AbstractInactivation of the phytohormone auxin plays important roles in plant development, and several enzymes have been implicated in auxin inactivation. In this study, we show that the predominant natural auxin, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), is mainly inactivated via the GH3-ILR1-DAO pathway. IAA is first converted to IAA-amino acid conjugates by GH3 IAA-amidosynthetases. The IAA-amino acid conjugates IAA-aspartate (IAA-Asp) and IAA-glutamate (IAA-Glu) are storage forms of IAA and can be converted back to IAA by ILR1/ILL amidohydrolases. We further show that DAO1 dioxygenase irreversibly oxidizes IAA-Asp and IAA-Glu into 2-oxindole-3-acetic acid-aspartate (oxIAA-Asp) and oxIAA-Glu, which are subsequently hydrolyzed by ILR1 to release inactive oxIAA. This work established a complete pathway for the oxidative inactivation of auxin and defines the roles played by auxin homeostasis in plant development.

ABSTRACTThe levels of the important plant growth regulator indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) are tightly controlled within plant tissues to spatiotemporally orchestrate concentration gradients that drive plant growth and development. Metabolic inactivation of bioactive IAA is known to participate in the modulation of IAA maxima and minima. IAA can be irreversibly inactivated by oxidation and conjugation to Aspartate and Glutamate. Usually overlooked because its reversible nature, the most abundant inactive IAA form is the IAA-glucose (IAA-glc) conjugate. Glycosylation of IAA is reported to be carried out by the UDP-glycosyltransferase 84B1 (UGT84B1), while UGT74D1 has been implicated in the glycosylation of the irreversibly formed IAA catabolite oxIAA. Here we demonstrate that both UGT84B1 and UGT74D1 modulate IAA levels throughout plant development by dual IAA and oxIAA glycosylation. Moreover, we identify a novel UGT subfamily whose members modulate IAA homeostasis during skotomorphogenesis by redundantly mediating the glycosylation of oxIAA.

The relative stabilities of IAA and IBA under various tissue culture procedures were determined. IBA was significantly more stable than IAA to autoclaving. IBA was also found to be more stable than IAA in liquid Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) under growth chamber conditions. The stabilities of IBA and IAA were similar in agar-solidified MS. Light provided by cool-white fluorescent bulbs promoted degradation of IAA and IBA in both liquid and agar media. Activated charcoal in concentrations as high as 5% was found to adsorb more than 97% of IAA and IBA in liquid MS. These results have important implications for the preparation, storage, and handling of IBA and IAA in plant tissue culture. Chemical names used: indole-3-acetic acid (IAA); indole-3-butyric acid (IBA).

The phytohormone auxin, specifically indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) plays a prominent role in plant development. Cellular auxin concentration is coordinately regulated by auxin synthesis, transport, and inactivation to maintain auxin homeostasis; however, the physiological contribution of auxin inactivation to auxin homeostasis has remained elusive. The GH3 genes encode auxin amino acid conjugating enzymes that perform a central role in auxin inactivation. The chemical inhibition of GH3s in planta is challenging because the inhibition of GH3 enzymes leads to IAA overaccumulation that rapidly induces GH3 expression. Here, we developed a potent GH3 inhibitor, designated as kakeimide (KKI), that selectively targets auxin-conjugating GH3s. Chemical knockdown of the auxin inactivation pathway demonstrates that auxin turnover is very rapid (about 10 min), indicating auxin biosynthesis and inactivation dynamically regulate auxin homeostasis.

Ovules of babaco [Carica pentagona (Heilborn) Badillo], 23 to 140 days old, were cultured to initiate regenerative callus. Callus developed from the integuments and possibly from the nucellus. Ovules of greater length and age produced more calli on White's medium or medium with half-strength MS salts than on full-strength MS. Ovules >60 days old that were chilled for 24 hours produced significantly more callus than fresh ovules <60 days old. Ovular calli of summer and fall fruits (73 to 90 days old) grown at 23 ± 2C under cool-white fluorescent lamps (16- or 18-hour photoperiod, 12 or 16 μmol·s-1·m-2) developed green areas that subsequently produced nodular structures. Nodular structures produced proembryonal structures that developed into mature somatic embryos when transferred to media containing either GA3 (0.1 mg·liter-1) plus activated charcoal (2.0 g·liter-1) or casein hydrolysate (200 mg·liter-1) plus IAA (0.5 mg·liter-1). Somatic embryos converted into plantlets when transferred to embryo conversion medium. Chemical names used: 1-H -indole-3-acetic acid (IAA); gibberellic acid (GA3).
