Huang F, He Y. Epigenetic control of gene expression by cellular metabolisms in plants. CURRENT OPINION IN PLANT BIOLOGY 2024; 81:102572.

Abstract
Covalent modifications on DNA and histones can regulate eukaryotic gene expression and are often referred to as epigenetic modifications. These chemical reactions require various metabolites as donors or co-substrates, such as acetyl coenzyme A, S-adenosyl-l-methionine, and α-ketoglutarate. Metabolic processes that take place in the cytoplasm, nucleus, or other cellular compartments may impact epigenetic modifications in the nucleus. Here, we review recent advances on metabolic control of chromatin modifications and thus gene expression in plants, with a focus on the functions of nuclear compartmentalization of metabolic processes and enzymes in DNA and histone modifications. Furthermore, we discuss the functions of cellular metabolisms in fine-tuning gene expression to facilitate the responses or adaptation to environmental changes in plants.

A histone deacetylase confers plant tolerance to heat stress by controlling protein lysine deacetylation and stress granule formation in rice. Cell Rep 2024; 43:114642.

Abstract
Understanding molecular mechanisms of plant cellular response to heat stress will help to improve crop tolerance and yield in the global warming era. Here, we show that deacetylation of non-histone proteins mediated by cytoplasmic histone deacetylase HDA714 is required for plant tolerance to heat stress in rice. Heat stress reduces overall protein lysine acetylation, which depends on HDA714. Being induced by heat stress, HDA714 loss of function reduces, but its overexpression enhances rice tolerance to heat stress. Under heat stress, HDA714-mediated deacetylation of metabolic enzymes stimulates glycolysis. In addition, HDA714 protein is found within heat-induced stress granules (SGs), and many SG proteins are acetylated under normal temperature. HDA714 interacts with and deacetylates several SG proteins. HDA714 loss of function increases SG protein acetylation levels and impairs SG formation. Collectively, these results indicate that HDA714 responds to heat stress to deacetylate cellular proteins, control metabolic activities, stimulate SG formation, and confer heat tolerance in rice.

Abstract
Plants frequently encounter adverse conditions and stress during their lives. Abscisic acid (ABA) plays a crucial role in response to salt stress, and dynamic regulation of ABA levels is essential for plant growth and stress resistance. In this study, we identified a transcription factor, OsSGL (Oryza sativa Stress tolerance and Grain Length), which acts as a negative regulator in salt stress, controlling ABA synthesis. OsSGL-overexpressing and mutant materials exhibited sensitivity and tolerance to salt stress, respectively. Notably, under salt treatment, several ABA-related genes, including the ABA synthesis enzyme OsNCED3 and the ABA response gene OsRAB21, were bound by OsSGL, leading to the inhibition of their transcription. Additionally, we found that a key enzyme involved in glycolysis, OsGAPC1, interacted with OsSGL and enhanced the inhibitory effect of OsSGL on OsNCED3. Upon salt stress, OsGAPC1 underwent acetylation and then translocated from the nucleus to the cytoplasm, partially alleviating the inhibitory effect of OsSGL on OsNCED3. Identification of the OsGAPC1-OsSGL module revealed a negative regulatory mechanism involved in the response of rice to salt stress. This discovery provides insight into the dynamic regulation of ABA synthesis in plants under salt stress conditions, highlighting the delicate balance between stress resistance and growth regulation.

Abstract
Developmental and environmental constraints influence genome expression through complex networks of regulatory mechanisms. Epigenetic modifications and remodelling of chromatin are some of the major actors regulating the dynamic of gene expression. Unravelling the factors relaying environmental signals that induce gene expression reprogramming under stress conditions is an important and fundamental question. Indeed, many enzymes involved in epigenetic and chromatin modifications are regulated by redox pathways, through post-translational modifications of proteins or by modifications of the flux of metabolic intermediates. Such modifications are potential hubs to relay developmental and environmental changes for gene expression reprogramming. In this review, we provide an update on the interaction between major redox mediators, such as reactive oxygen and nitrogen species and antioxidants, and epigenetic changes in plants. We detail how redox status alters post-translational modifications of proteins, intracellular epigenetic and epitranscriptional modifications, and how redox regulation interplays with DNA methylation, histone acetylation and methylation, miRNA biogenesis, and chromatin structure and remodelling to reprogram genome expression under environmental constraints.

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY AND BIOCHEMISTRY : PPB 2024; 213:108841.

Abstract
Epigenetic modifications, such as histone alterations, play crucial roles in regulating the flowering process in Arabidopsis, a typical long-day model plant. Histone modifications are notably involved in the intricate regulation of FLC, a key inhibitor of flowering. Although sirtuin-like protein and NAD+-dependent deacetylases play an important role in regulating energy metabolism, plant stress responses, and hormonal signal transduction, the mechanisms underlying their developmental transitions remain unclear. Thus, this study aimed to reveal how Arabidopsis NAD + -dependent deacetylase AtSRT1 affects flowering by regulating the expression of flowering integrators. Genetic and molecular evidence demonstrated that AtSRT1 mediates histone deacetylation by directly binding near the transcriptional start sites (TSS) of the flowering integrator genes FT and SOC1 and negatively regulating their expression by modulating the expression of the downstream gene LFY to inhibit flowering. Additionally, AtSRT1 directly down-regulates the expression of TOR, a glucose-driven central hub of energy signaling, which controls cell metabolism and growth in response to nutritional and environmental factors. This down-regulation occurs through binding near the TSS of TOR, facilitating the addition of H3K27me3 marks on FLC via the TOR-FIE-PRC2 pathway, further repressing flowering. These results uncover a multi-pathway regulatory network involving deacetylase AtSRT1 during the flowering process, highlighting its interaction with TOR as a hub for the coordinated regulation of energy metabolism and flowering initiation. These findings significantly enhance understanding of the complexity of histone modifications in the regulation of flowering.

Abstract
Changes in the cellular redox balance that occur during plant responses to unfavourable environmental conditions significantly affect a myriad of redox-sensitive processes, including those that impact on the epigenetic state of the chromatin. Various epigenetic factors, like histone modifying enzymes, chromatin remodelers, and DNA methyltransferases can be targeted by oxidative posttranslational modifications. As their combined action affects the epigenetic regulation of gene expression, they form an integral part of plant responses to (a)biotic stress. Epigenetic changes triggered by unfavourable environmental conditions are intrinsically linked with primary metabolism that supplies intermediates and donors, such acetyl-CoA and S-adenosyl-methionine, that are critical for the epigenetic decoration of histones and DNA. Here, we review the recent advances in our understanding of redox regulation of chromatin remodelling, dynamics of epigenetic marks, and the interplay between epigenetic control of gene expression, redox signalling and primary metabolism within an (a)biotic stress context.

Abstract
Female willows exhibit greater drought tolerance and benefit more from exogenous acetic acid (AA)-improved drought tolerance than males. However, the potential mechanisms driving these sex-specific responses remain unclear. To comprehensively investigate the sexually dimorphic responsive mechanisms of willows to drought and exogenous AA, here, we performed physiological, proteomic, Lys-acetylproteomic, and transgenic analyses in female and male Salix myrtillacea exposed to drought and AA-applicated drought treatments, focusing on protein abundance and lysine acetylation (LysAc) changes. Drought-tolerant females suffered less drought-induced photosynthetic and oxidative damage, did not activate AA and acetyl-CoA biosynthesis, TCA cycle, fatty acid metabolism, and jasmonic acid signaling as strongly as drought-sensitive males. Exogenous AA caused overaccumulation of endogenous AA and inhibition of acetyl-CoA biosynthesis and utilization in males. However, exogenous AA greatly enhanced acetyl-CoA biosynthesis and utilization and further enhanced drought performance of females, possibly determining that AA improved drought tolerance more in females than in males. Interestingly, overexpression of acetyl-CoA synthetase (ACS) could reprogram fatty acids, increase LysAc levels, and improve drought tolerance, highlighting the involvement of ACS-derived acetyl-CoA in drought responses. In addition, drought and exogenous AA induced sexually dimorphic LysAc associated with histones, transcription factors, and metabolic enzymes in willows. Especially, exogenous AA may greatly improve the photosynthetic capacity of S. myrtillacea males by decreasing LysAc levels and increasing the abundances of photosynthetic proteins. While hyperacetylation in glycolysis, TCA cycle, and fatty acid biosynthesis potentially possibly serve as negative feedback to acclimate acetyl-CoA biosynthesis and utilization in drought-stressed males and AA-applicated females. Thus, acetyl-CoA biosynthesis and utilization determine the sexually dimorphic responses of S. myrtillacea to drought and exogenous AA.

Abstract
Plants are sessile organisms that are often subjected to a multitude of environmental stresses, with the occurrence of these events being further intensified by global climate change. Crop species therefore require specific adaptations to tolerate climatic variability for sustainable food production. Plant stress results in excess accumulation of reactive oxygen species leading to oxidative stress and loss of cellular redox balance in the plant cells. Moreover, enhancement of cellular oxidation as well as oxidative signals has been recently recognized as crucial players in plant growth regulation under stress conditions. Multiple roles of redox regulation in crop production have been well documented, and major emphasis has focused on key redox-regulated proteins and non-protein molecules, such as NAD(P)H, glutathione, peroxiredoxins, glutaredoxins, ascorbate, thioredoxins and reduced ferredoxin. These have been widely implicated in the regulation of (epi)genetic factors modulating growth and health of crop plants, with an agricultural context. In this regard, priming with the employment of chemical and biological agents has emerged as a fascinating approach to improve plant tolerance against various abiotic and biotic stressors. Priming in plants is a physiological process, where prior exposure to specific stressors induces a state of heightened alertness, enabling a more rapid and effective defense response upon subsequent encounters with similar challenges. Priming is reported to play a crucial role in the modulation of cellular redox homeostasis, maximizing crop productivity under stress conditions and thus achieving yield security. By taking this into consideration, the present review is an up-to-date critical evaluation of promising plant priming technologies and their role in the regulation of redox components toward enhanced plant adaptations to extreme unfavorable environmental conditions. The challenges and opportunities of plant priming are discussed, with an aim of encouraging future research in this field toward effective application of priming in stress management in crops including horticultural species.

Abstract
B vitamins are a source of coenzymes for a vast array of enzyme reactions, particularly those of metabolism. As metabolism is the basis of decisions that drive maintenance, growth, and development, B vitamin-derived coenzymes are key components that facilitate these processes. For over a century, we have known about these essential compounds and have elucidated their pathways of biosynthesis, repair, salvage, and degradation in numerous organisms. Only now are we beginning to understand their importance for regulatory processes, which are becoming an important topic in plants. Here, I highlight and discuss emerging evidence on how B vitamins are integrated into vital processes, from energy generation and nutrition to gene expression, and thereby contribute to the coordination of growth and developmental programs, particularly those that concern maintenance of a stable state, which is the foundational tenet of plant homeostasis.

Abstract
Sirtuins (SRTs) are a group of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent deacetylase that target both histone and nonhistone proteins. The biological function of SRT in horticultural plants has been rarely studied. In this study, FaSRT1-2 was identified as a key member of the 8 FaSRTs encoded in cultivated strawberry genome. Transient overexpression of FaSRT1-2 in strawberry fruit accelerated ripening, increased the content of anthocyanins and sugars, enhanced ripening-related gene expression. Moreover, stable transformation of FaSRT1-2 in strawberry plants resulted in enhanced vegetative growth, increased sensitivity to heat stress and increased susceptibility to Botrytis cinerea infection. Interestingly, knocking out the homologous gene in woodland strawberry had the opposite effects. Additionally, we found the content of stress-related hormone abscisic acid (ABA) was decreased, while the growth-related gibberellin (GA) concentration was increased in FaSRT1-2 overexpression lines. Gene expression analysis revealed induction of heat shock proteins, transcription factors, stress-related and antioxidant genes in the FaSRT1-2-overexpressed plants while knocked-out of the gene had the opposite impact. In conclusion, our findings demonstrated that FaSRT1-2 could positively promote strawberry plant vegetative growth and fruit ripening by affecting ABA and GA pathways. However, it negatively regulates the resistance to heat stress and B. cinerea infection by influencing the related gene expression.

Abstract
Low temperature is a major environmental factor limiting plant growth and crop production. Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is important for plant adaptation to environmental changes, whereas the epigenetic mechanism of cold signaling in rice (Oryza sativa) remains largely elusive. Here, we report that the histone deacetylase (HDAC) OsHDA716 represses rice cold tolerance by interacting with and deacetylating the transcription factor OsbZIP46. The loss-of-function mutants of OsHDA716 exhibit enhanced chilling tolerance, compared with the wild-type plants, while OsHDA716 overexpression plants show chilling hypersensitivity. On the contrary, OsbZIP46 confers chilling tolerance in rice through transcriptionally activating OsDREB1A and COLD1 to regulate cold-induced calcium influx and cytoplasmic calcium elevation. Mechanistic investigation showed that OsHDA716-mediated OsbZIP46 deacetylation in the DNA-binding domain reduces the DNA-binding ability and transcriptional activity as well as decreasing OsbZIP46 protein stability. Genetic evidence indicated that OsbZIP46 deacetylation mediated by OsHDA716 reduces rice chilling tolerance. Collectively, these findings reveal that the functional interplay between the chromatin regulator and transcription factor fine-tunes the cold response in plant and uncover a mechanism by which HDACs repress gene transcription through deacetylating nonhistone proteins and regulating their biochemical functions.

Abstract
High temperature stress (HTS) is a serious threat to plant growth and development and to crop production in the context of global warming, and plant response to HTS is largely regulated at the transcriptional level by the actions of various transcription factors (TFs). However, whether and how homeodomain-leucine zipper (HD-Zip) TFs are involved in thermotolerance are unclear. Herein, we functionally characterized a pepper (Capsicum annuum) HD-Zip I TF CaHDZ15. CaHDZ15 expression was upregulated by HTS and abscisic acid in basal thermotolerance via loss- and gain-of-function assays by virus-induced gene silencing in pepper and overexpression in Nicotiana benthamiana plants. CaHDZ15 acted positively in pepper basal thermotolerance by directly targeting and activating HEAT SHOCK FACTORA6a (HSFA6a), which further activated CaHSFA2. In addition, CaHDZ15 interacted with HEAT SHOCK PROTEIN 70-2 (CaHsp70-2) and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase1 (CaGAPC1), both of which positively affected pepper thermotolerance. CaHsp70-2 and CaGAPC1 promoted CaHDZ15 binding to the promoter of CaHSFA6a, thus enhancing its transcription. Furthermore, CaHDZ15 and CaGAPC1 were protected from 26S proteasome-mediated degradation by CaHsp70-2 via physical interaction. These results collectively indicate that CaHDZ15, modulated by the interacting partners CaGAPC1 and CaHsp70-2, promotes basal thermotolerance by directly activating the transcript of CaHSFA6a. Thus, a molecular linkage is established among CaHsp70-2, CaGAPC1, and CaHDZ15 to transcriptionally modulate CaHSFA6a in pepper thermotolerance.

Abstract
Microalgae, valued for their sustainability and CO2 fixation capabilities, are emerging as promising sources of biofuels and high-value compounds. This study aimed to boost lipid production in C. reinhardtii by overexpressing chloroplast glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a key enzyme in the Calvin cycle and glycolysis, under the control of a nitrogen-inducible NIT1 promoter, to positively impact overall carbon metabolism. The standout transformant, PNG#7, exhibited significantly increased lipid production under nitrogen starvation, with biomass rising by 44% and 76% on days 4 and 16, respectively. Fatty acid methyl ester (FAME) content in PNG#7 surged by 2.4-fold and 2.1-fold, notably surpassing the wild type (WT) in lipid productivity by 3.4 and 3.7 times on days 4 and 16, respectively. Transcriptome analysis revealed a tenfold increase in transgenic GAPDH expression and significant upregulation of genes involved in fatty acid and triacylglycerol synthesis, especially the gene encoding acyl-carrier protein gene (ACP, Cre13. g577100. t1.2). In contrast, genes related to cellulose synthesis were downregulated. Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP)/Indel analysis indicated substantial DNA modifications, which likely contributed to the observed extensive transcriptomic and phenotypic changes. These findings suggest that overexpressing chloroplast GAPDH, coupled with genetic modifications, effectively enhances lipid synthesis in C. reinhardtii. This study not only underscores the potential of chloroplast GAPDH overexpression in microalgal lipid synthesis but also highlights the expansive potential of metabolic engineering in microalgae for biofuel production.

Abstract
Lysine acetylation is a reversible, dynamic protein modification regulated by lysine acetyltransferases and deacetylases. However, in Basidiomycetes, the extent of lysine acetylation of nonhistone proteins remains largely unknown. Recently, we identified the deacetylase Glsirt1 as a key regulator of the biosynthesis of ganoderic acid (GA), a key secondary metabolite of Ganoderma lucidum. To gain insight into the characteristics, extent, and biological function of Glsirt1-mediated lysine acetylation in G. lucidum, we aimed to identify additional Glsirt1 substrates via comparison of acetylomes between wild-type (WT) and Glsirt1-silenced mutants. A large amount of Glsirt1-dependent lysine acetylation occurs in G. lucidum according to the results of this omics analysis, involving energy metabolism, protein synthesis, the stress response and other pathways. Our results suggest that GlCAT is a direct target of Glsirt1 and that the deacetylation of GlCAT by Glsirt1 reduces catalase activity, thereby leading to the accumulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and positively regulating the biosynthesis of GA. Our findings provide evidence for the involvement of nonhistone lysine acetylation in the biological processes of G. lucidum and help elucidate the involvement of important ROS signaling molecules in regulating physiological and biochemical processes in this organism. In conclusion, this proteomic analysis reveals a striking breadth of cellular processes affected by lysine acetylation and provides new nodes of intervention in the biosynthesis of secondary metabolites in G. lucidum.

NATURE PLANTS 2024; 10:439-452.

Abstract
Histone acetylation is a predominant active chromatin mark deposited by histone acetyltransferases (HATs) that transfer the acetyl group from acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) to lysine ε-amino groups in histones. GENERAL CONTROL NON-REPRESSED PROTEIN 5 (GCN5) is one of the best-characterized HATs and functions in association with several adaptor proteins such as ADA2 within multiprotein HAT complexes. ADA2-GCN5 interaction increases GCN5 binding to acetyl-CoA and stimulates its HAT activity. It remains unclear whether the HAT activity of GCN5 (which acetylates not only histones but also cellular proteins) is regulated by acetyl-CoA levels, which vary greatly in cells under different metabolic and nutrition conditions. Here we show that the ADA2 protein itself is acetylated by GCN5 in rice cells. Lysine acetylation exposes ADA2 to a specific E3 ubiquitin ligase and reduces its protein stability. In rice plants, ADA2 protein accumulation reversely parallels its lysine acetylation and acetyl-CoA levels, both of which are dynamically regulated under varying growth conditions. Stress-induced ADA2 accumulation could stimulate GCN5 HAT activity to compensate for the reduced acetyl-CoA levels for histone acetylation. These results indicate that ADA2 lysine acetylation that senses cellular acetyl-CoA variations is a mechanism to regulate HAT activity and histone acetylation homeostasis in plants under changing environments.

Abstract
Apart from the canonical serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine [5-HT])-receptor signaling transduction pattern, 5-HT-involved post-translational serotonylation has recently been noted. Here, we report a glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) serotonylation system that promotes the glycolytic metabolism and antitumor immune activity of CD8+ T cells. Tissue transglutaminase 2 (TGM2) transfers 5-HT to GAPDH glutamine 262 and catalyzes the serotonylation reaction. Serotonylation supports the cytoplasmic localization of GAPDH, which induces a glycolytic metabolic shift in CD8+ T cells and contributes to antitumor immunity. CD8+ T cells accumulate intracellular 5-HT for serotonylation through both synthesis by tryptophan hydroxylase 1 (TPH1) and uptake from the extracellular compartment via serotonin transporter (SERT). Monoamine oxidase A (MAOA) degrades 5-HT and acts as an intrinsic negative regulator of CD8+ T cells. The adoptive transfer of 5-HT-producing TPH1-overexpressing chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR-T) cells induced a robust antitumor response. Our findings expand the known range of neuroimmune interaction patterns by providing evidence of receptor-independent serotonylation post-translational modification.

Abstract
Rice false smut caused by Ustilaginoidea virens is a devastating rice (Oryza sativa) disease worldwide. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying U. virens-rice interactions are largely unknown. In this study, we identified a secreted protein, Uv1809, as a key virulence factor. Heterologous expression of Uv1809 in rice enhanced susceptibility to rice false smut and bacterial blight. Host-induced gene silencing of Uv1809 in rice enhanced resistance to U. virens, suggesting that Uv1809 inhibits rice immunity and promotes infection by U. virens. Uv1809 suppresses rice immunity by targeting and enhancing rice histone deacetylase OsSRT2-mediated histone deacetylation, thereby reducing H4K5ac and H4K8ac levels and interfering with the transcriptional activation of defence genes. CRISPR-Cas9 edited ossrt2 mutants showed no adverse effects in terms of growth and yield but displayed broad-spectrum resistance to rice pathogens, revealing a potentially valuable genetic resource for breeding disease resistance. Our study provides insight into defence mechanisms against plant pathogens that inactivate plant immunity at the epigenetic level.

Abstract
Membrane lipidomes are dynamic and their changes generate lipid mediators affecting various biological processes. Phosphatidic acid (PA) has emerged as an important class of lipid mediators involved in a wide range of cellular and physiological responses in plants, animals, and microbes. The regulatory functions of PA have been studied primarily outside the nuclei, but an increasing number of recent studies indicates that some of the PA effects result from its action in nuclei. PA levels in nuclei are dynamic in response to stimuli. Changes in nuclear PA levels can result from activities of enzymes associated with nuclei and/or from movements of PA generated extranuclearly. PA has also been found to interact with proteins involved in nuclear functions, such as transcription factors and proteins undergoing nuclear translocation in response to stimuli. The nuclear action of PA affects various aspects of plant growth, development, and response to stress and environmental changes.

Abstract
Sirtuins are Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD+) dependent class ІΙΙ histone deacetylases enzymes (HDACs) present from lower to higher organisms such as bacteria (Sulfolobus solfataricus L. major), yeasts (Saccharomyces cerevisiae), nematodes (Caenorhabditis elegans), fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster), humans (Homo sapiens sapiens), even in plants such as rice (Oryza sativa), thale cress (Arabidopsis thaliana), vine (Vitis vinifera L.) tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). Sirtuins play an important role in the regulation of various vital cellular functions during metabolism and ageing. It also plays a neuroprotective role by modulating several biological pathways such as apoptosis, DNA repair, protein aggregation, and inflammatory processes associated with ageing and neurodegenerative diseases. In this review, we have presented an updated Sirtuins and its role in ageing and age-related neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs). Further, this review also describes the therapeutic potential of Sirtuins and the use of Sirtuins inhibitor/activator for altering the NDDs disease pathology.

Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase Gh_GAPDH9 is associated with drought resistance in Gossypium hirsutum. PeerJ 2023; 11:e16445.

Abstract
Background Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is the central enzyme of glycolysis and plays important regulatory roles in plant growth and development and responses to adverse stress conditions. However, studies on the characteristics and functions of cotton GAPDH family genes are still lacking. Methods In this study, genome-wide identification of the cotton GAPDH gene family was performed, and the phylogeny, gene structures, promoter progenitors and expression profiles of upland cotton GAPDH gene family members were explored by bioinformatics analysis to highlight potential functions. The functions of GhGAPDH9 in response to drought stress were initially validated based on RNA-seq, qRT‒PCR, VIGS techniques and overexpression laying a foundation for further studies on the functions of GAPDH genes. Results This study is the first systematic analysis of the cotton GAPDH gene family, which contains a total of 84 GAPDH genes, among which upland cotton contains 27 members. Quantitative, phylogenetic and covariance analyses of the genes revealed that the GAPDH gene family has been conserved during the evolution of cotton. Promoter analysis revealed that most cis-acting elements were related to MeJA and ABA. Based on the identified promoter cis-acting elements and RNA-seq data, it was hypothesized that Gh_GAPDH9, Gh_GAPDH11, Gh_GAPDH19 and Gh_GAPDH21 are involved in the response of cotton to abiotic stress. The expression levels of the Gh_GAPDH9 gene in two drought-resistant and two drought-sensitive materials were analyzed by qRT‒PCR and found to be high early in the treatment period in the drought-resistant material. The silencing of Gh_GAPDH9 based on virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) technology resulted in significant leaf wilting or whole-plant dieback in silenced plants after drought stress compared to the control. The content of-malondialdehyde (MDA) in cotton leaves was significantly increased, and the content of proline (Pro) and chlorophyll (Chl) was reduced. In addition, the leaf wilting and dryness of transgenic lines under drought stress were lower than those of wild-type Arabidopsis, indicating that Gh_GAPDH9 is a positive regulator of drought resistance. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that GAPDH genes play an important role in the response of cotton to abiotic stresses and provide preliminary validation of the function of the Gh_GAPDH9 gene under drought stress. These findings provide an important theoretical basis for further studies on the function of the Gh_GAPDH9 gene and the molecular mechanism of the drought response in cotton.

Abstract
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are important chromatin regulators essential for plant tolerance to adverse environments. In addition to histone deacetylation and epigenetic regulation, HDACs deacetylate non-histone proteins and thereby regulate multiple pathways. Like other post-translational modifications (PTMs), acetylation/deacetylation is a reversible switch regulating different cellular processes in plants. Here, by focusing on results obtained in arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) and rice plants, we analyze the different aspects of HDAC functions and the underlying regulatory mechanisms in modulating plant responses to stress. We hypothesize that, in addition to epigenetic regulation of gene expression, HDACs can also control plant tolerance to stress by regulating transcription, translation, and metabolic activities and possibly assembly-disassembly of stress granules (SGs) through lysine deacetylation of non-histone proteins.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated vesicular formation and trafficking are responsible for molecular cargo transport and signal transduction among organelles. Our previous study shows that CHLOROPLAST VESICULATION (CV)-containing vesicles (CVVs) are generated from chloroplasts for chloroplast degradation under abiotic stress. Here, we show that CV interacts with the clathrin heavy chain (CHC) and induces vesicle budding toward the cytosol from the chloroplast inner envelope membrane. In the defective mutants of CHC2 and the dynamin-encoding DRP1A, CVV budding and releasing from chloroplast are impeded. The mutations of CHC2 inhibit CV-induced chloroplast degradation and hypersensitivity to water stress. Moreover, CV-CHC2 interaction is impaired by the oxidized GLYCERALDEHYDE-3-PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE (GAPC). GAPC1 overexpression suppresses CV-mediated chloroplast degradation and hypersensitivity to water stress, while CV silencing alleviates the hypersensitivity of the gapc1gapc2 plant to water stress. Together, our work identifies a pathway of clathrin-assisted CVV budding outward from chloroplast, which is involved in chloroplast degradation and stress response.

Abstract
As a consequence of global climate change, the frequency, severity, and duration of heat stress are increasing, impacting plant growth, development, and reproduction. While several studies have focused on the physiological and molecular aspects of heat stress, there is growing concern that crop quality, particularly nutritional content and phytochemicals important for human health, is also negatively impacted. This comprehensive review aims to provide profound insights into the multifaceted effects of heat stress on plant-nutrient relationships, with a particular emphasis on tissue nutrient concentration, the pivotal nutrient-uptake proteins unique to both macro- and micronutrients, and the effects on dietary phytochemicals. Finally, we propose a new approach to investigate the response of plants to heat stress by exploring the possible role of plant peroxisomes in the context of heat stress and nutrient mobilization. Understanding these complex mechanisms is crucial for developing strategies to improve plant nutrition and resilience during heat stress.

Abstract
Integration of reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated signal transduction pathways via redox sensors and the thiol-dependent signalling network is of increasing interest in cell biology for their implications in plant growth and productivity. Redox regulation is an important point of control in protein structure, interactions, cellular location, and function, with thioredoxins (TRXs) and glutaredoxins (GRXs) being key players in the maintenance of cellular redox homeostasis. The crosstalk between second messengers, ROS, thiol redox signalling, and redox homeostasis-related genes controls almost every aspect of plant development and stress response. We review the emerging roles of TRXs and GRXs in redox-regulated processes interacting with other cell signalling systems such as organellar retrograde communication and gene expression, especially in plants during their development and under stressful environments. This approach will cast light on the specific role of these proteins as redox signalling components, and their importance in different developmental processes during abiotic stress.

Abstract
Glycosylation is a widespread glycosyl modification that regulates gene expression and metabolite bioactivity in all life processes of plants. Phosphoribosylation is a special glycosyl modification catalyzed by phosphoribosyltransferase (PRTase), which functions as a key step in the biosynthesis pathway of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides, histidine, tryptophan, and coenzyme NAD(P)+ to control the production of these essential metabolites. Studies in the past decades have reported that PRTases are indispensable for plant survival and thriving, whereas the complicated physiological role of PRTases in plant life and their crosstalk is not well understood. Here, we comprehensively overview and critically discuss the recent findings on PRTases, including their classification, as well as the function and crosstalk in regulating plant development, abiotic stress response, and the balance of growth and stress responses. This review aims to increase the understanding of the role of plant PRTase and also contribute to future research on the trade-off between plant growth and stress response.

Abstract
Introduction Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is an essential key enzyme in the glycolytic pathway and plays an important role in stress responses. Although GAPDH family genes have been found in different plant species, the determination of their gene family analysis and their functional roles in soybean are still unknown. Methods In this study, gene sequence and expression data were obtained using online tools, and systematic evolution, expression profile analysis, and qRT-PCR analysis were conducted. Results and Discussion Here a total of 16 GmGAPDH genes were identified on nine chromosomes, which were classified into three clusters. Additionally, all GmGAPDH genes harbor two highly conserved domains, including Gp_dh_N (PF00044) and Gp_dh_C (PF02800). The qRTPCR analysis also showed that most GmGAPDH genes significantly responded to multiple abiotic stresses, including NaHCO3, polyethylene glycol, cold, and salt. Among them, GmGAPDH14 was extraordinarily induced by salt stress. The GmGAPDH14 gene was cloned and overexpressed through soybean hair roots. The overexpressed transgenic soybean plants of the GmGAPDH14 gene have also shown better growth than that of control plants. Moreover, the overexpressed transgenic plants of GmGAPDH14 gene had higher activities of superoxide dismutase but lower malonaldehyde (MDA) content than those of control plants under salt stress. Meanwhile, a total of four haplotypes were found for the GmGAPDH14 gene, and haplotypes 2, 3, and 4 were beneficial for the tolerance of soybean to salt stress. These results suggest that the GmGAPDH14 gene might be involved in the process of soybean tolerance to salt stress. The results of this study will be valuable in understanding the role of GAPDH genes in the abiotic stress response of soybean.

Abstract
Chromatin modifications shape the epigenome and are essential for gene expression reprogramming during plant development and adaptation to the changing environment. Chromatin modification enzymes require primary metabolic intermediates such as S-adenosyl-methionine, acetyl-CoA, alpha-ketoglutarate, and NAD+ as substrates or cofactors. The availability of the metabolites depends on cellular nutrients, energy and reduction/oxidation (redox) states, and affects the activity of chromatin regulators and the epigenomic landscape. The changes in the plant epigenome and the activity of epigenetic regulators in turn control cellular metabolism through transcriptional and post-translational regulation of metabolic enzymes. The interplay between metabolism and the epigenome constitutes a basis for metabolic control of plant growth and response to environmental changes. This review summarizes recent advances regarding the metabolic control of plant chromatin regulators and epigenomes, which are involved in plant adaption to environmental stresses.

Abstract
Glycyrrhiza inflata Batalin is a medicinal licorice species that has been widely used by humans for centuries. Licochalcone A (LCA) is a characteristic flavonoid that accumulates in G. inflata roots with high economical value. However, the biosynthetic pathway and regulatory network of its accumulation remain largely unknown. Here we found that a histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor nicotinamide (NIC) could enhance the accumulation of LCA and total flavonoids in G. inflata seedlings. GiSRT2, a NIC-targeted HDAC was functionally analyzed and its RNAi transgenic hairy roots accumulated much more LCA and total flavonoids than its OE lines and the controls, indicating a negative regulatory role of GiSRT2 in the accumulation of LCA and total flavonoids. Co-analysis of transcriptome and metabolome of RNAi-GiSRT2 lines revealed potential mechanisms in this process. An O-methyltransferase gene, GiLMT1 was up-regulated in RNAi-GiSRT2 lines and the encoded enzyme catalyzed an intermediate step in LCA biosynthesis pathway. Transgenic hairy roots of GiLMT1 proved that GiLMT1 is required for LCA accumulation. Together, this work highlights the critical role of GiSRT2 in the regulation of flavonoid biosynthesis and identifies GiLMT1 as a candidate gene for the biosynthesis of LCA with synthetic biology approaches.

Abstract
Here, we reported the complete profiling of the crotonylation proteome in common wheat. Through a combination of crotonylation and multi-omics analysis, we identified a TaPGK associated with wheat cold stress. Then, we confirmed the positive role of TaPGK-modulating wheat cold tolerance. Meanwhile, we found that cold stress induced lysine crotonylation of TaPGK. Moreover, we screened a lysine decrotonylase TaSRT1 interacting with TaPGK and found that TaSRT1 negatively regulated wheat cold tolerance. We subsequently demonstrated TaSRT1 inhibiting the accumulation of TaPGK protein, and this inhibition was possibly resulted from decrotonylation of TaPGK by TaSRT1. Transcriptome sequencing indicated that overexpression of TaPGK activated glycolytic key genes and thereby increased pyruvate content. Moreover, we found that exogenous application of pyruvate sharply enhanced wheat cold tolerance. These findings suggest that the TaSRT1-TaPGK model regulating wheat cold tolerance is possibly through mediating pyruvate. This study provided two valuable cold tolerance genes and dissected diverse mechanism of glycolytic pathway involving in wheat cold stress.

Regulation of chlorophyll biosynthesis by light-dependent acetylation of NADPH:protochlorophyll oxidoreductase A in Arabidopsis. PLANT SCIENCE : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2023; 330:111641. [PMID: 36806610 DOI: 10.1016/j.plantsci.2023.111641] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2022] [Revised: 01/31/2023] [Accepted: 02/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/18/2023]
Abstract
Chlorophylls are the major pigments that harvest light energy during photosynthesis in plants. Although reactions in chlorophyll biogenesis have been largely known, little attention has been paid to the post-translational regulation mechanism of this process. In this study, we found that four lysine sites (K128/340/350/390) of NADPH:protochlorophyllide oxidoreductase A (PORA), which catalyzes the only light-triggered step in chlorophyll biosynthesis, were acetylated after dark-grown seedlings transferred to light via acetylomics analysis. Etiolated seedlings with K390 mutation of PORA had a lower greening rate and decreased PORA acetylation after illumination. Importantly, K390 of PORA was found extremely conserved in plants and cyanobacteria via bioinformatics analysis. We further demonstrated that the acetylation level of PORA was increased by exposing the dark-grown seedlings to the histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor TSA. Thus, the HDACs probably regulate the acetylation of PORA, thereby controlling this non-histone substrate to catalyze the reduction of Pchlide to produce chlorophyllide, which provides a novel regulatory mechanism by which the plant actively tunes chlorophyll biosynthesis during the conversion from skotomorphogenesis to photomorphogenesis.

Abstract
High salt is a major environmental factor that threatens plant growth and development. Increasing evidence indicates that histone acetylation is involved in plant responses to various abiotic stress; however, the underlying epigenetic regulatory mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this study, we revealed that the histone deacetylase OsHDA706 epigenetically regulates the expression of salt stress response genes in rice (Oryza sativa L.). OsHDA706 localizes to the nucleus and cytoplasm and OsHDA706 expression is significantly induced under salt stress. Moreover, oshda706 mutants showed a higher sensitivity to salt stress than the wild-type. In vivo and in vitro enzymatic activity assays demonstrated that OsHDA706 specifically regulates the deacetylation of lysines 5 and 8 on histone H4 (H4K5 and H4K8). By combining chromatin immunoprecipitation and mRNA sequencing, we identified the clade A protein phosphatase 2 C gene, OsPP2C49, which is involved in the salt response as a direct target of H4K5 and H4K8 acetylation. We found that the expression of OsPP2C49 is induced in the oshda706 mutant under salt stress. Furthermore, the knockout of OsPP2C49 enhances plant tolerance to salt stress, while its overexpression has the opposite effect. Taken together, our results indicate that OsHDA706, a histone H4 deacetylase, participates in the salt stress response by regulating the expression of OsPP2C49 via H4K5 and H4K8 deacetylation.

An enhanced network of energy metabolism, lysine acetylation, and growth-promoting protein accumulation is associated with heterosis in elite hybrid rice. PLANT COMMUNICATIONS 2023:100560.

Abstract
Heterosis refers to the superior performance of a hybrid compared with its parental lines. Although several genetic and molecular models have been proposed to explain heterosis, it remains unclear how hybrid cells integrate complementary gene expression or activity to drive heterotic growth. In this work, we show that accumulation of growth-promoting and energy metabolism proteins, enhanced energy metabolism activities, and increased protein lysine acetylation were associated with superior growth of the panicle meristem in the elite hybrid rice Shanyou 63 relative to its parental varieties. Metabolism of nuclear/cytosolic acetyl-coenzyme A was also enhanced in the hybrid, which paralleled increases in histone H3 acetylation to selectively target the expression of growth-promoting and metabolic genes. Lysine acetylation of cellular proteins, including TARGET OF RAPAMYCIN complex 1, ribosomal proteins, and energy metabolism enzymes, was also augmented and/or remodeled to modulate their activities. The data indicate that an enhanced network of energy-producing metabolic activity and growth-promoting histone acetylation/gene expression in the hybrid could contribute to its superior growth rate and may constitute a model to explain heterosis.

Abstract
Climate change has escalated the effect of drought on crop production as it has negatively altered the environmental condition. Wild watermelon grows abundantly in the Kgalagadi desert even though the environment is characterized by minimal rainfall, high temperatures and intense sunshine during growing season. This area is also characterized by sandy soils with low water holding capacity, thus bringing about drought stress. Drought stress affects crop productivity through its effects on development and physiological functions as dictated by molecular responses. Not only one or two physiological process or genes are responsible for drought tolerance, but a combination of various factors do work together to aid crop tolerance mechanism. Various studies have shown that wild watermelon possess superior qualities that aid its survival in unfavorable conditions. These mechanisms include resilient root growth, timely stomatal closure, chlorophyll fluorescence quenching under water deficit as key physiological responses. At biochemical and molecular level, the crop responds through citrulline accumulation and expression of genes associated with drought tolerance in this species and other plants. Previous salinity stress studies involving other plants have identified citrulline accumulation and expression of some of these genes (chloroplast APX, Type-2 metallothionein), to be associated with tolerance. Emerging evidence indicates that the upstream of functional genes are the transcription factor that regulates drought and salinity stress responses as well as adaptation. In this review we discuss the drought tolerance mechanisms in watermelons and some of its common indicators to salinity at physiological, biochemical and molecular level.

Abstract
Sirtuins are part of a gene family of NAD-dependent deacylases that act on histone and non-histone proteins and control a variety of activities in all living organisms. Their roles are mainly related to energy metabolism and include lifetime regulation, DNA repair, stress resistance, and proliferation. A large amount of knowledge concerning animal sirtuins is available, but data about their plant counterparts are scarce. Plants possess few sirtuins that have, like in animals, a recognized role in stress defense and metabolism regulation. However, engagement in proliferation control, which has been demonstrated for mammalian sirtuins, has not been reported for plant sirtuins so far. In this work, srt1 and srt2 Arabidopsis mutant seedlings have been used to evaluate in vivo the role of sirtuins in cell proliferation and regulation of glutamate dehydrogenase, an enzyme demonstrated to be involved in the control of cell cycle in SIRT4-defective human cells. Moreover, bioinformatic analyses have been performed to elucidate sequence, structure, and function relationships between Arabidopsis sirtuins and between each of them and the closest mammalian homolog. We found that cell proliferation and GDH activity are higher in mutant seedlings, suggesting that both sirtuins exert a physiological inhibitory role in these processes. In addition, mutant seedlings show plant growth and root system improvement, in line with metabolic data. Our data also indicate that utilization of an easy to manipulate organism, such as Arabidopsis plant, can help to shed light on the molecular mechanisms underlying the function of genes present in interkingdom species.

Abstract
Cytosolic glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPC) is a glycolytic enzyme, but undergoes stress-induced nuclear translocation for moonlighting. We previously reported that in response to heat stress, GAPC accumulated in the nucleus to modulate transcription and thermotolerance. Here we show a cellular and molecular mechanism that mediates heat-induced nuclear translocation of cytosolic GAPC in Arabidopsis thaliana. Heat-induced GAPC nuclear accumulation and plant heat tolerance were reduced in Arabidopsis phospholipase D (PLD) knockout mutants of pldδ and pldα1pldδ, but not of pldα1. These changes were restored to wild type by genetic complementation with active PLDδ, but not with catalytically inactive PLDδ. GAPC overexpression enhanced the seedling thermotolerance and the expression of heat-inducible genes, but this effect was abolished in the pldδ background. Heat stress elevated the levels of the PLD product phosphatidic acid (PA) in the nucleus in wild type, but not in pldδ plants. Lipid labeling demonstrated the heat-induced nuclear co-localization of PA and GAPC, which was impaired by zinc, which inhibited the PA-GAPC interaction, and by the membrane trafficking inhibitor brefeldin A (BFA). The GAPC nuclear accumulation and seedling thermotolerance were also decreased by treatment with zinc or BFA. Our data suggest that PLDδ and PA are critical for the heat-induced nuclear translocation of GAPC. We propose that PLDδ-produced PA mediates the process via lipid-protein interaction and that the lipid mediation acts as a cellular conduit linking stress perturbations at cell membranes to nuclear functions in plants coping with heat stress.

Abstract
The roles of sirtuins in plants are slowly unraveling. Regarding OsSRT1, there are only reports of its H3K9Ac deacetylation. Here we detect the other lysine deacetylation sites in histones, H3 and H4. Further, our studies shed light on its dual enzyme capability with preference for mono ADP ribosylation over deacetylation. OsSRT1 can specifically transfer the single ADP ribose group on its substrates in an enzymatic manner. This mono ADPr effect is not well known in plants, more so for deacetylases. The products of this reaction (NAM and ADP ribose) have a negative effect on this enzyme's action suggesting a tighter regulation. Resveratrol, a natural plant polyphenol proves to be a good activator of this enzyme at 150 ± 40 µM concentration. Under different abiotic stress conditions, we could link this ADP ribosylase activity to the DNA damage repair (DDR) pathway by activating the enzyme PARP1. There is also evidence of OsSRT1's interaction with the components of DDR machinery. Changes in the extent of different histone deacetylation by OsSRT1 is also related with these stress conditions. Metal stress in plants also influences these enzyme activities. Structurally there is a long C-terminal domain in OsSRT1 in comparison to other classes of plant sirtuins, which is required for its catalysis.

Abstract
We report the map-based cloning and functional characterization of SNG1, which encodes OsHXK3, a hexokinase-like protein that plays a pivotal role in controlling grain size in rice. Grain size is an important agronomic trait determining grain yield and appearance quality in rice. Here, we report the discovery of rice mutant short and narrow grain1 (sng1) with reduced grain length, width and weight. Map-based cloning revealed that the mutant phenotype was caused by loss of function of gene OsHXK3 that encodes a hexokinase-like (HKL) protein. OsHXK3 was associated with the mitochondria and was ubiquitously distributed in various organs, predominately in younger organs. Analysis of glucose (Glc) phosphorylation activities in young panicles and protoplasts showed that OsHXK3 was a non-catalytic hexokinase (HXK). Overexpression of OsHXK3 could not complement the Arabidopsis glucose insensitive2-1 (gin2-1) mutant, indicating that OsHXK3 lacked Glc signaling activity. Scanning electron microscopy analysis revealed that OsHXK3 affects grain size by promoting spikelet husk cell expansion. Knockout of other nine OsHXK genes except OsHXK3 individually did not change grain size, indicating that functions of OsHXKs have differentiated in rice. OsHXK3 influences gibberellin (GA) biosynthesis and homeostasis. Compared with wild type, OsGA3ox2 was significantly up-regulated and OsGA2ox1 was significantly down-regulated in young panicle of sng1, and concentrations of biologically active GAs were significantly decreased in young panicles of the mutants. The yield per plant of OsHXK3 overexpression lines (OE-4 and OE-35) was increased by 10.91% and 7.62%, respectively, compared to that of wild type. Our results provide evidence that an HXK lacking catalytic and sensory functions plays an important role in grain size and has the potential to increase yield in rice.

Abstract
Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), an essential enzyme of the glycolysis metabolic pathway, plays a vital role in carbon metabolism, plant development, and stress resistance. As a kind of woody plant, poplars are widely cultivated for afforestation. Although the whole genome data of poplars have been published, little information is known about the GAPDH family of genes in poplar. This study performed a genome-wide identification of the poplar GAPDH family, and 13 determined PtGAPDH genes were identified from poplar genome. Phylogenetic tree showed that the PtGAPDH members were divided into PtGAPA/B, PtGAPC, PtGAPCp, and PtGAPN groups. A total of 13 PtGAPDH genes were distributed on eight chromosomes, 13 gene pairs belonging to segmented replication events were detected in poplar, and 23 collinearity gene pairs were determined between poplar and willow. The PtGAPDHcis-acting elements associated with growth and development as well as stress resistance revealed that PtGAPDHs might be involved in these processes. The phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK) and triose-phosphate isomerase (TPI) were predicted as the putative interaction proteins of PtGAPDHs. Gene ontology (GO) analysis showed that PtGAPDHs play a crucial role in the oxidation and reduction processes. PtGAPDH expression levels were induced by NaCl and PEG treatments, which implied that PtGAPDHs might be involved in stress response. Overexpression of PtGAPC1 significantly changed the contents of lipid and carbohydrate metabolites, which indicated that PtGAPC1 plays an essential role in metabolic regulation. This study highlights the characterizations and profiles of PtGAPDHs and reveals that PtGAPC1 is involved in the loop of lipid and carbohydrate metabolisms.

ROS-stimulated Protein Lysine Acetylation Is Required for Crown Root Development in Rice. J Adv Res 2022:S2090-1232(22)00164-3. [PMID: 35908726 DOI: 10.1016/j.jare.2022.07.010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/10/2022] [Revised: 06/27/2022] [Accepted: 07/23/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION As signal molecules in aerobic organisms, locally accumulated ROS have been reported to balance cell division and differentiation in the root meristem. Protein posttranslational modifications such as lysine acetylation play critical roles in controlling a variety of cellular processes. However, the mechanism by which ROS regulate root development is unknown. In addition, how protein lysine acetylation is regulated and whether cellular ROS levels affect protein lysine acetylation remain unclear. OBJECTIVES We aimed to elucidate the relationship between ROS and protein acetylation by exploring a rice mutant plant that displays a decreased level of ROS in postembryonic crown root (CR) cells and severe defects in CR development. METHODS First, proteomic analysis was used to find candidate proteins responsible for the decrease of ROS detected in the wox11 mutant. Then, biochemical, molecular, and genetic analyses were used to study WOX11-regulated genes involved in ROS homeostasis. Finally, acetylproteomic analysis of wild type and wox11 roots treated with or without potassium iodide (KI) and peroxide (H2O2) were used to study the effects of ROS on protein acetylation in rice CR cells. RESULTS We demonstrated that WOX11 was required to maintain ROS homeostasis by upregulating peroxidase genes in the crown root meristem. Acetylproteomic analysis revealed that WOX11-dependent peroxide (H2O2) levels in CR cells promoted lysine acetylation of many non-histone proteins enriched for nitrogen metabolism and peptide/protein synthesis pathways. Further analysis revealed that the redox state affected histone deacetylases (HDACs) activity, which was likely related to the high levels of protein lysine acetylation in CR cells. CONCLUSION WOX11-controlled ROS level in CR meristem cells is required for protein lysine acetylation which represents a mechanism of ROS-promoted CR development in rice.

Abstract
Nitrate is a nutrient signal that regulates growth and development through NLP transcription factors in plants. Here we identify the L-aspartate oxidase gene (AO) necessary for de novo NAD+ biosynthesis as an NLP target in Arabidopsis. We investigated the physiological significance of nitrate-induced AO expression by expressing AO under the control of the mutant AO promoter lacking the NLP-binding site in the ao mutant. Despite morphological changes and severe reductions in fresh weight, the loss of nitrate-induced AO expression resulted in minimum effects on NAD(H) and NADP(H) contents, suggesting compensation of decreased de novo NAD+ biosynthesis by reducing the growth rate. Furthermore, metabolite profiling and transcriptome analysis revealed that the loss of nitrate-induced AO expression causes pronounced impacts on contents of TCA cycle- and urea cycle-related metabolites, gene expression profile, and their modifications in response to changes in the nitrogen nutrient condition. These results suggest that proper maintenance of metabolic balance requires the coordinated regulation of multiple metabolic pathways by NLP-mediated nitrate signaling in plants. NLP transcription factors directly regulate aspartate oxidase gene expression connected to multiple metabolic pathways in Arabidopsis in response to changes in the nitrogen nutrient condition.

Abstract
Osmotic stress caused by drought and high salinity is a significant environmental threat that limits plant growth and agricultural yield. Redox regulation plays an important role in plant stress responses, but the mechanisms by which plants perceive and transduce redox signals are still underexplored. Here, we report a critical function for the thiol peroxidase GPX1 in osmotic stress response in rice, where it serves as a redox sensor and transducer. GPX1 is quickly oxidized upon exposure to osmotic stress and forms an intramolecular disulfide bond, which is required for the activation of bZIP68, a VRE-like basic leucine zipper (bZIP) transcription factor involved in the ABA-independent osmotic stress response pathway. The disulfide exchange between GPX1 and bZIP68 induces homo-tetramerization of bZIP68 and thus positively regulates osmotic stress response by regulating osmotic-responsive gene expression. Furthermore, we discovered that the nuclear translocation of GPX1 is regulated by its acetylation under osmotic stress. Taken together, our findings not only uncover the redox regulation of the GPX1-bZIP68 module during osmotic stress but also highlight the coordination of protein acetylation and redox signaling in plant osmotic stress responses.

Abstract
The potato tuber is the main nutrient supply and reproductive organ; however, tuber sprouting can reduce its commercial value. Snakin-2 (StSN2) was first reported as an antimicrobial peptide that positively regulates potato disease resistance. Our recent study suggested StSN2 overexpression inhibited sprout growth, while the sprouting process was accelerated in StSN2 RNAi lines. Cytoplasmic glyceraldehyde-3- phosphate dehydrogenase 1 (StGAPC1) was identified as a candidate protein that interacts with StSN2 by coimmunoprecipitation/mass spectrometry (CoIP/MS) experiments. Here, we report that the expression levels of StSN2 and StGAPC1 decreased during sprouting compared with dormancy. Coexpression of StSN2 and StGAPC1 in bud eyes and apical buds was verified by immunofluorescence analysis of paraffin sections. In addition, interaction of StSN2 and StGAPC1 was confirmed by yeast two-hybrid, coimmunoprecipitation and split luciferase complementation assays. Overexpression of StGAPC1 depressed sprout growth, which is similar to the function of StSN2, and StSN2- and StGAPC1-overexpressing lines showed decreased glucose, fructose and galactose content. The interaction of StSN2 and StGAPC1 enhanced StGAPC1 activity and decreased its oxidative modification to inhibit sprout growth. Our results suggest that StSN2 plays a regulatory role in tuber sprout growth through interaction with StGAPC1.

Abstract
Lysine acetylation (LysAc) is a conserved and important post-translational modification (PTM) that plays a key role in plant physiological and metabolic processes. Based on advances in Lys-acetylated protein immunoenrichment and mass-spectrometric technology, LysAc proteomics studies have been performed in many species. Such studies have made substantial contributions to our understanding of plant LysAc, revealing that Lys-acetylated histones and nonhistones are involved in a broad spectrum of plant cellular processes. Here, we present an extensive overview of recent research on plant Lys-acetylproteomes. We provide in-depth insights into the characteristics of plant LysAc modifications and the mechanisms by which LysAc participates in cellular processes and regulates metabolism and physiology during plant growth and development. First, we summarize the characteristics of LysAc, including the properties of Lys-acetylated sites, the motifs that flank Lys-acetylated lysines, and the dynamic alterations in LysAc among different tissues and developmental stages. We also outline a map of Lys-acetylated proteins in the Calvin-Benson cycle and central carbon metabolism-related pathways. We then introduce some examples of the regulation of plant growth, development, and biotic and abiotic stress responses by LysAc. We discuss the interaction between LysAc and Nα-terminal acetylation and the crosstalk between LysAc and other PTMs, including phosphorylation and succinylation. Finally, we propose recommendations for future studies in the field. We conclude that LysAc of proteins plays an important role in the regulation of the plant life cycle.

Abstract
Lysine-ε-acetylation (Kac) is a post-translational modification (PTM) that is critical for metabolic regulation and cell signaling in mammals. However, its prevalence and importance in plants remain to be determined. Employing high-resolution tandem mass spectrometry, we analyzed protein lysine acetylation in five representative Arabidopsis organs with 2 ~ 3 biological replicates per organ. A total of 2887 Kac proteins and 5929 Kac sites were identified. This comprehensive catalog allows us to analyze proteome-wide features of lysine acetylation. We found that Kac proteins tend to be more uniformly expressed in different organs, and the acetylation status exhibits little correlation with the gene expression level, indicating that acetylation is unlikely caused by stochastic processes. Kac preferentially targets evolutionarily conserved proteins and lysine residues, but only a small percentage of Kac proteins are orthologous between rat and Arabidopsis. A large portion of Kac proteins overlap with proteins modified by other PTMs including ubiquitination, SUMOylation and phosphorylation. Although acetylation, ubiquitination and SUMOylation all modify lysine residues, our analyses show that they rarely target the same sites. In addition, we found that "reader" proteins for acetylation and phosphorylation, i.e., bromodomain-containing proteins and GRF (General Regulatory Factor)/14-3-3 proteins, are intensively modified by the two PTMs, suggesting that they are main crosstalk nodes between acetylation and phosphorylation signaling. Analyses of GRF6/14-3-3λ reveal that the Kac level of GRF6 is decreased under alkaline stress, suggesting that acetylation represses plant alkaline response. Indeed, K56ac of GRF6 inhibits its binding to and subsequent activation of the plasma membrane H+-ATPase AHA2, leading to hypersensitivity to alkaline stress. These results provide valuable resources for protein acetylation studies in plants and reveal that protein acetylation suppresses phosphorylation output by acetylating GRF/14-3-3 proteins.

Abstract
There are more than 100 GDSL lipases in Arabidopsis, but only a few members have been functionally investigated. Moreover, no reports have ever given a comprehensive analysis of GDSLs in stomatal biology. Here, we systematically investigated the expression patterns of 19 putative Guard-cell-enriched GDSL Lipases (GGLs) at various developmental stages and in response to hormone and abiotic stress treatments. Gene expression analyses showed that these GGLs had diverse expression patterns. Fifteen GGLs were highly expressed in guard cells, with seven preferentially in guard cells. Most GGLs were localized in endoplasmic reticulum, and some were also localized in lipid droplets and nucleus. Some closely homologous GGLs exhibited similar expression patterns at various tissues and in response to hormone and abiotic stresses, or similar subcellular localization, suggesting the correlation of expression pattern and biological function, and the functional redundancy of GGLs in plant development and environmental adaptations. Further phenotypic identification of ggl mutants revealed that GGL7, GGL14, GGL22, and GGL26 played unique and redundant roles in stomatal dynamics, stomatal density and morphology, and plant water relation. The present study provides unique resources for functional insights into these GGLs to control stomatal dynamics and development, plant growth, and adaptation to the environment.

Yan Y, Wang P, Lu Y, Bai Y, Wei Y, Liu G, Shi H. MeRAV5 promotes drought stress resistance in cassava by modulating hydrogen peroxide and lignin accumulation. THE PLANT JOURNAL : FOR CELL AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2021; 107:847-860. [PMID: 34022096 DOI: 10.1111/tpj.15350] [Citation(s) in RCA: 29] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/03/2021] [Revised: 05/14/2021] [Accepted: 05/17/2021] [Indexed: 05/20/2023]
Abstract
Cassava, an important food and energy crop, is relatively more resistant to drought stress than other crops. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this resistance remains elusive. Herein, we report that silencing a drought stress-responsive transcription factor MeRAV5 significantly reduced drought stress resistance, with higher levels of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) and less lignin during drought stress. Yeast two-hybrid, pull down and bimolecular fluorescence complementation (BiFC) showed that MeRAV5 physically interacted with peroxidase (MePOD) and lignin-related cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase 15 (MeCAD15) in vitro and in vivo. MeRAV5 promoted the activities of both MePOD and MeCAD15 to affect H2 O2 and endogenous lignin accumulation respectively, which are important in drought stress resistance in cassava. When either MeCAD15 or MeRAV5 was silenced, or both were co-silenced, cassava showed lower lignin content and drought-sensitive phenotype, whereas exogenous lignin alkali treatment increased drought stress resistance and alleviated the drought-sensitive phenotype of these silenced cassava plants. This study documents that the modulation of H2 O2 and lignin by MeRAV5 is essential for drought stress resistance in cassava.

PbSRT1 and PbSRT2 regulate pear growth and ripening yet displaying a species-specific regulation in comparison to other Rosaceae spp. PLANT SCIENCE : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2021; 308:110925. [PMID: 34034873 DOI: 10.1016/j.plantsci.2021.110925] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2021] [Revised: 03/15/2021] [Accepted: 04/24/2021] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
Epigenetic regulation is crucial to ensure a coordinated control of the different events that occur during fruit development and ripening. Sirtuins are NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases involved in the regulation of gene expression of many biological processes. However, their implications in the Rosaceae family remains unexplored. Accordingly, in this work, we demonstrated the phylogenetic divergence of both sirtuins among Rosaceae species. We then characterized the expression pattern of both SRT1 and SRT2 in selected pome and stone fruit species. Both SRT1 and SRT2 significantly changed during the fruit development and ripening of apple, nectarine and pear fruit, displaying a different expression profile. Such differences could explain in part their different ripening behaviour. To further unravel the role of sirtuins on the fruit development and ripening processes, a deeper analysis was performed using pear as a fruit model. In pear, PbSRT1 gene expression levels were negatively correlated with specific hormones (i.e. abscisic acid, indole-3-acetic acid, gibberellin A1 and zeatin) during the first phases of fruit development. PbSRT2 seemed to directly mediate pear ripening in an ethylene-independent manner. This hypothesis was further reinforced by treating the fruit with the ethylene inhibitor 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP). Instead, enhanced PbSRT2 along pear growth/ripening positively correlated with the accumulation of major sugars (R2 > 0.94), reinforcing the idea that sugar metabolism may be a target of epigenetic modifications during fruit ripening. Overall, the results from this study point out, for the first time, the importance that sirtuins have in the regulation of fruit growth and ripening of pear fruit by likely regulating hormonal and sugar metabolism.

Abstract
Lysine acetylation (Kac) is well known to occur in histones for chromatin function and epigenetic regulation. In addition to histones, Kac is also detected in a large number of proteins with diverse biological functions. However, Kac function and regulatory mechanism for most proteins are unclear. In this work, we studied mutation effects of rice genes encoding cytoplasm-localized histone deacetylases (HDAC) on protein acetylome and found that the HDAC protein HDA714 was a major deacetylase of the rice non-histone proteins including many ribosomal proteins (r-proteins) and translation factors that were extensively acetylated. HDA714 loss-of-function mutations increased Kac levels but reduced abundance of r-proteins. In vitro and in vivo experiments showed that HDA714 interacted with r-proteins and reduced their Kac. Substitutions of lysine by arginine (depleting Kac) in several r-proteins enhance, while mutations of lysine to glutamine (mimicking Kac) decrease their stability in transient expression system. Ribo-seq analysis revealed that the hda714 mutations resulted in increased ribosome stalling frequency. Collectively, the results uncover Kac as a functional posttranslational modification of r-proteins which is controlled by histone deacetylases, extending the role of Kac in gene expression to protein translational regulation.
