Plastid proteins crucial for symbiotic fungal and bacterial entry into plant roots

Abstract: The roots of most higher plants form arbuscular mycorrhiza, an ancient, phosphate-acquiring symbiosis with fungi, whereas only four related plant orders are able to engage in the evolutionary younger nitrogen-fixing root-nodule symbiosis with bacteria. Plant symbioses with bacteria and fungi require a set of common signal transduction components that redirect root cell development. Here we present two highly homologous genes from Lotus japonicus, CASTOR and POLLUX, that are indispensable for microbial admissio… Show more

“…The putative cation channel DMI1 may have a direct role in calcium spiking, in that it could function as a calcium channel during both the calcium flux and calcium spiking. However, two proteins homologous to DMI1, CASTOR and POLLUX, have recently been identified in L. japonicus that are required for Nod factor signaling and show plastid localization (Imaizumi-Anraku et al, 2005). The plastid is an unlikely internal calcium store for calcium spiking, and, therefore, this localization suggests that this class of putative cation channels is not the calcium channel involved in calcium spiking.…”

“…The transcript abundance of this gene represents a useful indicator for the activity of Nod factor signal transduction, because mutations that block the Nod factorinduced signaling pathway in L. japonicus block NIN induction Imaizumi-Anraku et al, 2005;Miwa et al, 2006b;Marsh et al, 2007). NIN induction was observed in roots of wild-type plants and in the vector control line 24 and 48 h after Nod factor treatment (Fig.…”

“…The POLYUBIQUITIN gene was used as an internal positive control. Forward and reverse primers used were as follows: NIN, 59-CCAAGCAGCAGTGAATGAGA-39 and 59-AGG-AGCCCAAGTGAGTGCTA-39; LNP, 59-TTGGTGGGATATGGAATGGT-39 and 59-TGGCATTGGGTTTATTCACA-39; LNP2, 59-TGGGTCAAGCTTAA-ACGAATG-39 and 59-CCCTCCACCATTCCATATACC-39; POLYUBIQUITIN, 59-ATGCAGATCTTCGTCAAGACCTTGAC-39 and 59-ACCTCCCCTCAGA-CGAAGGA-39 (Imaizumi-Anraku et al, 2005). In order to avoid the amplification of the antisense LNP RNA when quantifying the transcript levels, LNP primers were designed using a 39 region that was absent from the 59D antisense vector.…”

“…The genetic requirements for rhizobial and arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal interactions in plants overlap in a common symbiosis pathway (CSP) that leads to successful root nodule (RN) and AM symbioses (21,24,46). Similarly, the negative control of the degree of nodulation and mycorrhization of roots is also regulated through a common signaling system, so-called autoregulation of nodulation (42).…”
