Abstrakt:
The phytohormone auxin is an important determinant of plant development. Directional auxin flow within
tissues depends on polar localization of PIN auxin transporters. To explore regulation of PIN-mediated auxin transport, we screened for suppressors of PIN1 overexpression (supo) and identified an inositol polyphosphate 1-phosphatase mutant (supo1), with elevated inositol trisphosphate (InsP3) and cytosolic
Ca2+ levels. Pharmacological and genetic increases in InsP3 or Ca2+ levels also suppressed the PIN1
gain-of-function phenotypes and caused defects in basal PIN localization, auxin transport and auxinmediated
development. In contrast, the reductions in InsP3 levels and Ca2+ signaling antagonized the effects of the supo1 mutation and disrupted preferentially apical PIN localization. InsP3 and Ca2+ are evolutionarily conserved second messengers involved in various cellular functions, particularly stress responses. Our findings implicate them as modifiers of cell polarity and polar auxin transport, and highlight a potential integration point through which Ca2+ signaling-related stimuli could influence auxin-mediated development.
