ENVIRONMENTAL STRESS AND ADAPTATION

Potato Plants Lacking the CDSP32 Plastidic Thioredoxin Exhibit Overoxidation of the BAS1 2-Cysteine Peroxiredoxin and Increased Lipid Peroxidation in Thylakoids under Photooxidative Stress

Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA)/Cadarache, Direction des Sciences du Vivant, Département d'Ecophysiologie Végétale et de Microbiologie, Laboratoire d'Ecophysiologie de la Photosynthèse, 13108 Saint-Paul-lez-Durance cedex, France

The CDSP32 protein (chloroplastic drought-induced stress protein of 32 kD) is a thioredoxin participating in the defense against oxidative damage. We recently have identified in vitro the BAS1 2-Cys peroxiredoxin, a peroxide-detoxifying enzyme, as a target for CDSP32. Here, we report the characterization under stress conditions of transgenic potato (Solanum tuberosum) plants lacking CDSP32 with regard to the BAS1 redox state and the level of lipid peroxidation. Under control conditions, BAS1 is present at similar levels both in wild-type (WT) and transgenic plants. Under drought and methyl viologen treatment, CDSP32-lacking plants display, compared with WT, an increased proportion of BAS1 monomer corresponding to an overoxidized form of the protein. Leaf discs from transgenic plants treated with methyl viologen exhibit earlier degradation of BAS1 than WT plants do. Using several approaches, i.e. a probe emitting fluorescence when reacting with peroxides, high-performance liquid chromatography determination of lipid hydroxy fatty acid content, and measurement of chlorophyll thermoluminescence, we show a higher lipid peroxidation level under methyl viologen treatment in thylakoids from CDSP32-lacking plants compared with WT. These data show that CDSP32 is a critical component in the defense system against lipid peroxidation in photosynthetic membranes, likely as a physiological electron donor to the BAS1 peroxiredoxin.
