Identification of genes regulated by GIGANTEA (GI), the CYCLING DOF FACTORS (CDFs) and the GI-CDF module

ABSTRACT: Plants monitor and integrate temperature, photoperiod and light quality signals to respond to continuous changes in their environment. The GIGANTEA (GI) protein is central in diverse signaling pathways, including photoperiodic, sugar and light signaling pathways, stress responses and circadian clock regulation. Previously, GI was shown to activate expression of the key floral regulators CONSTANS (CO) and FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT) by facilitating degradation of a family of CYCLING DOF FACTOR (CDF) transcriptional repressors. However, whether CDFs are implicated in other processes regulated by GI remains unclear. We investigated the contribution of the GI-CDF module to traits that depend on GI. Transcriptome profiling indicated that mutations in GI and the CDFs have antagonistic effects on expression of a wider set of genes than CO and FT, whilst other genes are regulated by GI independently of the CDFs. Detailed expression studies followed by phenotypic assays showed that the CDFs function downstream of GI to control responses to freezing temperatures and growth, but are not necessary for proper clock function. Thus GI-mediated regulation of CDFs contributes to several processes in addition to flowering, but is not implicated in all of the phenotypes influenced by GI.

Seedlings of Col-0, the cdf1-R cdf2-1 cdf3-1 cdf5-1 quadruple mutant, gi-100 and gi-100 cdf1-R cdf2-1 cdf3-1 cdf5-1 quintuple mutant were grown for 10 days under LD conditions (16h light/8h dark). The aerial part of the seedlings was collected at ZT12 and RNA was prepared from three biological replicas

Various genetic interactions of GIGANTEA and EARLY FLOWERING 4 by a functional dominance during a day in Arabidopsis

Project description:Plants use their endogenous clock to regulate many physiological processes related to their survival and adaptability. GIGANTEA (GI), one of the clock proteins, contributes to the maintenance of circadian period length and amplitude and also regulates flowering time and hypocotyl growth in response to day length. In addition to GI, EARLY FLOWERING 4 (ELF4), another clock regulator, also contributes to these processes. However, little is known about the overall interactions between GI and ELF4 in Arabidopsis. In this study, we investigated the genetic interactions between GI and ELF4 in circadian output regulation. The results show that GI is dominant to ELF4 in flowering time determination, but ELF4 is dominant to GI in hypocotyl growth regulation. Moreover, GI and ELF4 have a synergistic effect on endogenous clock regulation. Further, gene expression profiling of gi-2, elf4, and gi-2 elf4 mutants confirmed that GI and ELF4 had differential dominant effects on circadian physiological outputs at dawn and dusk, respectively. This differential dominance of GI and ELF4 provides a potential means to achieve the diversity in the regulation of circadian physiological outputs including flowering time and hypocotyl growth.

Clock controlled and cold induced CDF6 alters growth and development to changing temperatures

Project description:The circadian clock represents a critical regulatory network, which allows plants to anticipate environmental changes as inputs and promote plant survival by regulating various physiological outputs. Here, we examine the function of the clock-regulated transcription factor, CYCLING DOF FACTOR 6 (CDF6), during cold stress in Arabidopsis thaliana. We found that the clock gates CDF6 transcript accumulation in the vasculature during cold stress. CDF6 mis-expression results in an altered flowering phenotype during both ambient and cold stress. A genome-wide transcriptome analysis links CDF6 to genes associated with flowering and seed germination during cold and ambient temperatures, respectively. Analysis of key floral regulators indicates that CDF6 alters flowering during cold stress by repressing photoperiodic flowering components, FLOWERING LOCUS T (FT), CONSTANS (CO), and BROTHER OF FT (BFT). Gene ontology enrichment further suggests that CDF6 regulates circadian and developmental associated genes. These results provide insight into how the clock-controlled CDF6 modulates plant development during moderate cold stress.

The function of the GIGANTEA gene StGI.04 in potato: Uncovering a new function affecting the anthocyanin content of tuber skin

Project description:GIGANTEA (GI) is a plant-specific, circadian clock-regulated, nuclear protein with pleiotropic functions studied in many plant species. It is involved in flowering, circadian clock control, chloroplast biogenesis, carbohydrate metabolism, stress responses and synthesis of volatiles. In potato (Solanum tuberosum L.), however, only its role in tuber initiation is reported. Based on the findings in other plant species we hypothesized that the function of GI is not restricted to tuberization in potato. To test this hypothesis we repressed the expression of a GI gene, StGI.04 in the commercial potato cultivar ‘Désirée’ and investigated the effect of repression at morphological and transcriptome level. We found that, like GI in other plant species, StGI.04 influences the expression of the key genes of circadian clock, flowering, starch synthesis and stress responses. Furthermore, we detected a novel function of a GI gene in influencing the anthocyanin synthesis and skin colour of potato tubers.

Differential roles of nuclear and cytosolic GI in regulating plant circadian system

Project description:GIGANTEA (GI) is an important modulator of plant circadian system. Recent studies have reported that protein GI is localized in both nucleus and cytosol, and nuclear and cytosolic GI exert differential effect on plant circadian clock. We first generated GI-null mutants and transgenic Arabidopsis plants that expressed GI fused to green fluorescent protein gene (GIpro::GI-GFP) and GI-GFP with a nuclear localization signal (GIpro::GI-GFP-NLS) or with a nuclear export signal (GIpro::GI-GFP-NES) under the control of native promoter in GI-null mutants. To investigate differential roles of nuclear and cytosolic GI in regulating plant circadian clock, we performed genome-wide gene expression profiling for wild-type plants and the GI-transgenic plants at morning and evening, and analyzed complementation patterns of gi-2 lesion by nuclear and cytosolic GI. As a result, we identified four complementation patterns representing genes affected by only nuclear GI (GIN) or cytosolic GI (GIC), those by either GIN or GIC, and those by the action of both GIN and GIC. Furthermore, we compared the transgenic plants expressing GIpro::GI-GFP with WT and the other GI-transgenic plants to confirm whether abnormally expressed genes by the gi-2 mutation can be complemented by restoring protein GI. Wild-type plants (Col), GI-null mutants (gi-2), and the other transgenic gi-2 plants expressing GIpro::GI-GFP (called GI plants), GIpro::GI-GFP-NLS (called GI-NLS plants), and GIpro::GI-GFP-NES (called GI-NES plants) were grown for seven days under conditions of 16 h light and 8 h dark (LD) and harvested at 1h (ZT1) and 16 hr (ZT16) after the light is turned on, representing morning and evening, respectively. mRNA levels were measured from three biological replicates of Col, gi-2, GI-NLS, GI-NES, and GI.

GIGANTEA recruits deubiquitylases, UBP12 and UBP13, to regulate accumulation of the ZTL photoreceptor complex

Project description:ZEILUPE (ZTL), a blue light photoreceptor with E3 ubiquitin ligase activity, communicates end-of-day light conditions to the circadian clock. To function properly, ZTL protein must accumulate but not destablilize target clock transcription factors before dusk, while in the dark ZTL mediates degradation of target proteins. It is not clear how ZTL can accumulate to high levels in the ligh while its targets remain stable. Two deubiquitylating enzymes, UBIQUITIN-SPECIFIC PROTEASE 12 and UBIQUITIN-SPECIFIC PROTEASE 13 (UBP12 and UBP13), which regulate colock period and protein ubiquitylation in a manner opposite to ZTL, were shown to associate with the ZTL protein complex. Here we demonstrate that the ZTL light-dependent interacting partner GIGANTEA (GI), recruites UBP12 and UBP13 to the ZTL photoreceptor complex.

Molecular interaction between PHO2 and GIGANTEA reveals a new crosstalk between flowering time and Pi homeostasis in rice

Project description:Using a yeast to hybrid screen, it was found that PHO2, a key regulator of phosphate homeostasis, could interact with GIGANTEA, a key regulator of flowering time. In addition, mutant analysis revealed that both the pho2 and gi mutants shared similar phenotypes, both at the phosphate and flowering time levels. We used microarrays to analyse the effects of each mutation (pho2 or gi) on global gene expression, and assessed the proportion of genes similalry regulated in both mutants, in both shoots and roots. Wild-type (Nipponbare), pho2 and gi knock-out rice plants were grown to 21-days before harvesting root and shoot separately.
