Selective autophagy cargo receptor NBR1 is involved in plant response to sulfur deficit

ABSTRACT: Autophagy involvement in plant response to nitrogen, carbon and sulfur starvation was already reported, however the mechanisms responsible for its regulation and selectivity in such conditions were not yet investigated. We observed increased amounts of NBR1 transcript in plants exposed to sulfur deficit as compared to the control plants grown in nutrient sufficient conditions. This observation prompted us to investigate the role of this selective autophagy cargo receptor in plant response to sulfur deficit. Transcriptome analysis of the wild type and NBR overexpressing plants revealed differences in gene expression changes in response to sulfur deficit. Moreover, NBR1 overexpressors have significantly shorter roots than WT, when grown in nutrient deficient conditions in the presence of TOR kinase inhibitors, namely in the conditions leading to autophagy induction. Besides, NBR1 overexpression promoted stomata closure while NBR1 depletion stomata opening. Surprisingly, all lines had more closed stomata when grown in sulfur deficient than sulfur optimal conditions, what indicates that this effect is independent from NBR1. Similarly, ABA-dependent stomatal closure was independent from NBR1 and growth conditions. Cysteine also promoted stomatal closure in NBR1-independent way in plants grown in the optimal medium but in contrast, reduced the number of open stomata in plants from sulfur deficient medium. Interaction network analysis of the proteins co-purifying with NBR1 revealed links with proteins involved in degradation systems, and endosomal trafficking and a surprizing connection with nuclear transport. In addition, several proteins co-purifying with NBR1 were found only in sulfur deficient conditions. One of them, ribosomal protein S6 (RPS6) was further confirmed as a direct NBR1 interactor. Localization of the RPS6 interaction sites in NBR1 indicated that ubiquitin binding domain of NBR1 is not required for this interaction what means that it is rather not the classical “ubiquitinated target - autophagy receptor” interaction.

Plants exposed to sulfur deficit elevate the transcription of <i>NBR1</i> what might reflect an increased demand for NBR1 in such conditions. Therefore, we investigated the role of this selective autophagy cargo receptor in plant response to sulfur deficit (-S). Transcriptome analysis of the wild type and NBR1 overexpressing plants pointed out differences in gene expression in response to -S. Our attention focused particularly on the genes upregulated by -S in roots of both lines because of sign ...[more]

Project description:Hydrogen sulfide is an important signaling molecule in plants that regulates essential biological processes through protein persulfidation. Although numerous persulfidated proteins were found to be involved in photorespiration, little was known about sulfide-mediated regulation of photorespiration. Label-free quantitative proteomic analysis has revealed a high impact on the protein persulfidation level when plants grown under non-photorespiratory conditions are transferred to air, with the 97 % of total identified proteins more persulfidated under suppressed photorespiration. A detailed study of the effect of sulfide on important aspects associated with photorespiratory growth conditions has provided insight into the role of sulfide in protecting plants grown under suppressed photorespiration. In these conditions, sulfide amends the metabolic imbalance of carbon/nitrogen and restores ATP levels to concentrations similar to those in air grown conditions. Sulfide also plays an essential role in balancing the significant high level of ROS measured in plants under non-photorespiratory conditions to reach a similar cellular redox state in air-grown plants, through the regulation of antioxidative defenses. Furthermore, sulfide regulates another important characteristic resulting from suppression of photorespiration, such as the stomata closure, to decrease the high guard cell ROS levels and inducing the stomata aperture. In this way, sulfide signals the movement of the CO2-dependent stomata to achieve a scenario similar to that of plants growing under normal air conditions, in the opposite direction of the already established ABA-dependent movement of the stomata. Therefore, our findings suggest that the high persulfidation level under suppressed photorespiration reveals an essential role of sulfide signaling under these conditions, and with respect to stomatal movement, the outcome of this signaling is dependent on the growth/stress condition under study.
