Abstract
Plants have a family of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) inhibitors called interactors/inhibitors of CDK (ICKs) or Kip-related proteins (KRPs). ICK proteins have important functions in cell proliferation, endoreduplication, plant growth, and reproductive development, and their functions depend on the protein levels. However, understanding of how ICK protein levels are regulated is very limited. We fused Arabidopsis ICK sequences to green fluorescent protein (GFP) and determined their effects on the fusion proteins in plants, yeast, and Escherichia coli. The N-terminal regions of ICKs drastically reduced GFP fusion protein levels in Arabidopsis plants. A number of short sequences of 10-20 residues were found to decrease GFP fusion protein levels when fused at the N-terminus or C-terminus. Three of the four short sequences from ICK3 showed a similar function in yeast. Intriguingly, three short sequences from ICK1 and ICK3 caused the degradation of the fusion proteins in E. coli. In addition, computational analyses showed that ICK proteins were mostly disordered and unstructured except for the conserved C-terminal region, suggesting that ICKs are intrinsically disordered proteins. This study has identified a number of short protein-destabilizing sequences, and evidence suggests that some of them may cause protein degradation through structural disorder and instability.

FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1096467.

Abstract
Kip-related proteins (KRPs), as inhibitory proteins of cyclin-dependent kinases, are involved in the growth and development of plants by regulating the activity of the CYC-CDK complex to control cell cycle progression. The KRP gene family has been identified in several plants, and several KRP proteins from Arabidopsis thaliana have been functionally characterized. However, there is little research on KRP genes in soybean, which is an economically important crop. In this study, we identified nine GmKRP genes in the Glycine max genome using HMM modeling and BLASTP searches. Protein subcellular localization and conserved motif analysis showed soybean KRP proteins located in the nucleus, and the C-terminal protein sequence was highly conserved. By investigating the expression patterns in various tissues, we found that all GmKRPs exhibited transcript abundance, while several showed tissue-specific expression patterns. By analyzing the promoter region, we found that light, low temperature, an anaerobic environment, and hormones-related cis-elements were abundant. In addition, we performed a co-expression analysis of the GmKRP gene family, followed by Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) set enrichment analysis. The co-expressing genes were mainly involved in RNA synthesis and modification and energy metabolism. Furthermore, the GmKRP2a gene, a member of the soybean KRP family, was cloned for further functional analysis. GmKRP2a is located in the nucleus and participates in root development by regulating cell cycle progression. RNA-seq results indicated that GmKRP2a is involved in cell cycle regulation through ribosome regulation, cell expansion, hormone response, stress response, and plant pathogen response pathways. To our knowledge, this is the first study to identify and characterize the KRP gene family in soybean.

Arabidopsis Ubiquitin-Conjugating Enzymes UBC4, UBC5, and UBC6 Have Major Functions in Sugar Metabolism and Leaf Senescence. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911143. [PMID: 36232444 PMCID: PMC9569852 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231911143] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
The ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (E2) is required for protein ubiquitination. Arabidopsis has 37 E2s grouped into 14 subfamilies and the functions for many of them are unknown. We utilized genetic and biochemical methods to study the roles of Arabidopsis UBC4, UBC5, and UBC6 of the E2 subfamily IV. The Arabidopsis ubc4/5/6 triple mutant plants had higher levels of glucose, sucrose, and starch than the control plants, as well as a higher protein level of a key gluconeogenic enzyme, cytosolic fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase 1 (cyFBP). In an in vitro assay, the proteasome inhibitor MG132 inhibited the degradation of recombinant cyFBP whereas ATP promoted cyFBP degradation. In the quadruple mutant ubc4/5/6 cyfbp, the sugar levels returned to normal, suggesting that the increased sugar levels in the ubc4/5/6 mutant were due to an increased cyFBPase level. In addition, the ubc4/5/6 mutant plants showed early leaf senescence at late stages of plant development as well as accelerated leaf senescence using detached leaves. Further, the leaf senescence phenotype remained in the quadruple ubc4/5/6 cyfbp mutant. Our results suggest that UBC4/5/6 have two lines of important functions, in sugar metabolism through regulating the cyFBP protein level and in leaf senescence likely through a cyFBP-independent mechanism.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rose (Rosa chinensis) is a traditional famous flower with valuable ornamental characteristics. However, drought stress restricts its growth and development, leading to an abnormal phenotype. One of the main transcription factor (TF) protein groups in the plant kingdom are the APETALA2/ethylene-responsive factor (AP2/ERF) proteins and are potentially involved in the growth and stress responses of various plants. RESULTS Our investigation mainly focused on exploring the genome of rose and thereby we discovered 135 apparent AP2/ERF TFs. Phylogenic analyses revealed that RcAP2/ERF genes are categorized into DREB, Soloist, AP2, and ERF subfamilies, and are further classified these into 17 groups, with the same as Malus domestica and Arabidopsis thaliana. The analysis of the gene structure revealed that the introns ranged from 0 to 9 in number. Pattern examination demonstrated that the RcAP2/ERF predominantly consists of typical AP2 domains, of which the 2nd motif is the most ubiquitous. Distributions of cis-acting elements indicated that members of the AP2/ERF family are frequently involved in growth and development, phytohormone and stress response in rose species. Also, the distribution mapping of the rose chromosomes indicated that AP2/ERF class genes are dispersed among all seven chromosomes. Additionally, we isolated a novel DREB A2 subgroup gene and named it RcDREB2B. Subsequently, the RcDREB2B transcript accumulation was repressed under the mild and severe drought stress in the root samples of rose. RcDREB2B was targeted to the nucleus and exhibited transactivation in yeast cells. The overexpression of RcDREB2B was found to promote sensitivity to a higher salt concentration, ABA, and PEG at the germination and post-germination stages. Twelve putative osmotic and ABA-related genes were impaired in RcDREB2B-overexpressing plants. CONCLUSIONS The results provide comprehensive information regarding the gene structure, phylogenic, and distribution of the rose AP2/ERF family and bring insight into the complex transcriptional gene regulation of RcAP2/ERF. Findings in this study would also contribute to further understanding of the RcDREB2B gene in rose.

Int J Mol Sci 2020; 21:ijms21249437. [PMID: 33322385 PMCID: PMC7763875 DOI: 10.3390/ijms21249437] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/25/2020] [Revised: 11/27/2020] [Accepted: 12/08/2020] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
The auxin response factor (ARF) transcription factors are a key component in auxin signaling and play diverse functions in plant growth, development, and stress response. ARFs are regulated at the transcript level and posttranslationally by protein modifications. However, relatively little is known regarding the control of ARF protein levels. We expressed five different ARFs with an HA (hemagglutinin) tag and observed that their protein levels under the same promoter varied considerably. Interestingly, their protein levels were affected by several hormonal and environmental conditions, but not by the auxin treatment. ABA (abscisic acid) as well as 4 °C and salt treatments decreased the levels of HA-ARF5, HA-ARF6, and HA-ARF10, but not that of HA-ARF19, while 37 °C treatment increased the levels of the four HA-ARFs, suggesting that the ARF protein levels are regulated by multiple factors. Furthermore, MG132 inhibited the reduction of HA-ARF6 level by ABA and 4 °C treatments, suggesting that these treatments decrease HA-ARF6 level through 26S proteasome-mediated protein degradation. It was also found that ABA treatment drastically increased HA-ARF6 ubiquitination, without strongly affecting the ubiquitination profile of the total proteins. Together, these results reveal another layer of control on ARFs, which could serve to integrate multiple hormonal and environmental signals into the ARF-regulated gene expression.

Abstract
The essential nutrient copper is toxic in excess. Therefore, plants must tightly control copper uptake and distribution. Arabidopsis thaliana high-affinity copper transporters (COPTs) mediate copper uptake, partitioning, and redistribution. Here we show that COPT1 localizes to the plasma membrane and endoplasmic reticulum in stably transgenic plants expressing a COPT1-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion protein, and the fusion protein is rapidly degraded upon plant exposure to excess copper. MG132 treatment largely abolished copper-induced degradation of COPT1, implying a link between the proteasome and COPT1 activity in modulating copper uptake. Co-immunoprecipitation analyses revealed that COPT1 cannot be ubiquitinated in the presence of excess copper and MG132. Through site-directed mutagenesis, we identified Lys159 in the C-terminal cytoplasmic tail of COPT1 as critical for copper acquisition, but not for copper-mediated down-regulation of COPT1, in plants. Furthermore, pharmacological analysis showed that treatment with a vesicle trafficking inhibitor or a V-ATPase inhibitor does not alter the subcellular dynamics of COPT1-GFP, consistent with the absence of a connection between the endosomal recycling/vacuolar system and COPT1 degradation. Together, our data suggest that proteasomal degradation rather than vacuolar proteolysis is important for the regulation of copper transport to maintain copper homeostasis in plants.

Arabidopsis ICK/KRP cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors function to ensure the formation of one megaspore mother cell and one functional megaspore per ovule. PLoS Genet 2018.

Abstract
In most plants, the female germline starts with the differentiation of one megaspore mother cell (MMC) in each ovule that produces four megaspores through meiosis, one of which survives to become the functional megaspore (FM). The FM further develops into an embryo sac. Little is known regarding the control of MMC formation to one per ovule and the selective survival of the FM. The ICK/KRPs (interactor/inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK)/Kip-related proteins) are plant CDK inhibitors and cell cycle regulators. Here we report that in the ovules of Arabidopsis mutant with all seven ICK/KRP genes inactivated, supernumerary MMCs, FMs and embryo sacs were formed and the two embryo sacs could be fertilized to form two embryos with separate endosperm compartments. Twin seedlings were observed in about 2% seeds. Further, in the mutant ovules the number and position of surviving megaspores from one MMC were variable, indicating that the positional signal for determining the survival of megaspore was affected. Strikingly, ICK4 fusion protein with yellow fluorescence protein was strongly present in the degenerative megaspores but absent in the FM, suggesting an important role of ICKs in the degeneration of non-functional megaspores. The absence of or much weaker phenotypes in lower orders of mutants and complementation of the septuple mutant by ICK4 or ICK7 indicate that multiple ICK/KRPs function redundantly in restricting the formation of more than one MMC and in the selective survival of FM, which are critical to ensure the development of one embryo sac and one embryo per ovule. In most plants, the female germline starts with the differentiation of one megaspore mother cell (MMC) in each ovule that produces multiple megaspores through meiosis. One of the megaspores in a fixed position survives to become the functional megaspore (FM) while the other megaspores undergo degeneration. The FM further develops into an embryo sac. We have been working on the functions and regulation of a family of plant cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors called ICKs or KRPs. We observed that in the ovules of Arabidopsis mutant with all seven ICK/KRP genes inactivated, multiple MMCs, FMs and embryo sacs were formed, and the embryo sacs could be fertilized to produce two embryos with separate endosperm compartments. Further, in mutant ovules the number and position of surviving megaspores from one MMC were variable and ICK4-YFP (yellow fluorescence protein) fusion protein was strongly expressed in the degenerative megaspores but absent in the FM. Those findings together with other results in our study indicate that multiple ICK/KRPs function redundantly in controlling the formation of one MMC per ovule and also in the degeneration of non-functional megaspores, which are critical for the subsequent development of one embryo sac per ovule and one embryo per seed.

Abstract
The family of maize Kip-related proteins (KRPs) has been studied and a nomenclature based on the relationship to rice KRP genes is proposed. Expression studies of KRP genes indicate that all are expressed at 24 h of seed germination but expression is differential in the different tissues of maize plantlets. Recombinant KRP1;1 and KRP4;2 proteins, members of different KRP classes, were used to study association to and inhibitory activity on different maize cyclin D (CycD)-cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) complexes. Kinase activity in CycD2;2-CDK, CycD4;2-CDK, and CycD5;3-CDK complexes was inhibited by both KRPs; however, only KRP1;1 inhibited activity in the CycD6;1-CDK complex, not KRP4;2. Whereas KRP1;1 associated with either CycD2;2 or CycD6;1, and to cyclin-dependent kinase A (CDKA) recombinant proteins, forming ternary complexes, KRP4;2 bound CDKA and CycD2;2 but did not bind CycD6;1, establishing a differential association capacity. All CycD-CDK complexes included here phosphorylated both the retinoblastoma-related (RBR) protein and the two KRPs; interestingly, while KRP4;2 phosphorylated by the CycD2;2-CDK complex increased its inhibitory capacity, when phosphorylated by the CycD6;1-CDK complex the inhibitory capacity was reduced or eliminated. Evidence suggests that the phosphorylated residues in KRP4;2 may be different for every kinase, and this would influence its performance as a cyclin-CDK inhibitor.
