Petal abscission is promoted by jasmonic acid-induced autophagy at Arabidopsis petal bases. Nat Commun 2024; 15:1098. [PMID: 38321030 PMCID: PMC10847506 DOI: 10.1038/s41467-024-45371-3] [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: 12/07/2022] [Accepted: 01/23/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024] Open
Abstract
In angiosperms, the transition from floral-organ maintenance to abscission determines reproductive success and seed dispersion. For petal abscission, cell-fate decisions specifically at the petal-cell base are more important than organ-level senescence or cell death in petals. However, how this transition is regulated remains unclear. Here, we identify a jasmonic acid (JA)-regulated chromatin-state switch at the base of Arabidopsis petals that directs local cell-fate determination via autophagy. During petal maintenance, co-repressors of JA signaling accumulate at the base of petals to block MYC activity, leading to lower levels of ROS. JA acts as an airborne signaling molecule transmitted from stamens to petals, accumulating primarily in petal bases to trigger chromatin remodeling. This allows MYC transcription factors to promote chromatin accessibility for downstream targets, including NAC DOMAIN-CONTAINING PROTEIN102 (ANAC102). ANAC102 accumulates specifically at the petal base prior to abscission and triggers ROS accumulation and cell death via AUTOPHAGY-RELATED GENEs induction. Developmentally induced autophagy at the petal base causes maturation, vacuolar delivery, and breakdown of autophagosomes for terminal cell differentiation. Dynamic changes in vesicles and cytoplasmic components in the vacuole occur in many plants, suggesting JA-NAC-mediated local cell-fate determination by autophagy may be conserved in angiosperms.

BMC PLANT BIOLOGY 2023; 23:248. [PMID: 37170202 PMCID: PMC10173674 DOI: 10.1186/s12870-023-04256-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/23/2022] [Accepted: 04/27/2023] [Indexed: 05/13/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Histone modification is an important epigenetic regulatory mechanism and essential for stress adaptation in plants. However, systematic analysis of histone modification genes (HMs) in Brassicaceae species is lacking, and their roles in response to abiotic stress have not yet been identified. RESULTS In this study, we identified 102 AtHMs, 280 BnaHMs, 251 BcHMs, 251 BjHMs, 144 BnHMs, 155 BoHMs, 137 BrHMs, 122 CrHMs, and 356 CsHMs in nine Brassicaceae species, respectively. Their chromosomal locations, protein/gene structures, phylogenetic trees, and syntenies were determined. Specific domains were identified in several Brassicaceae HMs, indicating an association with diverse functions. Syntenic analysis showed that the expansion of Brassicaceae HMs may be due to segmental and whole-genome duplications. Nine key BnaHMs in allotetraploid rapeseed may be responsible for ammonium, salt, boron, cadmium, nitrate, and potassium stress based on co-expression network analysis. According to weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA), 12 BnaHMs were associated with stress adaptation. Among the above genes, BnaPRMT11 simultaneously responded to four different stresses based on differential expression analysis, while BnaSDG46, BnaHDT10, and BnaHDA1 participated in five stresses. BnaSDG46 was also involved in four different stresses based on WGCNA, while BnaSDG10 and BnaJMJ58 were differentially expressed in response to six different stresses. In summary, six candidate genes for stress resistance (BnaPRMT11, BnaSDG46, BnaSDG10, BnaJMJ58, BnaHDT10, and BnaHDA1) were identified. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, these findings help clarify the biological roles of Brassicaceae HMs. The identified candidate genes provide an important reference for the potential development of stress-tolerant oilseed plants.

Jasmonates and Histone deacetylase 6 activate Arabidopsis genome-wide histone acetylation and methylation during the early acute stress response. BMC Biol 2022; 20:83. [PMID: 35399062 PMCID: PMC8996529 DOI: 10.1186/s12915-022-01273-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/24/2021] [Accepted: 03/07/2022] [Indexed: 11/28/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Jasmonates (JAs) mediate trade-off between responses to both biotic and abiotic stress and growth in plants. The Arabidopsis thaliana HISTONE DEACETYLASE 6 is part of the CORONATINE INSENSITIVE1 receptor complex, co-repressing the HDA6/COI1-dependent acetic acid-JA pathway that confers plant drought tolerance. The decrease in HDA6 binding to target DNA mirrors histone H4 acetylation (H4Ac) changes during JA-mediated drought response, and mutations in HDA6 also cause depletion in the constitutive repressive marker H3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3). However, the genome-wide effect of HDA6 on H4Ac and much of the impact of JAs on histone modifications and chromatin remodelling remain elusive. RESULTS We performed high-throughput ChIP-Seq on the HDA6 mutant, axe1-5, and wild-type plants with or without methyl jasmonate (MeJA) treatment to assess changes in active H4ac and repressive H3K27me3 histone markers. Transcriptional regulation was investigated in parallel by microarray analysis in the same conditions. MeJA- and HDA6-dependent histone modifications on genes for specialized metabolism; linolenic acid and phenylpropanoid pathways; and abiotic and biotic stress responses were identified. H4ac and H3K27me3 enrichment also differentially affects JAs and HDA6-mediated genome integrity and gene regulatory networks, substantiating the role of HDA6 interacting with specific families of transposable elements in planta and highlighting further specificity of action as well as novel targets of HDA6 in the context of JA signalling for abiotic and biotic stress responses. CONCLUSIONS The findings demonstrate functional overlap for MeJA and HDA6 in tuning plant developmental plasticity and response to stress at the histone modification level. MeJA and HDA6, nonetheless, maintain distinct activities on histone modifications to modulate genetic variability and to allow adaptation to environmental challenges.

Arabidopsis RPD3-like histone deacetylases form multiple complexes involved in stress response. J Genet Genomics 2021; 48:369-383. [PMID: 34144927 DOI: 10.1016/j.jgg.2021.04.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/20/2021] [Revised: 03/31/2021] [Accepted: 04/15/2021] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
The Arabidopsis thaliana RPD3-type histone deacetylases have been known to form conserved SIN3-type histone deacetylase complexes, but whether they form other types of complexes is unknown. Here, we perform affinity purification followed by mass spectrometry and demonstrate that the Arabidopsis RPD3-type histone deacetylases HDA6 and HDA19 interact with several previously uncharacterized proteins, thereby forming three types of plant-specific histone deacetylase complexes, which we named SANT, ESANT, and ARID. RNA-seq indicates that the newly identified components function together with HDA6 and HDA19 and coregulate the expression of a number of genes. HDA6 and HDA19 were previously thought to repress gene transcription by histone deacetylation. We find that the histone deacetylase complexes can repress gene expression via both histone deacetylation-dependent and -independent mechanisms. In the mutants of histone deacetylase complexes, the expression of a number of stress-induced genes is up-regulated, and several mutants of the histone deacetylase complexes show severe retardation in growth. Considering that growth retardation is thought to be a trade-off for an increase in stress tolerance, we infer that the histone deacetylase complexes identified in this study prevent overexpression of stress-induced genes and thereby ensure normal growth of plants under nonstress conditions.

Abstract
The deacetylation of core histones controlled by the action of histone deacetylases (HDACs) plays an important role in the epigenetic regulation of plant gene transcription. However, no systematic analysis of HDAC genes in Dendrobium officinale, a medicinal orchid, has been performed. In the current study, a total of 14 histone deacetylases in D. officinale were identified and characterized using bioinformatics-based methods. These genes were classified into RPD3/HDA1, SIR2, and HD2 subfamilies. Most DoHDAC genes in the same subfamily shared similar structures, and their encoded proteins contained similar motifs, suggesting that the HDAC family members are highly conserved and might have similar functions. Different cis-acting elements in promoters were related to abiotic stresses and exogenous plant hormones. A transient expression assay in onion epidermal cells by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation indicated that all of the detected histone deacetylases such as DoHDA7, DoHDA9, DoHDA10, DoHDT3, DoHDT4, DoSRT1 and DoSRT2, were localized in the nucleus. A tissue-specific analysis based on RNA-seq suggested that DoHDAC genes play a role in growth and development in D. officinale. The expression profiles of selected DoHDAC genes under abiotic stresses and plant hormone treatments were analyzed by qRT-PCR. DoHDA3, DoHDA8, DoHDA10 and DoHDT4 were modulated by multiple abiotic stresses and phytohormones, indicating that these genes were involved in abiotic stress response and phytohormone signaling pathways. These results provide valuable information for molecular studies to further elucidate the function of DoHDAC genes.

The formation of perinucleolar bodies is important for normal leaf development and requires the zinc-finger DNA-binding motif in Arabidopsis ASYMMETRIC LEAVES2. THE PLANT JOURNAL : FOR CELL AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY 2020; 101:1118-1134. [PMID: 31639235 PMCID: PMC7155070 DOI: 10.1111/tpj.14579] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2018] [Revised: 09/30/2019] [Accepted: 10/08/2019] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
In Arabidopsis, the ASYMMETRIC LEAVES2 (AS2) protein plays a key role in the formation of flat symmetric leaves via direct repression of the abaxial gene ETT/ARF3. AS2 encodes a plant-specific nuclear protein that contains the AS2/LOB domain, which includes a zinc-finger (ZF) motif that is conserved in the AS2/LOB family. We have shown that AS2 binds to the coding DNA of ETT/ARF3, which requires the ZF motif. AS2 is co-localized with AS1 in perinucleolar bodies (AS2 bodies). To identify the amino acid signals in AS2 required for formation of AS2 bodies and function(s) in leaf formation, we constructed recombinant DNAs that encoded mutant AS2 proteins fused to yellow fluorescent protein. We examined the subcellular localization of these proteins in cells of cotyledons and leaf primordia of transgenic plants and cultured cells. The amino acid signals essential for formation of AS2 bodies were located within and adjacent to the ZF motif. Mutant AS2 that failed to form AS2 bodies also failed to rescue the as2-1 mutation. Our results suggest the importance of the formation of AS2 bodies and the nature of interactions of AS2 with its target DNA and nucleolar factors including NUCLEOLIN1. The partial overlap of AS2 bodies with perinucleolar chromocenters with condensed ribosomal RNA genes implies a correlation between AS2 bodies and the chromatin state. Patterns of AS2 bodies in cells during interphase and mitosis in leaf primordia were distinct from those in cultured cells, suggesting that the formation and distribution of AS2 bodies are developmentally modulated in plants.
