Project description:The adaptation strategies and regulatory networks behind the adaptation of D. shibae DFL12T to nitrosative stress under anaerobic starvation was investigated. Furthermore, the role of the oxygen sensing regulator FnrL and the heme coordinating regulators DnrD and DnrF were determined under nitrosative stress conditions. Therefore transcriptional analyses were performed using regulator knock out strains.

Project description:In plants, much like in animals, nitric oxide (NO) has been established as an important gaseous signaling molecule. However, contrary to animal systems, NO-sensitive or NO-responsive proteins that bind NO in the form of a sensor or participating in redox reactions have remained elusive. Here, we applied a search term constructed based on conserved and functionally annotated amino acids at the centers of Heme Nitric Oxide/Oxygen (H-NOX) domains in annotated and experimentally-tested gas-binding proteins from lower and higher eukaryotes, in order to identify candidate NO-binding proteins in Arabidopsis thaliana. The selection of candidate NO-binding proteins identified from the motif search was supported by structural modeling. This approach identified AtLRB3 (At4g01160), a member of the Light Response Bric-a-Brac/Tramtrack/Broad Complex (BTB) family, as a candidate NO-binding protein. AtLRB3 was heterologously expressed and purified, and then tested for NO-response. Spectroscopic data confirmed that AtLRB3 contains a histidine-ligated heme cofactor and importantly, the addition of NO to AtLRB3 yielded absorption characteristics reminiscent of canonical H-NOX proteins. Furthermore, substitution of the heme iron-coordinating histidine at the H-NOX center with a leucine strongly impaired the NO-response. Our finding therefore established AtLRB3 as a NO-interacting protein and future characterizations will focus on resolving the nature of this response.

Project description:We report on the identification of nitric-oxide regulated H3K9/14ac sites in Arabidopsis. For this purpose liquid grown Arabidopsis seedlings were treated with the natural NO-donor S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO), GSNO in combination with the NO-scavenger cPTIO, GSH (control) or TSA (positive control). Material was crosslinked and harvested 3h and 16h after onset of the treatments. Then, quantitative analysis of the H3K9/14ac patterns across these treatment was performed using DiffBind. By comparison of the GSNO and GSNO/cPTIO treatment, NO-regulated H3K9/14ac sites were identified. These sites were then annotated to the nearest TSS. GO enrichment analysis revealed that NO affects H3K9/14ac at many stress-responsive and photosynthetic genes.

Project description:Advances in next-generation sequencing technologies facilitate the study of plant molecular functions in detail and with precision. Plant genome and proteome databases are continually being updated with large transcriptomic or genomic datasets. With the ever-increasing amount of sequencing data, several thousands of genes or proteins in public databases remain uncharacterized, and their domain functions are largely unknown. Such proteins contain domains of unknown function (DUF). In the present study, we identified 231 upregulated and 206 downregulated DUF genes from the available RNA-Seq-based transcriptome profiling datasets of Arabidopsis leaves exposed to a nitric oxide donor, S-nitroso-L-cysteine (CysNO). In addition, we performed extensive in silico and biological experiments to determine the potential functions of AtDUF569 and to elucidate its role in plant growth, development, and defense. We validated the expression pattern of the most upregulated and the most downregulated DUF genes from the transcriptomic data. In addition, a loss-of AtDUF569 function mutant was evaluated for growth, development, and defense against biotic and abiotic stresses. According to the results of the study, AtDUF569 negatively regulates biotic stress responses and differentially regulates plant growth under nitro-oxidative stress conditions.

Project description:Nitric oxide (NO) is a key signaling molecule in plants, regulating a wide range of physiological processes. However, its origin in plants remains unclear. It can be generated from nitrite through a reductive pathway, notably via the action of the nitrate reductase (NR), and evidence suggests an additional oxidative pathway, involving arginine. From an initial screen of potential Arabidopsis thaliana mutants impaired in NO production, we identified copper amine oxidase 8 (CuAO8). Two cuao8 mutant lines displayed a decreased NO production in seedlings after elicitor treatment and salt stress. The NR-dependent pathway was not responsible for the impaired NO production as no change in NR activity was found in the mutants. However, total arginase activity was strongly increased in cuao8 knockout mutants after salt stress. Moreover, NO production could be restored in the mutants by arginase inhibition or arginine addition. Furthermore, arginine supplementation reversed the root growth phenotype observed in the mutants. These results demonstrate that CuAO8 participates in NO production by influencing arginine availability through the modulation of arginase activity. The influence of CuAO8 on arginine-dependent NO synthesis suggests a new regulatory pathway for NO production in plants.

Project description:Nitric oxide (NO) is involved in all major environmental stresses. However, most of these understandings were mainly based on pharmacological study using NO modulator compounds. Recently, our studies together with others provided a new class of plant experimental system with specific in vivo NO release through constitutively overexpressing rat neuronal NO synthase (nNOS) in plants. In this study, we found that the nNOS transgenic Arabidopsis plants displayed lower level of H2O2 content, but higher levels of antioxidant enzyme activities and osmolytes under drought stress conditions. Transcriptomic analysis identified 490 and 20 genes that were differentially expressed in wild type (WT) and nNOS transgenic plants under control and drought stress conditions, respectively. Pathway analysis revealed that many genes involved in photosynthesis, cell, misc, co-factor and vitamin metabolism, major CHO metabolism, OPP and secondary metabolism were largely changed in nNOS vs. WT under control or drought stress conditions. Interestingly, CBF1/2 and 13 zinc finger family proteins, known as important family of transcription regulators in modulating several stress-responsive genes, were differentially expressed by nNOS transgenic effect. Additionally, some genes were commonly regulated by nNOS transgenic and abscisic acid (ABA) effects, indicating new insights to cross-talk between ABA and NO. Taken together, in vivo NO modulated antioxidant enzyme activities, osmolyte level, and the expression of genes involved in several pathways, thereby resulting in enhanced stress tolerance in nNOS transgenic plants. These observations might provide some insights to understand the physiological and molecular mechanisms of NO in response to drought stress in Arabidopsis.

Project description:AtNOS1 was previously identified as a potential nitric-oxide synthase (NOS) in Arabidopsis thaliana, despite lack of sequence similarity to animal NOSs. Although the dwarf and yellowish leaf phenotype of Atnos1 knock-out mutant plants can be rescued by treatment with exogenous NO, doubts have recently been raised as to whether AtNOS1 is a true NOS. Moreover, depending on the type of physiological responses studied, Atnos1 is not always deficient in NO induction and/or detection, as previously reported. Here, we present experimental evidence showing that AtNOS1 is unable to bind and oxidize arginine to NO. These results support the argument that AtNOS1 is not a NOS. We also show that the renamed NO-associated protein 1 (AtNOA1) is a member of the circularly permuted GTPase family (cGTPase). AtNOA1 specifically binds GTP and hydrolyzes it. Complementation experiments of Atnoa1 mutant plants with different constructs of AtNOA1 show that GTP hydrolysis is necessary but not sufficient for the physiological function of AtNOA1. Mutant AtNOA1 lacking the C-terminal domain, although retaining GTPase activity, failed to complement Atnoa1, suggesting that this domain plays a crucial role in planta. cGTPases appear to be RNA-binding proteins, and the closest homolog of AtNOA1, the Bacillus subtilis YqeH, has been shown to participate in ribosome assembly and stability. We propose a similar function for AtNOA1 and discuss it in the light of its potential role in NO accumulation and plant development.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Exposure of plants to different environmental insults instigates significant changes in the cellular redox tone driven in part by promoting the production of reactive nitrogen species. The key player, nitric oxide (NO) is a small gaseous diatomic molecule, well-known for its signaling role during stress. In this study, we focused on abscisic acid (ABA) metabolism-related genes that showed differential expression in response to the NO donor S-nitroso-L-cysteine (CySNO) by conducting RNA-seq-based transcriptomic analysis. RESULTS:CySNO-induced ABA-related genes were identified and further characterized. Gene ontology terms for biological processes showed most of the genes were associated with protein phosphorylation. Promoter analysis suggested that several cis-regulatory elements were activated under biotic and/or abiotic stress conditions. The ABA biosynthetic gene AtAO3 was selected for validation using functional genomics. The loss of function mutant atao3 was found to differentially regulate oxidative and nitrosative stress. Further investigations for determining the role of AtAO3 in plant defense suggested a negative regulation of plant basal defense and R-gene-mediated resistance. The atao3 plants showed resistance to virulent Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato strain DC3000 (Pst DC3000) with gradual increase in PR1 gene expression. Similarly, atao3 plants showed increased hypersensitive response (HR) when challenged with Pst DC3000 (avrB). The atgsnor1-3 and atsid2 mutants showed a susceptible phenotype with reduced PR1 transcript accumulation. Drought tolerance assay indicated that atao3 and atnced3 ABA-deficient mutants showed early wilting, followed by plant death. The study of stomatal structure showed that atao3 and atnced3 were unable to close stomata even at 7 days after drought stress. Further, they showed reduced ABA content and increased electrolyte leakage than the wild-type (WT) plants. The quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis suggested that ABA biosynthesis genes were down-regulated, whereas expression of most of the drought-related genes were up-regulated in atao3 than in WT. CONCLUSIONS:AtAO3 negatively regulates pathogen-induced salicylic acid pathway, although it is required for drought tolerance, despite the fact that ABA production is not totally dependent on AtAO3, and that drought-related genes like DREB2 and ABI2 show response to drought irrespective of ABA content.

Project description:Imbalance between the accumulation and removal of nitric oxide and its derivatives is a challenge faced by all plants at the cellular level, and is especially important under stress conditions. Exposure of plants to various biotic and abiotic stresses causes rapid changes in cellular redox tone potentiated by the rise in reactive nitrogen species that serve as signaling molecules in mediating defensive responses. To understand mechanisms mediated by these signaling molecules, we performed a large-scale analysis of the Arabidopsis transcriptome induced by nitrosative stress. We generated an average of 84 and 91 million reads from three replicates each of control and 1 mM S-nitrosocysteine (CysNO)-infiltrated Arabidopsis leaf samples, respectively. After alignment, more than 95% of all reads successfully mapped to the reference and 32,535 genes and 55,682 transcripts were obtained. CysNO infiltration caused differential expression of 6436 genes (3448 up-regulated and 2988 down-regulated) and 6214 transcripts (3335 up-regulated and 2879 down-regulated) 6 h post-infiltration. These differentially expressed genes were found to be involved in key physiological processes, including plant defense against various biotic and abiotic stresses, hormone signaling, and other developmental processes. After quantile normalization of the FPKM values followed by student's T-test (P < 0.05) we identified 1165 DEGs (463 up-regulated and 702 down-regulated) with at least 2-folds change in expression after CysNO treatment. Expression patterns of selected genes involved in various biological pathways were verified using quantitative real-time PCR. This study provides comprehensive information about plant responses to nitrosative stress at transcript level and would prove helpful in understanding and incorporating mechanisms associated with nitrosative stress responses in plants.
