AbstractAbiotic stresses including drought, salinity, extreme temperatures, chemical toxicity and oxidative are the natural status of the environment to exert serious threats to agriculture. Abiotic stress-related microRNAs (ASmiRNAs) are a group of microRNAs (miRNAs) regulating stress responses in plants. However, the systematic investigation of ASmiRNAs is limited in Rice (O. sativa), a typical abiotic stress-resistant crop species. In the present work, we systematically investigated ASmiRNAs in silico. First, we identified 177 putative ASmiRNAs in O.sativa. Second, we found most ASmiRNAs were driven by TATA-promoter and most stress-related miRNA promoter regions contained the stress-related elements. Third, we found many ASmiRNAs families were species/family specific and a set of miRNAs might derive from genomic repeat-sequences in O. sativa. Finally, we found the ASmiRNAs in O. sativa target 289 genes with 1050 predicted target sites in which 98% sites have cleavage activity and 2% sites have translation inhibition activity. In conclusion, our findings provide an insight into both the function and evolution of ASmiRNAs and improve our understanding on the mechanism of abiotic stress resistance in O. sativa.

Brassica napus and its diploid progenitors (B. rapa and B. oleracea) are suitable for studying the problems associated with polyploidization. As an important anti-stress protein, RCI2 proteins widely exist in various tissues of plants, and are crucial to plant growth, development, and stress response. In this study, the RCI2 gene family was comprehensively identified and analyzed, and 9, 9, and 24 RCI2 genes were identified in B. rapa, B. oleracea, and B. napus, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that all of the identified RCI2 genes were divided into two groups, and further divided into three subgroups. Ka/Ks analysis showed that most of the identified RCI2 genes underwent a purifying selection after the duplication events. Moreover, gene structure analysis showed that the structure of RCI2 genes is largely conserved during polyploidization. The promoters of the RCI2 genes in B. napus contained more cis-acting elements, which were mainly involved in plant development and growth, plant hormone response, and stress responses. Thus, B. napus might have potential advantages in some biological aspects. In addition, the changes of RCI2 genes during polyploidization were also discussed from the aspects of gene number, gene structure, gene relative location, and gene expression, which can provide reference for future polyploidization analysis.

<p>Small Ubiquitin-related MOdifier (SUMO) proteins can be found in many organisms, including <em>A. thaliana</em>, which possesses 9 SUMO genes. SUMO binds to various target proteins in a reversible reaction called SUMOylation. SUMOylation participates in transcription, chromosome organization, proteins localizations and stress responses. Our study showed that RIN13 (<span style="text-decoration: underline;">R</span>PM1-<span style="text-decoration: underline;">In</span>teracting<span style="text-decoration: underline;">13</span>/At2g20310) is a target of SUMOylation, which was initially found by interaction between this protein and AtSCE1a (E2). Recent report showed that overexpression of RIN13 enhanced the resistance to pathogen without inducing hypersensitive response. However, the molecular interaction between RIN13 and SUMO proteins and its significance have not been studied yet. Thus, our study aimed to characterize the interaction between RIN13 and SUMO proteins in <em>A. thaliana</em>. The result showed an isoform-specific SUMOylation between RIN13 and SUMO proteins. RIN13 is SUMOylated by SUMO1, 2, 3, and 5. Though expressed ubiquitously in <em>A.thaliana</em>, fluorescence microscopy showed that RIN13 localizes subcellularly in the nuclear body. Moreover, complete abolishment of SUMOylation with inactive E2 suggests the exclusion of RIN13 from nuclear body. These results showed that SUMOylation affected RIN13 localization, and indirectly influenced its interaction to other proteins and putative function. This paper presents evidence of RIN13 SUMOylation. Furthermore, RIN13 function in pathogenic resistance is shown to be supported by SUMOylation. Thus, this study enhanced the understanding of SUMO in plants and served as reference to molecular studies concerning post-translational modification of SUMO.</p>

Abstract Background: WRKY transcription factors are a superfamily of regulators involved in diverse biological processes and stress responses in plants. However, knowledge is limited for WRKY family in camelina (Camelina sativa), an important Brassicaceae oil crop with strong tolerance against various stresses. Here, genome-wide characterization of WRKY proteins is performed to examine their gene-structures, phylogenetics, expressions, conserved motif organizations, and functional annotation to identify candidate WRKYs mediating regulation of stress resistance in camelina.Results: Total of 242 CsWRKY proteins encoded by 224 gene loci distributed uneven on chromosomes were identified, and classified into three groups via phylogenetic analysis according to their WRKY domains and zinc finger motifs. 15 CsWRKY gene loci generated 33 spliced variants. Orthologous WRKY gene pairs were identified, with 173 pairs in C. sativa and Arabidopsis genomes as well as 282 pairs for C. sativa and B. napus, respectively. 137 segmental duplication events were observed but no tandem duplication in camelina genome. Ten major conserved motifs were examined, with WRKYGQK as the most conserved and several variants existed in many CsWRKYs. Expression analysis revealed that half more CsWRKY genes were expressed constitutively, and a set of them had a tissue-specific expression. Notably, 11 CsWRKY genes exhibited significantly expression changes in plant seedlings under cold, salt, and drought stress, respectively, having preferentially inducible expression pattern in response to the stress.Conclusions: The present described a detail analysis of CsWRKY gen family and their expression profiled in twelve tissues and under several stress conditions. Segmental duplication is the major force for large expansion of this gene family, and a strong purifying pressure happened for CsWRKY proteins evolutionally. CsWRKY proteins play important roles for plant development, with differential functions in different tissues. Exceptionally, eleven CsWRKYs, particularly five alternative spliced isoforms were found to be the key players possibly in mediating plant response to various stresses. Overall, our results provide a foundation for understanding roles of CsWRKYs and the precise mechanism through which CsWRKYs regulate high stress resistance to stress as well as development of stress tolerance cultivars for Cruciferae crops.

Small RNAs (sRNAs) regulate gene expression in diverse bacteria by interacting with mRNAs to change their structure, stability, or translation. Hundreds of sRNAs have been identified in bacteria, but characterization of their regulatory functions is limited by difficulty with sensitive and accurate identification of mRNA targets. Thus, new robust methods of bacterial sRNA target identification are in demand. Here, we describe our small RNA target prediction organizing tool (SPOT), which streamlines the process of sRNA target prediction by providing a single pipeline that combines available computational prediction tools with customizable results filtering based on experimental data. SPOT allows the user to rapidly produce a prioritized list of predicted sRNA-target mRNA interactions that serves as a basis for further experimental characterization. This tool will facilitate elucidation of sRNA regulons in bacteria, allowing new discoveries regarding the roles of sRNAs in bacterial stress responses and metabolic regulation.
