Abstract
Caleosin/peroxygenases (CLO/PXGs) play critical functional roles during plant development, oxylipin metabolism, and the response to abiotic/biotic stressors and environmental toxins. In Oryza sativa, peroxygenase-9 (OsPXG9) catabolizes intermediates in oxylipin biosynthesis produced by lipoxygenase-9 (9-LOX) and scavenges HOOH and CuOOH by transferring oxygen [...] Read more.
Caleosin/peroxygenases (CLO/PXGs) play critical functional roles during plant development, oxylipin metabolism, and the response to abiotic/biotic stressors and environmental toxins. In Oryza sativa, peroxygenase-9 (OsPXG9) catabolizes intermediates in oxylipin biosynthesis produced by lipoxygenase-9 (9-LOX) and scavenges HOOH and CuOOH by transferring oxygen to hydroxy fatty acids (HFAs) but not to the free fatty acids. The resulting epoxide derivatives of HFAs are then enzymatically or non-enzymatically hydrolyzed into the corresponding trihydroxy derivatives. Results presented here demonstrate OsPXG9′s specificity for catabolizing products of the 9-LOX (and not for the 13-LOX) pathway of oxylipin biosynthesis. Overexpression of OsPXG9 reduces ROS (reactive oxygen species) abundance and reduces drought- and salt-stress-induced apoptotic cell death. The high expression level of OsPXG9 also stimulates drought- and salt-induced but not basal expression of antioxidant enzymes/pathways in plants, thereby increasing cellular resistance to drought. These results suggest that OsPXG9 decreases ROS abundance and is essential to increase resilience in rice plants exposed to exogenous or endogenous abiotic stress. Full article
