Root branching toward water involves posttranslational modification of transcription factor ARF7

Abstract: Plants adapt to heterogeneous soil conditions by altering their root architecture. For example, roots branch when in contact with water by using the hydropatterning response. We report that hydropatterning is dependent on auxin response factor ARF7. This transcription factor induces asymmetric expression of its target gene LBD16 in lateral root founder cells. This differential expression pattern is regulated by posttranslational modification of ARF7 with the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) protein. SUMOyl… Show more

“…Accumulation of SUMOlyated ARF7 on this side of the root recruits the IAA3 repressor protein and blocks‐auxin responsive gene expression of genes involved in lateral root initiation. Non‐SUMOlyated ARF7 on the opposite side of the root is free to induce expression of ARF7 targets . Thus, multiple modifications of auxin signaling components (Table ) can modulate auxin responsiveness.…”

“…To date, genetic investigations of Aux/IAA genes have been hampered by the lack of obvious phenotype in the loss-of-function mutants (22). Nevertheless, recent careful characterization of a few of the mutants identified more precise functions in primary or LR development for IAA3 or IAA8 (23,24) or in the response to environmental stresses for IAA3, IAA5, IAA6 and IAA19 (25,26).…”
