Exploring maize transcriptional regulatory landscape through large-scale profiling of transcription factor binding sites

Project description:Understanding gene regulatory networks (GRNs) is essential for improving maize yield and quality through molecular breeding approaches. The lack of comprehensive transcription factor (TF)-DNA interaction data has hindered accurate GRN predictions, limiting our insight into the regulatory mechanisms. Here, we performed large-scale profiling of maize TF binding sites. We obtained and collected reliable binding profiles for 513 TFs, identified 394,136 binding sites, and constructed an accuracy-enhanced maize GRN (mGRN+) by integrating chromatin accessibility and gene expression data. The mGRN+ comprises 397,699 regulatory relationships. We further divided the mGRN+ into multiple modules across six major tissues. Using machine learning algorithms, we optimized the mGRN+ to improve prediction accuracy of gene functions and key regulators. Through independent genetic validation experiments, we further confirmed the reliability of these predictions. This work provides the largest collection of experimental TF binding sites in maize and a highly optimized regulatory network, both of which can serve as valuable resources for the study of maize gene function and for crop improvement applications.

A large-scale circular RNA profiling reveals universal molecular mechanisms responsive to drought stress in maize and Arabidopsis

Project description:Drought is a major abiotic stress that threatens global food security. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous RNAs. How these molecules influence plant stress responses remains elusive. Here, a large scale circRNA profiling identified 2174 and 1354 high-confidence circRNAs in maize and Arabidopsis, respectively, and most were differentially expressed in response to drought. A substantial number of drought-associated circRNA hosting genes were involved in conserved or species-specific pathways in drought responses. Comparative analysis revealed that circRNA biogenesis was more complex in maize than in Arabidopsis. In most cases, maize circRNAs were negatively correlated with sRNA accumulation. In 368 maize inbred lines, the circRNA-hosting genes were enriched for SNPs associated with circRNA expression and drought tolerance, implying either important roles of circRNAs in maize drought responses or their potential use as biomarkers for breeding drought-tolerant maize. Additionally, the expression levels of circRNAs derived from drought-responsible genes encoding calcium-dependent protein kinase and cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase were significantly associated with drought tolerance of maize seedlings. Specifically, Arabidopsis plants overexpressing circGORK (Guard cell outward-rectifying K+-channel) were hypersensitive to ABA, but insensitive to drought, suggesting a positive role of circGORK in drought tolerance. We report the transcriptomic profiling and transgenic studies of circRNAs in plant drought responses, and provide evidences highlighting the universal molecular mechanisms involved in plant drought tolerance.

Large-scale Proteomic and Phosphoproteomic Analysis of Maize Seedling Leaves During De-etiolation

Project description:De-etiolation consists of a series of developmental and physiological changes that a plant undergoes in response to light. During this process light, an important environmental signal, triggers the inhibition of mesocotyl elongation and the production of photosynthetically active chloroplasts, and etiolated leaves transition from the “sink” stage to the “source” stage. De-etiolation has been extensively studied in maize (Zea mays L). However, little is known about how this transition is regulated. In this study, we describe a quantitative proteomic and phosphoproteomic atlas of the de-etiolation process in maize. We identified 16,420 proteins and quantified 14,168. In addition, 8,746 phosphorylation sites within 3,110 proteins were identified. From the proteomic and phosphoproteomic data combined, we identified a total of 17,436 proteins, 27.6% of which are annotated protein coding genes in the Zea_mays AGPv3.28 database. Only 6% of proteins significantly changed in abundance during de-etiolation. In contrast, the phosphorylation levels of more than 25% of phosphoproteins significantly changed; these included proteins involved in gene expression and homeostatic pathways and rate-limiting enzymes involved in photosynthesis light and carbon reactions. Based on phosphoproteomic analysis, 34% (1,057) of all phosphoproteins identified in this study contained more than three phosphorylation sites, and 37 proteins contained more than 16 phosphorylation sites, which shows that multi-phosphorylation is ubiquitous during the de-etiolation process. Our results suggest that plants might preferentially regulate the level of PTMs rather than protein abundance for adapting to changing environments. The study of PTMs could thus better reveal the regulation of de-etiolation.
