Abstract

Oxidation of methionine (Met) leads to the formation of two S- and R-diastereoisomers of Met sulfoxide (MetO) that are reduced back to Met by methionine sulfoxide reductases (MSRs), A and B, respectively. Here, we review the current knowledge about the physiological functions of plant MSRs in relation with subcellular and tissue distribution, expression patterns, mutant phenotypes, and possible targets. The data gained from modified lines of plant models and crop species indicate that MSRs play protective roles upon abiotic and biotic environmental constraints. They also participate in the control of the ageing process, as shown in seeds subjected to adverse conditions. Significant advances were achieved towards understanding how MSRs could fulfil these functions via the identification of partners among Met-rich or MetO-containing proteins, notably by using redox proteomic approaches. In addition to a global protective role against oxidative damage in proteins, plant MSRs could specifically preserve the activity of stress responsive effectors such as glutathione-S-transferases and chaperones. Moreover, several lines of evidence indicate that MSRs fulfil key signaling roles via interplays with Ca2+- and phosphorylation-dependent cascades, thus transmitting ROS-related information in transduction pathways.

Figures

Figure 1 Reducing pathways of plant methionine sulfoxide reductases (MSRs). Methionine (Met) can be oxidized into Met sulfoxide and met sulfone, the latter modification being irreversible. Two main paths supply electrons to MSRs that allow Met regeneration from Met sulfoxide (MetO): on one hand, the path from photosynthetic electron chain to thioredoxins that takes place in chloroplast, and on the other hand, the one from reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) to thioredoxin that is localized in cytosol. Other routes, involving notably glutaredoxins, participate in the reduction of atypical MSRs harboring for example one unique catalytic cysteine, in chloroplast. ROS: reactive oxygen species.

Figure 2 Subcellular localization of MSRs in Arabidopsis thaliana. Localization of MSRA4, MSRB1, and MSRB2 in plastid, of MSRB3 in endoplasmic reticulum and of MSRB7 and MSRB8 was proven experimentally [49,50,51,52]. These isoforms appear in black. For other isoforms (in white), the localization is based on predictions from sequence analysis or on proteomic analyses [63,64,65].

Figure 3 Physiological functions of plant MSRs. The functions of MSRs in the responses to high light, high salt, high carbonate, water deficit, low temperature, cadmium and in photoperiod adaptation was shown in Arabidopsis [50,52,76,105,107,112,113] rice, [55,57,114] or Glycine soja [60]. The participation in responses to biotic constraints was reported in Arabidopsis [86], pepper, or tomato [56] the involvement in seed ageing in Arabidopsis and Medicago truncatula [68]. The presumed role in organ senescence and fruit maturation is based on expression patterns and identification of possible partners in Aarabidopsis, strawberry, litchi, and banana [50,61,62,71].

Figure 4 Presumed modes of action of plant MSRs. The proposed functions of MSRs in repair and preservation of antioxidant, protein processing, and photosynthetic systems and in signaling transduction pathways are based on the phenotype of plants modified for MSR expression and on the identity of their possible targets.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
