Primary plant cell walls are composite extracellular structures composed of three major classes of polysaccharides (pectins, hemicelluloses, and cellulose) and of proteins. The cell wall proteins (CWPs) play multiple roles during plant development and in response to environmental stresses by remodeling the polysaccharide and protein networks and acting in signaling processes. To date, the cell wall proteome has been mostly described in flowering plants and has revealed the diversity of the CWP families. In this article, we describe the cell wall proteome of an early divergent plant, Marchantia polymorpha, a Bryophyte which belong to one of the first plant species colonizing lands. It has been possible to identify 410 different CWPs from three development stages of the haploid gametophyte and they could be classified in the same functional classes as the CWPs of flowering plants. This result underlied the ability of M. polymorpha to sustain cell wall dynamics. However, some specificities of the M. polymorpha cell wall proteome could be highlighted, in particular the importance of oxido-reductases such as class III peroxidases and polyphenol oxidases, D-mannose binding lectins, and dirigent-like proteins. These proteins families could be related to the presence of specific compounds in the M. polymorpha cell walls, like mannans or phenolics. This work paves the way for functional studies to unravel the role of CWPs during M. polymorpha development and in response to environmental cues.

Abstract Background Class III peroxidases (POD) proteins are widely present in the plant kingdom that are involved in a broad range of physiological processes including stress responses and lignin polymerization throughout the plant life cycle. At present, POD genes have been studied in Arabidopsis, rice, poplar, maize and Chinese pear, but there are no reports on the identification and function of POD gene family in Betula pendula. Results We identified 90 nonredundant POD genes in Betula pendula. (designated BpPODs). According to phylogenetic relationships, these POD genes were classified into 12 groups. The BpPODs are distributed in different numbers on the 14 chromosomes, and some BpPODs were located sequentially in tandem on chromosomes. In addition, we analyzed the conserved domains of BpPOD proteins and found that they contain highly conserved motifs. We also investigated their expression patterns in different tissues, the results showed that some BpPODs might play an important role in xylem, leaf, root and flower. Furthermore, under low temperature conditions, some BpPODs showed different expression patterns at different times. Conclusions The research on the structure and function of the POD genes in Betula pendula plays a very important role in understanding the growth and development process and the molecular mechanism of stress resistance. These results lay the theoretical foundation for the genetic improvement of Betula pendula.

Abstract Background: Class III peroxidases (POD) proteins are widely present in the plant kingdom that are involved in a broad range of physiological processes including stress responses and lignin polymerization throughout the plant life cycle. However, little is known about the POD genes in Betula pendula, although it has been characterized in Arabidopsis, rice, poplar, maize and Chinese pear. The POD genes remain to be determined in Betula pendula.Results: A total of 90 nonredundant POD genes were identified in Betula pendula. (designated BpPODs). These POD genes were divided into twelve groups based on their phylogenetic relationships. The BpPODs are unevenly distributed on the 14 chromosomes. In addition, some BpPODs were located sequentially in tandem on chromosomes, inferred that tandem duplication contributes to the expansion of the POD gene family in Betula pendula. Analysis of the distribution of conserved domains of BpPOD proteins showed that all these proteins contain highly conserved motifs. We also investigated their expression patterns in different tissues, the results show that some BpPODs might play significant roles in root, xylem, leaf and flower. Furthermore, under low temperature conditions, some BpPODs showed different expression patterns at different times. Conclusions: Comprehensive study of the POD genes suggests that their functional diversity during Betula pendula growth and development. Our findings provide a basis for further functional analysis on POD gene family in Betula pendula.

Paper deals with activities of Class III peroxidases (POX, EC 1.11.1.7) and Class I peroxidases (ascorbate peroxidase, APX, EC 1.11.1.11) as well as the Km of these enzymes for hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in the pepper leaves of different maturity. The obtained results suggest that the youngest pepper leaves compared to more mature ones have different strategies for H2O2 removal. There was an increase in APX activity with leaf maturity, while POX activity had the opposite trend, and its lowest activity was observed in the oldest leaves. The accumulation of reducing substrates i.e., ascorbate and total phenols was in positive correlation with corresponding enzymes following leaf maturity. The comparison of POX and APX affinity for H2O2 in pepper leaves of different maturity and their relationship between these enzymes' activities were showed.

Class III peroxidases (PRXs) are plant-specific enzymes and play important roles in plant growth, development and stress response. In this study, a total of 102 non-redundant PRX gene members (StPRXs) were identified in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). They were divided into 9 subfamilies based on phylogenetic analysis. The members of each subfamily were found to contain similar organizations of the exon/intron structures and protein motifs. The StPRX genes were not equally distributed among chromosomes. There were 57 gene pairs of segmental duplication and 26 gene pairs of tandem duplication. Expression pattern analysis based on the RNA-seq data of potato from public databases indicated that StPRX genes were expressed differently in various tissues and responded specifically to heat, salt and drought stresses. Most of the StPRX genes were expressed at significantly higher levels in root than in other tissues. In addition, real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis for 7 selected StPRX genes indicated that these genes displayed various expression levels under abiotic stresses. Our results provide valuable information for better understanding the evolution of StPRX gene family in potato and lay the vital foundation for further exploration of PRX gene function in plants.

Flooding induces low-oxygen environments (hypoxia or anoxia) that lead to energy disruption and an imbalance of reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and scavenging enzymes in plants. The influence of hypoxia on roots of hydroponically grown maize (Zea mays L.) plants was investigated. Gene expression (RNA Seq and RT-qPCR) and proteome (LC–MS/MS and 2D-PAGE) analyses were used to determine the alterations in soluble and membrane-bound class III peroxidases under hypoxia. Gel-free peroxidase analyses of plasma membrane-bound proteins showed an increased abundance of ZmPrx03, ZmPrx24, ZmPrx81, and ZmPr85 in stressed samples. Furthermore, RT-qPCR analyses of the corresponding peroxidase genes revealed an increased expression. These peroxidases could be separated with 2D-PAGE and identified by mass spectrometry. An increased abundance of ZmPrx03 and ZmPrx85 was determined. Further peroxidases were identified in detergent-insoluble membranes. Co-regulation with a respiratory burst oxidase homolog (Rboh) and key enzymes of the phenylpropanoid pathway indicates a function of the peroxidases in membrane protection, aerenchyma formation, and cell wall remodeling under hypoxia. This hypothesis was supported by the following: (i) an elevated level of hydrogen peroxide and aerenchyma formation; (ii) an increased guaiacol peroxidase activity in membrane fractions of stressed samples, whereas a decrease was observed in soluble fractions; and (iii) alterations in lignified cells, cellulose, and suberin in root cross-sections.
