Arabidopsis leaf apoplast proteomes under flg22 induced pattern-triggered immunity
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The apoplast is a critical interface in plant-pathogen interactions particularly in the context of pattern-triggered immunity (PTI), which is initiated by recognition of microbe-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Our study characterizes the proteomic profile of the Arabidopsis apoplast during PTI induced by flg22, a 22 amino acid bacterial flagellin epitope, to elucidate the output of PTI. Apoplastic washing fluid (AWF) was extracted with minimal cytoplasmic contamination for LC-MS/MS analysis. We observed consistent identification of PTI enriched and depleted peptides across replicates with limited correlation between total protein abundance and transcript abundance. We observed topological bias in peptide recovery of receptor-like kinases with peptides predominantly recovered from their ectodomains. Notably, tetraspanin 8, an exosome marker, was enriched in PTI samples. We additionally confirmed increased concentrations of exosomes during PTI. This study enhances our understanding of the proteomic changes in the apoplast during plant immune responses and lays the groundwork for future investigations into the molecular mechanisms of plant defense under recognition of pathogen patterns.
