Spatially Distributed Cytokinins: Metabolism, Signaling, and Transport.
Plant communications. 2024 April 31
Cytokinins are a type of mobile phytohormone that regulate plant growth, development, and environmental adaptability. The major cytokinin species include isopentenyl adenine (iP), trans-zeatin (tZ), cis-zeatin (cZ), and dihydrozeatin (DZ). The spatial distributions of different cytokinin species in different organelles, cells, tissues, and organs are primarily shaped by biosynthesis via isopentenyltransferases (IPT), cytochrome P450 monooxygenase, and 5'-ribonucleotide phosphohydrolase, and by conjugation or catabolism via glycosyltransferase or cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase (CKX). Cytokinins bind to histidine receptor kinases (HKs) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or plasma membrane (PM) and relay signals to response regulators (RRs) in the nucleus by shuttle proteins known as histidine phosphotransfer proteins (HPs). The movements of cytokinins from sites of biosynthesis to signal perception sites usually require long-distance, intercellular, and intracellular transport. In the past decade, ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, purine permeases (PUP), AZA-GUANINE RESISTANT (AZG) transporters, equilibrative nucleoside transporters (ENT), and Sugars Will Eventually be Exported Transporters (SWEET) have been characterized as involved in cytokinin transport processes. This review begins by introducing the spatial distributions of various cytokinins and the subcellular localizations of the proteins involved in cytokinin metabolism and signaling. Highlights focus on an inventory of the characterized transporters involved in cytokinin compartmentalization, including long-distance, intercellular, and intracellular transport, and the regulation of spatial distributions of cytokinins by environmental cues. Future directions for cytokinin research are also discussed.
