INTRODUCTION• Low soil temperature restricts the growth and
yield of plants.
• Growth reduction is accompanied by reduction of water uptake.
• not surprising that low temperature tolerance has been often correlated with drought resistance.
![Page 4: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Reduced water flux at low temperatures is thought to occur due to higher water viscosity and the inhibition of transmembrane water transport.
• The ability of plants to maintain the transmembrane waterflow may be among the key factors linked to chilling tolerance.

• Transmembrane water flow is regulated by aquaporins.
4 subfamilies:1. Plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIPs)2. Tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs)3. Nodulin-like intrinsic proteins (NIPs)4. Intrinsic proteins
![Page 7: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Problems:1. the effects of low temperature on aquaporin
expression are not always clear, with down-regulation of some aquaporins.
2. less is known about the effects of low temperature on aquaporin gating, which regulates water flux through protein conformational changes
![Page 8: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Regulation of aquaporins:1. Phosphorylation2. Dephosphorylation3. Cytoplasmic pH4. Divalent cations

• Use of Arabidopsis with overexpressed PIP1;4 and PIP2;5
• Subjected Arabidopsis roots to low temperature (10°C) whereas the shoots of plants were exposed to high transpirational demand conditions (23°C/21°C day/night temperatures).
• Used several inhibitors of protein phosphorylation and dephosphorylation
![Page 10: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
HYPOTHESES (1) the impact of low temperature on root water transport involves aquaporin gating through the phosphorylation/ dephosphorylation processes, and
(2) Overexpression of the low-temperature-responsive aquaporins PIP1;4 and PIP2;5 would help the plants maintain high Lp values and, in consequence, high growth rates when their roots are exposed to low temperature.

Effects of Ca(NO3)2, LaCl3, and Protein Phosphatase Inhibitors on Lp
• 1. 1 mM LaCl3 (calcium channel blocker) in the wild-type plants at 25°C resulted in an over 2-fold decrease in Lp
• The addition of 5 mM Ca(NO3)2at 25°C showed no effect on Lp
• 5 mM Ca(NO3)2 was added at 10°C, the value of Lp was increased almost to the same level as the one measured at 25°C
![Page 17: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
• 1 mM Na3VO4 and 75 mM okadaic acid increased Lp when added to roots at 10°C

Activation Energy for Root Water Transport
Activation energy (Ea) for Lp was 63 kJ mol21 in the wild-type plants (Table III). In both PIP overexpression plants, Ea values for Lp were below 10 kJ mol-1
![Page 19: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

![Page 20: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
• the reduction of Lp in the wild-type plants at 10°C was reversed to as much as 70% of the preexposure level by the addition of 5 mM Ca(NO3)2 and protein phosphatase inhibitors (75 nM okadaic acid and 1 mM Na3VO4),
• Okadaic acid and vanadate are commonly used as inhibitors of protein phosphorylation (Cohen and Cohen, 1989; Gordon, 1991).
![Page 21: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• calcium channel blocker,1 mM LaCl3, significantly inhibited Lp at 25°C, further supporting the notion that aquaporin gating is linkedto the calcium signal
• Some PIPS and tonoplast intrinsic preoteins are insensitive to mercury but many are blocked.
![Page 22: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
• Overexpression of aquaporins in plants alleviates the effect of mercury on Lp, likely because the inhibition of water transport by mercury is only partial and there are more water-transporting channels present in the PIP-overexpressing plants.
• PIP1;4 and PIP2;5 do not have Cys-189, which is known to be present in many mercury-sensitive aquaporins.
![Page 23: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
• In higher concentrations, mercury can also inhibit water transport by acting as a nonspecific metabolic inhibitor (Wan and Zwiazek, 1999; Zhang and Tyerman, 1999).
• the inhibition of Lp was less effective in Arabidopsis plants overexpressing PIP1;4 and PIP2;5 compared with the wild-type plants, reflecting the increased aquaporin abundance and the watertransporting functionality of both PIPs.
![Page 24: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
• wild-type plants demonstrate a high dependency of cell water transport on temperature in Arabidopsis roots.
• the 7- to 9-fold lower Ea values measured in PIP1;4 and PIP2;5 overexpression lines provide strong evidence for the importance of these proteins in cell water transport at low temperature.

CONCLUSION
![Page 27: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
• Overexpression of PIP1;4 and PIP2;5 in Arabidopsis was effective in alleviating the short-term effects of low root temperature on Lp in root cells.
• But alleviation was no longer present after 5 d of root exposure to 10°C in plants overexpressing PIP1;4
![Page 28: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
• The temperature sensitivity of cell water transport in Arabidopsis roots :
-the reductions in shoot and root growth rates in the wild-type and PIP1;4-overexpressing plants exposed to 10°C root temperature for 5 days.
• But no effects on PIP2;5
![Page 29: Overexpression of PI2:5 Aquaporin In Arabidopsis](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062418/555d3f61d8b42ad8698b53c5/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
• The inhibition of Lp by low temperature could be partially prevented by the application of Ca(NO3)2 and by protein phosphatase inhibitors
• low temperature sensitivity of root water transport may be connected to the aquaporin phosphorylation/dephosphorylation processes.
