Rice OsAAA-ATPase1 is Induced during Blast Infection in a Salicylic Acid-Dependent Manner, and Promotes Blast Fungus Resistance.

ABSTRACT: Fatty acids (FAs) have been implicated in signaling roles in plant defense responses. We previously reported that mutation or RNAi-knockdown (OsSSI2-kd) of the rice OsSSI2 gene, encoding a stearoyl acyl carrier protein FA desaturase (SACPD), remarkably enhanced resistance to blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae and the leaf-blight bacterium Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo). Transcriptomic analysis identified six AAA-ATPase family genes (hereafter OsAAA-ATPase1-6) upregulated in the OsSSI2-kd plants, in addition to other well-known defense-related genes. Here, we report the functional analysis of OsAAA-ATPase1 in rice's defense response to M. oryzae. Recombinant OsAAA-ATPase1 synthesized in Escherichia coli showed ATPase activity. OsAAA-ATPase1 transcription was induced by exogenous treatment with a functional analogue of salicylic acid (SA), benzothiadiazole (BTH), but not by other plant hormones tested. The transcription of OsAAA-ATPase1 was also highly induced in response to M. oryzae infection in an SA-dependent manner, as gene induction was significantly attenuated in a transgenic rice line expressing a bacterial gene (nahG) encoding salicylate hydroxylase. Overexpression of OsAAA-ATPase1 significantly enhanced pathogenesis-related gene expression and the resistance to M. oryzae; conversely, RNAi-mediated suppression of this gene compromised this resistance. These results suggest that OsAAA-APTase1 plays an important role in SA-mediated defense responses against blast fungus M. oryzae.

Project description:Autophagy is essential for appressorium-mediated plant infection by Magnaporthe oryzae, the causal agent of rice blast disease and a major threat to global food security. The regulatory mechanism of pathogenicity-associated autophagy, however, remains largely unknown. Here, we report the identification and functional characterization of a plausible ortholog of yeast SNT2 in M. oryzae, which we term MoSNT2. Deletion mutants of MoSNT2 are compromised in autophagy homeostasis and display severe defects in autophagy-dependent fungal cell death and pathogenicity. These mutants are also impaired in infection structure development, conidiation, oxidative stress tolerance and cell wall integrity. MoSnt2 recognizes histone H3 acetylation through its PHD1 domain and thereby recruits the histone deacetylase complex, resulting in deacetylation of H3. MoSnt2 binds to promoters of autophagy genes MoATG6, 15, 16, and 22 to regulate their expression. In addition, MoTor controls MoSNT2 expression to regulate MoTor signaling which leads to autophagy and rice infection. Our study provides evidence of a direct link between MoSnt2 and MoTor signaling and defines a novel epigenetic mechanism by which MoSNT2 regulates infection-associated autophagy and plant infection by the rice blast fungus.AbbreviationsM. oryzae: Magnaporthe oryzae; S. cerevisiae: Saccharomyces cerevisiae; F. oxysporum: Fusarium oxysporum; U. maydis: Ustilago maydis; Compl.: complemented strains of ?Mosnt2 expressing MoSNT2-GFP; ATG: autophagy-related; HDAC: histone deacetylase complex; Tor: target of rapamycin kinase; MTOR: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase in mammals; MoSnt2: DNA binding SaNT domain protein in M. oryzae; MoTor: target of rapamycin kinase in M. oryzae; MoAtg8: autophagy-related protein 8 in M. oryzae; MoHos2: hda one similar protein in M. oryzae; MoeIf4G: eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4 G in M. oryzae; MoRs2: ribosomal protein S2 in M. oryzae; MoRs3: ribosomal protein S3 in M. oryzae; MoIcl1: isocitrate lyase in M. oryzae; MoSet1: histone H3K4 methyltransferase in M. oryzae; Asd4: ascus development 4; Abl1: AMP-activated protein kinase ? subunit-like protein; Tig1: TBL1-like gene required for invasive growth; Rpd3: reduced potassium dependency; KAT8: lysine (K) acetyltransferase 8; PHD: plant homeodomain; ELM2: Egl-27 and MTA1 homology 2; GFP: green fluorescent protein; YFP: yellow fluorescent protein; YFPCTF: C-terminal fragment of YFP; YFPNTF: N-terminal fragment of YFP; GST: glutathione S-transferase; bp: base pairs; DEGs: differentially expressed genes; CM: complete medium; MM-N: minimum medium minus nitrogen; CFW: calcofluor white; CR: congo red; DAPI: 4', 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole; BiFC: bimolecular fluorescence complementation; RT: reverse transcription; PCR: polymerase chain reaction; qPCR: quantitative polymerase chain reaction; RNAi: RNA interference; ChIP: chromatin immunoprecipitation.
