CRISPR-Cas9 multiplex genome editing of the hydroxyproline-O-galactosyltransferase gene family alters arabinogalactan-protein glycosylation and function in Arabidopsis

Abstract: Background Arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) are a class of hydroxyproline-rich proteins (HRGPs) that are heavily glycosylated (> 90%) with type II arabinogalactans (AGs). AGPs are implicated in various plant growth and development processes including cell expansion, somatic embryogenesis, root and stem growth, salt tolerance, hormone signaling, male and female gametophyte development, and defense. To date, eight Hyp-O-galactosyltransferases (GALT2–6, HPGT1–3) have been identified; these enzym… Show more

“…Together with the lower glycosylation status of AGPs, the mutant displays reduced seedcoat cellulose content, swollen root-tip cells, and other root growth defects, e.g., inhibition of root growth, reduction of root hair length and density (Basu et al, 2015). Shorter roots were observed also in the quintuple mutant galt2 galt3 galt4 galt5 galt6, but surprisingly this mutant formed longer root hairs compared to wild type (Zhang et al, 2021). All these observations highlight the importance of O-glycosylation in cell growth and cell wall deposition (Basu et al, 2015;Showalter and Basu, 2016).…”

“…All AtGALTs are expressed in the seed coat during different stages of embryogenesis. Knocked out galt2 and galt5 mutants showed reduced seed coat mucilage, while galt4 and galt6 revealed a reduced seed set, pointing towards a probable function during seed development [ 168 , 169 , 242 ].…”

“…Hyp-O-GALT is responsible for the transfer of a Gal residue onto Hyp residues of AGPs. Eight Hyp-O-GALTs (i.e., GALT2-6 and HPGT1-3) in Arabidopsis have been characterized and catalyse the transfer of Gal onto Hyp residues [ 169 ]. The single mutants did not display any aberrant leaf phenotype, with the exception of the galt6 mutation that resulted in accelerated leaf senescence in Arabidopsis .…”

“…Whereas the hpgt1 hpgt2 hpgt3 triple mutant exhibited reductions in plant height, leaf size, seed set, silique length as well as an increase in root length. Moreover, Zhang et al (2021) utilized CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing/multiplexing approach to generate the quintuple mutant galt2 galt3 galt4 galt5 galt6 which exhibited reduced overall growth, impaired root growth, abnormal pollen, and reduced seed set with shorter siliques [35].…”
