant enzymes activities and cell death after UV-C photooxidative stress. This work uncovers a novel function for JAC1 in affecting photosynthesis, CO2 uptake, and photooxidative stress responses.

Project description:Thiol-dependent redox regulation is essential for the rapid adaptation of chloroplast metabolism to unpredictable changes of light intensity. The disulfide reductase activity of thioredoxins (Trxs), which relies on photo-reduced ferredoxin (Fdx) and a Fdx-dependent Trx reductase (FTR), constitutes the Fdx-FTR-Trxs system, which links chloroplast redox regulation to light. In addition, chloroplasts harbor an NADPH-dependent Trx reductase (NTR) with a joint Trx domain, NTRC. The activity of these two redox systems is integrated by the balance of the hydrogen peroxide scavenging enzyme 2-Cys peroxiredoxin (2-Cys Prx), which thus plays a key role in maintaining the reducing capacity of chloroplast Trxs in response to light intensity. Based on the severe phenotype of mutant lines lacking NTRC, it is clear that this enzyme plays an essential role in chloroplast redox homeostasis. However, whether the function of NTRC depends on its capacity of reduce 2-Cys Prxs or has additional targets remains unknown. Here, we have addressed this issue by a comparative analysis of the triple mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana, ntrc-2cpab, simultaneously lacking 2-Cys Prxs and NTRC, and the double mutant 2cpab lacking 2-Cys Prxs. The phenotype of the ntrc-2cpab mutant is indistinguishable of the 2cpab mutant, as shown by growth rate, photosynthesis performance, light-dependent redox regulation of enzyme activity and comparative transcriptomics based RNA-Seq. Based on these results, we propose that the function of NTRC in chloroplast redox homeostasis is exerted by the regulation of the redox balance of 2-Cys Prxs rather than by the direct reduction of additional targets.

Project description:Survival of plants depends on their ability to adapt to ever-changing environmental conditions. Chloroplasts sense different stimuli and respond to ion fluxes in the cytosol triggering systemic responses under stress conditions. Indeed, changes in calcium and magnesium ion concentration in the chloroplast stroma impact the immune response against pathogens and adapt the photosynthetic machinery under fluctuating light conditions. Here we investigated the link between di-valent cations, calcium, magnesium and manganese and the protein kinase activity in Arabidopsis chloroplasts. Our results show that overall, manganese ions are the strongest activator of kinase activity in chloroplasts followed by magnesium ions, whereas calcium ions have seemingly no effect. Additionally, when comparing the phosphorylation pattern from Arabidopsis wild type and a cmt1 mutant, which is defective in manganese import into chloroplasts, the phosphorylation of specific protein bands is strongly reduced in the mutant chloroplasts supporting the notion that chloroplasts contain manganese-dependent protein kinases. These findings provide insights for the future characterization of chloroplast protein kinases activity regarding in-vitro assays and potential target proteins.

Using the Affymetrix ATH1 GeneChips, we performed a comparative transcriptomic analysis on leaves of the cs26 and wild type plants under two different photoperiod conditions. Wild type and cs26 mutant plants were grown on soil under a long-day photoperiod (LD) or under a short-day photoperiod (SD). Total RNA was extracted from the leaves of 3-week-old plants grown under identical LD conditions, and from the leaves of 5-week-old plants grown under identical SD conditions. Three biological replicates were performed for each sample and hybridized to the chips. We made two different comparisons to classify the differently expressed genes in the mutant plant: cs26 leaves under LD versus wild-type leaves under LD and cs26 leaves under SD versus wild-type leaves under SD.
