Alginate Oligosaccharides Alleviate Salt Stress in Rice Seedlings by Regulating Cell Wall Metabolism to Maintain Cell Wall Structure and Improve Lodging Resistance. PLANTS (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2024; 13:1215. [PMID: 38732430 PMCID: PMC11085217 DOI: 10.3390/plants13091215] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2024] [Revised: 04/23/2024] [Accepted: 04/25/2024] [Indexed: 05/13/2024]
Abstract
Salt stress is one of the major abiotic stresses that damage the structure and composition of cell walls. Alginate oligosaccharides (AOS) have been advocated to significantly improve plant stress tolerance. The metabolic mechanism by which AOS induces salt tolerance in rice cell walls remains unclear. Here, we report the impact of AOS foliar application on the cell wall composition of rice seedlings using the salt-tolerant rice variety FL478 and the salt-sensitive variety IR29. Data revealed that salt stress decreased biomass, stem basal width, stem breaking strength, and lodging resistance; however, it increased cell wall thickness. In leaves, exogenous AOS up-regulated the expression level of OSCESA8, increased abscisic acid (ABA) and brassinosteroids (BR) content, and increased β-galacturonic activity, polygalacturonase activity, xylanase activity, laccase activity, biomass, and cellulose content. Moreover, AOS down-regulated the expression levels of OSMYB46 and OSIRX10 and decreased cell wall hemicellulose, pectin, and lignin content to maintain cell wall stability under salt stress. In stems, AOS increased phenylalamine ammonia-lyase and tyrosine ammonia-lyase activities, while decreasing cellulase, laccase, and β-glucanase activities. Furthermore, AOS improved the biomass and stem basal width and also enhanced the cellulose, pectin, and lignin content of the stem, As a result, increased resistance to stem breakage strength and alleviated salt stress-induced damage, thus enhancing the lodging resistance. Under salt stress, AOS regulates phytohormones and modifies cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, and pectin metabolism to maintain cell wall structure and improve stem resistance to lodging. This study aims to alleviate salt stress damage to rice cell walls, enhance resistance to lodging, and improve salt tolerance in rice by exogenous application of AOS.

Abstract
Poplar calli transcribed two cellulase (endo-1,4-beta-glucanase) genes, PopCel1 and PopCel2, whose mRNAs were differentially located in the growing leaves of poplar during cell wall synthesis. Histochemical and RT-PCR analyses of promoter-GUS fusion gene activities in transgenic poplar demonstrated that PopCel1 promoter-derived GUS activity was localized in the petiole and leaf veins, whereas PopCel2 was confined to mesophyll cells and disappeared from the tip during the development of leaves. Autoradiography of the leaf showed that the radioactivity of [14C]sucrose incorporated into cellulose corresponded to the combination of the sucrose-induced tissue-specific patterns of PopCel1 and PopCel2. Interestingly, 2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile (DCB) not only inhibited the incorporation of the radioactivity into cellulose, but also repressed the induction of both cellulase genes. Suppression of cellulases by expression of PopCel1 antisense cDNA or co-suppression of PopCel1 mRNA by overexpression of PopCel1 sense cDNA reduced leaf growth. Therefore, we came to the conclusion that PopCel1 and PopCel2 probably function to promote leaf growth in poplar by the endohydrolysis of 1,4-beta-glucan.

Abstract
Suspension-cultured poplar (Populus alba) cells produce two distinct endo-1,4-beta-glucanases, one of which is released in the extracellular culture medium and the other localized in their walls. Two cDNA clones, PopCel1 and PopCel2, isolated from a poplar cDNA library, encode the extracellular and the wall-bound endo-1, 4-beta-glucanases, respectively, based upon deduced amino acid sequences. The products of these two genes contained domains conserved in endo-1,4-beta-glucanase (family 9) and showed 91.5% amino acid identity. The levels of both PopCel1 and PopCel2 mRNAs increased during the lag phase of growth and decreased rapidly during the linear phase. After the levels had decreased, they were again increased by addition of sucrose to the culture medium and further enhanced by the addition of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in the presence of sucrose. The accumulation of the mRNAs was correlated with the solubilization of cello-oligosaccharides. Cello-oligosaccharides and xyloglucan were also solubilized from the wall preparations of poplar cells incubated with enzyme preparations from the extracellular culture medium and walls. An antibody against both PopCel proteins reduced the production of cello-oligosaccharides by the extracellular enzyme by 90% and that by the wall-bound enzyme by 55%, and also prevented xyloglucan solubilization. The results show that the accumulation of poplar endo-1,4-beta-glucanases is regulated indirectly by auxin in the presence of sucrose and can act on cellulose in suspension-cultured poplar cells.

Abstract
Endo-1,4-beta-D-glucanases (EGases, EC 3.2.1.4) are enzymes produced in bacteria, fungi, and plants that hydrolyze polysaccharides possessing a 1,4-beta-D-glucan backbone. All previously identified plant EGases are E-type endoglucanases that possess signal sequences for endoplasmic reticulum entry and are secreted to the cell wall. Here we report the characterization of a novel E-type plant EGase (tomato Cel3) with a hydrophobic transmembrane domain and structure typical of type II integral membrane proteins. The predicted protein is composed of 617 amino acids and possesses seven potential sites for N-glycosylation. Cel3 mRNA accumulates in young vegetative tissues with highest abundance during periods of rapid cell expansion, but is not hormonally regulated. Antibodies raised to a recombinant Cel3 protein specifically recognized three proteins, with apparent molecular masses of 93, 88, and 53 kDa, in tomato root microsomal membranes separated by sucrose density centrifugation. The 53-kDa protein comigrated in the gradient with plasma membrane markers, the 88-kDa protein with Golgi membrane markers, and the 93-kDa protein with markers for both Golgi and plasma membranes. EGase enzyme activity was also found in regions of the density gradient corresponding to both Golgi and plasma membranes, suggesting that Cel3 EGase resides in both membrane systems, the sites of cell wall polymer biosynthesis. The in vivo function of Cel3 is not known, but the only other known membrane-anchored EGase is present in Agrobacterium tumefaciens where it is required for cellulose biosynthesis.

Abstract
Cutin, a biopolyester composed of hydroxy and epoxy fatty acids, is the barrier between the aerial parts of higher plants and their environment. Suberin a polymer containing aromatics and polyesters, functions as a barrier in underground parts, wound surfaces, and a variety of internal organs. The composition and probable structure of these polymers are discussed. The biosynthesis of the hydroxy, epoxy, and dicarboxylic acids of the polyesters from the common cellular fatty acids is elucidated. An extracellular enzyme transfers the hydroxy and epoxyacyl moieties from their coenzyme A derivatives to the growing polyester. The enzymes acting in the biodegradation of the polyesters have been isolated from fungi, pollen, and mammals and characterized. The function and possible practical implications of these polyester barriers are briefly discussed.

Abstract
Two buffer-soluble endo-1,3-beta-D-glucanases (EC 3.2.1.6) have been purified to within 1% of electrophoretic homogeneity from etiolated Pisum sativum stem tissues. Purified glucanase I and II differ in physical properties, such as electrophoretic mobility in sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels (Mr values were 22 000 and 37 000, respectively) and isoelectric focusing, (pI values were 5.4 and 6.8, respectively). Although the enzymes have similar pH optima (5.5--6.0), Km values for various substrates (0.6--7.4 mg/ml) and thermal inactivation profiles, they are localized in different tissues and they differ markedly in the rates with which they attack the internal linkages of long- vs. short-chain substrates. Glucanase I is concentrated in apical regions of the stem and is most effectively assayed reductometrically (as laminarinase), while glucanase II is localized in mature regions and is relatively more active in viscometric assays (as carboxymethyl-pachymanase).

Abstract
Four electrophoretically distinct endo-1,4-beta-D-glucanases (EC 3.2.1.4) from Trichoderma viride have been identified and named as isozymes, Endoglucanases I, II, III and IV, according to their electrophoretic mobilities on polyacrylamide gels. Endoglucanases II, III and IV, the homogeneity of each of which was established by discontinuous gel electrophoresis and ultracentrifugation, had specific activities on CM-cellulose of 1010, 60 and 250 specific fluidity units/mg protein, respectively. These enzymes have similar pH optima (pH 4.0-4.5) and are labile at pH values greater than 8.0. The endoglucanases are high in acidic and hydroxylated amino acids and glycine, but low in basic amino acids. Values of 12.0, 10.3 and 13.1 have been determined for the epsilon 1%280 of purified Endoglucanases II, III and IV, respectively. Sedimentation equilibrium analysis has established the molecular weights of Endoglucanases II, III and IV to be 37 200, 52 000 and 49 500, respectively. The three endoglucanases contain mannose, galactose, glucose and glucosamine. Mannose is the principal neutral sugar in each enzyme. Endoglucanase II is distinguished by its low carbohydrate content, 4.5% (w/w), compared to Endoglucanases III and IV which contain 15.0% and 15.2% carbohydrate, respectively.
