摘要:

钙依赖蛋白激酶(CPK)是一类响应钙信号的蛋白激酶,参与调节植物繁殖中钙信号和细胞骨架精密控制的花粉管极性生长。为揭示拟南芥CPK在花粉管极性生长中的功能,利用生物信息学方法分析CPK家族成员的表达模式和进化关系,构建持续激活(CA)和显性抑制(DN)型CPK17突变体。基于基因枪技术,观察CA-CPK17和DN-CPK17过表达花粉管的表型变化,比较高钙和低钙胁迫对CPK17和CA-CPK17过表达花粉管生长的影响,分析CPK17与同源蛋白CPK34的共同表达情况。另外预测CPK17的互作蛋白网络,并对部分互作蛋白进行验证。结果显示,拟南芥中有7个花粉特异表达的CPKs,其中CPK17和CPK34具有高度的相似性(93%),并在成熟花粉中高表达,在其他组织中低表达或不表达。过量表达CPK17对花粉管生长没有显著影响,而CA-CPK17则导致花粉管去极化生长和顶端肿胀,DN-CPK17无明显效果。过量表达CPK34也引起类似的花粉管生长缺陷,而同时过表达CPK17和CPK34则使缺陷加重。钙胁迫试验显示,CPK17过表达花粉管对低钙条件不敏感,而对高钙条件敏感。而缺乏调控域的CA-CPK17过表达花粉管对高钙和低钙条件均不敏感。预测的CPK17互作蛋白主要是ROP负调节因子,但酵母双杂交试验未能证实存在互作关系。这些结果表明,CPK17的C端调控域在钙信号的响应中起重要作用。CPK17和CPK34在花粉管生长中具有协同作用,可能通过调控钙离子的内流,进而影响胞内的钙离子梯度。

Abstract:

Calcium-dependent protein kinases(CPK)are a class of protein kinases that respond to calcium signals and participate in regulating the polar growth of pollen tubes,which is crucial for plant reproduction and is precisely controlled by calcium signals and the cytoskeleton.To reveal the function of CPK in the polar growth of pollen tubes in Arabidopsis,bioinformatics methods were used to analyze the expression patterns and evolutionary relationships of CPK family members,and constitutively active(CA)and dominant-negative(DN)CPK17 mutants were constructed.Based on gene gun technology,we observed the phenotypic changes of CA-CPK17 and DN-CPK17 overexpressing pollen tubes,compared the effects of high and low calcium stress on the growth of CPK17 and CA-CPK17 overexpressing pollen tubes,and analyzed the co-expression of CPK17 and its homologous protein CPK34.Additionally,the protein interaction network of CPK17 was predicted,and some of the interacting proteins were validated.The results showed that there were seven pollen-specifically expressed CPKs in Arabidopsis thaliana.Among them,CPK17 and CPK34 had a high similarity (93%),and were highly expressed in mature pollen,and low or no expression in other tissues.Overexpression of CPK17 had no significant effect on pollen tube growth,while CA-CPK17 caused depolarized growth and tip swelling of pollen tubes,and DN-CPK17 had no obvious effect.Overexpression of CPK34 also caused similar defects in pollen tube growth,and co-overexpression of CPK17 and CPK34 aggravated the defects.Calcium stress experiments showed that overexpressing CPK17 pollen tubes were insensitive to low calcium conditions,but sensitive to high calcium conditions.While pollen tubes overexpressing CA-CPK17(lacking the regulatory domain)were insensitive to both high and low calcium conditions.The predicted interacting proteins of CPK17 were mainly ROP negative regulators,but yeast two-hybrid experiments failed to confirm the interaction.These results indicated that the C-terminal regulatory domain of CPK17 plays an important role in the response to calcium signals.CPK17 and CPK34 have synergistic effects on pollen tube growth,possibly by regulating calcium influx and affecting intracellular calcium gradient.
