Soybean MAPK, GMK1 is dually regulated by phosphatidic acid and hydrogen peroxide and translocated to nucleus during salt stress.

ABSTRACT: Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) is activated by various biotic and abiotic stresses. Salt stress induces two well-characterized MAPK activating signaling molecules, phosphatidic acid (PA) via phospholipase D and phospholipase C, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) via nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH)-oxidase. In our previous study, the activity of soybean MAPK, GMK1 was strongly induced within 5 min of 300 mM NaCl treatment and this early activity was regulated by PA. In this study, we focused on the regulation of GMK1 at the later stage of the salt stress, because its activity was strongly persistent for up to 30 min. H(2)O(2) activated GMK1 even in the presence of PA generation inhibitors, but GMK1 activity was greatly decreased in the presence of diphenyleneiodonium, an inhibitor of NADPH-oxidase after 5 min of the treatment. On the contrary, the n-butanol and neomycin reduced GMK1 activity within 5 min of the treatment. Thus, GMK1 activity may be sustained by H(2)O(2) 10 min after the treatment. Further, GMK1 was translocated into the nucleus 60 min after NaCl treatment. In the relationship between GMK1 and ROS generation, ROS generation was reduced by SB202190, a MAPK inhibitor, but was increased in protoplast overexpressing TESD-GMKK1. However, these effects were occurred at prolonged time of NaCl treatment. These data suggest that GMK1 indirectly regulates ROS generation. Taken together, we propose that soybean GMK1 is dually regulated by PA and H(2)O(2) at a time dependant manner and translocated to the nucleus by the salt stress signal.

Project description:Preexposure to a low concentration of H2O2 significantly increases the survivability of catalase-negative streptococci in the presence of a higher concentration of H2O2 However, the mechanisms of this adaptation remain unknown. Here, using a redox proteomics assay, we identified 57 and 35 cysteine-oxidized proteins in Streptococcus oligofermentans bacteria that were anaerobically cultured and then pulsed with 40 μM H2O2 and that were statically grown in a 40-ml culture, respectively. The oxidized proteins included the peroxide-responsive repressor PerR, the manganese uptake repressor MntR, thioredoxin system proteins Trx and Tpx, and most glycolytic proteins. Cysteine oxidations of these proteins were verified through redox Western blotting, immunoprecipitation, and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry assays. In particular, Zn2+-coordinated Cys139 and Cys142 mutations eliminated the H2O2 oxidation of PerR, and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry detected significantly decreased amounts of Zn2+ in H2O2-treated PerR, demonstrating that cysteine oxidation results in Zn2+ loss. An electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) determined that the DNA binding of Mn2+-bound PerR protein (PerR:Zn,Mn) was abolished by H2O2 treatment but was restored by dithiothreitol reduction, verifying that H2O2 inactivates streptococcal PerR:Zn,Mn through cysteine oxidation, analogous to the findings for MntR. Quantitative PCR and EMSA demonstrated that tpx, mntA, mntR, and dpr belonged to the PerR regulons but that only dpr was directly regulated by PerR; mntA was also controlled by MntR. Deletion of mntR significantly reduced the low-H2O2-concentration-induced adaptation of S. oligofermentans to a higher H2O2 concentration, while the absence of PerR completely abolished the self-protection. Therefore, a low H2O2 concentration resulted in the cysteine-reversible oxidations of PerR and MntR to derepress their regulons, which function in cellular metal and redox homeostasis and which endow streptococci with the antioxidative capability. This work reveals a novel Cys redox-based H2O2 defense strategy employed by catalase-negative streptococci in Mn2+-rich cellular environments.IMPORTANCE The catalase-negative streptococci produce as well as tolerate high levels of H2O2 This work reports the molecular mechanisms of low-H2O2-concentration-induced adaptation to higher H2O2 stress in a Streptococcus species, in which the peroxide-responsive repressor PerR and its redox regulons play the major role. Distinct from the Bacillus subtilis PerR, which is inactivated by H2O2 through histidine oxidation by the Fe2+-triggered Fenton reaction, the streptococcal PerR is inactivated by H2O2 oxidation of the structural Zn2+ binding cysteine residues and thus derepresses the expression of genes defending against oxidative stress. The reversible cysteine oxidation could provide flexibility for PerR regulation in streptococci, and the mechanism might be widely used by lactic acid bacteria, including pathogenic streptococci, containing high levels of cellular manganese, in coping with oxidative stress. The adaptation mechanism could also be applied in oral hygiene by facilitating the fitness and adaptability of the oral commensal streptococci to suppress the pathogens.

Project description:Autophagy, an evolutionally conserved cellular degradation process, plays critical roles in plant development and stress response. Despite the wealth of information on the vital role of autophagy in responses to environmental stresses, little is known about the regulation of autophagy. In this study, we demonstrated that spermidine (Spd), a kind of polyamine, was involved in the regulation of salt tolerance through activating the expression of ATG (autophagy-related) genes and the formation of autophagosomes in cucumber under salt stress. Furthermore, NADPH oxidase-derived apoplastic H2O2-mediated Spd-induced salt tolerance and autophagy. Exogenous Spd significantly increased the tolerance to salt stress and inhibited the accumulation and ubiquitination of insoluble proteins. Foliar application of Spd promoted the transcript levels of ATG genes and autophagosomes formation. Besides, Spd induced the expression of RBOH (respiratory burst oxidase homolog), and the accumulation of H2O2 both in leaves and roots. However, either pretreatment with dimethylthiourea (DMTU, an H2O2 scavenger) or diphenyleneiodonium chloride (DPI, an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase) reduced Spd-induced accumulation of apoplastic H2O2. Importantly, Spd-induced salt tolerance and autophagy were compromised when plants were pretreated with DMTU or DPI. Furthermore, the silencing of ATG4 and ATG7 reduced Spd-induced salt tolerance and autophagosomes formation. Taken together, these results revealed that RBOH-dependent H2O2 mediated the Spd-induced autophagy and salt tolerance in cucumber.Abbreviations: Asat: light-saturated rate of CO2 assimilation; ATG: autophagy-related; DCF-DA: 2, 7-dichlorofluorescein diacetate; DMTU: dimethylthiourea; DPI: diphenyleneiodonium chloride; DW: dry weight; EL: electrolyte leakage; FW: fresh weight; Fv/Fm: the maximum quantum yield of photosystem II; GFP: green fluorescent protein; MDC: monodansylcadaverine; PDS: phytoene desaturase; PE: phosphatidylethanolamine; PLD: phospholipase D; RBOH: respiratory burst oxidase homolog; ROS: reactive oxygen species; SDS-PAGE: sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis; SIN1: salt induced NAC1; Spd: spermidine; TOR: target of rapamycin; VIGS: virus-induced gene silencing.
