Aluminum-Dependent Root-Growth Inhibition in Arabidopsis Results from AtATR-Regulated Cell-Cycle Arrest
چکیده انگلیسی

SummaryAluminum (Al) toxicity is a global problem severely limiting agricultural productivity in acid-soil regions comprising upwards of 50% of the world's arable land 1 and 2. Although Al-exclusion mechanisms have been intensively studied 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, little is known about tolerance to internalized Al, which is predicted to be mechanistically complex because of the plethora of predicted cellular targets for Al3+2 and 10. An Arabidopsis mutant with Al hypersensitivity, als3-1, was found to represent a lesion in a phloem and root-tip-localized factor similar to the bacterial ABC transporter ybbm, with ALS3 likely responsible for Al transfer from roots to less-sensitive tissues 10, 11 and 12. To identify mutations that enhance mechanisms of Al resistance or tolerance, a suppressor screen for mutants that mask the Al hypersensitivity of als3-1 was performed [13]. Two allelic suppressors conferring increased Al tolerance were found to represent dominant-negative mutations in a factor required for monitoring DNA integrity, AtATR 14, 15, 16 and 17. From this work, Al-dependent root-growth inhibition primarily arises from DNA damage coupled with AtATR-controlled blockage of cell-cycle progression and terminal differentiation because of loss of the root-quiescent center, with mutations that prevent response to this damage resulting in quiescent-center maintenance and sustained vigorous growth in an Al-toxic environment.
