Abstract
KEY MESSAGE Selective Arabidopsis thaliana inositol phosphate kinase functions modulate response amplitudes in innate immunity by balancing signalling adjustments with phosphate homeostasis networks. Pyrophosphorylation of InsP6 generates InsP7 and/or InsP8 containing high-energy phosphoanhydride bonds that are harnessed during energy requirements of a cell. As bona fide co-factors for several phytohormone networks, InsP7/InsP8 modulate key developmental processes. With requirements in transducing jasmonic acid (JA) and phosphate-starvation responses (PSR), InsP8 exemplifies a versatile metabolite for crosstalks between different cellular pathways during diverse stress exposures. Here we show that Arabidopsis thaliana INOSITOL PENTAKISPHOSPHATE 2-KINASE 1 (IPK1), INOSITOL 1,3,4-TRISPHOSPHATE 5/6-KINASE 1 (ITPK1), and DIPHOSPHOINOSITOL PENTAKISPHOSPHATE KINASE 2 (VIH2) implicated in InsP8 biosynthesis, suppress salicylic acid (SA)-dependent immunity. In ipk1, itpk1 or vih2 mutants, constitutive activation of defenses lead to enhanced resistance against the Pseudomonas syringae pv tomato DC3000 (PstDC3000) strain. Our data reveal that upregulated SA-signaling sectors potentiate increased expression of several phosphate-starvation inducible (PSI)-genes, previously known in these mutants. In reciprocation, upregulated PSI-genes moderate expression amplitudes of defense-associated markers. We demonstrate that SA is induced in phosphate-deprived plants, however its defense-promoting functions are likely diverted to PSR-supportive roles. Overall, our investigations reveal selective InsPs as crosstalk mediators in defense-phosphate homeostasis and in reprogramming stress-appropriate response intensities.

Abstract
Vesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP)-associated proteins (VAPs) are ubiquitous ER-resident tail-anchored membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells. Their N-terminal major sperm protein (MSP) domain faces the cytosol and allows them to interact with a wide variety of cellular proteins. Therefore, VAP proteins are vital to many cellular processes, including organelle membrane tethering, lipid transfer, autophagy, ion homeostasis and viral defence. Here, we provide a timely overview of the increasing number of VAPA/B binding partners and discuss the role of VAPA/B in maintaining organelle-ER interactions and cooperation. Furthermore, we address how viruses and intracellular bacteria hijack VAPs and their binding partners to induce interactions between the host ER and pathogen-containing compartments and support pathogen replication. Finally, we focus on the role of VAP in human disease and discuss how mutated VAPB leads to the disruption of cellular homeostasis and causes amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.
