Untreated and Se-enriched apple leaves (Malus domestica Borkh. cv. 'Red Fuji') were used as the experimental materials. Proteomes of the differentially prepared tissues were compared through two-dimensional electrophoresis analysis and mass spectrum identification. There were 505 more protein spots in the proteome of the Se-enriched leaves than in the control leaves. Forty-seven protein spots were significantly differentially expressed (P < 0.05), among those, 32 protein spots were up-regulated while 12 protein points were down-regulated, and three new protein spots were found with the relative molecular masses of 31, 29, 26 kDa. Twenty-three protein spots with good shape and significant expression were selected for mass spectrometry analysis. These spots were excised from the gel and analyzed by a matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF-MS). Peptide mass fingerprints (PMF) of all the proteins were submitted to NCBInr for protein identification, and 10 differential proteins were positively identified. Biological information of the identified proteins was found via http://www.uniprot.org/. There were three (1475, 1479, 1527) ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase large subunits (Rubisco), two ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylases (346, 486) belonging to the Rubisco large chain family, one photosystem I reaction center subunit II (297), one chloroplast oxygen-evolving enhancer protein 1 (619), one 0s12g0127100 protein whose function was unknown (927), one monodehydroascorbate reductase (1451), and one polyphenol oxidase V (1596). The major subcellular location for these proteins was the chloroplast, and they play important roles in photosynthesis and stress resistance for plants. (c) 2013 Elsevier Masson SAS.

The TT2-type MYB transcription factor JrMYB12 positively regulates proanthocyanidin biosynthesis in red walnut

Wei Zhao, Wenjiang Wu, Yonghui Liu, Lu Fan, Haijun Meng, Lei Wang, Guoliang Wu

Summary: A MYB transcription factor, JrMYB12, was identified as a positive regulator of proanthocyanidins (PAs) accumulation in red walnut. JrMYB12 interacted with JrbHLH42 protein and enhanced the promoter activity of PA biosynthesis structural genes JrLAR and JrANR. These findings provide important insights into manipulating PA accumulation in walnut and other plants.

CmCML11 interacts with CmCAMTA5 to enhance γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) accumulation by regulating GABA shunt in fresh-cut cantaloupe

Wanli You, Jinglin Zhang, Xueyin Ru, Feng Xu, Zhengguo Wu, Peng Jin, Yonghua Zheng, Shifeng Cao

Summary: This study investigated the effect of calcium chloride (CaCl2) treatment on GABA accumulation in fresh-cut cantaloupe and the underlying mechanisms. The results showed that CaCl2 treatment increased GABA content and the activities of GAD and SSADH enzymes, while reducing glutamate content and GABA-T activity. Additionally, CaCl2 treatment upregulated the expressions of CmCML11 and CmCAMTA5, as well as several GABA shunt genes, through the transcriptional activation by CmCAMTA5. Furthermore, the interaction between CmCML11 and CmCAMTA5 enhanced the transcriptional activation of GABA shunt genes. Overall, this study reveals that CaCl2 treatment promotes GABA accumulation in fresh-cut cantaloupe through the combined effect of CmCML11 and CmCAMTA5 in regulating the expressions of GABA shunt genes.

Integrated physiological, biochemical, and transcriptomics analyses reveal the underlying mechanisms of high nitrogen use efficiency of black sesame

Min Wang, Yupeng Wang, Xiaohui Wang, Guangwei Wei, Huiyi Yang, Xi Yang, Tinghai Shen, Huijie Qu, Sheng Fang, Ziming Wu

Summary: This study identified the high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) black sesame variety 17-156 and analyzed its underlying physiological and molecular mechanisms. The results showed that 17-156 possesses a sophisticated nitrogen metabolizing machinery to uptake and assimilate higher quantities of inorganic nitrogen, simultaneously improving carbon metabolism and growth. Many important genes were up-regulated in 17-156 under high nitrogen condition. Additionally, 38 potential candidate genes were identified for future studies to improve sesame's NUE. These findings provide valuable resources for understanding the regulatory network of nitrogen metabolism and developing sesame cultivars with improved NUE.

Selenite reduced cadmium uptake, interfered signal transduction of endogenous phytohormones, and stimulated secretion of tartaric acid based on a combined analysis of non-invasive micro-test technique, transcriptome and metabolome

Kongyuan Wu, Lizhen Wang, Zihan Wu, Ziqing Liu, Zengfei Li, Jun Shen, Shengjie Shi, Hong Liu, Christopher Rensing, Renwei Feng

Summary: Selenium (Se) can reduce uptake and translocation of cadmium (Cd) in plants by regulating root morphology. This study investigated the effects of Se(IV) on root exudates, root morphology, root endogenous hormones, and Cd uptake efficiency in rice under Cd stress. The results showed that Se(IV) significantly reduced Cd concentrations in shoots and roots, and decreased Cd uptake efficiency via root hairs. Se(IV) also affected root morphology, root exudates, and the synthesis of hormones like IAA and JA. However, transcriptome analysis revealed no upregulated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in IAA synthesis.
