Dehaene, Noémie. "Functional analysis of a cytoplasmic male sterility in Arabidopsis thaliana." Thesis, Université Paris-Saclay (ComUE), 2017. http://www.theses.fr/2017SACLS418/document.
This work aims at better understand the events leading to pollen abortion in a recently discovered gametophytic cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in Arabidopsis thaliana. Although CMS have been widely used in hybrid seed production in many crops, the physiological mechanisms leading to pollen death by the mitochondrial sterilizing genes in the permissive (maintainer) nuclear backgrounds are poorly understood. Association genetics previously identified orf117Sha as a candidate mitochondrial CMS-associated gene.In a first part, I analyzed the expression of the orf117Sha gene in sterile plants and in fertile plants carrying nuclear genes restoring male fertility. I observed unusual features of its mRNA, but detected no difference at this level between sterile and restored plants. Oppositely, the ORF117SHA protein seems to be accumulated specifically in the sterile line, supporting its role in CMS. A phenocopy attempt by transgenesis suggested a possible link between a female and male gametophytic lethality and the ORF117SHA, even though few individuals could be analyzed.In a second part, I observed pollen development in sterile plants and fertile controls using different cytological approaches. My results show a progressive pollen death starting from the binucleate stage in the sterile. Prior to abortion, pollen mitochondria swell before rupture, and the development stops. I used confocal microscopy combined with genetically encoded sensors to explore specific physiological features in pollen and vegetative tissues of sterile plants. With ATeam, which allows the assessment of ATP content in the cytosol, I could challenge the generally accepted hypothesis of an ATP deficiency leading to pollen abortion in CMS. Indeed, the ATP production does not seem to be affected in the sterile line. With a mitochondria-addressed roGFP2-Grx1, I was able to assess the redox state of the glutathione pool in vegetative tissues and in the male gametophyte. I observed an overoxydation of the glutathione pool in mitochondria of the sterile line, in vegetative tissue investigated and in the pollen grain. This overoxydation seems to be linked to the CMS as it is annihilated by the presence of restorer genes.My results pave the way for further exploration of the links between the sterility protein, mitochondrial morphology changes, mitochondrial overoxydation, and pollen development arrest and death in the A. thaliana CMS

Over the last decade, the development of fluorescent redox biosensors has provided tools to study the in vivo dynamics of molecules such as the reduced and oxidized forms of glutathione or hydrogen peroxide. Cysteine being a key metabolite of sulfur metabolism, this PhD project aimed at developing a fluorescent redox biosensor specific for cysteine by coupling an oxidoreductase to roGFP2 (reduction-oxidation green fluorescent protein). First, the activities of several isoforms of cysteine desulfurases (CD) and rhodanese-domain containing proteins (Rhd), catalyzing cysteine desulfuration and trans-persufidation reactions, respectively, were analyzed in vitro in order to determine whether they could constitute good candidates for this oxidoreductase activity. These analyses revealed that a natural chimeric protein possessing both CD and Rhd domains efficiently oxidizes roGFP2, by catalyzing trans-persulfidation reactions from cysteine to roGFP2. This candidate protein was then fused to roGFP2 to generate the CD-Rhd-roGFP2 biosensor. In vitro, this protein is sensitive to oxidation in the presence of physiological concentrations of cysteine whereas oxidation by thiosulfate, another potential substrate of the Rhd domain, is negligible. In addition, the trans-persulfidation reactions between the protein domains leading to the oxidation of roGFP2 are not inhibited by physiological reducing systems. Nevertheless, the glutathione/glutaredoxin system specifically reduces roGFP2. The expression of this biosensor in the bacterium Escherichia coli revealed a dynamic response of the biosensor to exogenous addition of cysteine or cystine, paving the way for similar studies in organelles from other eukaryotic model organisms

Oxidative stress and NADPH oxidase-2 (NOX2) enzyme are associated to the decline of the functional β-cell mass in type 2 diabetes (T2D). Here, we tested the role of NOX2 on β-cell glucotoxicity. NOX2 knockout (NOX2 KO) and wild type (WT) C57BL/6J mice islets were isolated and cultured up to 3 weeks at 10 or 30 mmol/l glucose concentrations (G10 and G30, respectively). The insulin secretion was higher in NOX2-KO vs. WT islets despite similar metabolic and cytosolic glutathione-redox potential (EGSH) changes. The prolonged culture at G30 increases the H2O2 concentration and cytosolic thiol oxidation, followed by increased βcell apoptosis but preserving maximal secretory response. These responses were almost identical in both types of islets. In conclusion, NOX2 is a negative regulator of insulin secretion in C57BL/6J mouse islets, but is not a critical component for β-cell survival in a model of glucotoxicity in vitro.

Parkinson’s disease is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a loss of dopaminergic neurons, where mitochondrial dysfunction and neuroinflammation are implicated in this process. However, the exact mechanisms of mitochondrial dysfunction, oxidative stress and neuroinflammation leading to the onset and development of Parkinson’s disease are not well understood. There is a lack of tools necessary to dissect these mechanisms, therefore we engineered genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors to monitor redox status and an inflammatory signal peptide with high spatiotemporal resolution. To measure intracellular redox dynamics, we developed red-shifted redox sensors and demonstrated their application in dual compartment imaging to study cross compartmental redox dynamics in live cells. To monitor extracellular inflammatory events, we developed a family of spectrally diverse genetically encoded fluorescent biosensors for the inflammatory mediator peptide, bradykinin. At the organismal level, we characterized the locomotor effects of mitochondrial toxicant-induced dopaminergic disruption in a zebrafish animal model and evaluated a behavioral assay as a method to screen for dopaminergic dysfunction. Pairing our intracellular redox sensors and our extracellular bradykinin sensors in a Parkinson’s disease animal model, such as a zebrafish toxicant-induced model will prove useful for dissecting the role of mitochondrial dysfunction and inflammation in Parkinson’s disease.
