ABSTRACT: fe-fit-diff_6d-Differential gene expression in A. thaliana roots depending on iron supply and FIT (FER-LIKE IRON DEFICIENCY-INDUCED TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR) abundance
Project description:au15-05_fit - differential gene expression in a.tha. depending on mutation in fit - Transcriptomical changes in transgenic plants that carry a point mutation in FIT. - Differential gene expression in A. thaliana seedlings depending on the introduction of a point mutation in FIT (FER-LIKE IRON DEFICIENCY-INDUCED TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR) under iron deficient conditions.
Project description:au13-06_fit - Fe-FIT-Diff - FIT (FER-LIKE IRON DEFICIENCY-INDUCED TRANSCRIPTION FACTOR) is a regulator of Fe deficiency responses in the root. FIT is a basic helix-loop-helix protein. Here, we investigated the transcriptome changes in response to Fe deficiency (- Fe) versus the control condition (+ Fe) in wild type, the fit-3 loss of function mutant and in FIT overexpression plants.

Project description:Tomato, a Strategy I model plant for Fe deficiency, is an important economical crop. The transcriptional responses induced by Fe deficiency in tomato roots were previously described (Zamboni et al., 2012). The changes in trascriptome caused by the supply of Fe to plants starved fro 1 week were described in relation to the different nature of chelating agents (Fe-WEHS, Fe-CITRATE and Fe-PS). Transcriptional profile obtained by roots (27-d) of 21-d-old tomato plants starved of iron (0 μM Fe-EDTA) for 1 week and supplied for 1 h with 1 μM of Fe as Fe-WEHS (supply_Fe_WEHS), Fe citrate (supply_Fe_CITRATE) and Fe-PS (supply_Fe_PS). Tomato plants were hydroponically grown in all three case of Fe supply. Three different biological replicates were used for each sample repeating the experiment three times. All samples were obtained pooling roots of six plants (27-d-old).

Project description:Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for the survival and proliferation of plants. Plants have evolved complex mechanisms to maintain Fe homeostasis in response of Fe deficiency conditions. To explore the mechanisms of Populus tomentosa response to Fe deficiency, we evaluated the physiological, biochemical and transcriptome differences of P. tomentosa between Fe-sufficient and Fe-deficient conditions. The results showed that, under Fe-free conditions, the chlorophyll synthesis and photosynthesis pathways in shoots were extremely depressed. The inhibition of these pathways caused chlorosis and reduced shoot growth. Meanwhile, although both two photosynthetic systems (PSI and PSII) were inhibited under Fe limited conditions, PSI is affected more serious and earlier than PSII. In order to maintain Fe homeostasis, several genes involved in Fe regulation network were differentially expressed. At the late period of Fe deficiency response, some genes (BTS, bHLH38/39 and PYE) in PYE regulatory network were up-regulated in roots, while some root-specific ethylene-dependent FIT regulatory genes (EIN3, ERF and FIT) were down-regulated. Moreover, FRO2 was induced in P. tomentosa roots to reduce more Fe3+, which is similar with other strategy I plants. It is interest that we found another Fe2+ transporter gene (NRAMP1) was induced, instead of the well-known Fe2+ transporter gene (IRT1) for strategy I plants, to promote Fe2+ absorption at the Fe deficiency late stage.
Project description:Iron (Fe) and copper (Cu) are essential metal micronutrients that are necessary for many redox reactions. The uptake of these metals is tightly regulated in plants. Some redox processes can alternatively use Fe-containing proteins or Cu-containing proteins, depending on nutritional status. Copper deficiency can rescue a Cucumis melo Fe uptake deficient mutant, and Fe deficiency can result in increased accumulation of Cu. However, the system responsible for Fe-deficiency-regulated Cu-uptake is unknown. To understand the genes and gene networks associated with Fe-deficiency regulated Cu uptake and Fe-Cu cross-talk, we conducted transcriptomic profiling of roots and rosettes of spl7 (a Cu uptake deficient mutant in arabidopsis) and Col-0 (WT) grown under Fe, Cu and simultaneous Fe and Cu deficiency conditions.
Project description:Essential metals such as iron are required for healthy plant growth. Fe is an important cofactor and catalytic element in many biological processes. Fe and other metals can also be toxic when present in excess. Therefore plants have mechanisms of metal homeostasis which involve coordination of metal ion transporters for uptake, translocation and compartmentalisation. The NAS genes are supposed to play an important role in Fe homeostasis. They are coding for enzymes called nicotianaminesynthase (NAS), which synthesize nicotianamine (NA) by a one-step condensation reaction of three molecules S-adenosyl-methionine. NA acts as a chelator for Fe, Cu, Ni and Zn and might be involved in the transport and allocation of Fe throughout the plant. We generated quadruple T-DNA insertion mutant nas plants to investigate NA function as described in Klatte et al., 2009, Plant Physiol. The nas4x-1 plants show an interveinal leaf chlorosis when turning from vegetative to reproductive stage, which intensifies when growing under Fe deficiency conditions. nas4x-1 plants have strongly reduced NA contents and show an elevated Fe deficiency response in roots. By performing microarray experiments we want to reveal global changes on transcriptional level in roots and leaves of nas4x-1 mutant compared to wild type plants grown under Fe supply and Fe deficiency conditions, respectively. The loss of NAS genes has a strong impact on the regulation of other metal homeostasis genes and allows to draw conclusions about nicotianamine function in metal homeostasis of A.thaliana. For this study, four-week old nas4x-1 mutant and wild type plants were exposed for 7 days to plant medium with and without Fe supply. These conditions have been established previously and have resulted in a reproducibly strong interveinal leaf chlorosis of nas4x-1 plants compared to wild type, especially upon Fe deficiency conditions. The experiment was repeated three times in consecutive weeks to obtain three independent biological repetitions. Rosette leaves and roots of five week-old plants were harvested, RNA was isolated and microarray hybridization was performed. 24 Total samples were analyzed. We generated the following pairwise comparisons: WT + Fe vs. – Fe, nas4x-1 + Fe vs. – Fe, + Fe WT vs. + Fe nas4x-1, - Fe WT vs. - Fe nas4x-1, roots and leaves
