Abstract
Hexokinase (HXK) is involved in hexose phosphorylation, sugar sensing, and signal transduction, all of which regulate plant growth and adaptation to stresses. Gossypium hirsutum L. is one of the most important fiber crops in the world, however, little is known about the HXKs gene family in G. hirsutum L. We identified 17 GhHXKs from the allotetraploid G. hirsutum L. genome (AADD). G. raimondii (DD) and G. arboreum (AA) are the diploid progenitors of G. hirsutum L. and contributed equally to the At_genome and Dt_genome GhHXKs genes. The chromosomal locations and exon-intron structures of GhHXK genes among cotton species are conservative. Phylogenetic analysis grouped the HXK proteins into four and three groups based on whether they were monocotyledons and dicotyledons, respectively. Duplication event analysis demonstrated that HXKs in G. hirsutum L. primarily originated from segmental duplication, which prior to diploid hybridization. Experiments of qRT-PCR, transcriptome and promoter cis-elements demonstrated that GhHXKs' promoters have auxin and GA responsive elements that are highly expressed in the fiber initiation and elongation stages, while the promoters contain ABA-, MeJA-, and SA-responsive elements that are highly expressed during the synthesis of the secondary cell wall. We performed a comprehensive analysis of the GhHXK gene family is a vital fiber crop, which lays the foundation for future studies assessing its role in fiber development.

Inositol hexakisphosphate biosynthesis underpins PAMP-triggered immunity to Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato in Arabidopsis thaliana but is dispensable for establishment of systemic acquired resistance. MOLECULAR PLANT PATHOLOGY 2020; 21:376-387. [PMID: 31876373 PMCID: PMC7036367 DOI: 10.1111/mpp.12902] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2019] [Revised: 11/26/2019] [Accepted: 11/28/2019] [Indexed: 05/27/2023]
Abstract
Phytic acid (inositol hexakisphosphate, InsP6 ) is an important phosphate store and signal molecule necessary for maintenance of basal resistance to plant pathogens. Arabidopsis thaliana ('arabidopsis') has three genes encoding myo-inositol phosphate synthases (IPS1-3), the enzymes that catalyse conversion of glucose-6-phosphate to InsP, the first step in InsP6 biosynthesis. There is one gene for inositol-(1,3,4,5,6)-pentakisphosphate 2-kinase (IPK1), which catalyses the final step. Previously, we showed that mutation of IPS2 and IPK1 but not IPS1 increased susceptibility to pathogens. Our aim was to better understand the InsP6 biosynthesis pathway in plant defence. Here we found that the susceptibility of arabidopsis (Col-0) to virulent and avirulent Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato was also increased in ips3 and ips2/3 double mutants. Also, ipk1 plants had compromised expression of local acquired resistance induced by treatment with the pathogen-derived molecular pattern (PAMP) molecule flg22, but were unaffected in other responses to flg22, including Ca2+ influx and the oxidative burst, seedling root growth inhibition, and transcriptional up-regulation of the PAMP-triggered genes MITOGEN-ACTIVATED PROTEIN KINASE (MPK) 3, MPK11, CINNAMYL ALCOHOL DEHYDROGENASE 5, and FLG22-INDUCED RECEPTOR-LIKE KINASE 1. IPK1 mutation did not prevent the induction of systemic acquired resistance by avirulent P. syringae. Also, ips2 and ips2/3 double mutant plants, like ipk1, were hypersusceptible to P. syringae but were not compromised in flg22-induced local acquired resistance. The results support the role of InsP6 biosynthesis enzymes in effective basal resistance and indicate that there is more than one basal resistance mechanism dependent upon InsP6 biosynthesis.

Abstract
Reduction of phytate is a major goal of plant breeding programs to improve the nutritional quality of crops. Remarkably, except for the storage organs of crops such as barley, maize and soybean, we know little of the stereoisomeric composition of inositol phosphates in plant tissues. To investigate the metabolic origins of higher inositol phosphates in photosynthetic tissues, we have radiolabelled leaf tissue of Solanum tuberosum with myo-[2-3H]inositol, undertaken a detailed analysis of inositol phosphate stereoisomerism and permeabilized mesophyll protoplasts in media containing inositol phosphates. We describe the inositol phosphate composition of leaf tissue and identify pathways of inositol phosphate metabolism that we reveal to be common to other kingdoms. Our results identify the metabolic origins of a number of higher inositol phosphates including ones that are precursors of cofactors, or cofactors of plant hormone-receptor complexes. The present study affords alternative explanations of the effects of disruption of inositol phosphate metabolism reported in other species, and identifies different inositol phosphates from that described in photosynthetic tissue of the monocot Spirodela polyrhiza. We define the pathways of inositol hexakisphosphate turnover and shed light on the occurrence of a number of inositol phosphates identified in animals, for which metabolic origins have not been defined.

Abstract
GC and GC-MS are excellent techniques for the analysis of carbohydrates; nevertheless the preparation of adequate derivatives is necessary. The different functional groups that can be found and the diversity of samples require specific methods. This review aims to collect the most important methodologies currently used, either published as new procedures or as new applications, for the analysis of carbohydrates. A high diversity of compounds with diverse functionalities has been selected: neutral carbohydrates (saccharides and polyalcohols), sugar acids, amino and iminosugars, polysaccharides, glycosides, glycoconjugates, anhydrosugars, difructose anhydrides and products resulting of Maillard reaction (osuloses, Amadori compounds). Chiral analysis has also been considered, describing the use of diastereomers and derivatives to be eluted on chiral stationary phases.

Abstract
Using a forward genetics approach, we isolated two independent low phytic acid (lpa) rice mutants, N15-186 and N15-375. Both mutants are caused by single gene, recessive non-lethal mutations, which result in approximately 75% (N15-186) and 43% (N15-375) reductions in seed phytic acid (inositol hexakisphosphate). High-performance liquid chromatography and GC-MS analysis of seed extracts from N15-186 indicated that, in addition to phytic acid, inositol monophosphate was significantly reduced whereas inorganic phosphorus and myo-inositol were greatly increased when compared with wild-type. The changes observed in N15-186 resemble those previously described for the maize lpa3 mutant. Analysis of N15-375 revealed changes similar to those observed in previously characterized rice lpa1 mutants (i.e. significant reduction in phytic acid and corresponding increase in inorganic phosphorus with little or no change in inositol phosphate intermediates or myo-inositol). Further genetic analysis of the N15-186 mutant indicated that the mutation, designated lpa N15-186, was located in a region on chromosome 3 between the microsatellite markers RM15875 and RM15907. The rice orthologue of maize lpa3, which encodes a myo-inositol kinase, is in this interval. Sequence analysis of the N15-186 allele of this orthologue (Os03g52760) revealed a single base pair change (C/G to T/A) in the first exon of the gene, which results in a nonsense mutation. Our results indicate that lpa N15-186 is a mutant allele of the rice myo-inositol kinase (OsMIK) gene. Identification and characterization of lpa mutants, such as N15-186, will facilitate studies on the regulation of phytic acid biosynthesis and accumulation and help address questions concerning the contribution of the inositol lipid-dependent and independent biosynthetic pathways to the production of seed phytic acid.

Abstract
Mycothiol is the major thiol produced by mycobacteria and is required for growth of Mycobacterium tuberculosis. The final three steps in the biosynthesis of mycothiol have been fully elucidated but the initial steps have been unclear. A glycosyltransferase, MshA, is required for production of the mycothiol precursor, 1-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-myo-inositol, but its substrates and immediate products were unknown. In this study, we show that the N-acetylglucosamine donor is UDP-N-acetylglucosamine and that the N-acetylglucosamine acceptor is 1L-myo-inositol 1-phosphate. The reaction generates UDP and 1-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-myo-inositol 3-phosphate. Using cell-free extracts of M. smegmatis mc(2)155, little activity was obtained with myo-inositol, 1D-myo-inositol 1-phosphate, or myo-inositol 2-phosphate as the N-acetylglucosamine acceptor. A phosphatase, designated MshA2, is required to dephosphorylate 1-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-glucopyranosyl)-D-myo-inositol 3-phosphate to produce 1-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl)-D-myo-inositol. The latter is deacetylated, ligated with cysteine, and the cysteinyl amino group acetylated by acetyl-CoA to complete the mycothiol biosynthesis pathway. Uptake and concentration of myo-[14C]inositol is rapid in Mycobacterium smegmatis and leads to production of radiolabeled inositol 1-phosphate and mycothiol. This demonstrates the presence of a myo-inositol transporter and a kinase that generates 1L-myo-inositol 1-phosphate. The biochemical pathway of mycothiol biosynthesis is now fully elucidated.

Abstract
Phytic acid, myo-inositol-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexakisphosphate or Ins P6, is the most abundant myo-inositol phosphate in plant cells, but its biosynthesis is poorly understood. Also uncertain is the role of myo-inositol as a precursor of phytic acid biosynthesis. We identified a low-phytic acid mutant, lpa3, in maize. The Mu-insertion mutant has a phenotype of reduced phytic acid, increased myo-inositol and lacks significant amounts of myo-inositol phosphate intermediates in seeds. The gene responsible for the mutation encodes a myo-inositol kinase (MIK). Maize MIK protein contains conserved amino acid residues found in pfkB carbohydrate kinases. The maize lpa3 gene is expressed in developing embryos, where phytic acid is actively synthesized and accumulates to a large amount. Characterization of the lpa3 mutant provides direct evidence for the role of myo-inositol and MIK in phytic acid biosynthesis in developing seeds. Recombinant maize MIK phosphorylates myo-inositol to produce multiple myo-inositol monophosphates, Ins1/3P, Ins4/6P and possibly Ins5P. The characteristics of the lpa3 mutant and MIK suggest that MIK is not a salvage enzyme for myo-inositol recycling and that there are multiple phosphorylation routes to phytic acid in developing seeds. Analysis of the lpa2/lpa3 double mutant implies interactions between the phosphorylation routes.

Abstract
When viewing the changes in our understanding of inositides over the last 20 years, it is difficult to know whether to be more impressed by the proliferation in the number of inositides themselves (e.g. seven polyphosphoinositol lipids, more than 30 inositol phosphates), or by the number of functions for each. This review will focus on two specific aspects of this diversity: the evolution of the polyphosphoinositides, and the synthesis and functions of the higher inositol phosphates.

Abstract
Following the discovery of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate as a second messenger, many other inositol phosphates were discovered in quick succession, with some understanding of their synthesis pathways and a few guesses at their possible functions. But then it all seemed to go comparatively quiet, with an explosion of interest in the inositol lipids. Now the water-soluble phase is once again becoming a focus of interest. Old and new data point to a new vista of inositol phosphates, with functions in many diverse aspects of cell biology, such as ion-channel physiology, membrane dynamics and nuclear signalling.

Abstract
Phytic acid (myo-inositol-1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6-hexakisphosphate or Ins P(6)) typically represents approximately 75% to 80% of maize (Zea mays) seed total P. Here we describe the origin, inheritance, and seed phenotype of two non-lethal maize low phytic acid mutants, lpa1-1 and lpa2-1. The loci map to two sites on chromosome 1S. Seed phytic acid P is reduced in these mutants by 50% to 66% but seed total P is unaltered. The decrease in phytic acid P in mature lpa1-1 seeds is accompanied by a corresponding increase in inorganic phosphate (P(i)). In mature lpa2-1 seed it is accompanied by increases in P(i) and at least three other myo-inositol (Ins) phosphates (and/or their respective enantiomers): D-Ins(1,2,4,5,6) P(5); D-Ins (1,4,5,6) P(4); and D-Ins(1,2,6) P(3). In both cases the sum of seed P(i) and Ins phosphates (including phytic acid) is constant and similar to that observed in normal seeds. In both mutants P chemistry appears to be perturbed throughout seed development. Homozygosity for either mutant results in a seed dry weight loss, ranging from 4% to 23%. These results indicate that phytic acid metabolism during seed development is not solely responsible for P homeostasis and indicate that the phytic acid concentration typical of a normal maize seed is not essential to seed function.

Abstract
Partisphere SAX HPLC analysis of endogenous inositol phosphates in [3H]inositol-labelled barley aleurone tissue revealed a range of isomers, including D- and/or L-Ins3P, D- and/or L-Ins(1,4)P2, D- and/or L-Ins(1,2)P2, a third unidentified InsP2, Ins(1,2,3)P3, D- and/or L-Ins(1,2,6)P3, D-and/or L-Ins(1,2,3,4)P4, D- and/or L-Ins(1,2,5,6)P4, Ins(1,3,4,5,6)P5, D- and/or L-Ins(1,2,3,4,5)P5, Ins(1,2,3,4,6)P5, InsP6 and a molecule with the chromatographic properties of an inositol pyrophosphate. The striking match between the identities of the stereoisomers, and in some cases enantiomers, detected in vivo and those stereoisomers produced in vitro by the action of wheat-bran phytase on InsP6 [Cosgrove (1980) Inositol Phosphates: Their Chemistry, Bio-chemistry and Physiology. Elsevier, Amsterdam] strongly suggests that most of the inositol phosphates identified are products of the breakdown of InsP4 by endogenous phytase(s) with stereospecificity similar to that of the wheat-bran enzyme(s).

Abstract
The aquatic monocotyledonous plant Spirodela polyrhiza was labelled with [33P]Pi for short periods under non-equilibrium conditions. An InsP6 fraction was obtained and dissected by using enantiospecific (enzymic) and non-enantiospecific (chemical) means to determine the relative labelling of individual phosphate substituents on the inositol ring of InsP6. Phosphates in positions D-1, -2, -3, -4, -5 and -6 contained approx. 21%, 32-39%, 9-10%, 14-16%, 19-23% and 16-18% of the label respectively. We conclude from the foregoing, together with identities [described in the preceding paper, Brearley and Hanke (1996) Biochem. J. 314, 215-225] of inositol phosphates found in this plant at a developmental stage associated with massive accumulation of InsP6, that synthesis of InsP6 from myo-inositol proceeds according to the sequence Ins3P-->Ins(3,4)P2-->Ins(3,4,6)P3-->Ins(3,4,5,6)P4-->Ins(1,3,4,5,6 ) P5-->InsP6 in Spirodela polyrhiza. These results represent the first description of the synthetic sequence to InsP6 in the plant kingdom and the only comprehensive description of endogenous inositol phosphates in any plant tissue. The sequence described differs from that reported in the slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum.

Abstract
A soluble ATP-dependent enzyme which phosphorylates myo-inositol has been characterized in Dictyostelium. The myo-inositol kinase activity was partially purified from amoebae by chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose and phenyl-Sepharose columns. The product of both the partially purified activity and of a crude cytosolic fraction was myo-inositol 3-phosphate. The partially purified preparations of myo-inositol kinase (a) possessed a Km for myo-inositol of 120 microM (in the presence of 5 mM-ATP) and for ATP of 125 microM (in the presence of 1 microM-myo-inositol), (b) did not recognize allo-, epi-, muco-, neo-, scyllo-, 1 D-chiro or 1 L-chiro-inositol as substrates, (c) were competitively inhibited by three naturally occurring analogues of myo-inositol: 1 L-chiro-inositol (Ki 49.5 +/- 0.7 microM: the structural equivalent of myo-inositol, except that the D-3 hydroxy moiety is axial), D-3-deoxy-myo-inositol [Ki 103 +/- 1 microM: (-)-viburnitol], and sequoyitol (Ki 271 +/- 7 microM; unlike 1 L-chiro-inositol and D-3-deoxy-myo-inositol, this was a substrate for the kinase), and finally (d) were apparently non-competitively inhibited by myo-inositol 3-phosphate. The product of myo-inositol kinase could be detected in intact amoebae and was a substrate for the first in a series of inositol polyphosphate kinases present in Dictyostelium which ultimately yield myo-inositol hexakisphosphate. The activity of myo-inositol D-3-hydroxykinase in Dictyostelium lysates showed evidence of developmental regulation.

We have shown previously that inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) stimulates an efflux of (45)Ca(2+) from fusogenic carrot protoplasts (M Rincón, WF Boss [1987] Plant Physiol 83: 395-398). In light of these results, we suggested that IP(3) might serve as a second messenger for the mobilization of intracellular Ca(2+) in higher plant cells. To determine whether or not IP(3) and other inositol phosphates were present in the carrot cells, the cells were labeled with myo-[2-(3)H]inositol for 18 hours and extracted with ice-cold 10% trichloroacetic acid. The inositol metabolites were separated by anion exchange chromatography and by paper electrophoresis. We found that [(3)H]inositol metabolites coeluted with inositol bisphosphate (IP(2)) and IP(3) when separated by anion exchange chromatography. However, we could not detect IP(2) or IP(3) when the inositol metabolites were analyzed by paper electrophoresis even though the polyphosphoinositides, which are the source of IP(2) and IP(3), were present in these cells. Thus, [(3)H] inositol metabolites other than IP(2) and IP(3) had coeluted on the anion exchange columns. The data indicate that either IP(3) is rapidly metabolized or that it is not present at a detectable level in the carrot cells.

Abstract
Homogenates of primary-cultured murine bone macrophages contain an enzyme capable of synthesizing myo-[3H]inositol pentakisphosphate from myo-[3H]inositol tetrakisphosphate fractions derived from myo-[3H]inositol-labelled mouse macrophages and chick erythrocytes. D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis[32P]-phosphate present in the same incubations was not phosphorylated. Since the myo-[3H]inositol-labelled tetrakisphosphate fractions used as substrates consist of a mixture of L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (60-85%) and a periodate-resistant tetrakisphosphate(s) whose characteristics are consistent with those of D-myo-inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate (the preceding paper [Stephens, Hawkins, Carter, Chahwala, Morris, Whetton & Downes (1988) Biochem. J. 249, 271-282] ), these data suggest the existence of a kinase that phosphorylates L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate to give a myo-inositol pentakisphosphate. A similar activity was identified in homogenates of rat cerebrum, liver, heart and parotid gland. D-myo-Inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakis[32P]phosphate in the same incubations was not a substrate. The activity was almost entirely soluble in all the tissues investigated and was found at its greatest specific activity in brain cytosol. The activity was purified 120-fold from a rat brain homogenate by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation and anion-exchange chromatography. The activity was clearly distinct from D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (3-hydroxy)kinase. Incubation of this partially purified preparation with L-myo-[3H]inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate from chick erythrocytes and [gamma-32P]ATP resulted in the formation of L-myo-[3H]-inositol [1-32P]1,3,4,5,6-pentakisphosphate. The enzyme is therefore identified as an L-myo-inositol 1,4,5,6-tetrakisphosphate (3-hydroxy)kinase.
