Project description:Brassinosteroids (BRs) are endogenous plant hormones and essential for normal plant growth and development. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) of Arabidopsis thaliana are involved in mediating cell proliferation in leaves, stress tolerance, and root development. The specifics of BRs mechanisms involving miRNAs are unknown. To explore the role of miRNAs in BR-mediated pathways, we analyzed differences in miRNA profiles between control (mock solution) and 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) treatments from customized miRNA microarrays. Seedlings were separately cultured under exogenous 10 nM EBR treatments for 30 (EBR30) or 180 (EBR180) minutes, and total RNAs of all seedlings were extracted after seven days of growth. Two independent experiments were performed at each time (30 or 180 minutes).

Project description:Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a class of class of phytohormones with important roles in regulating physiological and developmental processes. Small RNAs, including small interfering RNAs and microRNAs (miRNAs), are non-protein coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. However, the roles of small RNAs in BR response have not been studied well. In this study, we aimed to identify BR-responsive small RNA clusters and miRNAs in Arabidopsis. In addition, the effect of BR-responsive small RNAs on their transcripts and target genes were examined. Small RNA libraries were constructed from control and epibrassinolide-treated seedlings. After sequencing the small RNA libraries, differentially expressed small RNA clusters were identified by examining the expression levels of small RNAs in 100-nt bins of Arabidopsis genome. To identify the BR-responsive miRNAs, the expression levels of all the annotated mature miRNAs, registered in miRBase, were analyzed. Previously published RNA-seq data were utilized to monitor the BR-responsive expression patterns of differentially expressed small RNA clusters and miRNA target genes. In results, 38 BR-responsive small RNA clusters, including 30 down-regulated and eight up-regulated clusters, were identified. These differentially expressed small RNA clusters were from miRNA loci, transposons, protein-coding genes, pseudo genes and others. Of these, a transgene, BRI1, accumulates small RNAs, which are not found in the wild type. Small RNAs in this transgene are up-regulated by BRs while BRI1 mRNA is down-regulated by BRs. By analyzing the expression patterns of mature miRNAs, we have identified BR-repressed miR398a-5p and BR-induced miR156g. Although miR398a-5p is down-regulated by BRs, its predicted targets were not responsive to BRs. However, SPL3, a target of BR-inducible miR156g, is down-regulated by BRs. BR-responsive small RNAs and miRNAs identified in this study will provide an insight into the role of small RNAs in BR responses in plants. Especially, we suggest that miR156g/SPL3 module might play a role in BR-mediated growth and development in Arabidopsis.

Project description:Salt stress is a major environmental factor limiting plant growth and development. Previous studies have indicated that the steroidal hormones—brassinosteroids (BRs) are important regulators of plant responses to salt stress. We found that bes1-D, a gain-of-function mutant of the BR-regulated transcriptional factor BES1 (AT1G19350) in Arabidopsis showed better salt tolerance than the wild-type plant (Col-0). Label-free based LC-MS/MS and proteomic analyses were performed to investigate protein expression in bes1-D and wild-type in response to salt stress.

Project description:Brassinosteroids (BRs) are growth-promoting plant hormones that play a role in abiotic stress responses, but molecular modes that enable this activity remain largely unknown. Here we show that BRs participate in the regulation of freezing tolerance. BR signaling-defective mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana were hypersensitive to freezing before and after cold acclimation. The constitutive activation of BR signaling, in contrast, enhanced freezing resistance. Evidence is provided that the BR-controlled basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor CESTA (CES) can contribute to the constitutive expression of the C-REPEAT/DEHYDRATION-RESPONSIVE ELEMENT BINDING FACTOR (CBF) transcriptional regulators that control cold responsive (COR) gene expression. In addition, CBF-independent classes of BR-regulated COR genes are identified that are regulated in a BR- and CES-dependent manner during cold acclimation. A model is presented in which BRs govern different cold-responsive transcriptional cascades through the posttranslational modification of CES and redundantly acting factors. This contributes to the basal resistance against freezing stress, but also to the further improvement of this resistance through cold acclimation. We used microarray data to investigate the contribution of different pathways to cold tolerance of Arabidopsis thaliana .

Project description:Plant hormone brassinosteroids (BRs) and abscisic acids (ABA) antagonistically regulate many aspects of plant growth and responses. This study analyzes the molecular mechanisms by which regulate the crosstalk between BR and ABA signaling.Various BR deficient and gain-of-function signaling mutants were used to analyze their responses to ABA inhibited primary root growth. RNA sequencing was performed to identify the ABA regulated root genes that are also regulated by BR signaling components.Our result demonstrated that BR signaling negative regulates plant ABA response, and the crosstalk is mediated by BIN2 and BZR1. RNA sequencing has identified subsets of ABA responsive root genes that were regulated by BIN2 and/or BZR1. ChIP-qPCR and EMSA assays showed that BZR1 could bind directly with several G-box cis-elements on ABI5 promoter, suppress the expression of ABI5 and makes plant insensitive to ABA.These data demonstrated that ABI5 is a BZR1 direct targeted gene. Regulation of ABI5 expression by BZR1 plays important roles in regulating the crosstalk between BR and ABA signaling pathways.

Project description:Brassinosteroids (BRs) are growth-promoting steroid hormones in plants. BRs affect plant growth by regulating panels of downstream genes. Much effort has been made to establish BR-regulated gene expression networks, but these published expression networks poorly overlap. To address this, here we build an optimal BR-regulated gene expression network. 7- and 24-day-old seedlings of constitutive photomorphogenesis and dwarfism (cpd) mutant and bri1-701 (brassinosteroid-insensitive 1) brl1 (BRI1-like receptor genes 1) brl3 (BRI1-like receptor genes 3) triple mutant seedlings were treated with brassinolide (BL), and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) was used to detect differentially expressed genes (DEGs). By this approach, we generated a transcriptomic database of 4498 DEGs and identified 110 transcription factors specifically respond to BR at different stage. Moreover, we found that among the identified BR-responsive transcription factors, ABSCISIC ACID-INSENSlTIVE4 (ABI4), an ethylene response factor (ERF) transcription factor, inhibits BR-regulated growth. Compared to wild-type plants, the abi4-102 mutant was less sensitive to brassinazole (BRZ) and more sensitive to BR. Next, we performed a chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) assay and found that ABI4 directly binds to the BAK1 (BRI1 Associated receptor Kinase 1) promoter and inhibits transcription. These results provide new insights into BR-responsive gene functions in regulating plant growth at different stages and may serve as a basis for predicting gene function, selecting candidate genes, and improving the understanding of BR regulatory pathways.

Project description:Brassinosteroids (BRs) are a group of plant steroid hormones that play crucial roles various of growth and developmental processes. Biological function and signal transduction pathway of BR has been well characterized in model plants like Arabidopsis and rice. However, their biological roles are still unclear in tree species, especially in an important non-timber plant moso bamboo, which has great ecological and economic value and distinguish fast-growth feature. Here we reported that reduce endogenous brassinosteroid by biosynthesis inhibitor propiconazole reduced both root and shoot growth in seedling stage. Exogenous BR application promoted shoot bract elongation and inclination of lamina joint and bract. Genome-wide transcriptome analysis were performed to identify hundreds of differential expressed genes by BR and propiconazole treatment in shoot and root parts of bamboo seedling, respectively. GO analysis revealed that BR regulates cell wall related genes, hydrogen peroxide catabolic genes and auxin related genes to promote bamboo root development and elongation. Our study identified BR response genes and provides a comprehensive resource for molecular mechanism research of bamboo growth.

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.
