Cryptochromes interact directly with PIFs to control plant growth in limiting blue light

ABSTRACT: Sun-loving plants have the ability to detect and avoid shading through sensing of both blue and red light wavelengths. Higher plant cryptochromes (CRYs) control how plants modulate growth in response to changes in blue light. For growth under a canopy, where blue light is diminished, CRY1 and CRY2 perceive this change and respond by directly contacting two bHLH transcription factors, PIF4 and PIF5. These factors are also known to be controlled by phytochromes, the red/far-red photoreceptors; however, transcriptome analyses indicate that the gene regulatory programs induced by the different light wavelengths are distinct. Our results indicate that CRYs signal by modulating PIF activity genome-wide, and that these factors integrate binding of different plant photoreceptors to facilitate growth changes under different light conditions.

We performed whole-genome transcriptome (mRNA-seq) analysis on 5-day-old Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia wild-type (WT) and pif4pif5 seedlings exposed to low blue-light (LBL) or mock-treated for 1, 6 and 24 hours. In addition we performed mRNA-seq on WT, 35S::PIF4-9xMyc-6x-His-3xFlag(Flash) and 35S::PIF5-9xMyc-6x-His-3xFlag (Flash) seedlings treated with LBL or mock-treated for 16 hours.

Transcriptome analysis of Arabidopsis thaliana photoreceptor mutants impaired in UV and blue light signaling

Project description:Plants use sunlight as a source of energy for photosynthesis but also as an important environmental cue to regulate growth, development and light acclimation. Wavelengths in the UV-B (280-315 nm) and UV-A/blue (315-500 nm) regions of the spectrum are perceived by UV RESISTANCE LOCUS 8 (UVR8) and cryptochromes (CRY1 and CRY2), respectively. Despite recent advances in our understanding of how these photoreceptors promote photomorphogenesis, very little is known about the molecular mechanisms regulated by UVR8 and CRYs in sunlight exposed plants. Here, a factorial experiment was designed to assess the roles of UVR8 and CRYs in regulating transcriptome wide changes, hormone accumulation, and growth competence of Arabidopsis thaliana plants exposed to solar UV-B, UV-A, and blue radiation.

Transcriptomic measurements of Nannochloropsis oceanica CCMP1779 after pulses of blue or red light

Project description:We investigated light dependent gene expression changes in the marine ochrophyte Nannochloropsis oceanica CCMP1779. These algae have several putative blue light photoreceptors but appear to lack red light photoreceptors. To study early light signaling in N. oceanica and avoid as much as possible secondary downstream events, we quantified gene expression changes in dark-adapted cells after a short blue or red light pulse. More genes were differentially expressed under blue than under red light. In addition, fold change in expression was smaller for the red light-treated samples. For example, the median fold change of induced genes was 3 for blue light and 2.5 for red light. Moreover, hierarchical cluster analysis showed that gene expression after red light treatment was more similar to the dark control than after blue light treatment.

Co-condensation with photoexcited Cryptochromes facilitates MOS4-associated complex subunits 3A/3B to antagonize HY5 activities during photomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis

Project description:Cryptochromes (CRYs) is known as the key blue light receptors that promote photomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis, but to date, the underlying mechanisms are still not fully understood. Through interrogating the CRY2 interactome, we identified MOS4-ASSOCIATED COMPLEX subunits 3A and 3B (MAC3A and MAC3B) as blue light-independent CRY2 interacting partners. MAC3A/B proteins could be assembled into liquid nuclear condensates of CRYs in a blue light-dependent manner. Hypocotyl elongation is markedly repressed in mac3ab double knock-out mutants under various light conditions, which uncovers a previously unknown role of MAC3A/B as negative regulators in plant photomorphogenesis. Our results also uncover the noncanonical activities of MAC3A as the DNA-binding proteins that regulate transcription. Genome-wide mapping of MAC3A-binding sites reveals that blue light facilitates the binding of MAC3A to its targets, which is weakened in cry1cry2 mutants, suggesting that CRYs may enhance MAC3A activities in blue light to negatively influence photomorphogenesis. Interestingly, we observe that the genomic binding sites of MAC3A and HY5 are largely overlapped, and physical interactions between MAC3A and HY5 are detected as well. In addition, the in vitro DNA-binding assay shows that both proteins compete for the same DNA probe. These results indicate that MAC3A may antagonize the function of HY5 by competing for the common binding sites across the genome. Taken together, we propose that cryptochromes may fine-tune Arabidopsis photomorphogenesis by balancing the positive and negative effects on HY5 activities.

RNA-Seq analysis reveals the growth of Populus in different light qualities

Project description:Light plays a key role in plant growth, development and response to adversity. Plants perceive different wavelengths of light in the environment through various photoreceptors and regulate plant growth and development through light signaling. However, there are fewer studies on the effects of different light qualities on the growth and development of tree species at high altitude. In the study, the effects of blue and green light treatments on the growth and development of Populus cuttings were investigated. Blue light treatment significantly increased the high growth of Populus, while green light treatment showed the opposite trend. Consequently, blue light treatment demonstrated growth promotion by increasing the growth hormone content of Populus. This implies that Populus may benefit from blue light therapy in terms of growth and development, which may be helpful for further research into the introduction and cultivation of poplar species in high altitude regions.

Diatom phytochromes reveal the existence of far-red light based sensing in the ocean

Project description:The absorption of visible light in aquatic environments has led to the common assumption that aquatic organisms sense and adapt to penetrative blue/green light wavelengths, but show little or no response to the more attenuated red/far-red wavelengths. Here we show that two marine diatom species, Phaeodactylum tricornutum and Thalassiosira pseudonana, possess a bona fide red/far-red light sensing phytochrome (DPH) that uses biliverdin as a chromophore and displays accentuated red-shifted absorbance peaks compared to other characterized plant and algal phytochromes. Exposure to both red and far-red light causes changes in gene expression in P. tricornutum and the responses to far-red light disappear in DPH knockout cells, demonstrating that P. tricornutum DPH mediates far-red light signaling. The identification of DPH genes in diverse diatom species widely distributed along the water column further emphasizes the ecological significance of far-red light sensing, raising questions about the sources of far-red light. Our analyses indicate that, although far-red wavelengths from sunlight are only detectable at the ocean surface, chlorophyll fluorescence and Raman scattering can generate red/far-red photons in deeper layers. This study opens up novel perspectives on phytochrome-mediated far-red light signaling in the ocean and on the light sensing and adaptive capabilities of marine phototrophs.

RNA-seq studies using wheat PHYTOCHROME B and PHYTOCHROME C mutants reveal shared and specific functions in the regulation of flowering and shade-avoidance pathways

Project description:The phytochromes (PHYs) are a family of photoreceptors which absorb light of red and far-red wavelengths to modulate developmental responses in photosynthetic organisms. We developed knockout mutants of PHYB and PHYC in wheat and performed replicated RNA-seq studies to analyze and compare the regulons of each phytochrome under long day photoperiods.

A photoregulatory mechanism of the circadian clock in plants [MeRIP-seq]

Project description:Circadian clocks are the time-keeping cellular apparatuses that are photoentrained according to the day-night photocycles on Earth 1,2. Cryptochromes (CRYs) are photoreceptors mediating photoentrainment of the circadian clock in plants and animals but how CRYs mediate light regulation of the molecular clock remains unclear 1,3. Here we show that CRYs mediate photoresponses of the circadian clock by regulating the activity of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methyltransferase and photoresponses of the epitranscriptome. In contrast to the presently known CRY complexome, the CRY2-methyltransferase complex exbibits multivalent interactions and photoresponsive condensation in response to blue light. We show that photoexcited CRY2 undergoes phosphorylation-assisted demixing to form photobodies with the properties of condensed liquid phase, which facilitates assembly of the CRY2-methyltransferase complex in the condensed liquid phase of CRY2 in vivo. The mta mutant impaired in m6A methyltransferase and the cry1cry2 mutant missing CRY photoreceptors share common defects of lengthened circadian period, reduced m6A RNA methylation, and accelerated degradation of mRNAs encoding core components of the molecular clock. These results argue for a photoentrainment mechanism by which blue light elicits liquid-liquid phase separation of the CRY2-methyltransferase complex to regulate m6A mRNA methylation, consequently suppressing mRNA degradation and period lengthening of the circadian clock
