摘要
The conversion of nitrate to ammonium, i.e., nitrate reduction, is a major consumer of reductants in plants. Previous studies have reported that the mitochondrial alternative oxidase (AOX) is upregulated under limited nitrate reduction conditions, including no/low nitrate or when ammonium is the sole nitrogen (N) source. Electron transfer from ubiquinone to AOX bypasses the proton-pumping complexes III and IV, thereby consuming reductants efficiently. Thus, upregulated AOX under limited nitrate reduction may dissipate excessive reductants and thereby attenuate oxidative stress. Nevertheless, so far there is no firm evidence for this hypothesis due to the lack of experimental systems to analyze the direct relationship between nitrate reduction and AOX. We therefore developed a novel culturing system for A. thaliana that manipulates shoot activities of nitrate reduction and AOX separately without causing N starvation, ammonium toxicity, or lack of nitrate signal. Using shoots processed with this system, we examined genome-wide gene expression and growth to better understand the relationship between AOX and nitrate reduction. The results showed that, only when nitrate reduction was limited, AOX deficiency significantly upregulated genes involved in mitochondrial oxidative stress, reductant shuttles, and non-phosphorylating bypasses of the respiratory chain, and inhibited growth. Thus, we conclude that AOX alleviates mitochondrial oxidative stress and sustains plant growth under limited nitrate reduction.
