Dynamical localization of a thylakoid membrane binding protein is required for acquisition of photosynthetic competency

Abstract: SUMMARYVipp1 is highly conserved and essential for photosynthesis, but its function is unclear as it does not participate directly in light-dependent reactions. We analyzed Vipp1 localization in live cyanobacterial cells and show that Vipp1 is highly dynamic, continuously exchanging between a diffuse fraction that is uniformly distributed throughout the cell and a punctate fraction that is concentrated at high curvature regions of the thylakoid located at the cell periphery. Experimentally perturbing the spati… Show more

“…6I-J). Thus, these in situ structures might correspond to the membrane-associated VIPP1 puncta previously observed by fluorescence microscopy (Bryan et al, 2014;Gutu et al, 2018). If these in situ structures are indeed VIPP1-coated membranes, their presence in the F4E and V11E strains (Figs.…”

“…One possibility is that VIPP1 oligomers actively work on stressed thylakoids to maintain their flat architecture. This idea is supported by fluorescence microscopy observations that VIPP1 puncta form at thylakoid membranes in response to high light (Bryan et al, 2014;Gutu et al, 2018). VIPP1 and PspA both have high affinity for anionic lipids (Kobayashi et al, 2007;Hennig et al, 2015;Theis et al, 2019) and can sense stored curvature elastic (SCE) stress, which bends the membrane and makes the bilayer more porous (McDonald et al, 2015).…”

“…Many functions have been assigned to VIPP proteins in various organisms that perform oxygenic photosynthesis. Generally, these functions can be grouped into two categories: (a) the biogenesis and repair of major protein complexes in thylakoid membranes (Aseeva et al, ; Fuhrmann, Gathmann, et al, ; Gao & Xu, ; Gutu et al, ; Kroll et al, ; Nordhues et al, ; Walter et al, ; Westphal et al, ; Zhang et al, ; Zhang & Sakamoto, ) and (b) coping with chloroplast membrane stress (Zhang et al, ; Zhang, Kondo, et al, ; Zhang, Kusaba, et al, ).…”

“…PspA and VIPP1 may also assemble into higher order oligomers in vivo, as both proteins form cellular puncta that can be seen by fluorescence microscopy (Engl et al, ). In cyanobacteria, VIPP1 punctae dynamically form at or near highly curved thylakoid membranes during discrete events of oligomerization and de‐oligomerization between the cytosolic and membrane‐bound forms of VIPP1, with high light (HL) intensities shifting the equilibrium towards the latter (Bryan et al, ; Gutu, Chang, & O'Shea, ). In chloroplasts, VIPP1 localizes close to envelope and thylakoid membranes in a variety of patterns, including dots, lines, forks, crosses, five‐point stars, and webs (Aseeva et al, ; Li et al, ; Nordhues et al, ; Zhang et al, ; Zhang, Kondo, Kamikubo, Kataoka, & Sakamoto, ).…”
