Abstract
Phosphorus (P) plays a crucial role in facilitating plant adaptation to cadmium (Cd) stress. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying P-mediated responses to Cd stress in roots remain elusive. This study investigates the effects of P on the growth, physiology, transcriptome, and metabolome of Salix caprea under Cd stress. The results indicate that Cd significantly inhibits plant growth, while sufficient P alleviates this inhibition. Under Cd exposure, P sufficiency resulted in increased Cd accumulation in roots, along with reduced oxidative stress levels (superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide contents were reduced by 16.8% and 30.1%, respectively). This phenomenon can be attributed to the enhanced activities of antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT), as well as increased levels of antioxidants including ascorbic acid (AsA) and flavonoids under sufficient P conditions. A total of 4208 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 552 differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs) were identified in the transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses, with 2596 DEGs and 113 DAMs identified among treatments with different P levels under Cd stress, respectively. Further combined analyses reveal the potential roles of several pathways in P-mediated Cd detoxification, including flavonoid biosynthesis, ascorbate biosynthesis, and plant hormone signal transduction pathways. Notably, sufficient P upregulates the expression of genes including HMA, ZIP, NRAMP and CAX, all predicted to localize to the cell membrane. This may elucidate the heightened Cd accumulation under sufficient P conditions. These findings provide insights into the roles of P in enhancing plant resistance to Cd stress and improving of phytoremediation.

Podzimek T, Přerovská T, Šantrůček J, Kovaľ T, Dohnálek J, Matoušek J, Lipovová P. N-glycosylation of tomato nuclease TBN1 produced in N. benthamiana and its effect on the enzyme activity. PLANT SCIENCE : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF EXPERIMENTAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2018; 276:152-161. [PMID: 30348313 DOI: 10.1016/j.plantsci.2018.08.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/10/2018] [Revised: 08/21/2018] [Accepted: 08/22/2018] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
A unique analysis of an enzyme activity versus structure modification of the tomato nuclease R-TBN1 is presented. R-TBN1, the non-specific nuclease belonging to the S1-P1 nuclease family, was recombinantly produced in N. benthamiana. The native structure is posttranslationally modified by N-glycosylation at three sites. In this work, it was found that this nuclease is modified by high-mannose type N-glycosylation with a certain degree of macro- and microheterogeneity. To monitor the role of N-glycosylation in its activity, hypo- and hyperglycosylated nuclease mutants, R-TBN1 digested by α-mannosidase, and R-TBN1 deglycosylated by PNGase F were prepared. Deglycosylated R-TBN1 and mutant N94D/N112D were virtually inactive. Compared to R-TBN1 wt, both N94D and N112D mutants showed about 60% and 10% of the activity, respectively, while the N186D, D36S, and D36S/E104 N mutants were equally or even more active than R-TBN1 wt. The partial demannosylation of R-TBN1 did not affect the nuclease activity; moreover, a little shift in substrate specificity was observed. The results show two facts: 1) which sites must be occupied by a glycan for the proper folding and stability and 2) how N. benthamiana glycosylates the foreign nuclease. At the same time, the modifications can be interesting in designing the nuclease activity or specificity through its glycosylation.

Structural and Catalytic Properties of S1 Nuclease from Aspergillus oryzae Responsible for Substrate Recognition, Cleavage, Non-Specificity, and Inhibition. PLoS One 2016; 11:e0168832. [PMID: 28036383 PMCID: PMC5201275 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0168832] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2016] [Accepted: 12/07/2016] [Indexed: 01/08/2023] Open
Abstract
The single-strand-specific S1 nuclease from Aspergillus oryzae is an archetypal enzyme of the S1-P1 family of nucleases with a widespread use for biochemical analyses of nucleic acids. We present the first X-ray structure of this nuclease along with a thorough analysis of the reaction and inhibition mechanisms and of its properties responsible for identification and binding of ligands. Seven structures of S1 nuclease, six of which are complexes with products and inhibitors, and characterization of catalytic properties of a wild type and mutants reveal unknown attributes of the S1-P1 family. The active site can bind phosphate, nucleosides, and nucleotides in several distinguished ways. The nucleoside binding site accepts bases in two binding modes-shallow and deep. It can also undergo remodeling and so adapt to different ligands. The amino acid residue Asp65 is critical for activity while Asn154 secures interaction with the sugar moiety, and Lys68 is involved in interactions with the phosphate and sugar moieties of ligands. An additional nucleobase binding site was identified on the surface, which explains the absence of the Tyr site known from P1 nuclease. For the first time ternary complexes with ligands enable modeling of ssDNA binding in the active site cleft. Interpretation of the results in the context of the whole S1-P1 nuclease family significantly broadens our knowledge regarding ligand interaction modes and the strategies of adjustment of the enzyme surface and binding sites to achieve particular specificity.
