INFLORESCENCE DEFICIENT IN ABSCISSION (IDA) Peptide Signaling Coordinates Cell Separation and Immune Responses in Arabidopsis


核心概念
The IDA peptide signaling pathway regulates both developmental cell separation processes and immune responses in Arabidopsis, ensuring optimal protection of cells undergoing separation that are vulnerable to pathogen attack.
摘要

The content explores the role of the INFLORESCENCE DEFICIENT IN ABSCISSION (IDA) peptide signaling pathway in coordinating cell separation processes and immune responses in Arabidopsis. Key highlights:

  • IDA induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and an increase in cytosolic calcium (Ca2+) levels, which are signatures of early defense responses.
  • IDA also promotes the transcriptional upregulation of defense-associated genes, indicating its involvement in late immune responses.
  • The IDA-induced Ca2+ and ROS responses show both similarities and differences compared to the well-studied flg22-triggered immune responses, suggesting specific signaling components are involved.
  • IDA expression is upregulated by biotic (e.g., flg22, chitin) and abiotic (e.g., salt, osmotic stress) stimuli, indicating its role in coordinating cell separation and defense.
  • Co-treatment with IDA and the immune elicitor flg22 leads to a synergistic enhancement of defense gene expression, suggesting IDA helps amplify immune responses in cells undergoing separation.
  • The receptors HAE and HSL2 that mediate IDA signaling show overlapping expression with the immune receptor FLS2 in cells involved in cell separation processes, providing a potential mechanism for the coordination of development and defense.

The authors propose a model where IDA signaling ensures optimal immune responses in cells destined for separation, as these cells are major entry points for pathogens during the cell wall remodeling process.

統計資料
Transcripts of FRK1, MYB51, and PEP3 were significantly increased in Arabidopsis seedlings treated with 1 μM mIDA for 1 hour compared to untreated controls. Co-treatment with 1 μM mIDA and 1 μM flg22 for 1 hour led to a synergistic enhancement of FRK1, MYB51, and PEP3 transcription compared to treatment with either peptide alone.
引述
"IDA induces a release of cytosolic calcium ions (Ca2+) and apoplastic production of reactive oxygen species, which are signatures of early defense responses." "IDA promotes late defense responses by the transcriptional upregulation of genes known to be involved in immunity." "We propose a molecular mechanism by which IDA promotes signatures of an immune response in cells destined for separation to guard them from pathogen attack."

How do the specific signaling components downstream of IDA and flg22 receptors differ to result in the observed differences in Ca2+ dynamics and ROS production

The specific signaling components downstream of IDA and flg22 receptors differ in several ways, leading to the observed differences in Ca2+ dynamics and ROS production. Firstly, the receptors themselves, HAE and HSL2 for IDA, and FLS2 for flg22, have different extracellular domains that interact with their respective ligands. This initial interaction triggers a cascade of events that differ between the two pathways. For flg22, the binding to FLS2 leads to the dissociation of BIK1 from the receptor complex, activating downstream signaling molecules like RBOHD. On the other hand, IDA binding to HAE and HSL2 likely activates a different set of downstream signaling components, leading to the observed differences in Ca2+ dynamics and ROS production. Additionally, the spatial distribution of the receptors and their interactions with other proteins at the plasma membrane may also contribute to the differences in signaling outcomes between IDA and flg22 pathways.

What are the potential negative consequences of the enhanced immune responses triggered by IDA in cells undergoing separation, and how does the plant balance development and defense

The enhanced immune responses triggered by IDA in cells undergoing separation can have potential negative consequences if not properly regulated. One possible consequence is the diversion of resources and energy towards defense responses, which may compromise the normal developmental processes such as cell separation. This imbalance between development and defense could lead to delays or abnormalities in the cell separation process, impacting overall plant growth and reproduction. Additionally, the heightened immune responses in cells undergoing separation may trigger excessive production of ROS and other defense molecules, potentially causing cellular damage or stress. To balance development and defense, the plant must tightly regulate the timing and intensity of immune responses triggered by IDA to ensure that they do not interfere with essential developmental processes.

Could the coordination of IDA signaling with other developmental pathways, such as those involving auxin or ethylene, also contribute to the modulation of immune responses during cell separation events

The coordination of IDA signaling with other developmental pathways, such as those involving auxin or ethylene, could indeed contribute to the modulation of immune responses during cell separation events. Auxin and ethylene are known to play crucial roles in plant development and stress responses, including cell separation processes. By integrating the signaling pathways of IDA with auxin and ethylene pathways, the plant can fine-tune the immune responses in cells undergoing separation based on the developmental stage and environmental cues. For example, auxin signaling may regulate the expression of defense genes in response to IDA, while ethylene signaling could modulate the production of ROS and other defense molecules. This cross-talk between IDA signaling and other developmental pathways allows the plant to adapt its immune responses to the specific needs of cells undergoing separation, ensuring both effective defense and successful development.
