Project description:MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are critical components of the multidimensional regulatory networks in eukaryotic systems. Given their diverse spectrum of function, it is apparent that the transcription, processing, and activity of the miRNAs themselves, is very dynamically regulated. One of the most important and universally implicated signaling molecules is [Ca2+]cyt. It is known to regulate a plethora of developmental and metabolic processes in both plants and animals; however, its impact on the regulation of miRNA expression is relatively less explored. The current study employed a combination of internal and external calcium channel inhibitors to establishing that [Ca2+]cyt signatures actively regulate miRNA expression in rice. Involvement of [Ca2+]cyt in the regulation of miRNA expression was further confirmed by treatment with calcimycin, the calcium ionophore. Modulation of the cytosolic calcium levels was also found to regulate the drought-responsive expression as well as ABA-mediated response of miRNA genes in rice seedlings. The study further establishes the role of calmodulins and Calmodulin-binding Transcription Activators (CAMTAs) as important components of the signal transduction schema that regulates miRNA expression. Yeast one-hybrid assay established that OsCAMTA4 & 6 are involved in the transcriptional regulation of miR156a and miR167h. Thus, the study was able to establish that [Ca2+]cyt is actively involved in regulating the expression of miRNA genes both under control and stress conditions.

Project description:Comparison of the effect of different types of cytosolic Ca2+ elevations (measured by aequorin luminescence) in Arabidopsis seedlings. Calcium elevations are produced by electrical stimulation; namely transient (short, high amplitude) elevation and prolonged (lower amplitude, longer duration)- both were both biologically replicated. Biological replicates were processed as dye-swapped hybridisations.

Project description:A heat and drought tolerant rice cultivar (N22) was grown in the field under control and drought conditions during the dry season in 2013. Drought was applied during early grain filling and resulted in simultaneous heat stress, leading to reduced grain yield and quality. Total RNA was extracted from developing seeds under stress and control (fully flooded) conditions and RNA-seq analysis was performed. These samples are a part of a bigger experiment analysing the responses of three contrasting rice cultivars (N22, Dular, Anjali) to combined heat and drought stress including different organs (developing seeds, flag leaves, flowering spikelets) and developmental stages (early grain filling, flowering) at the transcriptomic level.

Project description:Under flooded conditions, the leaves and internodes of deepwater rice can elongate above the water surface to capture oxygen and prevent drowning. Our previous studies showed that three major quantitative trait loci (QTL) regulate deepwater-dependent internode elongation in deepwater rice. In this study, we investigated the age-dependent internode elongation in deepwater rice. We also investigated the relationship between deepwater-dependent internode elongation and the phytohormone gibberellin (GA) by physiological and genetic approach using a QTL pyramiding line (NIL-1?+?3?+?12). Deepwater rice did not show internode elongation before the sixth leaf stage under deepwater condition. Additionally, deepwater-dependent internode elongation occurred on the sixth and seventh internodes during the sixth leaf stage. These results indicate that deepwater rice could not start internode elongation until the sixth leaf stage. Ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass-spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method for the phytohormone contents showed a deepwater-dependent GA1 and GA4 accumulation in deepwater rice. Additionally, a GA inhibitor abolished deepwater-dependent internode elongation in deepwater rice. On the contrary, GA feeding mimicked internode elongation under ordinary growth conditions. However, mutations in GA biosynthesis and signal transduction genes blocked deepwater-dependent internode elongation. These data suggested that GA biosynthesis and signal transduction are essential for deepwater-dependent internode elongation in deepwater rice.

Project description:Here we report the genome-wide transcriptomic changes resulting from low N stress, low water (W) stress and both the stresses (N-W-) from root and shoot tissues in two rice genotypes,IR 64 (IR64) and Nagina 22 (N22).The former is a better N user but drought stress sensitive while the latter is the internationally known drought tolerant variety but with poor NUE. Though it is well known that adverse effect of the major abiotic stress, drought, on rice is exacerbated by low supply of N, there are no studies yet on the genome-wide effect of co-occurrence of these two major inputs, water and N. We identified a total of 8926 unique differentially expressed genes (DEGs) across all stress treatments compared to optimal input supply. Interestingly, we identified only 1174, 698 and 903 DEGs in root tissues of IR 64, and 1197, 187 and 781 DEGs in N22; while nearly double the number of DEGs were found in shoot tissues, i.e., 3357, 1006 and 4005 in IR 64 and 4004, 990 and 2143 DEGs (log 2 fold change and FDR p value <0.05) in N22 under N-W+, N+W- and N-W-stress treatments.Overall, more than 70% of the genes showed a similar response in both the genotypes. Of the 15 differentially expressed N transporter genes including the high affinity nitrate transporters, ammonium transporters and urea transporter, IR64 showed differential expression in all of them whereas N22 showed differential expression only in 11 under N-W-and/or N-W- stress(es). Four of the N transporters (NRT2.1, NRT2.4, OsNAR2.2 and OsAMT2_1) were also differentially expressed under N+W-condition. A low affinity nitrate transporter, OsNPF7.2, was differentially expressed only in N22 shoots under all three stress conditions implicating its genotype specific role in nitrate transport in above ground part. Genes involved in allantoin and melatonin metabolism were down regulated only under N stress in both the genotypes but not under drought. Three negative regulators of N stress, NIGT1, OsBT and OsACTPK1 were downregulated in IR64 while NIGT1 transcript alone was downregulated in N22 under N stress. Of the 8926 DEGs, 26.15% were completely novel represented by 916 conserved hypothetical proteins and 1418 hypothetical conserved_gene/gene/proteins.

Project description:?-O-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (O-GlcNAc) is a post-translational modification involved in a plethora of biological systems ranging from cellular stress to insulin signaling. This modification shares many hallmarks with phosphorylation, including its dynamic cycling onto a host of proteins such as transcription factors, kinases, and phosphatases, and regulation of cellular functions, including cell signaling. Herein, we report the development of an improved genetically based O-GlcNAc FRET sensor and compartmentalized targeted variants for the characterization of the spatiotemporal dynamics of O-GlcNAc. During serum-stimulated signal transduction, rapid increases in O-GlcNAc activity were observed at both the plasma membrane and the nucleus, with a concomitant decrease detected in the cytoplasm. These findings suggest the existence of compartment specific dynamics for O-GlcNAc in response to signal-inducing stimuli, pointing to complex regulation of this modification. In addition, inhibition of the PI3K pathway by wortmannin abolished the O-GlcNAc response, suggesting that the activity observed is modulated downstream of the PI3K pathway. Taken together, our data argues that O-GlcNAc is a rapidly induced component of signaling and that the interplay between O-GlcNAc and kinase signaling may be more akin to the complex relationship between kinase pathways.

Project description:BackgroundA number of studies on biological networks have been carried out to unravel the topological characteristics that can explain the functional importance of network nodes. For instance, connectivity, clustering coefficient, and shortest path length were previously proposed for this purpose. However, there is still a pressing need to investigate another topological measure that can better describe the functional importance of network nodes. In this respect, we considered a feedback loop which is ubiquitously found in various biological networks.ResultsWe discovered that the number of feedback loops (NuFBL) is a crucial measure for evaluating the importance of a network node and verified this through a signal transduction network in the hippocampal CA1 neuron of mice as well as through generalized biological network models represented by Boolean networks. In particular, we observed that the proteins with a larger NuFBL are more likely to be essential and to evolve slowly in the hippocampal CA1 neuronal signal transduction network. Then, from extensive simulations based on the Boolean network models, we proved that a network node with the larger NuFBL is likely to be more important as the mutations of the initial state or the update rule of such a node made the network converge to a different attractor. These results led us to infer that such a strong positive correlation between the NuFBL and the importance of a network node might be an intrinsic principle of biological networks in view of network dynamics.ConclusionThe presented analysis on topological characteristics of biological networks showed that the number of feedback loops is positively correlated with the functional importance of network nodes. This result also suggests the existence of unknown feedback loops around functionally important nodes in biological networks.
