COSY catalyzes trans-cis isomerization and lactonization in the biosynthesis of coumarins

ABSTRACT:

Coumarins or 1,2-benzopyrones comprise a large class of secondary metabolites ubiquitously found in the plant kingdom. In many plant species, coumarins are particularly important for iron acquisition and plant defense. Here we show that COUMARIN SYNTHASE (COSY) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of coumarins. Arabidopsis thaliana cosy mutants are strongly reduced in coumarin levels and accumulate o-hydroxyphenylpropanoids instead. Accordingly, cosy mutants have reduced iron content and show growth defects when grown under conditions where iron availability is limited. Recombinant COSY is able to produce umbelliferone, esculetin and scopoletin from their respective o-hydroxycinnamoyl-CoA thioesters via two reaction steps: a trans-cis isomerization followed by a lactonization. This conversion happens partially spontaneously and is catalyzed by light, which explains why the need for an enzyme for this conversion has been overlooked. The combined results show that COSY has an essential role in the biosynthesis of coumarins in organs that are shielded from light, such as roots. These findings provide routes to improving coumarin production in crops or via microbial fermentation.

Uracil phosphoribosyltransferase is required to establish a functional cytochrome b6/f complex

Project description:Arabidopsis uracil phosphoribosyltransferase (UPP) is an essential enzyme and plants lacking this enzyme are strongly compromised in chloroplast function. Our analysis of UPP amiRNA mutants has confirmed that this vital function is crucial to establish a fully functional photosynthesis as the RIESKE iron sulfur protein (PetC) is almost absent, leading to a block in photosynthetic electron transport. Interestingly, this function appears to be unrelated to nucleotide homeostasis since nucleotide levels were not altered in the studied mutants. Transcriptomics and proteomic analysis showed that protein homeostasis but not gene expression is most likely responsible for this observation and high light provoked an upregulation of protease levels, including thylakoid filamentation temperature-sensitive 1, 5 (FtsH), caseinolytic protease proteolytic subunit 1 (ClpP1), and processing peptidases, as well as components of the chloroplast protein import machinery in UPP amiRNA lines. Strongly reduced PetC amounts were not only detected by immunoblot from mature plants but in addition in a de-etiolation experiment with young seedlings and are causing reduced high light-induced non-photochemical quenching Φ(NPQ) but increased unregulated energy dissipation Φ(NO). This impaired photosynthesis results in an inability to induce flavonoid biosynthesis. In addition, the levels of the osmoprotectants raffinose, proline, and fumarate were found to be reduced. In sum, our work suggests that UPP assists in stabilization PetC during import, processing or targeting to the thylakoid membrane, or protects it against proteolytic degradation.

Expression profiling of Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD-1 with growth on cellulose or cellobiose

Project description:This study compares growth of Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD-1 with cellulose or cellobiose as the carbohydrate substrate. Ruminococcus flavefaciens is a predominant cellulolytic rumen bacterium, which forms a multi-enzyme cellulosome complex that could play an integral role in the ability of this bacterium to degrade plant cell wall polysaccharides. Identifying the major enzyme types involved in plant cell wall degradation is essential for gaining a better understanding of the cellulolytic capabilities of this organism as well as highlighting potential enzymes for application to improvement of livestock nutrition and for conversion of cellulosic biomass to liquid fuels. These results show that the growth substrate drives expression of enzymes predicted to be involved in carbohydrate metabolism as well as expression and assembly of key cellulosomal enzyme components. 1 species (Ruminococcus flavefaciens FD_1), 2 conditions (cellulose, cellobiose), 4 biological replicates. Direct design with biological dye swap.

Fe limitation decreases transcriptional regulation over the diel cycle in the model diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana

Project description:Iron (Fe) is an important growth limiting factor for diatoms and its availability is further restricted by changes in the carbonate chemistry of the water. We investigated the physiological attributes and transcriptional profiles of the diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana grown on a day:night cycle under different CO2/pH and iron concentrations, that in combination generated available iron (Fe’) concentrations of 1160, 233, 58 and 12 pM. We found the light-dark conditions to be the main driver of transcriptional patterns, followed by Fe’ concentration and CO2 availability, respectively. At the highest Fe’ (1160 pM), 55% of the transcribed genes were differentially expressed between day and night, whereas at the lowest Fe’ (12 pM), only 28% of the transcribed genes displayed comparable patterns. While Fe limitation disrupts the diel transcriptional patterns for genes in most central metabolism pathways, the diel periodicity of light- signaling molecules and glycolytic genes, was relatively robust in response to reduced Fe’. Moreover, we identified a non-canonical splicing of transcripts encoding triose-phosphate isomerase, a key-enzyme of glycolysis, generating transcript isoforms that would encode proteins with and without an active site. Transcripts that encoded an active enzyme maintained a diel pattern at low Fe’, while transcripts that encoded the non-active enzyme lost the diel pattern. This work illustrates the interplay between nutrient limitation and transcriptional regulation over the diel cycle. Considering that future ocean conditions will reduce the availability of Fe in many parts of the oceans, our work identifies some of the regulatory mechanisms that may shape future ecological communities.

Impaired iron recycling from erythrocytes is an early hallmark of aging

Project description:Aging affects iron homeostasis and erythropoiesis, as evidenced by tissue iron loading in rodents and common anemia in the elderly. Given thatred pulp macrophages (RPMs) continuously process iron, their cellular functions might be susceptible to age-dependent decline, affecting organismal iron metabolism and red blood cell (RBCs) parameters. However, little is known about the effects of aging on the functioning of RPMs. To study aging RPMs, we employed 10-11-months-old female mice that show serum iron deficiency and iron overload primarily in spleens compared to young controls. We observed that this is associated with iron loading, oxidative stress, diminished lysosomal activity, and decreased erythrophagocytosis rate in RPMs. We uncovered that these impairments of RPMs lead to the retention of senescent RBCs in the spleen, their excessive local hemolysis, and the formation of iron- and heme-rich large extracellular protein aggregates, likely derived from damaged ferroptotic RPMs. We further found that feeding mice an iron-reduced diet alleviates iron accumulation and reactive oxygen species build-up in RPMs, improves their ability to clear and degrade erythrocytes, and limits ferroptosis. Consequently, this diet improves splenic RBCs fitness, limits hemolysis and the formation of iron-rich protein aggregates, and increases serum iron availability in aging mice. Using RPM-like cells, we show that diminished erythrophagocytic and lysosomal activities of RPMs can be attributed to a combination of increased iron levels and reduced expression of heme-catabolizing enzyme heme oxygenase 1 (HO-1). Taken together, we identified RPM dysfunction as an early hallmark of physiological aging and demonstrated that dietary iron reduction improves iron turnover efficacy.

Target specificity amongst canonical nuclear poly(A) polymerases in plants modulates organ growth and pathogen response

Project description:Polyadenylation of pre-mRNAs is critical for efficient nuclear export, stability and translation of the mature mRNAs, and thus for gene expression. The bulk of pre-mRNAs are processed by canonical nuclear poly(A) polymerase (PAPS). Both vertebrate and higher-plant genomes encode more than one isoform of this enzyme, and these are co-expressed in different tissues. However, in neither case is it known whether the isoforms fulfil different functions or polyadenylate distinct subsets of pre-mRNAs. Here we show that the three canonical nuclear PAPS isoforms in Arabidopsis are functionally specialized due to their evolutionarily divergent C-terminal domains. A strong loss-of-function mutation in PAPS1 causes a male gametophytic defect, while a weak allele leads to reduced leaf growth that results in part from a constitutive pathogen response. By contrast, plants lacking both PAPS2 and PAPS4 function are viable with wild-type leaf growth. Polyadenylation of SMALL AUXIN UP RNA (SAUR) mRNAs depends specifically on PAPS1 function. The resulting reduction in SAUR activity in paps1 mutants contributes to their reduced leaf growth, providing a causal link between polyadenylation of specific pre-mRNAs by a particular PAPS isoform and plant growth. This suggests the existence of an additional layer of regulation in plant and possibly vertebrate gene expression, where the relative activities of canonical nuclear PAPS isoforms control de novo synthesized poly(A)-tail length and hence expression of specific subsets of mRNAs. Comparing inflorescences and seedlings from paps1-1 mutants and WT. 4 biological replicates for each genotype and tissue.

Comparison of expression profiles for Agrobacterium tumefaciens wild-type strain C58 grown with or without iron.

Project description:The plant pathogen Agrobacterium tumefaciens attaches to and forms biofilms on both biotic and abiotic surfaces. The transition between free-living, planktonic A. tumefaciens and multicellular biofilms is regulated by several well-defined environmental and nutritional inputs, including pH, oxygen tension, and phosphate concentration. In many bacterial species limiting iron levels inhibit attachment and biofilm formation. We demonstrate that A. tumefaciens biofilm formation is reduced under limiting iron conditions. Treatment of A. tumefaciens cultures with EDDHA, an iron-specific extracellular chelator, inhibited both planktonic growth rate and adherent biomass. These effects were reversed upon addition of exogenous ferrous iron. This reduced biofilm formation effect is independent of the known iron-responsive regulators Irr and RirA. Transcriptome analysis comparing gene expression under iron-replete versus iron-deficient conditions identified hundreds of genes that are differentially regulated. Downregulated genes suggest an iron sparing response. Four biological replicates, independent RNA preparations, one dye swap.

The receptor-like cytosolic kinase RIPK activates NADP-malic enzyme 2 to generate NADPH for fueling the ROS production

Project description:Reactive oxygen species (ROS) production is a conserved immune response, primarily mediated in Arabidopsis by the respiratory burst oxidase homolog D (RBOHD), a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase associated with the plasma membrane. A rapid increase in NADPH is necessary to fuel RBOHD proteins and hence maintain ROS production. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the NADPH generation for fueling RBOHD remains unclear. In this study, we isolated a new mutant allele of flagellin-insensitive 4 (FIN4), encoding the first enzyme in de novo NAD biosynthesis. fin4 mutants show reduced NADPH levels and impaired ROS production. However, FIN4 and other genes involved in the NAD- and NADPH-generating pathways are not highly upregulated upon elicitor treatment. Therefore, we hypothesized that a cytosolic NADP-linked dehydrogenase might be post-transcriptionally activated to keep the NADPH supply close to RBOHD. RPM1-INDUCED PROTEIN KINASE (RIPK), a receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase, regulates broad-spectrum ROS signaling in plant immunity. We then isolated the proteins associated with RIPK and identified NADP-malic enzyme 2 (NADP-ME2), an NADPH-generating enzyme. Compared with wild-type plants, nadp-me2 mutants display decreased NADP-ME activity, lower NADPH levels, as well as reduced ROS production in response to immune elicitors. Furthermore, we found that RIPK can directly phosphorylate NADP-ME2 and enhance its activity in vitro. The phosphorylation of NADP-ME2 S371 residue contributes to ROS production upon immune elicitor treatment and the susceptibility to the necrotrophic bacterium, Pectobacterium carotovorum. Overall, our study suggests that RIPK activates NADP-ME2 to rapidly increase cytosolic NADPH, hence fueling RBOHD to sustain ROS production in plant immunity.
