Abstract:

The caspase-like vacuolar processing enzyme (VPE) is a key factor in programmed cell death (PCD) associated with plant stress responses. Growth medium lacking a carbon source and dark conditions caused punctate labeling of 35S::VPE1-GFP (StVPE1-GFP) in potato leaves. Under conditions of carbon starvation, VPE activity and PCD symptoms strongly increased in BY-2 cells, but to a much lesser extent in VPE-RNAi BY-2 cells. During extended exposure to carbon starvation, VPE expression and activity levels peaked, with a gradual increase in BY-2 cell death. Histological analysis of StVPE1-GFP in BY-2 cells showed that carbon starvation induces its translocation from the endoplasmic reticulum to the central vacuole through tonoplast engulfment. Exposure of BY-2 culture to the macroautophagy/autophagy inhibitor concanamycin A led to, along with an accumulation of autophagic bodies, accumulation of StVPE1-GFP in the cell vacuole. This accumulation did not occur in the presence of 3-methyladenine, an inhibitor of early-stage autophagy. BY-2 cells constitutively expressing RFP-StATG8IL, an autophagosome marker, showed colocalization with the StVPE1-GFP protein in the cytoplasm and vacuole. RNAi silencing of the core autophagy component ATG4 in BY-2 cells reduced VPE activity and cell death. These results are the first to suggest that VPE translocates to the cell vacuole through the autophagy pathway, leading to PCD.
