Mitochondrial Peroxiredoxin-IIF (PRXIIF) Activity and Function during Seed Aging. Antioxidants (Basel) 2022; 11:antiox11071226. [PMID: 35883717 PMCID: PMC9311518 DOI: 10.3390/antiox11071226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 06/15/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Mitochondria play a major role in energy metabolism, particularly in cell respiration, cellular metabolism, and signal transduction, and are also involved in other processes, such as cell signaling, cell cycle control, cell growth, differentiation and apoptosis. Programmed cell death is associated with the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a concomitant decrease in antioxidant capacity, which, in turn, determines the aging of living organisms and organs and thus also seeds. During the aging process, cell redox homeostasis is disrupted, and these changes decrease the viability of stored seeds. Mitochondrial peroxiredoxin-IIF (PRXIIF), a thiol peroxidase, has a significant role in protecting the cell and sensing oxidative stress that occurs during the disturbance of redox homeostasis. Thioredoxins (TRXs), which function as redox transmitters and switch protein function in mitochondria, can regulate respiratory metabolism. TRXs serve as electron donors to PRXIIF, as shown in Arabidopsis. In contrast, sulfiredoxin (SRX) can regenerate mitochondrial PRXIIF once hyperoxidized to sulfinic acid. To protect against oxidative stress, another type of thiol peroxidases, glutathione peroxidase-like protein (GPXL), is important and receives electrons from the TRX system. They remove peroxides produced in the mitochondrial matrix. However, the TRX/PRX and TRX/GPXL systems are not well understood in mitochondria. Knowledge of both systems is important because these systems play an important role in stress sensing, response and acclimation, including redox imbalance and generation of ROS and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). The TRX/PRX and TRX/GPXL systems are important for maintaining cellular ROS homeostasis and maintaining redox homeostasis under stress conditions. This minireview focuses on the functions of PRXIIF discovered in plant cells approximately 20 years ago and addresses the question of how PRXIIF affects seed viability maintenance and aging. Increasing evidence suggests that the mitochondrial PRXIIF plays a major role in metabolic processes in seeds, which was not previously known.

Abstract
Calcium (Ca2+) and redox signaling enable cells to quickly adapt to changing environments. The signaling protein calredoxin (CRX) from the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a chloroplast-resident thioredoxin having Ca2+-dependent activity and harboring a unique combination of an EF-hand domain connected to a typical thioredoxin-fold. Using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), FRET, and NMR techniques, we found that Ca2+-binding not only induces a conformational change in the EF-hand domain, but also in the thioredoxin domain, translating into the onset of thioredoxin redox activity. Functional analyses of CRX with genetically altered EF-hands revealed that EF-hand 4 is important for mediating the communication between the two domains. Moreover, we crystallized a variant (C174S) of the CRX target protein peroxiredoxin 1 (PRX1) at 2.4 Å resolution, modeled the interaction complex of the two proteins, and analyzed it by cross-linking and MS analyses, revealing that the interaction interface is located close to the active sites of both proteins. Our findings shed light on the Ca2+ binding-induced changes in CRX structure in solution at the level of the overall protein and individual domains and residues.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (PRXs) are a group of antioxidant enzymes that are found in all organisms, including plants and green algae. The 2-Cys PRX from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (CrPRX1) is a chloroplast-localized protein that is critical for clearing reactive oxygen species in chloroplasts. CrPRX1 is reduced by thioredoxins or calredoxin (CrCRX), a recently identified calcium-dependent redox protein. The molecular interaction between PRXs and thioredoxin/CrCRX is functionally important, but discussion has been limited owing to a lack of structural information on CrPRX1, especially regarding its oligomeric state. In this study, high-speed atomic force microscopy (HS-AFM) images of CrPRX1 and an X-ray crystallographic analysis have enabled examination of the oligomeric state of CrPRX1. Diffraction data from a crystal of the Cys174Ser mutant of CrPRX1 indicate the existence of noncrystallographic fivefold symmetry. HS-AFM images of CrPRX1 further show that CrPRX1 particles form rings with pentagonal rotational symmetry. On the basis of these findings, the oligomeric state of CrPRX1 is discussed and it is concluded that this PRX exists in a ring-shaped decameric form comprising a pentamer of dimers.

Glutathionylation of Pea Chloroplast 2-Cys Prx and Mitochondrial Prx IIF Affects Their Structure and Peroxidase Activity and Sulfiredoxin Deglutathionylates Only the 2-Cys Prx.

Abstract
Together with thioredoxins (Trxs), plant peroxiredoxins (Prxs), and sulfiredoxins (Srxs) are involved in antioxidant defense and redox signaling, while their regulation by post-translational modifications (PTMs) is increasingly regarded as a key component for the transduction of the bioactivity of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. Among these PTMs, S-glutathionylation is considered a protective mechanism against overoxidation, it also modulates protein activity and allows signaling. This study explores the glutathionylation of recombinant chloroplastic 2-Cys Prx and mitochondrial Prx IIF from Pisum sativum. Glutathionylation of the decameric form of 2-Cys Prx produced a change in the elution volume after FPLC chromatography and converted it to its dimeric glutathionylated form, while Prx IIF in its reduced dimeric form was glutathionylated without changing its oligomeric state. Mass spectrometry demonstrated that oxidized glutathione (GSSG) can glutathionylate resolving cysteine (Cys174), but not the peroxidatic equivalent (Cys52), in 2-Cys Prx. In contrast, GSSG was able to glutathionylate both peroxidatic (Cys59) and resolving (Cys84) cysteine in Prx IIF. Glutathionylation was seen to be dependent on the GSH/GSSG ratio, although the exact effect on the 2-Cys Prx and Prx IIF proteins differed. However, the glutathionylation provoked a similar decrease in the peroxidase activity of both peroxiredoxins. Despite growing evidence of the importance of post-translational modifications, little is known about the enzymatic systems that specifically regulate the reversal of this modification. In the present work, sulfiredoxin from P. sativum was seen to be able to deglutathionylate pea 2-Cys Prx but not pea Prx IIF. Redox changes during plant development and the response to stress influence glutathionylation/deglutathionylation processes, which may represent an important event through the modulation of peroxiredoxin and sulfiredoxin proteins.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (Prxs) have emerged as important factors linking reactive oxygen species (ROS) metabolism to redox-dependent signaling events. Together with ROS, nitric oxide (NO) is a free radical product of the cell metabolism that is essential in the signal transduction. S-Nitrosylation is emerging as a fundamental protein modification for the transduction of NO bioactivity. Using recombinant pea mitochondrial PsPrxII F (PrxII F), the effect of S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) and sodium nitroprusside dehydrate (SNP), which are known to mediate protein S-nitrosylation processes, was studied. S-Nitrosylation of the PrxII F was demonstrated using the biotin switch method and LC ESI-QTOF tandem MS analysis. S-nitrosylated PrxII F decreased its peroxidase activity and acquired a new transnitrosylase activity, preventing the thermal aggregation of citrate synthase (CS). For the first time, we demonstrate the dual function for PrxII F as peroxidase and transnitrosylase. This switch was accompanied by a conformational change of the protein that could favor the protein-protein interaction CS-PrxII F. The observed in vivo S-nitrosylation of PrxII F could probably function as a protective mechanism under oxidative and nitrosative stress, such as occurs under salinity. We conclude that we are dealing with a novel regulatory mechanism for this protein by NO. BIOLOGICAL SIGNIFICANCE S-Nitrosylation is a post-translational modification that is increasingly viewed as fundamental for the signal transduction role of NO in plants. This study demonstrates that S-nitrosylation of the mitochondrial peroxiredoxin PrxII F induces a conformational change in the protein and provokes a reduction in its peroxidase activity, while acquiring a novel function as transnitrosylase. The implication of this mechanism will increase our understanding of the role of posttranslational modifications in the protein function in plants under stress situations such as salinity, in which NO could act as signaling molecule.

Abstract
Mitochondrial respiration provides the energy needed to drive metabolic and transport processes in cells. Mitochondria are a significant site of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in plant cells, and redox-system components obey fine regulation mechanisms that are essential in protecting the mitochondrial integrity. In addition to ROS, there are compelling indications that nitric oxide can be generated in this organelle by both reductive and oxidative pathways. ROS and reactive nitrogen species play a key role in signaling but they can also be deleterious via oxidation of macromolecules. The high production of ROS obligates mitochondria to be provided with a set of ROS scavenging mechanisms. The first line of mitochondrial antioxidants is composed of superoxide dismutase and the enzymes of the ascorbate-glutathione cycle, which are not only able to scavenge ROS but also to repair cell damage and possibly serve as redox sensors. The dithiol-disulfide exchanges form independent signaling nodes and act as antioxidant defense mechanisms as well as sensor proteins modulating redox signaling during development and stress adaptation. The presence of thioredoxin (Trx), peroxiredoxin (Prx) and sulfiredoxin (Srx) in the mitochondria has been recently reported. Cumulative results obtained from studies in salt stress models have demonstrated that these redox proteins play a significant role in the establishment of salt tolerance. The Trx/Prx/Srx system may be subjected to a fine regulated mechanism involving post-translational modifications, among which S-glutathionylation and S-nitrosylation seem to exhibit a critical role that is just beginning to be understood. This review summarizes our current knowledge in antioxidative systems in plant mitochondria, their interrelationships, mechanisms of compensation and some unresolved questions, with special focus on their response to abiotic stress.

Abstract
Together with reactive oxygen species, nitric oxide is an essential part of the signal transduction induced by stress conditions. In this work we study the pattern of S-nitrosylated proteins from mitochondria of pea plants subjected to 150mM NaCl for 5 and 14days. A differential pattern of target proteins was found during plant development and salt stress, with a minor number of S-nitrosylated proteins at 14 days specifically some key enzymes related to respiration and photorespiration. At this time of stress, only ATP synthase β subunit, peroxiredoxin and Hsp90 were S-nitrosylated and no changes in protein levels were observed, although the activity of PrxII F may be reduced by S-nitrosylation. The NADH/NAD(+) ratio was also high at 14days but not the NADPH/NADP(+). An enhancement in NO measured by fluorimetry and confocal microscopy was observed in leaves, being part of the NO localized in mitochondria. An increase in mitochondrial GSNOR activity was produced in response to short and long-term NaCl treatment, where a higher number of nitrated proteins were also observed. The results indicated that posttranslational modifications seem to modulate respiratory and photorespiratory pathways, as well as some antioxidant enzymes, through differential S-nitrosylation/denitrosylation in control conditions and under salt stress.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (Prx) are central elements of the antioxidant defense system and the dithiol-disulfide redox regulatory network of the plant and cyanobacterial cell. They employ a thiol-based catalytic mechanism to reduce H2O2, alkylhydroperoxide, and peroxinitrite. In plants and cyanobacteria, there exist 2-CysPrx, 1-CysPrx, PrxQ, and type II Prx. Higher plants typically contain at least one plastid 2-CysPrx, one nucleo-cytoplasmic 1-CysPrx, one chloroplast PrxQ, and one each of cytosolic, mitochondrial, and plastidic type II Prx. Cyanobacteria express variable sets of three or more Prxs. The catalytic cycle consists of three steps: (i) peroxidative reduction, (ii) resolving step, and (iii) regeneration using diverse electron donors such as thioredoxins, glutaredoxins, cyclophilins, glutathione, and ascorbic acid. Prx proteins undergo major conformational changes in dependence of their redox state. Thus, they not only modulate cellular reactive oxygen species- and reactive nitrogen species-dependent signaling, but depending on the Prx type they sense the redox state, transmit redox information to binding partners, and function as chaperone. They serve in context of photosynthesis and respiration, but also in metabolism and development of all tissues, for example, in nodules as well as during seed and fruit development. The article surveys the current literature and attempts a mostly comprehensive coverage of present day knowledge and concepts on Prx mechanism, regulation, and function and thus on the whole Prx systems in plants.

Abstract
Sulfiredoxin (Srx) couples the energy of ATP hydrolysis to the energetically unfavorable process of reducing the inactive sulfinic form of 2-cysteine peroxiredoxins (Prxs) to regenerate its active form. In plants, Srx as well as typical 2-cysteine Prx have been considered as enzymes with exclusive chloroplast localization. This work explores the subcellular localization of Srx in pea (Pisum sativum) and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana). Immunocytochemistry, analysis of protein extracts from isolated intact organelles, and cell-free posttranslational import assays demonstrated that plant Srx also localizes to the mitochondrion in addition to plastids. The dual localization was in line with the prediction of a signal peptide for dual targeting. Activity tests and microcalorimetric data proved the interaction between Srx and its mitochondrial targets Prx IIF and thioredoxin. Srx catalyzed the retroreduction of the inactive sulfinic form of atypical Prx IIF using thioredoxin as reducing agent. Arabidopsis Srx also reduced overoxidized human Prx V. These results suggest that plant Srx could play a crucial role in the regulation of Prx IIF activity by controlling the regeneration of its overoxidized form in mitochondria, which are sites of efficient reactive oxygen species production in plants.

Abstract
Protein-protein associations, i.e. formation of permanent or transient protein complexes, are essential for protein functionality and regulation within the cellular context. Peroxiredoxins (Prx) undergo major redox-dependent conformational changes and the dynamics are linked to functional switches. While a large number of investigations have addressed the principles and functions of Prx oligomerization, understanding of the diverse in vivo roles of this conserved redox-dependent feature of Prx is slowly emerging. The review summarizes studies on Prx oligomerization, its tight connection to the redox state, and the knowledge and hypotheses on its physiological function in the cell as peroxidase, chaperone, binding partner, enzyme activator and/or redox sensor.

Abstract
Peroxiredoxins (Prx) are ubiquitous thiol-dependent peroxidases capable of reducing a broad range of toxic peroxides and peroxinitrites. A cysteinyl residue of peroxiredoxins reacts with the peroxides as primary catalytic center and oxidizes to sulfenic acid. The regeneration of the reduced form of Prx is required as a next step to allow its entry into next catalytic cycle. Several proteins, such as thioredoxin, glutaredoxin, cyclophilin, among others, are known to facilitate the regeneration of the reduced (catalytically active) form of Prx in plants. Based on the cysteine residues conserved in the deduced amino acid sequence and their catalytic mechanisms, four groups of peroxiredoxins have been distinguished in plants, namely, 1-Cys Prx, 2-Cys Prx, Type II Prx and Prx Q. Peroxiredoxins are known to play an important role in combating the reactive oxygen species generated at the level of electron transport activities in the plant exposed to different types of biotic and abiotic stresses. In addition to their role in antioxidant defense mechanisms in plants, they also modulate redox signaling during development and adaptation. Besides these general properties, peroxiredoxins have been shown to protect DNA from damage in vitro and in vivo. They also regulate metabolism in thylakoids and mitochondria. The present review summarizes the most updated information on the structure and catalysis of Prx and their functional importance in plant metabolism.

Hexameric oligomerization of mitochondrial peroxiredoxin PrxIIF and formation of an ultrahigh affinity complex with its electron donor thioredoxin Trx-o.

Abstract
Mitochondria from plants, yeast, and animals each contain at least one peroxiredoxin (Prx) that is involved in peroxide detoxification and redox signalling. The supramolecular dynamics of atypical type II Prx targeted to the mitochondrion was addressed in pea. Microcalorimetric (ITC) titrations identified an extremely high-affinity binding between the mitochondrial PsPrxIIF and Trx-o with a K(D) of 126+/-14 pM. Binding was driven by a favourable enthalpy change (DeltaH= -60.6 kcal mol(-1)) which was counterbalanced by unfavourable entropy changes (TDeltaS= -47.1 kcal mol(-1)). This is consistent with the occurrence of large conformational changes during binding which was abolished upon site-directed mutaganesis of the catalytic C59S and C84S. The redox-dependent interaction was confirmed by gel filtration of mitochondrial extracts and co-immunoprecipitation from extracts. The heterocomplex of PsPrxIIF and Trx-o reduced peroxide substrates more efficiently than free PsPrxIIF suggesting that Trx-o serves as an efficient and specific electron donor to PsPrxIIF in vivo. Other Trx-s tested by ITC analysis failed to interact with PsPrxIIF indicating a specific recognition of PsPrxIIF by Trx-o. PsPrxIIF exists primarily as a dimer or a hexamer depending on the redox state. In addition to the well-characterized oligomerization of classical 2-Cys Prx the results also show that atypical Prx undergo large structural reorganization with implications for protein-protein interaction and function.

Abstract
Recent research has established redox-dependent thiol modification of proteins as a major regulatory layer superimposed on most cell functional categories in plants. Modern proteomics and forward as well as reverse genetics approaches have enabled the identification of a high number of novel targets of redox regulation. Redox-controlled processes range from metabolism to transport, transcription and translation. Gene activity regulation by transcription factors such as TGA, Athb-9 and RAP2 directly or indirectly is controlled by the redox state. Knowledge on putative redox sensors such as the peroxiredoxins, on redox transmitters including thioredoxins and glutaredoxins and biochemical mechanisms of their linkage to the metabolic redox environment has emerged as the framework of a functional redox regulatory network. Its basic principle is similar in eukaryotic cells and particularly complex in the photosynthesizing chloroplast. Methods and knowledge are now at hand to develop a quantitative understanding of redox signalling and the redox regulatory network in the eukaryotic cell.

Abstract
The pea peroxiredoxin homologue PsPrxII F of the Arabidopsis thaliana mitochondrial AtPrxII F was isolated as cDNA and genomic DNA, and characterized in respect to its biochemical and molecular properties. The deduced amino acid sequence contains an N-terminal targeting address for mitochondrial import. Mitochondrial location of PsPrxII F was confirmed by immunocytochemistry. The mature enzyme, without the transit peptide, has a molecular mass of 18.75 kDa, and, at positions 59 and 84, carries the two catalytic cysteinyl residues which are characteristic for this particular Prx subgroup. Activity of site-directed mutagenized C84S-variant lacking the so-called resolving Cys dropped to about 12% of WT Prx while C59S lost its peroxidatic activity completely. Likewise, WT PsPrxII F and C84S-variant but not C59S protected plasmid DNA against strand breakage in a mixed function oxidation assay. WT PrxII F and the variant proteins aggregated to high mass oligomers not yet described for type II Prx. Upon oxidation with hydrogen peroxide PsPrxII F focussed in a series of spots of distinct pI but similar molecular masses in two-dimensional gels indicating different oxidation states of the protein. Using this technique, partial oxidation was also detected in leaf extracts and isolated mitochondria. PsPrxII F mRNA and protein accumulated in cold and heavy metals treated pea plants suggesting a particular function under stress.

Abstract
With 8 to 10 members, the peroxiredoxin gene family of each higher plant with known genome sequence is larger than in other eukaryotes. Likewise, the complexity of reductive regenerants is very high, e.g. the chloroplast 2-Cys Prx is reduced by various thioredoxins, cyclophilin Cyp20-3, the drought induced CDSP32 and the NADPH-dependent reductant NTRC. In the light of the apparent versatility of the peroxiredoxin system in plants, its specific and important functions in antioxidant defence, photosynthesis and stress adaptation, the review attempts a survey of present day knowledge on plant peroxiredoxins, their biochemical features and transcript regulation, as well as their function in photosynthesis, development, stress response and pathogenesis. The emerging evidence for plant Prx function in cell signaling is summarized.
