'' Control of plant phosphate homeostasis by inositol pyrophosphate nutrient messengers '' Prof Michael Hothorn Department of Plant Sciences Faculty of Science Science III University of Geneva SWITZERLAND Thursday, March 7, 2024 11:00 Phosphorus forms an essential structural component of membranes and nucleic acids, represents an important signaling molecule and the energy currency of the cell. It is taken up by plants in the form of inorganic phosphate (Pi). How eukaryotic cells ‘measure’ intracellular Pi levels and respond to changes in Pi availability remains to be uncovered at the mechanistic level. We have previously reported that eukaryotic SPX domains are cellular receptors for Pi-rich inositol pyrophosphate (PP-InsP) nutrient messengers. In Pi sufficient growth conditions, PP-InsP levels are high and enable the binding of the nutrient messenger to its SPX receptor. In plants, the activated receptor can in turn bind a family of phosphate starvation responsive transcription factors rendering them unable to bind DNA. Under phosphate starvation PP-InsP levels drop, the receptor – transcription factor complex dissociates and the released transcription factor can activate Pi-starvation responsive gene expression. I will present our current mechanistic understanding of this nutrient signaling pathway as well as a quantitative biochemical, structural and physiological characterization of PP-InsP biosynthesis and catabolism in the model plants Arabidopsis and Marchantia.

'' Selective autophagy in plants '' Dr Marisa Otegui University of Wisconsin-Madison USA Thursday, April 11, 2024 11:00 Canonical autophagy is the primary pathway that controls the degradation of organelles and cytoplasmic components for nutrient recycling and cellular protection in all eukaryotes. Autophagy can be highly selective and through the selective receptors, targets specific organelles under stress conditions. I will discuss selective autophagy pathways in plants that mediate the degradation of the endoplasmic reticulum and chloroplasts and discuss their effects in nutrient mobilization, cellular protection against oxidative stress and development.
