Project description:Nitrate transporter NRT2.1, which plays a central role in high-affinity nitrate uptake in roots, is activated at the post-translational level in response to nitrogen (N) starvation. However, critical enzymes required for post-translational activation of NRT2.1 remain to be identified. Here, we show that a type 2C protein phosphatase, designated CEPD-induced phosphatase (CEPH), activates high-affinity nitrate uptake by directly dephosphorylating S501 of NRT2.1, a residue that functions as a negative phospho-switch. CEPH is predominantly expressed in epidermal and cortex cells in roots and up-regulated by N starvation via a CEPDL2/CEPD1/2-mediated long-distance signaling from shoots. Loss of CEPH leads to a marked decrease in high-affinity nitrate uptake, tissue nitrate content, and plant biomass. Collectively, our results identify CEPH as a crucial enzyme in N starvation-dependent activation of NRT2.1, providing molecular and mechanistic insights into how plants regulate high-affinity nitrate uptake at the post-translational level in response to the N environment. We prepared total RNA from roots of wild type, CEPD1ox, CEPD2ox and CEPDL2ox plants grown on N-replete vertical plates for 14 d, and used a microarray analysis to identify genes specifically induced by CEPD family peptides.

Project description:CHL1 functions as a nitrate sensor and also is one of major nitrate transporters responsible for nitrate responses and uptake. ANI is a protein phosphatase particiates in temporal nitrate response, its influence was analyzed in a global transcriptome study using Affymetrix ATH1 array. Two biological replicates of 10-day-old Arabidopsis root tissue from wild-type and ani1 plants were performed to explore differences in gene expression between the wild-type and ani1 mutants exposed to 200 μM nitrate for 0h (T0), 0.5h (T0.5), or 16h (T16) using Affymetrix ATH1 microarray.

Project description:Type 2C protein phosphatases are encoded in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by several related genes (PTC1-5 and PTC7). To gain insight into the functions attributable to specific members of this gene family, we have investigated the transcriptional profiles of ptc1-5 mutants. Two main patterns were obtained as follows: the one generated by the ptc1 mutation and the one resulting from the lack of Ptc2-5. ptc4 and ptc5 profiles were quite similar, whereas that of ptc2 was less related to this group. Mutation of PTC1 resulted in increased expression of numerous genes that are also induced by cell wall damage, such as YKL161c, SED1, or CRH1, as well as in higher amounts of active Slt2 mitogen-activated protein kinase, indicating that lack of the phosphatase activates the cell wall integrity pathway. ptc1 cells were even more sensitive than slt2 mutants to a number of cell wall-damaging agents, and both mutations had additive effects. The sensitivity of ptc1 cells was not dependent on Hog1. Besides these phenotypes, we observed that calcineurin was hyperactivated in ptc1 cells, which were also highly sensitive to calcium ions, heavy metals, and alkaline pH, and exhibited a random haploid budding pattern. Remarkably, many of these traits are found in certain mutants with impaired vacuolar function. As ptc1 cells also display fragmented vacuoles, we hypothesized that lack of Ptc1 would primarily cause vacuolar malfunction, from which other phenotypes would derive. In agreement with this scenario, overexpression of VPS73, a gene of unknown function involved in vacuolar protein sorting, largely rescues not only vacuolar fragmentation but also sensitivity to cell wall damage, high calcium, alkaline pH, as well as other ptc1-specific phenotypes.

Project description:Plants modulate the efficiency of root nitrogen (N) acquisition in response to shoot N demand. However, molecular components directly involved in this shoot-to-root communication remain to be identified. Here, we show that phloem-mobile CEPD-like 2 (CEPDL2) polypeptide is upregulated in the leaf vasculature in response to decreased shoot N status and, after translocation to the roots, promotes high-affinity uptake and root-to-shoot transport of nitrate by activating nitrate transporter genes such as NRT2.1, NRT3.1 and NRT1.5. Loss of CEPDL2 decreases nitrate uptake and root-to-shoot transport activity in roots, leading to a reduction in shoot nitrate content and plant biomass. CEPDL2 contributes to N acquisition cooperatively with CEPD1 and CEPD2 that mediate root N status, and their complete loss severely impairs N homeostasis in plants. Reciprocal grafting analysis provided conclusive evidence that the shoot CEPDL2/CEPD genotype defines the root high-affinity uptake activity of nitrate. Our results indicate that plants integrate shoot N status and root N status in leaves and systemically regulate the efficiency of root N acquisition.

Project description:Potassium (K+) is an essential physiological element determining membrane potential, intracellular pH, osmotic/turgor pressure, and protein synthesis in cells. Here we describe the regulation of potassium uptake systems in the oligotrophic alpha-proteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus known as a model for asymmetric cell division. We show that C. crescentus can grow in concentrations from the micromolar to the millimolar range by mainly using two K+ transporters to maintain potassium homeostasis, the low affinity Kup and the high affinity Kdp uptake systems. When K+ is not limiting, we found that the kup gene is essential while kdp inactivation does not impact the growth. In contrast, kdp becomes critical but not essential and kup dispensable for growth in K+-limited environments. However, in the absence of kdp, mutations in kup were selected to improve growth in K+-depleted conditions, likely by increasing the affinity of Kup for K+. In addition, mutations in the KdpDE two-component system, which regulates kdpABCDE expression, suggest that the inner membrane sensor regulatory component KdpD mainly works as a phosphatase to limit the growth when cells reach late exponential phase. Our data therefore suggest that KdpE is phosphorylated by another non-cognate histidine kinase. On top of this, we determined the KdpE-dependent and independent K+ transcriptome. Together, our work illustrates how an oligotrophic bacterium responds to fluctuation in K+ availability.
