Bulychev AA, Strelets TS. Oscillations of chlorophyll fluorescence after plasma membrane excitation in Chara originate from nonuniform composition of signaling metabolites in the streaming cytoplasm. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. BIOENERGETICS 2024; 1865:149019. [PMID: 37924923 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbabio.2023.149019] [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: 09/08/2023] [Revised: 10/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/26/2023] [Indexed: 11/06/2023]
Abstract
Excitable cells of higher plants and characean algae respond to stressful stimuli by generating action potentials (AP) whose regulatory influence on chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence and photosynthesis extends over tens of minutes. Unlike plant leaves where the efficiency of photosystem II reaction (YII) undergoes a separate reversible depression after an individual AP, characean algae exhibit long-lasting oscillations of YII after firing AP, provided that Chl fluorescence is measured on microscopic cell regions. Internodal cells of charophytes feature an extremely fast cytoplasmic streaming that stops immediately during the spike and recovers within ~10 min after AP. In this study a possibility was examined that multiple oscillations of YII and Chl fluorescence parameters (F', Fm') result from the combined influence of metabolic rearrangements in chloroplasts and the cyclosis cessation-recovery cycle induced by the Ca2+ influx during AP. It is shown that the AP-induced Fm' and YII oscillations disappear when the fluidic communications between the analyzed area (AOI) and surrounding cell regions are restricted or eliminated. The microfluidic signaling was manipulated in two ways: by narrowing the illuminated cell area and by arresting the cytoplasmic streaming with cytochalasin D (CD). The inhibition of Fm' and YII oscillations was not caused by the loss of cell excitability, since CD-treated cells retained the capacity of AP generation. The mechanism of AP-induced oscillations of YII and Chl fluorescence seems to involve the lateral microfluidic transport of signaling substances in combination with the distribution pattern of these substances that was enhanced during the period of streaming cessation.

PLANT CELL REPORTS 2023:10.1007/s00299-023-03029-2. [PMID: 37179518 DOI: 10.1007/s00299-023-03029-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2023] [Accepted: 05/04/2023] [Indexed: 05/15/2023]
Abstract
KEY MESSAGE A new interaction was found between PMA1 and GRF4. H2S promotes the interaction through persulfidated Cys446 of PMA1. H2S activates PMA1 to maintain K+/Na+ homeostasis through persulfidation under salt stress. Plasma membrane H+-ATPase (PMA) is a transmembrane transporter responsible for pumping protons, and its contribution to salt resistance is indispensable in plants. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a small signaling gas molecule, plays the important roles in facilitating adaptation of plants to salt stress. However, how H2S regulates PMA activity remains largely unclear. Here, we show a possible original mechanism for H2S to regulate PMA activity. PMA1, a predominant member in the PMA family of Arabidopsis, has a non-conservative persulfidated cysteine (Cys) residue (Cys446), which is exposed on the surface of PMA1 and located in cation transporter/ATPase domain. A new interaction of PMA1 and GENERAL REGULATORY FACTOR 4 (GRF4, belongs to the 14-3-3 protein family) was found by chemical crosslinking coupled with mass spectrometry (CXMS) in vivo. H2S-mediated persulfidation promoted the binding of PMA1 to GRF4. Further studies showed that H2S enhanced instantaneous H+ efflux and maintained K+/Na+ homeostasis under salt stress. In light of these findings, we suggest that H2S promotes the binding of PMA1 to GRF4 through persulfidation, and then activating PMA, thus improving the salt tolerance of Arabidopsis.

Abstract
Stomata are pores in the leaf epidermis of plants and their opening and closing regulate gas exchange and water transpiration. Stomatal movements play key roles in both plant growth and stress responses. In recent years, small molecules regulating stomatal movements have been used as a powerful tool in mechanistic studies, as well as key players for agricultural applications. Therefore, the development of new molecules regulating stomatal movement and the elucidation of their mechanisms have attracted much attention. We herein describe the discovery of 2,6-dihalopurines, AUs, as a new stomatal opening inhibitor, and their mechanistic study. Based on biological assays, AUs may involve in the pathway related with plasma membrane H+-ATPase phosphorylation. In addition, we identified leucine-rich repeat extensin proteins (LRXs), LRX3, LRX4 and LRX5 as well as RALF, as target protein candidates of AUs by affinity based pull down assay and molecular dynamics simulation. The mechanism of stomatal movement related with the LRXs-RALF is an unexplored pathway, and therefore further studies may lead to the discovery of new signaling pathways and regulatory factors in the stomatal movement.
