Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2084. [PMID: 38396759 PMCID: PMC10888960 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25042084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 01/26/2024] [Accepted: 01/30/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Caragana, a xerophytic shrub genus widely distributed in northern China, exhibits distinctive geographical substitution patterns and ecological adaptation diversity. This study employed transcriptome sequencing technology to investigate 12 Caragana species, aiming to explore genic-SSR variations in the Caragana transcriptome and identify their role as a driving force for environmental adaptation within the genus. A total of 3666 polymorphic genic-SSRs were identified across different species. The impact of these variations on the expression of related genes was analyzed, revealing a significant linear correlation (p < 0.05) between the length variation of 264 polymorphic genic-SSRs and the expression of associated genes. Additionally, 2424 polymorphic genic-SSRs were located in differentially expressed genes among Caragana species. Through weighted gene co-expression network analysis, the expressions of these genes were correlated with 19 climatic factors and 16 plant functional traits in various habitats. This approach facilitated the identification of biological processes associated with habitat adaptations in the studied Caragana species. Fifty-five core genes related to functional traits and climatic factors were identified, including various transcription factors such as MYB, TCP, ARF, and structural proteins like HSP90, elongation factor TS, and HECT. The roles of these genes in the ecological adaptation diversity of Caragana were discussed. Our study identified specific genomic components and genes in Caragana plants responsive to heterogeneous habitats. The results contribute to advancements in the molecular understanding of their ecological adaptation, lay a foundation for the conservation and development of Caragana germplasm resources, and provide a scientific basis for plant adaptation to global climate change.

Abstract
The introduction of plastic sectors has resulted in the presence of microplastics (MPs) in water systems, which has become a global issue that has attracted scientific and community awareness. MPs can be detected in a variety of sources such as beauty products, manufacturing effluent, or fishing activities. This study examined the repercussions posed by MPs' prevalence on land and marine environments and human health issues. Henceforth, remediation technologies must be introduced to shift out MPs from the water supplies in order to sustain the environmental quality for future generations, the benefits and drawbacks of the technology applied. This study also portrays difficulties encountered in MP research as the hurdles must be mastered in order to properly comprehend the MPs. The cooperation between nations is the most critical aspect in fully tackling MP issues as it can be easily carried by wind or water and its damage can be larger than predicted.

Abstract
E3 ubiquitin ligase (E3s) plays an important role in ubiquitin proteasome pathway, proteins containing homologous E6-AP carboxyl terminus (HECT) domains. However, the role of HECT E3 ubiquitin ligase in mollusk was rarely explored. In this study, we performed a genome-wide analysis of the HECT domain-containing gene in Ruditapes philippinarum to identify and predict the structural and functional characterization of HECT genes in response to abiotic and biotic stress. A total of sixteen members of HECT gene family were identified and analyzed for the gene structure, phylogenetic relation, three-dimensional structure, protein interaction network, and expression patterns. Experimental results demonstrated that Rph.HUWE1, Rph.HECTD1, Rph.Ubr5 were significantly up-regulated in response to heat stress and bacterial challenge. Taken together, our data provide insights into the potential function of HECT E3 ligase in heat stress and Vibrio anguillarum infection.

Genome-wide identification, evolution analysis of LysM gene family members and their expression analysis in response to biotic and abiotic stresses in banana (Musa L.). Gene X 2022; 845:146849. [PMID: 36044944 DOI: 10.1016/j.gene.2022.146849] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2022] [Revised: 08/24/2022] [Accepted: 08/25/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
LysM (Lysin motif), in response to pathogenic molecular stresses, is a crucial signal recognition gene. To understand the molecular characteristics of banana LysM gene family members, we used a series of bioinformatics methods. Based on the genomic databases of Musa acuminata, Musa balbisiana and Musa itinerans, a total of 53 genes and 55 proteins were identified, with 21 genes and 23 proteins in the M.acuminata, 16 genes and 16 proteins in each of M.balbisiana and M.itinerans, respectively. According to the conserved structural domains, LysM can be divided into five classes, namely LysM&MltD, LYK, LYP, LysMn, and LysMe. The LysM gene was relatively highly conserved in the evolution of the three genomes of banana, and some differences occurred. Expression analysis revealed that MaLysM4-5 was relatively highly expressed under high-temperature stress, low-temperature stress and pathogen infection; at the same time, about one-third of the members were down-regulated under low-temperature stress and high-temperature stress, while the expression of MaLysM10-1 and MaLysM4-5 were up-regulated. After the banana wilt fungus FocTR4 infected the banana roots, MaLysM1 was down-regulated and MaLysM11-1 was up-regulated. In conclusion, our study suggests that MaLysMs may be necessary in the response to high- and low-temperature stresses, as well as the banana wilt fungus infestation. Overall, this paper found that LysM genes may be involved in biotic and abiotic stresses in banana, and provided helpful information about LysM's evolution, expression and properties, which will provide theoretical references for further studies on the functions of LysM genes and resistance breeding in the future.

HECT ubiquitin ligases as accessory proteins of the plant proteasome. Essays Biochem 2022; 66:135-145. [PMID: 35635104 PMCID: PMC9400063 DOI: 10.1042/ebc20210064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/26/2022] [Revised: 04/21/2022] [Accepted: 04/29/2022] [Indexed: 12/31/2022]
Abstract
The proteasome plays vital roles in eukaryotic cells by orchestrating the regulated degradation of large repertoires of substrates involved in numerous biological processes. Proteasome dysfunction is associated with a wide variety of human pathologies and in plants severely affects growth, development and responses to stress. The activity of E3 ubiquitin ligases marks proteins fated for degradation with chains of the post-translational modifier, ubiquitin. Proteasomal processing of ubiquitinated substrates involves ubiquitin chain recognition, deubiquitination, ATP-mediated unfolding and translocation, and proteolytic digestion. This complex series of steps is made possible not only by the many specialised subunits of the 1.5 MDa proteasome complex but also by a range of accessory proteins that are recruited to the proteasome. A surprising class of accessory proteins are members of the HECT-type family of ubiquitin ligases that utilise a unique mechanism for post-translational attachment of ubiquitin to their substrates. So why do proteasomes that already contain all the necessary machinery to recognise ubiquitinated substrates, harbour HECT ligase activity? It is now clear that some ubiquitin ligases physically relay their substrates to proteasome-associated HECT ligases, which prevent substrate stalling at the proteasome. Moreover, HECT ligases ubiquitinate proteasome subunits, thereby modifying the proteasome's ability to recognise substrates. They may therefore enable proteasomes to be both non-specific and extraordinarily selective in a complex substrate environment. Understanding the relationship between the proteasome and accessory HECT ligases will reveal how the proteasome controls so many diverse plant developmental and stress responses.
