FRONTIERS IN PLANT SCIENCE 2023; 14:1116237.

Abstract
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) is a key enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway responsible for the generation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), thereby playing a central role in facilitating cellular responses to stress and maintaining redox homeostasis. This study aimed to characterize five G6PDH gene family members in maize. The classification of these ZmG6PDHs into plastidic and cytosolic isoforms was enabled by phylogenetic and transit peptide predictive analyses and confirmed by subcellular localization imaging analyses using maize mesophyll protoplasts. These ZmG6PDH genes exhibited distinctive expression patterns across tissues and developmental stages. Exposure to stressors, including cold, osmotic stress, salinity, and alkaline conditions, also significantly affected the expression and activity of the ZmG6PDHs, with particularly high expression of a cytosolic isoform (ZmG6PDH1) in response to cold stress and closely correlated with G6PDH enzymatic activity, suggesting that it may play a central role in shaping responses to cold conditions. CRISPR/Cas9-mediated knockout of ZmG6PDH1 on the B73 background led to enhanced cold stress sensitivity. Significant changes in the redox status of the NADPH, ascorbic acid (ASA), and glutathione (GSH) pools were observed after exposure of the zmg6pdh1 mutants to cold stress, with this disrupted redox balance contributing to increased production of reactive oxygen species and resultant cellular damage and death. Overall, these results highlight the importance of cytosolic ZmG6PDH1 in supporting maize resistance to cold stress, at least in part by producing NADPH that can be used by the ASA-GSH cycle to mitigate cold-induced oxidative damage.

Abstract
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) catalyzes a metabolic hub between glycolysis and the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), which is the oxidation of glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) to 6-phosphogluconolactone concomitantly with the production of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), a reducing power. It is considered to be the rate-limiting step that governs carbon flow through the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OPPP). The OPPP is the main supplier of reductant (NADPH) for several "reducing" biosynthetic reactions. Although it is involved in multiple physiological processes, current knowledge on its exact role and regulation is still piecemeal. The present review provides a concise and comprehensive picture of the diversity of plant G6PDHs and their role in seed germination, nitrogen assimilation, plant branching, and plant response to abiotic stress. This work will help define future research directions to improve our knowledge of G6PDHs in plant physiology and to integrate this hidden player in plant performance.

[PMID: 36217064 DOI: 10.1007/s00425-022-04010-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/07/2022] [Accepted: 10/03/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
G6PDH negatively regulates viral accumulation in Nicotiana benthamiana through RBOHB-associated ROS signaling. Anti-oxidative metabolism and phytohormone-mediated immunity responses play important roles in virus infection. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) is an enzyme in the pentose phosphate pathway, which plays an important role in maintaining intracellular redox homeostasis and has functions in plant growth, development and stress tolerance. However, the role of G6PDH in plants response to virus infection is poorly understood. In this study, NbG6PDH was found to be down-regulated after Chilli veinal mottle virus (ChiVMV-GFP) infection in Nicotiana benthamiana. Subcellular localization of NbG6PDH showed that it was punctate distributed in the protoplasm. Silencing of NbG6PDH reduced the sensitivity of N. benthamiana plants to ChiVMV-GFP. By contrast, transient overexpression of NbG6PDH promoted the accumulation of the virus. The results of physiological indexes showed that glutathione (GSH), catalase (CAT) and proline played an important role in maintaining plants physiological homeostasis. The results of gene expression detection showed that jasmonic acid/ethylene (JA/ET) signaling pathway was significantly correlated with the response of N. benthamiana to ChiVMV-GFP infection, and the changes of N. benthamiana respiratory burst oxidase homologues B (NbRBOHB) indicated that the NbG6PDH-dependent ROS may be regulated by NbRBOHB. Pretreatment of the inducer of reactive oxygen species (ROS) promoted virus infection, whereas inhibitor of ROS alleviated virus infection. Thus, our results indicate that the promoting effect of NbG6PDH on ChiVMV-GFP infection may be related to the NbRBOHB-regulated ROS production.

Genome-Wide Investigation of G6PDH Gene in Strawberry: Evolution and Expression Analysis during Development and Stress. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:4728.

Abstract
As one of the key enzymes in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) provides NADPH and plays an important role in plant development and stress responses. However, little information was available about the G6PDH genes in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa). The recent release of the whole-genome sequence of strawberry allowed us to perform a genome-wide investigation into the organization and expression profiling of strawberry G6PDH genes. In the present study, 19 strawberry G6PDH genes (FaG6PDHs) were identified from the strawberry genome database. They were designated as FaG6PDH1 to FaG6PDH19, respectively, according to the conserved domain of each subfamily and multiple sequence alignment with Arabidopsis. According to their structural and phylogenetic features, the 19 FaG6PDHs were further classified into five types: Cy, P1, P1.1, P2 and PO. The number and location of exons and introns are similar, suggesting that genes of the same type are very similar and are alleles. A cis-element analysis inferred that FaG6PDHs possessed at least one stress-responsive cis-acting element. Expression profiles derived from transcriptome data analysis exhibited distinct expression patterns of FaG6PDHs genes in different developmental stages. Real-time quantitative PCR was used to detect the expression level of five types FaG6PDHs genes and demonstrated that the genes were expressed and responded to multiple abiotic stress and hormonal treatments.

Heat stress-mediated effects on the morphophysiological, biochemical, and ultrastructural parameters of germinating Melanoxylon brauna Schott. seeds. PLANT CELL REPORTS 2021; 40:1773-1787.

Abstract
The present study showed that the heat stress (40 °C) caused changes in morphophysiological, biochemical, and ultrastructural parameters to the seeds Melanoxylon brauna, ultimately leading to loss of germination capacity. Temperature is an abiotic factor that influences seed germination. In the present study, we investigated morphophysiological, biochemical, and ultrastructural changes during the germination of Melanoxylon brauna seeds under heat stress. Seed germination was evaluated at constant temperatures of 25 and 40 °C. The samples consisted of seeds soaked in distilled and ionized water for 48 and 96 h at both temperatures. For the evaluation of internal morphology, the seeds were radiographed. Ultrastructural parameters were assessed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), content of malondialdehyde (MDA) and glucose, carbonylated proteins, and activity of the enzymes (superoxide dismutase-SOD, ascorbate peroxidase-APX, catalase-CAT, peroxidase-POX, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-G6PDH, lipase, α- and β-amylase, and protease) were measured by spectrophotometric analysis. An 82% reduction in the germination of M. brauna seeds was observed at 25 °C, and 0% at 40 °C. TEM showed that seeds submitted to heat stress (40 °C) had poorly developed mitochondria and significantly reduced respiration rates. The content of ROS and protein carbonylation in seeds subjected to 40 °C increased compared to that at 25 °C. The activity of antioxidant enzymes, namely SOD, APX, CAT, and POX, was significantly reduced in seeds subjected to heat stress. Glucose content, G6PDH, and lipase activity also decreased when the seeds were exposed to heat stress. Conversely, α- and β-amylase enzymes and the protease increased due to the increase in temperature. Our data showed that the increase in temperature caused an accumulation of ROS, increasing the oxidative damage to the seeds, which led to mitochondrial dysfunction, ultimately leading to loss of germination.
