Genome-wide analysis of the BR response in msg2 and axr2

ABSTRACT: Although a wide range of interactions between BRs and auxin have been recognized, knowledge about the direct molecular mechanism of interaction between them in specific physiological processes is very limited. In this study we found that auxin resisitent mutant msg2/iaa19 and arf7 were also resisitant to the BR effect on morphogenensis of dark-grown Arabidosis seedlings. Moreover, BR signaling transcription factor BZR1 can directly bind to promoter regions of IAA19 and ARF7. Microarray analysis revealed that a number of gene transcripts showed reduced BR response in msg2 and the control mutant axr2, suggesting the crucial role of IAA19 in mediating BR effects. Taken together, our results suggested that BRs regulate morphogenesis of dark-grown seedling by employing auxin signaling components IAA19 and ARF7. Four-day-old seedlings of WT, msg2 and axr2 grown on MS medium in the absence or presence of 24-eBL (100 nM) were used. Total RNA extraction and ATH1 microarray(Affymetrix) experiments were performend according to manufacturerM-bM-^@M-^Ys protocols. Raw data were normalized by MAS 5.0 algorithm, Gene Spring Software 11.0. All experiments including two biological replicates and the Pearson correlation coefficient was analyzed to check the replicate quality.

Brassinosteroids (BRs) are an important class of phytohormones which regulates a wide range of physiological processes. Genetic and physiological studies have revealed that BR responses usually depend on an intact auxin signaling pathway. Here, we demonstrate that high BR concentration or enhanced BR signaling induce the differential growth of etiolated hypocotyls and result in the morphological changes, while auxin-resistant mutants, msg2 (dominant mutant of IAA19) and arf7, are insensitive to ...[more]

Project description:The proper transition between the skotomorphogenic and photomorphogenic developmental programs is key for seedling survival and it is therefore tightly regulated. Besides light, which is the major cue that triggers this transition, several hormone pathways participate in this control, mainly antagonizing the light effect. Two of these hormones are gibberellins (GA) and brassinosteroids (BR). Both hormones promote the skotomorphogenesis and prevent photomorphogenesis, as evidenced by the partially de-etiolated phenotype caused by GA or BR deficiency, or by a blockage in the respective signaling pathways. We have previously shown that BR mediate GA activity in the control of this transition. For instance, treatment of dark-grown, GA-deficient seedlings with BRs was able to partially restore morphological phenotypes such as hypocotyl growth, and importantly to restore completely the molecular phenotype of CAB2 and RbcS gene expression. On the contrary, GA-treatment did not alter the same phenotypes in the BR deficient det2 mutant. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate to what extent BRs mediate GA activity in dark-grown seedlings, and for that purpose we have the examined global changes in gene expression caused by treatment with GA and BRs in BR- and GA-deficient seedlings, respectively. We performed two sets of experiments, each one including three different samples. The first experiment included dark-grown, WT Col-0 mock-treated seedlings, or seedlings treated with either the GA biosynthesis inhibitor paclobutrazol (PAC) or with PAC+epibrassinolide (EBR). In this experiment, PAC samples were labelled with Cy3 and compared to WT and PAC+EBR samples, which were labelled with Cy5. Two biological repeast were performed. The second experiment included dark-grown, WT Col-0 seedlings and the det2-1 mutant, which was either mock-treated or treated with GA3. Two biological replicates were performed, in the first one the WT and det2-1+GA3 were labelled with Cy3 and the det2-1 sample with Cy5. The reverse labelling was used in the second replicate.

Project description:Light and brassinosteroids (BRs) have been proved to be crucial in regulating plant growth and development, however, the mechanism of how they synergistically function is still largely unknown. To explore the underlying mechanisms in photomorphogenesis, genome-wide analyses were carried out through examining the gene expressions of the dark-grown WT or BR biosynthesis-defective mutant det2 seedlings in presence of light stimuli, or exogenous Brassinolide (BL). Results showed that BR deficiency stimulates, while BL treatment suppresses, the expressions of light responsive genes and photomorphogenesis, revealing the negative effects of BR in photomorphogenesis. This is consistent with that genes involved in cell wall modification and cellular metabolism were specifically modulated by BL during dark-light transition, and altered expressions of genes related to energy utilization. Further analysis revealed that hormone biosynthesis and signaling related genes, especially those of auxin, were altered under BL treatment or light stimuli, indicating that BR may modulate photomorphogenesis through synergetic regulation with other hormones. Additionally, suppressed ubiquitin-cycle pathway during light-dark transition hinted the presence of a complicated network among light, hormone and protein degradation. The study provides the direct evidence of BR effects in photomorphogenesis and identified the genes involved in BR and light signaling pathway, which will help to elucidate the molecular mechanism of plant photomorphogenesis. In order to study how BR involves in photomorphogenesis, dark-grown wild-type or BR- deficient mutant det2 seedlings were treated with BL or light, gene expression pattern analysis confirmed that BR deficiency specifically induces, while BL treatment suppresses, the expression of photosynthesis and light responsive genes. Interplay of BR and other hormones play important roles in dark-light transition and photomorphogenesis. CEL files for the wildtype samples are lost. 14 samples were analysised and including repeats.
