Proteomics identifies ubiquitin-proteasome targets and new roles for chromatin-remodelling in the Arabidopsis response to phosphate starvation

ABSTRACT: In order to identify new regulators of the phosphate (Pi) starvation signaling pathway in plants, we analyzed variation in the abundance of nuclear-enriched nuclear proteins isolated from Arabidopsis roots that depends on Pi supply. We used 2-D Fluorescence Difference Gel Electrophoresis and MALDI-TOF/TOF techniques for nuclear proteome separation, visualization and relative protein abundance quantification and identification. Pi-controlled proteins identified in our analysis included components of the chromatin remodeling, DNA replication, and mRNA splicing machineries. In addition, by combining Pi starvation conditions with proteasome inhibitor treatments, we characterized the role of the ubiquitin- (Ub)-proteasome system (UPS), a major mechanism for targeted protein degradation in eukaryotes, in the control of the stability of Pi-responsive proteins. Among Pi-responsive proteins, the histone chaperone NAP1;2 was selected for further characterization, and was shown to display differential nucleo-cytoplasmic accumulation in response to Pi deprivation. We also found that mutants affecting three members of the NAP1 family accumulate lower Pi levels and display reduced expression of Pi starvation-inducible genes, reflecting a regulatory role for these chromatin-remodelling proteins in Pi homeostasis.

Project description:Aphids, sap-sucking insects in the order Hemiptera, are among the most prolific insect vectors of plant viruses Plant viruses from the family Luteoviridae are transmitted exclusively by aphids in a circulative manner and cause significant crop yield losses. Circulative plant viruses must cross the aphid gut and other tissues prior to transmission to a new host plant. The discovery of proteins that control acquisition and transmission in the insect vector is the biggest challenge for the vector biology field and will have practical applications for growers by providing new molecular targets for the development of precision vector management tools. The green peach aphid, Myzus persicae, is a vector of the Potato leafroll virus (PLRV), a polerovirus in the Luteoviridae. PLRV transmission efficiency was significantly reduced when a clonal lineage of M. persicae was reared on turnip (T-Myzus) as compared to the weed physalis (P-Myzus). The effect on PLRV transmission efficiency was transient and caused by a host-switch response. Using 2-D DIGE, we revealed that the major difference in the proteome profile of P- and T-Myzus was the lysosomal cysteine protease cathepsin B, with multiple size and charge isoforms of this enzyme up-regulated in T-Myzus. Quantitative, shotgun proteomics revealed a specific upregulation in the expression of other lysosomal proteins in T-Myzus as compared to P-Myzus, including cathepsin B, cathepsin B-16, beta-glucuronidase, peroxidasin, legumain-like, and aminopeptidase-N. The titer of PLRV was over 1.5 fold higher in P-Myzus than in T-Myzus at 24h and 72h after the beginning of virus acquisition, suggesting that virus acquisition in P-Myzus was more efficient. Cathepsin B and PLRV localization were starkly different in P- and T-Myzus midguts, the site of PLRV acquisition into the insect. In P-Myzus midguts, an abundance of PLRV was observed inside midgut cells, and cathepsin B was sequestered in a subcellular compartment. In contrast, there is near complete co-localization of cathepsin B and PLRV at the cell membranes in viruliferous T-Myzus. Inhibition of cathepsin and other cysteine proteases with E64 restored the ability of T-Myzus to transmit PLRV in a dose-dependent manner, suggesting that the activities of lysosomal cysteine proteases at the cell membrane in T-Myzus is responsible for the change in virus transmission phenotype in these aphids. T-Myzus individuals weighed more and had more progeny than P-Myzus individuals. These data are all consistent with the hypothesis that there is an induction of lysosomal exocytos in the midgut of T-Myzus linked to the ability of the aphid to acquire PLRV. These data also show that the ability of the generalist aphid M. persicae to transmit PLRV is influenced by the host plant the aphids are reared on, information that is useful to growers for polerovirus management in field crops.

Project description:Data analysis. Spot detection and matching were performed with a comparative cross analysis of all the gels using DeCyder software v.6.5 (GE Healthcare). 178 spots were selected based on 1.15-fold for protein ratio cut-off, allowing for the appearance of the spots in 23 out of 28 gels (69 out of 84 total images). Data from 95 spots were submitted. 93 spots were identified with high confidence. Spot picking and Trypsin digestion. The spots of interest were picked up by Ettan Spot Picker (GE Healthcare) based on the in-gel analysis and spot picking design by DeCyder software. The gel spots were washed a few times then digested in-gel with modified porcine trypsin protease (Promega, Fitchburg, WI). The digested tryptic peptides were desalted using a Zip-tip C18 (Millipore, Billerica, MA). Peptides were eluted from the Zip-tip with 0.5 uL of matrix solution (alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid, 5 mg/mL in 50% acetonitrile, 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid, 25mM ammonium bicarbonate) and spotted on a MALDI plate. Mass Spectrometry. MALDI-TOF MS and TOF/TOF tandem MS/MS were performed on AB SCIEX TOF/TOF 5800 System (AB SCIEX). MALDI-TOF mass spectra were acquired in reflectron positive ion mode, averaging 4000 laser shots per spectrum. TOF/TOF tandem MS fragmentation spectra were acquired for each sample, averaging 4000 laser shots per fragmentation spectrum on each of the 7-10 most abundant ions present in each sample (excluding trypsin autolytic peptides and other known background ions). Database search. Both the resulting peptide mass and the associated fragmentation spectra were submitted to GPS Explorer workstation equipped with MASCOT search engine (Matrix Science, Boston, MA) to search the Swiss-Prot database. Searches were performed without constraining protein molecular weight or isoelectric point, with variable carbamidomethylation of cysteine and oxidation of methionine residues, and with one missed cleavage also allowed in the search parameters. Candidates with either protein score C.I.% or Ion C.I.% greater than 95 were considered significant. When multiple IDs were significant for a given spot, the selection was made by evaluating apparent molecular weight, isoelectric point, the location of the spot in the gel, and the presence of strips of multiple protein isoforms in the adjacent spots.

Project description:The experiment was carried out during two vegetation seasons from 25th of April to 10th of September. Two Polish potato cultivars, the drought-tolerant Gwiazda and drought-sensitive Oberon were used. Selected tubers with transverse diameters of 3 - 4 cm were pre-sprouted for 2 weeks before planting. Plants were grown in a vegetation hall in pots filled with a thin layer of gravel on the bottom and the universal vegetable soil substrate ‘Hollas’ (Agaris Polska Ltd., Poland) produced from peat with the addition of chalk at a pH range of 5.5-6.5. Additionally, in phase 20 of the BBCH-scale of plant development, MIS-3 (Intermag) fertilizer was applied. Water content (WC) in volumetric basis in soil pots was measured according Black (1965). Weather conditions during the years of study were monitored using a Weather Campbell Station (Campbell Scientific Inc.) located in close proximity, and a thermohygrograph placed between pots. Meteorological data of air temperature, the photosynthetically active radiation, and humidity were comparable in the years of study and favorable for potato development. Three weeks after the initiation of the tuberisation phase (56 DAP), plants were divided into 3 groups, each consisting of 6 plants. The first group of plants was subjected to soil drought (remained without irrigation, day/night temperature 22°C/18°C), the second one to high temperature (day/night temperature 38°C/25°C) and the third one was watered according to needs and at optimal temperature (control plants, day/night temperature 22°C/18°C). Stress application lasted 14 days and finished at 70 DAP. During this period, plants were placed in phytotron equipped with six Hortilux Schreder Lamps with Philips light bulbs of 1600 W each. Air humidity was in the range 65-70%. WC under 14 days of soil drought reached 30% (v/v), and remained 80% (v/v) in control and high temperature conditions. During the recovery period, after 14 days of stress treatment, WC reached control levels. Plant root material for proteomic research was collected on the 14th day of stress treatment (70 DAP).
