Wheat Tapub1 Regulates Cd Uptake And Tolerance By Promoting The Degradation Of Tairt1 And Taiaa17
JOURNAL OF AGRICULTURAL AND FOOD CHEMISTRY(2021)
摘要
Cadmium (Cd) accumulation in agricultural soils is an increasingly serious problem, as plants absorb Cd, which inhibits their growth and development. Nonetheless, the molecular mechanisms underlying Cd detoxification and accumulation in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) are unclear. Here, we isolated the U-box E3 ligase TaPUB1 from wheat and reported the functional characterization of TaPUB1 in Cd uptake and tolerance in wheat. Under Cd stress, TaPUB1 overexpression lines displayed higher photosynthetic rates than the wild type; opposite results were observed in the TaPUB1-RNAi lines. In addition, TaPUB1 overexpression lines showed reduced Cd uptake and accumulation, whereas RNAi plants exhibited a significant increase in Cd accumulation after Cd treatment. We further found that TaPUB1 enhanced the resistance of wheat to Cd stress in three ways. First, TaPUB1 interacts with and ubiquitinates TaIRT1, resulting in the inhibition of Cd uptake. Second, TaPUB1 interacts directly with and ubiquitinates TaIAA17, facilitates its degradation, and results in primary root elongation by activating the Aux signaling pathway under Cd stress. Moreover, TaPUB1 decreases ROS accumulation by regulating antioxidant-related gene expression and antioxidant enzyme activity under Cd stress. Thus, a molecular mechanism by which TaPUB1 regulates Cd uptake and tolerance by modulating the stability of TaIRT1 and TaIAA17 proteins was revealed.
