Abstract
Brassinosteroids (BRs) are plant hormones that are essential in plant growth and development. BRASSINOSTEROID-INSENSITIVE 1 (BRI1) and BRI1 ASSOCIATED RECEPTOR KINASE 1 (BAK1), which are located on the plasma membrane, function as co-receptors that accept and transmit BR signals. PROHIBITIN 3 (PHB3) was identified in both BRI1 and BAK1 complexes by affinity purification and LC-MS/MS analysis. Biochemical data showed that BRI1/BAK1 interacted with PHB3 in vitro and in vivo. BRI1/BAK1 phosphorylated PHB3 in vitro. When the Thr-80 amino acid in PHB3 was mutated to Ala, the mutant protein was not phosphorylated by BRI1 and the mutant protein interaction with BRI1 was abolished in the yeast two-hybrid assay. BAK1 did not phosphorylate the mutant protein PHB3T54A . The loss-of-function phb3 mutant showed a weaker BR signal than the wild-type. Genetic analyses revealed that PHB3 is a BRI1/BAK1 downstream substrate that participates in BR signalling. PHB3 has five homozygous in tomato, and we named the closest to AtPHB3 as SlPHB3.1. Biochemical data showed that SlBRI1/SlSERK3A/SlSERK3B interacted with SlPHB3.1 and SlPHB3.3. The CRISPR-Cas9 method generated slphb3.1 mutant led to a BR signal stunted relatively in tomatoes. PHB3 is a new component of the BR signal pathway in both Arabidopsis and tomato.
