Project description:Purpose: plants exposed to multiple simultaneous adverse growth conditions trigger molecular responses that differ from the sum of those to individual stressors. Copper and iron are fundamental elements required for proper photosynthesis, energy production, DNA metabolism and hormone sensing, among all. Therefore, copper and iron deprivation limits plant yield. In natural environments, simultaneous deficiency to copper and iron can occur. As part of a multiple high-throughput study to identify combinatorial responses to both copper and iron deficiency, RNA-Seq profiling of Arabidopsis thaliana rosette leaves exposed to copper and/or iron deficiencies have been conducted. Methods: RNA-Seq libraries were prepared from total RNA of whole rosettes of 20-d-old plants treated for control conditions, copper deficiency, iron deficiency or simultaneous deficiency to both copper and iron for 10 d and sequenced using Illumina protocols. 2 independent plants were RNA-Seq-sequenced per treatment. Adaptor sequences were removed with Trimmomatic and the resulting reads mapped to the Arabidopsis genome (Araport11) with Tophat 2.1.1. Read counts and differential expression analysis were conducted with Cufflinks/Cuffdiff. Results: for RNA-Seq analysis a Tophat/Cuffdiff pipeline was designed. Each sample provided app. 9 million reads. After applying a cut-off of absolute log2(FC) ≥ 1 to controls and a FDR ≤ 0.05, copper deficiency led to 83 differentially expressed genes, followed by 1708 during iron deficiency, while the combinatorial treatment altered 2056 transcripts. Comparison of differential expressed genes among treatments indicated that double deficiency led to app. 45% rewiring of all detected transcriptional changes. Conclusions: our data support that combinatorial copper and iron deficiency treatments in plants triggers transcriptional responses that differ from those to single deficiencies.

Project description:Copper and iron are essential micronutrients for most living organisms because they participate as cofactors in biological processes including respiration, photosynthesis and oxidative stress protection. In many eukaryotic organisms, including yeast and mammals, copper and iron homeostases are highly interconnected; however such interdependence is not well established in higher plants. Here we propose that COPT2, a high-affinity copper transport protein, functions under copper and iron deficiencies in Arabidopsis thaliana. COPT2 is a plasma membrane protein that functions in copper acquisition and distribution. Characterization of the COPT2 expression pattern indicates a synergic response to copper and iron limitation in roots. We have characterized a knockout of COPT2, copt2-1, that leads to increased resistance to simultaneous copper and iron deficiencies, measured as reduced leaf chlorosis and improved maintenance of the photosynthetic apparatus. We propose that COPT2 expression could play a dual role under Fe deficiency. First, COPT2 participates in the attenuation of copper deficiency responses driven by iron limitation maybe aimed to minimize further iron consume. On the other hand, global expression analyses of copt2-1 mutants versus wild type Arabidopsis plants indicate that low phosphate responses are increased in copt2-1 plants. In this sense, COPT2 function under Fe deficiency counteracts low phosphate responses. These results open up new biotechnological approaches to fight iron deficiency in crops.

Four biological replicates of Arabidopsis seedlings were generated for 2 genotypes, Col-0 and copt2-1 mutant; and 3 growth condictions; first one an iron(Fe) and copper(Cu) sufficient medium (+Fe + Cu), second one an Fe deficient and Cu sufficient medium (-Fe+Cu) and third one an Fe and Cu deficient medium (-Fe-Cu). For each growth one comparasion was made, copt2-1 mutant versus Col-0; in each comparasion four biological replicates were made, two replicas were labeled with Cy5 for the mutant sample and Cy3 for the Col-0 sample, while the other two replicas were reversed-labeled.

Project description:Iron and copper are important environmental nutrients for plant growth. However, the molecular mechanisms of both iron and copper signaling that integrate the two pathways remain poorly understood. The Arabidopsis thaliana high affinity copper transporter COPT5, is a tonoplast localized permease involved in copper remobilization. Here, a global expression microarray analysis of the copt5 mutant points out the induction of iron deficiency responses, including NATURAL RESISTANCE-ASSOCIATED MACROPHAGE PROTEIN 4 (NRAMP4), a tonoplast-localized iron transporter. The copper requirement in iron perception and uptake from the media becomes more evident in the double nramp3nramp4 mutant, unable to remobilize iron from vacuoles, that is highly sensitive to copper deficiency. Furthermore, COPT5 expression is altered under iron deficiency and the copt5 mutant is sensitive to iron deficiency and is unable to perceive iron in the media under copper deficiency. Noteworthy, iron deficiency post-transcriptionally restraints the copper-dependent superoxide dismutase protein levels and the subsequent activity. As a consequence of its increased iron deficiency responses, the copt5 mutant present lower levels of both copper- and iron-dependent superoxide dismutase activities. Moreover, the copt5 mutant mobilizes faster its iron storage pools and presents higher levels of iron in cotyledons and seeds. These results underline the importance of internal metal pools in the understanding of copper and iron deficiency responses and their crosstalk that are critical for governing proper plant development in response to combined metal scarcities in soils.

Project description:Copper (Cu) homeostasis is critical to the health of most organisms, and is thus tightly regulated by several highly conserved processes. Using the unique genomic tools available in yeast, we have expanded current knowledge of these processes by identifying 237 genes important for Cu-dependent growth. 116 of these genes, when deleted, decreased Cu-dependent respiratory growth. The remaining 121 genes, when deleted, produced respiratory growth defects that were specifically rescued by addition of Cu. Among the genes identified by our screen are known regulators of copper homeostasis, genes required to maintain low vacuolar pH, and genes where evidence supporting a functional link with Cu has been heretofore lacking. Many genes identified are not only conserved in man, but also associated with diseases spanning a variety of clinical phenotypes. We demonstrate that the approved drug disulfiram rescues Cu-deficiencies of both environmental and genetic origin, thus underscoring a potential paradigm for treating the broad spectrum of Cu-related disease in man.

Project description:Higher plants have developed sophisticated mechanisms to efficiently acquire and use micronutrients such as copper and iron. In the present work, we studied effects produced by the presence of a wide copper range in growth media and altered copper transport on iron homeostasis in Oryza sativa plants. The global analysis of gene expression in the rice seedlings grown under copper deficiency versus excess in the medium showed an increased expression of the genes involved in iron homeostasis. Different iron-related genes are expressed under either copper deficiency and excess, such as those that encode ferredoxin and transcriptional regulator IRON-RELATED TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR 2 (OsIRO2), respectively. As expected, the expression of OsCOPT1, which encodes a high affinity copper transport protein, was up-regulated under copper deficiency, and the expression of OsIRO2 targets were increased under copper excess. Arabidopsis COPT1 overexpression (C1OE) in rice causes root shortening under copper excess, modifies the expression of the putative Fe-sensing factor HEMERYTHRIN MOTIF-CONTAINING REALLY INTERESTING NEW GENE- AND ZINC-FINGER (OsHRZ1) and enhances the expression of OsIRO2 and its targets, which suggests a role of copper in iron signaling. Our studies conducted under simultaneous copper and iron deficiencies indicate that C1OE plants are more sensitive than the wild-type controls to root growth inhibition. The C1OE rice plants grown on soil contained higher endogenous iron concentration in grains than the wild-type plants (both brown and white grains). The results obtained herein showed the interaction between homeostatic networks of iron and copper, and suggest that strategies to obtain crops with optimized nutrient concentrations in edible parts should take into account this interaction.

Project description:The protein abundance of Synechocystis in response to the given copper-iron combination was examined, then followed by comparative proteomic analyses to reveal the proteins associated with copper and iron stress. These data would provide a theoretical basis for understanding the relationship between copper and iron in cyanobacteria at the protein level and shed light on the role of these two metal elements in energy metabolism and biomass accumulation of cyanobacteria.

Project description:RNA-seq was used to assess mRNA transcript abundance in wild type and fra2Δ S. cerevisiae (BY4741) cells treated with 2-(6-benzyl-2-pyridyl)quinazoline (BPQ) and CuSO4. BPQ potentiates copper toxicity and in yeast, in common with other organisms, a major cause of copper toxicity is damage of iron-sulphur clusters. Iron sensing within yeast relies on mitochondrial iron-sulphur cluster biosynthesis and therefore treatment with BPQ and copper can be used to mimic iron deficiency. Fra2 is known to be a key component of the iron sensing mechanism; however, this mechanism can operate, to an extent, independently of Fra2. BPQ (+CuSO4) treatment was used with the aim of probing the regulation of the iron regulon of S. cerevisiae and the role of Fra2 in the suppression of the low iron response. This study has uncovered nine new Cth2 target-transcripts, plus a new Aft1 target-gene and paralogous non-target. Fra2 dominates basal repression of the iron regulon in iron-replete cultures, however, Fra2-independent control of the iron regulon is also observed with CTH2 appearing to be atypically Fra2-dependent. Transcripts from untreated and CuSO4 treated cells were included as controls.
