Tobacco pollen tube-secretome following penetration through the pistil

ABSTRACT: As in animals, cell-cell communication plays pivotal role in male-female recognition during plant sexual reproduction. Prelaid peptides secreted from the female reproductive tissues guide pollen tubes towards ovules for fertilization. However, the elaborate mechanisms for this dialogue have remained elusive, particularly from the male perspective. We perform genome-wide quantitative liquid chromatography coupled tandem mass spectrometry of a pistil-stimulated pollen tube secretome and identify 801 pollen tube-secreted proteins. Interestingly, in silico analysis reveals that the pollen tube-secretome is dominated by unconventional-type secreted proteins representing 57% of the total secretome. In support, we show that unconventional-type protein, translationally controlled tumor protein, is secreted to the apoplast. Remarkably, we discover that this protein could be secreted by infiltrating through the initial phases of the conventional secretory pathway and could reach the apoplast via exosomes as demonstrated by co-localization with Oleisin1 exosome marker. We demonstrate that Arabidopsis thaliana translationally controlled tumor protein-knockdown plants have pollen tubes that poorly navigate to the target ovule, and theÂ knocked down allele is poorly transmitted through the male. We show that regulators of the endoplasmic reticulum-trans-golgi network protein secretory pathway control secretion of pollen tube-secreted cysteine-rich proteins, including pollen tube attractants, and are essential for pollen tube growth and guidance, as well as ovule-targeting competence. This work, the first pollen tube secretome study, identifies novel genome-wide pollen tube-secreted proteins with potential function in pollen tube-ovule guidance for sexual reproduction. Functional analysis highlights a potential mechanism for pollen tube unconventional protein secretion and reveals likely regulators of pollen tube protein secretion. The association of pollen tube-secreted proteins with marker proteins shown to be secreted via exosomes in other species suggest secretion via exosomes as a possible mechanism for cell-cell communication between the pollen tube and female reproductive cells.

Project description:In sexual reproduction, a proper communication and cooperation between male and female organs and tissue are essential for male and female gametes to unite. In flowering plants, female sporophytic tissues and gametophyte direct a male pollen tube towards an egg apparatus, which consists of an egg cell and two synergid cells. The cell-cell communication between the pollen tube and the egg apparatus, such as the reception of a signal from the egg apparatus at the pollen tube, makes the tip of pollen tube rapture to release the sperm cell. To isolate male factors involved in the interaction between a pollen tube and an egg apparatus, we focused on receptor-like kinases (RLKs), which are extensively diversified in the flowering plant lineage to comprise a large monophyletic gene family. Approximately 620 members were found in the Arabidopsis thaliana genome. Expression patterns of 558 RLKs were analyzed using an Affymetrix ATH1 microarray of A. thaliana. We focused on two RLKs, ANXUR1 (ANX1) and ANXUR2 (ANX2), and characterized their function. Here we report that pollen tubes of anx1/anx2 ruptured before arriving at the egg apparatus, suggesting that ANX1 and ANX2 are male factors controlling pollen tube behavior with directing rupture at proper timing. Furthermore, ANX1 and ANX2 were the most closely related paralogs to a female factor FERONIA/SIRENE controlling pollen tube behavior expressed in synergid cells. Our finding shows that the coordinated behaviors of female and male reproductive apparatuses are regulated by the sister genes, whose duplication might play a role in the evolution of fertilization system in flowering plants. Experiment Overall Design: Arabidopsis thaliana Col-0 was grown at 18Â°C for 8 hr in the dark and at 22Â°C for 16 hr in the light. To collect germinated pollen with pollen tubes, opened flowers were touched to cellophane layered on the pollen germination medium containing 13.5% sucrose, 10 mM CaCl2, 0.4 mM boric acid, 1 mM KCl, 0.001% myo-inositol, and 0.6% agarose. The released pollen was incubated at 25Â°C for 6 hr in the dark. For collection of seedlings, seeds were sown on Murashige-Skoog medium containing 1x Murashige and Skoog Plant Salt Mixture (Wako), 1x Gamborgâs vitamin solution (Wako), 1% sucrose, and 0.8% agar. Seedlings including roots with one or two rosette leaves were collected for RNA extraction. RNA was extracted with Isogene (Nippon Gene), precipitated with LiCl, and further purified with RNeasy. The ATH1 genechip (Affymetrix) was used for expression analysis using 10 Âµg each of total RNA following the manufacturer's instructions. Array data were processed and analyzed with the GCOS1.2 program (Affymetrix) and Excel 2004 (Microsoft). Hybridization with germinating pollen RNA was duplicated and the results were compared to that with seedling RNA.
