    Quantitative extracellular matrix proteomics suggests cell wall reprogramming in host-specific immunity during vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum in chickpea

    Extracellular matrix (ECM) is the unique organelle that perceives stress signals and reprograms molecular events of host cell during patho-stress. However, our understanding of how ECM dictates plant immunity is largely unknown. Vascular wilt caused by the soil borne filamentous fungus Fusarium oxysporum is a major impediment for global crop productivity. To elucidate the role of ECM proteins and molecular mechanism associated with cell wall mediated immunity, the temporal changes of ECM proteome was studied in vascular wilt resistant chickpea cultivar upon F. oxysporum infection. The 2-DE protein profiling coupled with mass spectrometric analysis identified 166 immune responsive proteins (IRPs) involved in variety of functions. Our data suggest that wall remodeling; protein translocation, stabilization and chitin triggered immunity; extracellular ATP signaling are major players in early, middle and later phases of ECM signaling during fungal attack. Furthermore, we interrogated the proteome data using network analysis that identified modules enriched in known and novel immunity-related prognostic proteins centered around nascent aminopolypeptide complex (NAC), amine oxidase, thioredoxin and chaperonin. This study for the first time provides an insight into the complex network operating in the ECM and impinges on the surveillance mechanism of innate immunity during patho-stress in crop plant.

    Proteometabolomic analysis of transgenic tomato overexpressing oxalate decarboxylase uncovers novel proteins potentially involved in defense mechanism against Sclerotinia
    (Elsevier B.V., 2016) Ghosh, Sudip; Narula, Kanika; Sinha, Arunima; Ghosh, Rajgourab; Jawa, Priyanka; Chakraborty, Niranjan; Chakraborty, Subhra
    Oxalic acid (OA) plays dual role in fungal pathogenicity in a concentration dependent manner. While at higher concentration it induces programmed cell death leading to fungal invasion, low oxalate build resistance in plant. Although OA has been identified as a virulence determinant for rot disease caused by Sclerotinia sp., our understanding of how oxalate downregulation impart host immunity is limited. We have earlier shown that ectopic expression of oxalate decarboxylase (FvOXDC) specifically degrades OA in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum). To elucidate low oxalate regulated molecular mechanism imparting immunity, a comparative proteomics approach has been applied to E8.2-OXDC tomato fruit displaying fungal resistance. Mass spectrometric analyses identified 92 OXDC-responsive immunity related protein spots (ORIRPs) presumably associated with acid metabolism, defense signaling and endoplasmic reticulum stress. Metabolome study indicated increased abundance of some of the organic acids paralleling the proteomic analysis. Further, we interrogated the proteome data using network analysis that identified modules enriched in known and novel immunity-related prognostic proteins centered around 14-3-3, translationally controlled tumor protein, annexin and chaperonin. Taken together, our data demonstrate that low oxalate may act as metabolic and immunity determinant through translational reprogramming.
