The biosynthesis of storage reserves and auxin is coordinated by a hierarchical regulatory network in maize endosperm [ChIP-seq]

ABSTRACT: Grain filling in maize (Zea mays L.) is intricately linked to cell development, involving the regulation of genes responsible for the biosynthesis of storage reserves (starch, proteins, and lipids) and phytohormones. However, the regulatory network coordinating these biological functions remains unclear. In this study, we identified 1,744 high-confidence target genes co-regulated by the transcription factors (TFs) ZmNAC128 and ZmNAC130 (ZmNAC128/130) through chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing coupled with RNA-seq analysis in the zmnac128/130 loss-of-function mutants. We further constructed a hierarchical regulatory network using DNA affinity purification sequencing analysis of downstream TFs regulated by ZmNAC128/130. In addition to target genes involved in the biosynthesis of starch and zeins, we discovered novel target genes of ZmNAC128/130 involved in the biosynthesis of lipids and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Consistently, the number of oil bodies, as well as the contents of triacylglycerol and IAA were significantly reduced in zmnac128/130. The hierarchical regulatory network centered by ZmNAC128/130 revealed a significant overlap between the direct target genes of ZmNAC128/130 and their downstream TFs, particularly in regulating the biosynthesis of storage reserves and IAA. Our results indicated that the biosynthesis of storage reserves and IAA is coordinated by a multi-TFs hierarchical regulatory network in maize endosperm.

Chromatin accessibility landscapes revealed the subgenome-divergent regulation networks during wheat grain development [ATAC-seq]

Project description:Development of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain mainly depends on the processes of starch synthesis and storage protein accumulation, which are critical for grain yield and quality. However, the regulatory network underlying the transcriptional and physiological changes of grain development is still not clear. Here, we combined ATAC-seq and RNA-seq to discover the chromatin accessibility and gene expression dynamics during these processes. We found that the chromatin accessibility changes are tightly associated with differential expressions and the proportion of distal ACRs were increased gradually during grain development. Specific transcription factor (TF) binding sites were enriched at different stages, and were diversified among the 3 subgenomes. We further predicted the potential interactions between key TFs and genes related with starch and storage protein biosynthesis and found different copies of some key TFs played diversified roles. Overall, our findings have provided numerous resources and illustrated the regulatory network during wheat grain development, which would shed lights on the improvement of wheat yields and qualities.

Characterization and transcriptome analysis of maize small kernel mutant smk7a in different development stages

Project description:The kernel serves as a storage organ for various nutrients and determines the yield and quality of maize. Understanding the mechanisms regulating kernel development is important for maize production. In this study, a small kernel mutant smk7a of maize was characterized. Cytological observation suggested that the development of the endosperm and embryo was arrested in smk7a in the early development stage. Biochemical tests revealed that the starch, zein protein, and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) contents were significantly lower in smk7a compared with wild-type (WT). Consistent with the defective development phenotype, transcriptome analysis of the kernels 12 and 20 days after pollination (DAP) revealed that the starch, zein, and auxin biosynthesis related genes were dramatically downregulated in smk7a. Genetic mapping indicated that the mutant was controlled by a recessive gene located on chromosome 2. Our results suggest that disrupted nutrition accumulation and auxin synthesis cause the defective endosperm and embryo development of smk7a.

Project description:We performed a molecular characterization of the maize small kernel mutant with endosperm developmental deficiency phenotypes.To elucidate how SMK8 affects kernel development, we performed RNA sequencing (RNA-seq), and the results revealed numerous differentially expressed genes related to storage proteins and starch biosynthesis and biosynthesis of amino acids.

Project description:Like many microalgae unicellular green alga, Chlamydomonas reinhardtii also accumulates energy rich storage lipid and starch under nutrient-limited conditions, such as phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (N) limitation. To dissect the transcriptional regulation of lipid and starch biosynthesis in response to nutrient limitation, we have characterized the biological role of a candidate regulator: the MYB family transcription factor, PSR1 (phosphorus starvation response 1). Genetically modified (psr1 compromised) and wild-type lines were grown under P limiting and sufficient conditions and assayed at two time points by SOLiD RNA-seq.

Transcriptome and differential gene expression analysis for nacRNAi and non-transgenic sibling

Project description:We report the transcriptome profile of the developing maize endosperm of nacRNAi. The nacRNAi is the transgenic maize which knocks down the expression of both ZmNAC128 and ZmNAC130 in the developing endosperm.ZmNAC128 and ZmNAC130 are the two maize endosperm-specific NAC-type transcription factors. This study finds that nacRNAi has a broad effect on the accumulation of starch and protein by regulating their main synthetic genes.

Architecture of the genome-wide transcriptional regulatory network reveals the dynamic biological functions and divergent evolutionary trajectory in Pseudomonas syringae

Project description:The model Gram-negative plant pathogen Pseudomonas syringae utilizes hundreds of transcription factors (TFs) to manipulate its functional processes, including virulence and metabolic pathways to control its infection to host plants. Although the molecular mechanisms of regulators have been studied for decades, the comprehensive understanding throughout the genome-wide TFs in P. syringae remains uncertain. Here, we set out to investigate the binding characteristics of 170 of all 301 annotated TFs using ChIP-seq. To further explore and delineate the physiological and pathogenic roles of TFs in P. syringae, we integrated both the 118 different position weight matrix (PWM) motifs of 100 TFs analyzed by HT-SELEX previously and more than 26000 direct interactions of 170 TFs here, mapped the hierarchical regulatory network not only between TFs but also within TFs and target genes. We next investigated the co-association statistics across the 26000 interactions and identified the high co_x0002_association scores of bottom TFs in the hierarchical network. The evolution analysis revealed the functional variability of TFs between different pathovars of P. syringae. Topological modularity network of all ChIPed TFs and their targets exhibited the various biological functions. Overall, our work provided the global transcriptional regulatory network of genome-wide TFs in P. syringae, including 35 virulence_x0002_associated and metabolic TFs, which promoted the development of effective treatment and prevention strategies for the related infectious diseases.
