Tree-microbes Interactions “Physiology and functional genomic of transporters” team

Fungal pathogen : Melampsora larici-populina

Populus trichocarpa

Melampsora larici-populina Haustorium formation

Adapted from Mengden et al.,

Biotrophic interfaces Infected leaves

At a cytological level

Molecular and metabolic dialogue.

Entrainment of plant metabolism by phytopathogenic fungus

1. Sensing nitrogen or carbon availability

2. de-repression of specific metabolic pathways (transporters; enzymes)

3. Plant defence responses are taken up through AA permeases.

4. Plant invertase produce depolymerized sugars that both partners can use.

- Which role(s) transporters play in molecular dialogue, in exchange of nutrients ?

- Which transporteurs are key molecular markers for the interaction?

Divon and Fluhr, 2007

Toward an overview of Melamspora “transportome”……

© INRA

- TCDB: Transport Classification DataBase http://www.tcdb.org/ 550 families

-TransportDBhttp://www.membranetransport.org/

1. Retrieve proteins from DB

1. Analysis- Blastp - search for IPR, PFAM domains- search by KOG classification

And………manual curation (tblastn for some families)

Plant Symbionts Animal pathogens

Increased genetic potential for transmembrane channel proteins

(water; solute as small carbohydrates (e.g. glycerol), urea, nitrate, CO2, H2O2, ions)

Page 7: UMR 1136 INRA/UHP Tree-microbes Interactions “Physiology and functional genomic of transporters” team Fungal pathogen : Melampsora larici-populina Populus

Family specific to plant-pathogen fungus (at least basidiomycetes). ascomycetes???

Page 8: UMR 1136 INRA/UHP Tree-microbes Interactions “Physiology and functional genomic of transporters” team Fungal pathogen : Melampsora larici-populina Populus

What makes a pathogen an obligate highly specialized pathogen?

Page 9: UMR 1136 INRA/UHP Tree-microbes Interactions “Physiology and functional genomic of transporters” team Fungal pathogen : Melampsora larici-populina Populus

1. Less ability to transport and likely utilize mineral nitrogen coumpounds.

Page 10: UMR 1136 INRA/UHP Tree-microbes Interactions “Physiology and functional genomic of transporters” team Fungal pathogen : Melampsora larici-populina Populus

2. an increased genetic potential for peptide uptake ...

Gene Family Number of Hits - Blastp (cut-off e-value=10-5) - Search using IPR number - Search using KOG nomenclature

Number of hits after curation

Uromyces fabae genes (PIG, permeases)

Mlp genes

- OPT : example of how evolution has shaped Mlp genome to suit specialized pathogenic lifestyle.

- Role of nutrition in the host-pathogen relationship with respect to host restriction and evolution towards obligate pathogenesis

Conclusion

Small number of transporter-encoding gene models EST support
