Abstract
The hydrolysis of deacylated glycerophospholipids into sn-glycerol 3-phosphate and alcohol is facilitated by evolutionarily conserved proteins known as glycerophosphodiester phosphodiesterases (GDPDs). These proteins are crucial for the pathogenicity of bacteria and for bioremediation processes aimed at degrading organophosphorus esters that pose a hazard to both humans and the environment. Additionally, GDPDs are enzymes that respond to multiple nutrients and could potentially serve as candidate genes for addressing deficiencies in zinc, iron, potassium, and especially phosphate in important plants like rice. In mammals, glycerophosphodiesterases (GDEs) play a role in regulating osmolytes, facilitating the biosynthesis of anandamine, contributing to the development of skeletal muscle, promoting the differentiation of neurons and osteoblasts, and influencing pathological states. Due to their capacity to enhance a plant's ability to tolerate various nutrient deficiencies and their potential as pharmaceutical targets in humans, GDPDs have received increased attention in recent times. This review provides an overview of the functions of GDPD families as vital and resilient enzymes that regulate various pathways in bacteria, plants, and humans.

Wadhwa N, Singh D, Yadav R, Kapoor S, Kapoor M. Role of TRDMT1/DNMT2 in stress adaptation and its influence on transcriptome and proteome dynamics under osmotic stress in Physcomitrium patens. PHYSIOLOGIA PLANTARUM 2023; 175:e14014. [PMID: 37882266 DOI: 10.1111/ppl.14014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/04/2023] [Revised: 08/07/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 10/27/2023]
Abstract
Early land plants such as the moss Physcomitrium patens lack several morphological traits that offer protection to tracheophytes from environmental stresses. These plants instead have evolved several physiological and biochemical mechanisms that facilitate them to adapt to terrestrial stresses such as drought. We have previously shown that loss-of-function mutants of tRNA (cytosine(38)-C(5))-methyltransferase TRDMT1/DNMT2 in P. patens are highly sensitive to oxidative and osmotic stress. To gain insight into the role of PpTRDMT1/PpDNMT2 in modulating genetic networks under osmotic stress, genome-wide transcriptome and proteome studies were undertaken in wild-type and ppdnmt2 plants. Transcriptome analysis revealed 375 genes to be differentially expressed in the ppdnmt2 under stress compared to the WT. Most of these genes are affiliated with carbohydrate metabolic pathways, photosynthesis, cell wall biogenesis, pathways related to isotropic and polarised cell growth and transcription factors among others. Histochemical staining showed elevated levels of reactive oxygen species in ppdnmt2 while transmission electron microscopy revealed no distinct defects in the ultrastructure of chloroplasts. Immunoprecipitation using PpDNMT2-specific antibody coupled with mass spectrometry revealed core proteins of the glycolytic pathway, antioxidant enzymes, proteins of amino acid biosynthetic pathways and photosynthesis-related proteins among others to co-purify with PpTRDMT1/PpDNMT2 under osmotic stress. Yeast two-hybrid assays, protein deletion and α-galactosidase assays showed the cytosol glycolytic protein glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase to bind to the catalytic motifs in PpTRDMT1/PpDNMT2. Results presented in this study allow us to better understand genetic networks linking enzymes of energy metabolism, epigenetic processes and RNA pol II-mediated transcription during osmotic stress tolerance in P. patens.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:12786. [PMID: 37628968 PMCID: PMC10454940 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241612786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/09/2023] [Revised: 08/02/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Enhancing the absorption and utilization of phosphorus by crops is an important aim for ensuring food security worldwide. However, the gene regulatory network underlying phosphorus use in foxtail millet remains unclear. In this study, the molecular mechanism underlying low-phosphorus (LP) responsiveness in foxtail millet was evaluated using a comparative transcriptome analysis. LP reduced the chlorophyll content in shoots, increased the anthocyanin content in roots, and up-regulated purple acid phosphatase and phytase activities as well as antioxidant systems (CAT, POD, and SOD). Finally, 13 differentially expressed genes related to LP response were identified and verified using transcriptomic data and qRT-PCR. Two gene co-expression network modules related to phosphorus responsiveness were positively correlated with POD, CAT, and PAPs. Of these, SiPHR1, functionally annotated as PHOSPHATE STARVATION RESPONSE 1, was identified as an MYB transcription factor related to phosphate responsiveness. SiPHR1 overexpression in Arabidopsis significantly modified the root architecture. LP stress caused cellular, physiological, and phenotypic changes in seedlings. SiPHR1 functioned as a positive regulator by activating downstream genes related to LP tolerance. These results improve our understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying responsiveness to LP stress, thereby laying a theoretical foundation for the genetic modification and breeding of new LP-tolerant foxtail millet varieties.

Abstract
Plants' requirement of Phosphorus (P) as an essential macronutrient is obligatory for their normal growth and metabolism. Besides restricting plants' primary growth, P depletion affects both primary and secondary metabolism and leads to altered levels of sugars, metabolites, amino acids, and other secondary compounds. Such metabolic shifts help plants optimize their metabolism and growth under P limited conditions. Under P deprivation, both sugar levels and their mobilization change that influences the expression of Pi starvation-inducible genes. Increased sugar repartitioning from shoot to root help root growth and organic acids secretion that in turn promotes phosphate (Pi) uptake from the soil. Other metabolic changes such as lipid remodeling or P reallocation from older to younger leaves release the P from its bound forms in the cell. In this review, we summarize the metabolic footprinting of Pi-starved plants with respect to the benefits offered by such metabolic changes to intracellular Pi homeostasis.

Abstract
Low phosphate (Pi) availability in soils severely limits crop growth and production. Plants have evolved to have numerous physiological and molecular adaptive mechanisms to cope with Pi starvation. The release of Pi from membrane phospholipids is considered to improve plant phosphorus (P) utilization efficiency in response to Pi starvation and accompanies membrane lipid remodeling. In this review, we summarize recent discoveries related to this topic and the molecular basis of membrane phospholipid alteration and triacylglycerol metabolism in response to Pi depletion in plants at different subcellular levels. These findings will help to further elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying plant adaptation to Pi starvation and thus help to develop crop cultivars with high P utilization efficiency.
