Title: Phytochromes: Where to Start?

Abstract

Phytochrome signaling allows plants to sense and respond to light through gene regulation. Ushijima et al. (2017) demonstrate a role for phytochromes in widespread regulation of alternative promoter usage, resulting in light-dependent protein isoforms with altered subcellular localization that help the plant respond metabolically to fluctuating light conditions.

Mesophyll-specific phytochromes impact chlorophyll light-harvesting complexes (LHCs) and non-photochemical quenching

Journal Article Oh, Sookyung ; Montgomery, Beronda L. - Plant Signaling & Behavior (Online)

Phytochromes regulate light-dependent plastid development and plant growth and development. Prior analyses demonstrated that phytochromes regulate expression of Sigma factor 2 (SIG2), which is involved in plastid transcription and coordinates expression of plastid- and nuclear-encoded genes involved in plastid development, as well as plant growth and development. Mutation of SIG2 impacts distinct aspects of photosynthesis, resulting in elevated levels of cyclic electron flow and nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ). As we initially identified SIG2 expression as misregulated in a line lacking phytochromes in mesophyll tissues (i.e., CAB3::pBVR lines), here we report on an investigation of whether photosynthetic parameters such as NPQ aremore »« less

Phytochrome from Green Plants: Properties and biological Function

Technical Report Quail, Peter H.

Plants constantly monitor the light environment for informational light signals used to direct adaptational responses to the prevailing conditions. One major such response, the Shade-Avaoidance Response (SAR), triggered when plants sense the presence of competing neighbors, results in enhanced channeling of photosynthetically-fixed carbon into stem elongation at the expense of deposition in reproductive tissues. This response has been selected against in many modern food crops to ensure maximum edible yield (e.g. seeds). Converse enhancement of the SAR, with consequent increased carbon channeling into vegetative cellulose, could contribute to the generation of crops with improved yield of tissues suitable for cellulosicmore »« less

Phytochrome-Dependent Regulation of ZFP6 and ZFPH Impacts Photomorphogenesis in Arabidopsis thaliana

Journal Article Cota-Ruiz, Keni ; Oh, Sookyung ; Montgomery, Beronda L. - Frontiers in Plant Science

Phytochromes (phy) are key regulators of photomorphogenesis in plants. Among the different phys characterized in higher plants (i.e., phyA to phyE), phyA and phyB primarily regulate phenotypic responses in plants under far-red (FR) and red (R) conditions, respectively. Recent findings suggest that some zinc finger proteins (ZFPs) are involved in plant light-modulated morphogenesis. However, the interaction(s) between phyA, phyB and ZFP homologs potentially involved in photomorphogenesis, as well as their phenotypic and molecular effects in Arabidopsis seedlings exposed to R and FR light remain to be elucidated fully. Prior analyses with phytochrome chromophore deficient lines indicated that ZFP6 expression ismore »« less

Marine algae and land plants share conserved phytochrome signaling systems

Journal Article Duanmu, Deqiang ; Bachy, Charles ; Sudek, Sebastian ; ... - Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America

Phytochrome photosensors control a vast gene network in streptophyte plants, acting as master regulators of diverse growth and developmental processes throughout the life cycle. In contrast with their absence in known chlorophyte algal genomes and most sequenced prasinophyte algal genomes, a phytochrome is found in Micromonas pusilla, a widely distributed marine picoprasinophyte (<2 µm cell diameter). Together with phytochromes identified from other prasinophyte lineages, we establish that prasinophyte and streptophyte phytochromes share core light-input and signaling-output domain architectures except for the loss of C-terminal response regulator receiver domains in the streptophyte phytochrome lineage. Phylogenetic reconstructions robustly support the presence ofmore »« less

Phytochrome-dependent coordinate control of distinct aspects of nuclear and plastid gene expression during anterograde signaling and photomorphogenesis

Journal Article Oh, Sookyung ; Montgomery, Beronda L. - Frontiers in Plant Science

Light perception by photoreceptors impacts plastid transcription, development, and differentiation. This photoreceptor-dependent activity suggests a mechanism for photoregulation of gene expression in the nucleus and plastid that serves to coordinate expression of critical genes of these two organelles. This coordinate expression is required for proper stoichiometric accumulation of components needed for assembly of plastids, photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes and components such as phytochromes. Chloroplast-targeted sigma factors, which function together with the plastid-encoded RNA polymerase to regulate expression of plastid-encoded genes, and nuclear-encoded plastid development factors, such as GLK1 and GLK2, are targets of phytochrome regulation. Such phytochrome-dependent functions are hypothesized tomore »« less
