First Plant Cell Atlas symposium report

The Plant Cell Atlas (PCA) community hosted a virtual symposium on December 9 and 10, 2021 on single cell and spatial omics technologies. The conference gathered almost 500 academic, industry, and government leaders to identify the needs and directions of the PCA community and to explore how establishing a data synthesis center would address these needs and accelerate progress. This report details the presentations and discussions focused on the possibility of a data synthesis center for a PCA and the expected impacts of such a center on advancing science and technology globally. Community discussions focused on topics such as data analysis tools and annotation standards; computational expertise and cyber-infrastructure; modes of community organization and engagement; methods for ensuring a broad reach in the PCA community; recruitment, training, and nurturing of new talent; and the overall impact of the PCA initiative. These targeted discussions facilitated dialogue among the participants to gauge whether PCA might be a vehicle for formulating a data synthesis center. The conversations also explored how online tools can be leveraged to help broaden the reach of the PCA (i.e., online contests, virtual networking, and social media stakeholder engagement) and decrease costs of conducting research (e.g., virtual REU opportunities). Major recommendations for the future of the PCA included establishing standards, creating dashboards for easy and intuitive access to data, and engaging with a broad community of stakeholders. The discussions also identified the following as being essential to the PCA's success: identifying homologous cell-type markers and their biocuration, publishing datasets and computational pipelines, utilizing online tools for communication (such as Slack), and user-friendly data visualization and data sharing. In conclusion, the development of a data synthesis center will help the PCA community achieve these goals by providing a centralized repository for existing and new data, a platform for sharing tools, and new analytical approaches through collaborative, multidisciplinary efforts. A data synthesis center will help the PCA reach milestones, such as community-supported data evaluation metrics, accelerating plant research necessary for human and environmental health.

Striking luminescence phenomena of carbon dots and their applications as a double ratiometric fluorescence probes for H2S detection

Here, we report some new observations on the luminescence of carbon dots (CDs) that are passivated with polyethylene glycol, and explored them, for the first time, as highly sensitive H2S detection probe. The as-prepared CDs have an ultraviolet (UV) emission at 350 nm and a green emission at 540 nm when excited at 270 nm, but they have only a green emission at 523 nm when excited at 365 nm. As Na2S is added to the CDs, the UV emission decreases gradually, while the green emission increases slightly, and interestingly a new emission appears at 455 nm is increased linearly in intensity with the increase of Na2S concentration. The blue emission at 455 nm is from the intrinsic core of CDs, and the green emissions at 540 or 523 nm are from their surface states, while the UV emission at 350 nm is from the anchored PEG. Both the emission intensity ratios of F-450/F-350 and F-455/F-523 show an excellent linear relationship with the Na2S concentration in the range of 0-800 mu M, and the detection limit estimated from both of them is approximately 7.0 nM, indicating our method is the most sensitive H2S CDs based detection method reported thus far. Furthermore, the detection was tested successfully for H2S imaging in live cells. We propose that the interactions of H2S with the CDs and the anchored ligands, as well as the energy transfer between the ligands and the CDs, are responsible for the luminescence responses for H2S detection. Our studies enrich the world of carbon dots with plenty of potential applications. (C) 2020 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Regulation of Absorption and Emission in a Protein/Fluorophore Complex

Human cellular retinol binding protein II (hCRBPII) was used as a protein engineering platform to rationally regulate absorptive and emissive properties of a covalently bound fluorogenic dye. We demonstrate the binding of a thio-dapoxyl analog via formation of a protonated imine between an active site lysine residue and the chromophore’s aldehyde. Rational manipulation of the electrostatics of the binding pocket results in a 204 nm shift in absorption and a 131 nm shift in emission. The protein is readily expressed in mammalian systems and binds with exogenously delivered fluorophore as demonstrated by live-cell imaging experiments.

Highly Bright and Photostable Two-Dimensional Nanomaterials Assembled from Sequence-Defined Peptoids

Free-standing two-dimensional (2D) organic nanomaterials are highly attractive for biological applications because of their unique structural properties and high biocompatibility. Herein, we designed and synthesized a new class of highly bright and photostable membrane-mimetic 2D nanosheets from sequence-defined peptoids. These nanosheets exhibited the high quantum yield and photostability as a result of the precise placement and ordering of dansyl dye molecules within crystalline nanosheets. We further showed the use of these nanosheets as biocompatible and programmable probes for live cell imaging and cell labeling. Furthermore, by programing these nanosheets with different surface charges, we achieved the enhanced lysosome escape of these nanosheets, showing their great potential as nanocarriers for the efficient intracellular delivery of macromolecular drugs.

Biased localization of actin binding proteins by actin filament conformation

The assembly of actin filaments into distinct cytoskeletal structures plays a critical role in cell physiology, but how proteins localize differentially to these structures within a shared cytoplasm remains unclear. Here, we show that the actin-binding domains of accessory proteins can be sensitive to filament conformational changes. Using a combination of live cell imaging and in vitro single molecule binding measurements, we show that tandem calponin homology domains (CH1–CH2) can be mutated to preferentially bind actin networks at the front or rear of motile cells. We demonstrate that the binding kinetics of CH1–CH2 domain mutants varies as actin filament conformation is altered by perturbations that include stabilizing drugs and other binding proteins. These findings suggest that conformational changes of actin filaments in cells could help to direct accessory binding proteins to different actin cytoskeletal structures through a biophysical feedback loop.

Induced nanoscale membrane curvature bypasses the essential endocytic function of clathrin

During clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME), flat plasma membrane is remodeled to produce nanometer-scale vesicles. The mechanisms underlying this remodeling are not completely understood. The ability of clathrin to bind membranes of distinct geometries casts uncertainty on its specific role in curvature generation/stabilization. Here, we used nanopatterning to produce substrates for live-cell imaging, with U-shaped features that bend the ventral plasma membrane of a cell into shapes resembling energetically unfavorable CME intermediates. This induced membrane curvature recruits CME proteins, promoting endocytosis. Upon AP2, FCHo1/2, or clathrin knockdown, CME on flat substrates is severely diminished. However, induced membrane curvature recruits CME proteins in the absence of FCHo1/2 or clathrin and rescues CME dynamics/cargo uptake after clathrin (but not AP2 or FCHo1/2) knockdown. Induced membrane curvature enhances CME protein recruitment upon branched actin assembly inhibition under elevated membrane tension. These data establish that membrane curvature assists in CME nucleation and that the essential function of clathrin during CME is to facilitate curvature evolution, rather than scaffold protein recruitment.

Genetically manipulated chloroplast stromal phosphate levels alter photosynthetic efficiency

Abstract The concentration of inorganic phosphate (Pi) in the chloroplast stroma must be maintained within narrow limits to sustain photosynthesis and to direct the partitioning of fixed carbon. However, it is unknown if these limits or the underlying contributions of different chloroplastic Pi transporters vary throughout the photoperiod or between chloroplasts in different leaf tissues. To address these questions, we applied live Pi imaging to Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) wild-type plants and 2 loss-of-function transporter mutants: triose phosphate/phosphate translocator (tpt), phosphate transporter 2;1 (pht2;1), and tpt pht2;1. Our analyses revealed that stromal Pi varies spatially and temporally, and that TPT and PHT2;1 contribute to Pi import with overlapping tissue specificities. Further, the series of progressively diminished steady-state stromal Pi levels in these mutants provided the means to examine the effects of Pi on photosynthetic efficiency without imposing nutritional deprivation. ΦPSII and nonphotochemical quenching (NPQ) correlated with stromal Pi levels. However, the proton efflux activity of the ATP synthase (gH+) and the thylakoid proton motive force (pmf) were unaltered under growth conditions, but were suppressed transiently after a dark to light transition with return to wild-type levels within 2 min. These results argue against a simple substrate-level limitation of ATP synthase by depletion of stromal Pi, favoring more integrated regulatory models, which include rapid acclimation of thylakoid ATP synthase activity to reduced Pi levels.

A genetically encoded biosensor reveals spatiotemporal variation in cellular phosphate content in Brachypodium distachyon mycorrhizal roots

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis is accompanied by alterations to root cell metabolism and physiology, and to the pathways of orthophosphate (Pi) entry into the root, which increase with Pi delivery to cortical cells via arbuscules. How AM symbiosis influences the Pi content and Pi response dynamics of cells in the root cortex and epidermis is unknown. Using fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based Pi biosensors, here we mapped the relative cytosolic and plastidic Pi content of Brachypodium distachyon mycorrhizal root cells, analyzed responses to extracellular Pi and traced extraradical hyphae-mediated Pi transfer to colonized cells. Colonized cortical cells had a higher cytosolic Pi content relative to noncolonized cortical and epidermal cells, while plastidic Pi content was highest in cells at the infection front. Pi application to the entire mycorrhizal root resulted in transient changes in cytosolic Pi that differed in direction and magnitude depending on cell type and arbuscule status; cells with mature arbuscules showed a substantial transient increase in cytosolic Pi while those with collapsed arbuscules showed a decrease. Directed Pi application to extraradical hyphae resulted in measurable changes in cytosolic Pi of colonized cells 18 h after application. Our experiments reveal that cells within a mycorrhizal root vary in Pi content and Pi response dynamics.

CALCIUM‐DEPENDENT PROTEIN KINASE32 regulates cellulose biosynthesis through post‐translational modification of cellulose synthase

Summary Cellulose is an essential component of plant cell walls and an economically important source of food, paper, textiles, and biofuel. Despite its economic and biological significance, the regulation of cellulose biosynthesis is poorly understood. Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of cellulose synthases (CESAs) were shown to impact the direction and velocity of cellulose synthase complexes (CSCs). However, the protein kinases that phosphorylate CESAs are largely unknown. We conducted research in Arabidopsis thaliana to reveal protein kinases that phosphorylate CESAs. In this study, we used yeast two‐hybrid, protein biochemistry, genetics, and live‐cell imaging to reveal the role of calcium‐dependent protein kinase32 (CPK32) in the regulation of cellulose biosynthesis in A. thaliana . We identified CPK32 using CESA3 as a bait in a yeast two‐hybrid assay. We showed that CPK32 phosphorylates CESA3 while it interacts with both CESA1 and CESA3. Overexpressing functionally defective CPK32 variant and phospho‐dead mutation of CESA3 led to decreased motility of CSCs and reduced crystalline cellulose content in etiolated seedlings. Deregulation of CPKs impacted the stability of CSCs. We uncovered a new function of CPKs that regulates cellulose biosynthesis and a novel mechanism by which phosphorylation regulates the stability of CSCs.

Design, characterization, and intracellular trafficking of biofunctionalized chitosan nanomicelles

The hydrophobically modified glycol chitosan (HGC) nanomicelle has received increasing attention as a promising platform for the delivery of chemotherapeutic drugs. To improve the tumor selectivity of HGC, here an avidin and biotin functionalization strategy was applied. The hydrodynamic diameter of the biotin-avidin-functionalized HGC (cy5.5-HGC-B4F) was observed to be 104.7 nm, and the surface charge was +3.1 mV. Confocal and structured illumination microscopy showed that at 0.1 mg/ml, cy5.5-HGC-B4F nanomicelles were distributed throughout the cytoplasm of MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells after 2 h of exposure without significant cytotoxicity. To better understand the intracellular fate of the nanomicelles, entrapment studies were performed and demonstrated that some cy5.5-HGC-B4F nanomicelles were capable of escaping endocytic vesicles, likely via the proton sponge effect. Quantitative analysis of the movements of endosomes in living cells revealed that the addition of HGC greatly enhanced the motility of endosomal compartments, and the nanomicelles were transported by early and late endosomes from cell periphery to the perinuclear region. Our results validate the importance of using live-cell imaging to quantitatively assess the dynamics and mechanisms underlying the complex endocytic pathways of nanosized drug carriers.

Thioredoxin VdTrx1, an unconventional secreted protein, is a virulence factor in Verticillium dahliae

Understanding how plant pathogenic fungi adapt to their hosts is of critical importance to securing optimal crop productivity. In response to pathogenic attack, plants produce reactive oxygen species (ROS) as part of a multipronged defense response. Pathogens, in turn, have evolved ROS scavenging mechanisms to undermine host defense. Thioredoxins (Trx) are highly conserved oxidoreductase enzymes with a dithiol-disulfide active site, and function as antioxidants to protect cells against free radicals, such as ROS. However, the roles of thioredoxins in Verticillium dahliae , an important vascular pathogen, are not clear. Through proteomics analyses, we identified a putative thioredoxin (VdTrx1) lacking a signal peptide. VdTrx1 was present in the exoproteome of V. dahliae cultured in the presence of host tissues, a finding that suggested that it plays a role in host-pathogen interactions. We constructed a VdTrx1 deletion mutant Δ VdTrx1 that exhibited significantly higher sensitivity to ROS stress, H 2 O 2 , and tert -butyl hydroperoxide ( t -BOOH). In vivo assays by live-cell imaging and in vitro assays by western blotting revealed that while VdTrx1 lacking the signal peptide can be localized within V. dahliae cells, VdTrx1 can also be secreted unconventionally depending on VdVps36, a member of the ESCRT-II protein complex. The Δ VdTrx1 strain was unable to scavenge host-generated extracellular ROS fully during host invasion. Deletion of VdTrx1 resulted in higher intracellular ROS levels of V. dahliae mycelium, displayed impaired conidial production, and showed significantly reduced virulence on Gossypium hirsutum , and model plants, Arabidopsis thaliana and Nicotiana benthamiana . Thus, we conclude that VdTrx1 acts as a virulence factor in V. dahliae .

Coupling Kinesin Spindle Protein and Aurora B Inhibition with Apoptosis Induction Enhances Oral Cancer Cell Killing

Many proteins regulating mitosis have emerged as targets for cancer therapy, including the kinesin spindle protein (KSP) and Aurora kinase B (AurB). KSP is crucial for proper spindle pole separation during mitosis, while AurB plays roles in chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. Agents targeting KSP and AurB selectively affect dividing cells and have shown significant activity in vitro. However, these drugs, despite advancing to clinical trials, often yield unsatisfactory outcomes as monotherapy, likely due to variable responses driven by cyclin B degradation and apoptosis signal accumulation networks. Accumulated data suggest that combining emerging antimitotics with various cytostatic drugs can enhance tumor-killing effects compared to monotherapy. Here, we investigated the impact of inhibiting anti-apoptotic signals with the BH3-mimetic Navitoclax in oral cancer cells treated with the selective KSP inhibitor, Ispinesib, or AurB inhibitor, Barasertib, aiming to potentiate cell death. The combination of BH3-mimetics with both KSP and AurB inhibitors synergistically induced substantial cell death, primarily through apoptosis. A mechanistic analysis underlying this synergistic activity, undertaken by live-cell imaging, is presented. Our data underscore the importance of combining BH3-mimetics with antimitotics in clinical trials to maximize their effectiveness.

Overexpression of neurofilament H disrupts normal cell structure and function

Studying exogenously expressed tagged proteins in live cells has become a standard technique for evaluating protein distribution and function. Typically, expression levels of experimentally introduced proteins are not regulated, and high levels are often preferred to facilitate detection. However, overexpression of many proteins leads to mislocalization and pathologies. Therefore, for normative studies, moderate levels of expression may be more suitable. To understand better the dynamics of intermediate filament formation, transport, and stability in a healthy, living cell, we inserted neurofilament heavy chain (NFH)-green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusion constructs in adenoviral vectors with tetracycline (tet)-regulated promoters. This system allows for turning on or off the synthesis of NFH-GFP at a selected time, for a defined period, in a dose-dependent manner. We used this inducible system for live cell imaging of changes in filament structure and cell shape, motility, and transport associated with increasing NFH-GFP expression. Cells with low to intermediate levels of NFH-GFP were structurally and functionally similar to neighboring, nonexpressing cells. In contrast, overexpression led to pathological alterations in both filament organization and cell function. Copyright 2002 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Identification of a calmodulin-regulated Ca2+-ATPase in the endoplasmic reticulum

A unique subfamily of calmodulin-dependent Ca2+-ATPases was recently identified in plants. In contrast to the most closely related pumps in animals, plasma membrane-type Ca2+-ATPases, members of this new subfamily are distinguished by a calmodulin-regulated autoinhibitor located at the N-terminal instead of a C-terminal end. In addition, at least some isoforms appear to reside in non-plasma membrane locations. To begin delineating their functions, we investigated the subcellular localization of isoform ACA2p (Arabidopsis Ca2+-ATPase, isoform 2 protein) in Arabidopsis. Here we provide evidence that ACA2p resides in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In buoyant density sucrose gradients performed with and without Mg2+, ACA2p cofractionated with an ER membrane marker and a typical "ER-type" Ca2+-ATPase, ACA3p/ECA1p. To visualize its subcellular localization, ACA2p was tagged with a green fluorescence protein at its C terminus (ACA2-GFPp) and expressed in transgenic Arabidopsis. We collected fluorescence images from live root cells using confocal and computational optical-sectioning microscopy. ACA2-GFPp appeared as a fluorescent reticulum, consistent with an ER location. In addition, we observed strong fluorescence around the nuclei of mature epidermal cells, which is consistent with the hypothesis that ACA2p may also function in the nuclear envelope. An ER location makes ACA2p distinct from all other calmodulin-regulated pumps identified in plants or animals.

Biochemical Kinetics Model of DSB Repair and GammaH2AX FOCI by Non-homologous End Joining

We developed a biochemical kinetics approach to describe the repair of double strand breaks (DSB) produced by low LET radiation by modeling molecular events associated with the mechanisms of non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ). A system of coupled non-linear ordinary differential equations describes the induction of DSB and activation pathways for major NHEJ components including Ku(sub 70/80), DNA-PK(sub cs), and the Ligase IV-XRCC4 hetero-dimer. The autophosphorylation of DNA-PK(sub cs and subsequent induction of gamma-H2AX foci observed after ionizing radiation exposure were modeled. A two-step model of DNA-PK(sub cs) regulation of repair was developed with the initial step allowing access of other NHEJ components to breaks, and a second step limiting access to Ligase IV-XRCC4. Our model assumes that the transition from the first to second-step depends on DSB complexity, with a much slower-rate for complex DSB. The model faithfully reproduced several experimental data sets, including DSB rejoining as measured by pulsed-field electrophoresis (PFGE), quantification of the induction of gamma-H2AX foci, and live cell imaging of the induction of Ku(sub 70/80). Predictions are made for the behaviors of NHEJ components at low doses and dose-rates, where a steady-state is found at dose-rates of 0.1 Gy/hr or lower.

Investigating the FLASH Effect in a Rat Brain Organotypic Model With a Novel High-Energy Electron Beam

Ultrahigh dose rate (FLASH) radiation therapy is reported to reduce normal tissue toxicity while maintaining tumor control; however, mechanism(s) remain obscure. To study FLASH mechanisms in brain tissue, we developed a novel experimental platform featuring a specialized high-energy electron linear accelerator, High Intensity Gamma Ray Source (HIGS), paired with an organotypic ex vivo brain metastasis model. We varied interpulse spacing to modulate the mean dose rate (MDR) of our unique 35 MeV electron beam, while maintaining extremely high instantaneous dose rate (IDR). We characterized dosimetry and targeting accuracy of the FLASH beam with film dosimetry. We combined this FLASH beam with an organotypic rat brain slice/breast carcinoma coculture model of brain metastasis to assess effects on normal and neoplastic tissues. Live-cell and bioluminescence imaging demonstrated cancer cell growth effects, whereas normal tissue responses and immune activation were assessed using live-cell imaging, cytokine profiles, and confocal microscopy. Here, we performed comparison experiments with 20 MeV electrons from a Varian clinical linear accelerator (VCLA) using conventional dose rates. The highest IDR of the FLASH beam to date was 20.7 ± 0.6 MGy/s, with maximum MDR of 20.7 MGy/s delivered in 1 pulse of 1 µs duration. Beam targeting was accurate to <1 mm and reproducible. HIGS-FLASH and VCLA dose rates equivalently decreased cancer cell growth. HIGS-FLASH irradiation significantly increased tumor necrosis factor α and fractalkine levels and confocal microscopy revealed distinct changes in microglial morphology slices suggesting microglia activation. Our novel experimental platform produces extremely high dose rates and rapid normal/neoplastic tissue readouts for mechanistic research into the effects of FLASH radiation in the brain. HIGS-FLASH irradiation induces comparable cancer cell growth inhibition but differential effects on cytokines and microglial morphology, suggesting that acute innate immune responses may be involved in FLASH normal tissue effects in the brain.

Impact of Gaps in the NASA-ISRO SAR Mission Swath

The NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar (NISAR) mission will carry L-band and S-band SAR instruments, each with a 240 km swath width. The L-band instrument has the capability to map the entire Earth’s land and ice covered surfaces from both ascending and descending orbit positions, continuously in an exact 12 day repeating cycle, given temporally dense (better than 6-day on average) sampling of Earth over the life of the mission. To achieve this swath coverage without loss of resolution or polarimetric capability, NISAR uses a reflector-feed based antenna system with scan-on-receive (“SweepSAR”) capability. One of the characteristics of SweepSAR is that the pulse repetition interval of the radar is shorter than the echo receive window for the 240 km swath. Therefore, transmit events occur during the receive window and the receivers must be blanked periodically, creating gaps in the coverage. For fixed pulse rate operations, these gaps are persistent strips of blanked ranges. NISAR is being designed to allow variation of the pulse rate in order to spread out these gaps throughout the synthetic aperture, but processing these variably-acquired data is more challenging and can lead to compromises in image quality. At the highest level NISAR places requirements on science measurements rather than image quality, so there is often a debate among science and engineering team members as to whether to operate with fixed pulse rates – leading to range strips consistently blank from cycle to cycle but with optimal image quality – or to vary the pulse rate, fill in the gaps, and live with degraded image quality. NISAR’s performance team has shown that science requirements can be met with the gaps. However, scientists are eager for maximum and coverage within a swath. A companion paper (Villano et al.) describes image quality for NISAR using a variable PRF approach, but does not go further to science requirements. This paper explores the issues when gaps are present in the swath due to fixed PRF operations.

Adaptive optical correction for in vivo two-photon fluorescence microscopy with neural fields

Adaptive optics restore ideal imaging performance in complex samples by measuring and correcting optical aberrations but often require custom-built microscopes with carefully aligned wavefront sensing/shaping devices and can be susceptible to sample motion. Here we describe NeAT, a computational framework using neural fields for adaptive optics two-photon fluorescence microscopy. NeAT estimates wavefront aberration and recovers sample structure from a 3D image stack without requiring external datasets for training. Incorporating motion correction in learning and correcting conjugation errors commonly found in commercial microscopes, NeAT is designed for deployment in biological laboratories for in vivo imaging. We validate NeAT’s performance using a custom-built microscope with a wavefront sensor under varying signal-to-noise ratios, aberration and motion conditions. With a commercial microscope, we demonstrate real-time aberration correction for in vivo morphological and functional imaging in the living mouse brain, with NeAT improving the signal and accuracy of glutamate and calcium imaging of synapses and neurons.
