Mason K, LaMontagne-Mueller E, Sauer M, Heese A. Arabidopsis clathrin adaptor EPSIN1 but not MODIFIED TRANSPORT TO THE VACOULE1 contributes to effective plant immunity against pathogenic Pseudomonas bacteria. PLANT SIGNALING & BEHAVIOR 2023; 18:2163337. [PMID: 36603596 PMCID: PMC9828777 DOI: 10.1080/15592324.2022.2163337] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2022] [Revised: 12/19/2022] [Accepted: 12/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
In eukaryotes, EPSINs are Epsin N-terminal Homology (ENTH) domain-containing proteins that serve as monomeric clathrin adaptors at the plasma membrane (PM) or the trans-Golgi Network (TGN)/early endosomes (EE). The model plant Arabidopsis thaliana encodes for seven ENTH proteins, of which so far, only AtEPSIN1 (AtEPS1) and MODIFIED TRANSPORT TO THE VACUOLE1 (AtMTV1) localize to the TGN/EE and contribute to cargo trafficking to both the cell surface and the vacuole. However, relatively little is known about role(s) of any plant EPSIN in governing physiological responses. We have recently shown that AtEPS1 is a positive modulator of plant immune signaling and pattern-triggered immunity against flagellated Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pto) DC3000 bacteria. In eps1 mutants, impaired immune responses correlate with reduced accumulation of the receptor FLAGELLIN SENSING2 (AtFLS2) and the convergent immune co-receptor BRASSINOSTEROID INSENTIVE1-ASSOCIATED RECEPTOR KINASE1 (AtBAK1) in the PM. Here, we report that in contrast to AtEPS1, the TGN/EE-localized AtMTV1 did not contribute significantly to immunity against pathogenic Pto DC3000 bacteria. We also compared the amino acid sequences, peptide motif structures and in silico tertiary structures of the ENTH domains of AtEPS1 and AtMTV1 in more detail. We conclude that despite sharing the classical tertiary alpha helical ENTH-domain structure and clathrin-binding motifs, the overall low amino acid identity and differences in peptide motifs may explain their role(s) in trafficking of some of the same as well as distinct cargo components to their site of function, with the latter potentially contributing to differences in physiological responses.

[PMID: 37804254 DOI: 10.1093/pcp/pcad118] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2023] [Revised: 09/06/2023] [Accepted: 09/28/2023] [Indexed: 10/09/2023]
Abstract
Membrane trafficking is a fundamental mechanism for protein and lipid transport in eukaryotic cells and exhibits marked diversity among eukaryotic lineages with distinctive body plans and lifestyles. Diversification of the membrane trafficking system is associated with the expansion and secondary loss of key machinery components, including RAB GTPases, soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) and adaptor proteins, during plant evolution. The number of AP180 N-terminal homology (ANTH) proteins, an adaptor family that regulates vesicle formation and cargo sorting during clathrin-mediated endocytosis, increases during plant evolution. In the genome of Arabidopsis thaliana, 18 genes for ANTH proteins have been identified, a higher number than that in yeast and animals, suggesting a distinctive diversification of ANTH proteins. Conversely, the liverwort Marchantia polymorpha possesses a simpler repertoire; only two genes encoding canonical ANTH proteins have been identified in its genome. Intriguingly, a non-canonical ANTH protein is encoded in the genome of M. polymorpha, which also harbors a putative kinase domain. Similar proteins have been detected in sporadic lineages of plants, suggesting their ancient origin and multiple secondary losses during evolution. We named this unique ANTH group phosphatidylinositol-binding clathrin assembly protein-K (PICALM-K) and characterized it in M. polymorpha using genetic, cell biology-based and artificial intelligence (AI)-based approaches. Our results indicate a flagella-related function of MpPICALM-K in spermatozoids, which is distinct from that of canonical ANTH proteins. Therefore, ANTH proteins have undergone significant functional diversification during evolution, and PICALM-K represents a plant-unique ANTH protein that is delivered by neofunctionalization through exon shuffling.

Abstract
Cell polarity results from the asymmetric distribution of cellular structures, molecules, and functions. Polarity is a fundamental cellular trait that can determine the orientation of cell division, the formation of particular cell shapes, and ultimately the development of a multicellular body. To maintain the distinct asymmetric distribution of proteins and lipids in cellular membranes, plant cells have developed complex trafficking and regulatory mechanisms. Major advances have been made in our understanding of how membrane microdomains influence the asymmetric distribution of proteins and lipids. In this review, we first give an overview of cell polarity. Next, we discuss current knowledge concerning membrane microdomains and their roles as structural and signaling platforms to establish and maintain membrane polarity, with a special focus on the asymmetric distribution of proteins and lipids, and advanced microscopy techniques to observe and characterize membrane microdomains. Finally, we review recent advances regarding membrane trafficking in cell polarity establishment and how the balance between exocytosis and endocytosis affects membrane polarity.

Abstract
In bacteria, fungi and animals, 3'-5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and adenylate cyclases (ACs), enzymes that catalyse the formation of 3',5'-cAMP from ATP, are recognized as key signalling components. In contrast, the presence of cAMP and its biological roles in higher plants have long been a matter of controversy due to the generally lower amounts in plant tissues compared with that in animal and bacterial cells, and a lack of clarity on the molecular nature of the generating and degrading enzymes, as well as downstream effectors. While treatment with 3',5'-cAMP elicited many plant responses, ACs were, however, somewhat elusive. This changed when systematic searches with amino acid motifs deduced from the conserved catalytic centres of annotated ACs from animals and bacteria identified candidate proteins in higher plants that were subsequently shown to have AC activities in vitro and in vivo. The identification of active ACs moonlighting within complex multifunctional proteins is consistent with their roles as molecular tuners and regulators of cellular and physiological functions. Furthermore, the increasing number of ACs identified as part of proteins with different domain architectures suggests that there are many more hidden ACs in plant proteomes and they may affect a multitude of mechanisms and processes at the molecular and systems levels.

Abstract
Low temperatures in the spring often lead to a decline in the emergence rate and uniformity of maize, which can affect yield in northern regions. This study used 365 recombinant inbred lines (RILs), which arose from crossing Qi319 and Ye478, to identify low-temperature resistance during the germination stage by measuring eight low-temperature-related traits. The quantitative trait locis (QTLs) were mapped using R/qtl software by combining phenotypic data, and the genotyping by sequencing (GBS) method to produce a high-density genetic linkage map. Twenty QTLs were detected during QTL mapping, of which seven QTLs simultaneously detected a consistent 197.10-202.30 Mb segment on chromosome 1. The primary segment was named cQTL1-2, with a phenotypic variation of 5.18-25.96% and a physical distance of 5.2 Mb. This combines the phenotype and genotype with the identification of seven chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs), which were derived from Ye478*Qi319 and related to cQTL1-2. The physical distance of cQTL1-2 was reduced to approximately 1.9 Mb. The consistent meta-QTL mQTL1 was located at 619.06 cM on chromosome 1, had a genetic distance of 7.27 cM, and overlapped with cQTL1-2. This was identified by combining the results of previous QTL studies assessing maize tolerance to low temperatures at the germination stage. An assessment of the results of the RIL population, CSSLs, and mQTL1 found the consistent QTL to be LtQTL1-1. It was identified in bin1.06-1.07 at a confidence interval of between 200,400,148 and 201,775,619 bp. In this interval, qRT-PCR found that relative expression of the candidate genes GRMZM2G082630 and GRMZM2G115730 were both up-regulated in low-temperature tolerant lines and down-regulated in sensitive lines (P < 0.01).
