Genome-Wide Analysis of the YABBY Transcription Factor Family in Pineapple and Functional Identification of AcYABBY4 Involvement in Salt Stress.

ABSTRACT: The plant-specific transcription factor gene family, YABBY, belongs to the subfamily of zinc finger protein superfamily and plays an essential regulatory role in lateral organ development. In this study, nine YABBY genes were identified in the pineapple genome. Seven of them were located on seven different chromosomes and the remaining two were located on scaffold 1235. Through protein structure prediction and protein multiple sequence alignment, we found that AcYABBY3, AcYABBY5 and AcYABBY7 lack a C2 structure in their N-terminal C2C2 zinc finger protein structure. Analysis of the cis-acting element indicated that all the seven pineapple YABBY genes contain multiple MYB and MYC elements. Further, the expression patterns analysis using the RNA-seq data of different pineapple tissues indicated that different AcYABBYs are preferentially expressed in various tissues. RT-qPCR showed that the expression of AcYABBY2, AcYABBY3, AcYABBY6 and AcYABBY7 were highly sensitive to abiotic stresses. Subcellular localization in pineapple protoplasts, tobacco leaves and Arabidopsis roots showed that all the seven pineapple YABBY proteins were nucleus localized. Overexpression of AcYABBY4 in Arabidopsis resulted in short root under NaCl treatment, indicating a negative regulatory role of AcYABBY4 in plant resistance to salt stress. This study provides valuable information for the classification of pineapple AcYABBY genes and established a basis for further research on the functions of AcYABBY proteins in plant development and environmental stress response.

Project description:Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) is known as a critical enzyme responsible for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) generation in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), and has an essential function in modulating redox homeostasis and stress responsiveness. In the present work, we characterized the nine members of the G6PDH gene family in soybean. Phylogenic analysis and transit peptide prediction showed that these soybean G6PDHs are divided into plastidic (P) and cytosolic (Cy) isoforms. The subcellular locations of five GmG6PDHs were further verified by confocal microscopy in Arabidopsis mesophyll protoplasts. The respective GmG6PDH genes had distinct expression patterns in various soybean tissues and at different times during seed development. Among them, the Cy-G6PDHs were strongly expressed in roots, developing seeds and nodules, while the transcripts of P-G6PDHs were mainly detected in green tissues. In addition, the activities and transcripts of GmG6PDHs were dramatically stimulated by different stress treatments, including salt, osmotic and alkali. Notably, the expression levels of a cytosolic isoform (GmG6PDH2) were extraordinarily high under salt stress and correlated well with the G6PDH enzyme activities, possibly implying a crucial factor for soybean responses to salinity. Enzymatic assay of recombinant GmG6PDH2 proteins expressed in Escherichia coli showed that the enzyme encoded by GmG6PDH2 had functional NADP+-dependent G6PDH activity. Further analysis indicated overexpression of GmG6PDH2 gene could significantly enhance the resistance of transgenic soybean to salt stress by coordinating with the redox states of ascorbic acid and glutathione pool to suppress reactive oxygen species generation. Together, these results indicate that GmG6PDH2 might be the major isoform for NADPH production in PPP, which is involved in the modulation of cellular AsA-GSH cycle to prevent the oxidative damage induced by high salinity.
