Re S1) confirming EHD1 to be BFA sensitive, as was also indicated for the RabA/RabD proteins with which it co-localizes [37], leading to the conclusion that it is indeed localized to BFA sensitive compartments. Interestingly, EHD1_DEH can be seen in the vacuole following BFA treatment, while EHD1_DCC localized to the BFA bodies (MedChemExpress 10236-47-2 MedChemExpress Pentagastrin Figure S1). These experiments led us to the conclusion that Arabidopsis plants knocked-down in EHD1 are delayed in recycling while plants overexpressing EHD1 may possess enhanced recycling; we next examined the two deletion mutants. Figure 3J show that the EH domain deletion mutant behaves essentially like an EHD1 knock-down, possessing 12926553 decreased BFA sensitivity, while the coiled-coil domain deletion mutant behaves essentially like EHD1 overexpression (Figure 3M?O), possessing increased BFA sensitivity. EHD2 knock-down seedlings behaved similarly to wild-type seedlings throughout the course of the experiment (Figure S2).Overexpression of EHD1 confers salt toleranceAnalyzing the expression pattern of EHD1 revealed that its expression increases following salt stress [44]. We confirmed this observation by semi-quantitative RT-PCR, determining that 9 hours following salinity treatment (200 mM NaCl for indicated time points, see Figure 4) EHD1 reaches a peak of 7 times the level of its basal expression. EHD2 has extremely low endogenous expression [25], often below the threshold of detection; this did not change throughout the course of this experiment. To further examine a possible connection between EHD1 function and salt tolerance we exposed EHD1 overexpressing and knock-down seedlings to salt stress. The expression of EHD1, DEH and DCC were monitored in the transgenic plants (Figure S3). As can be seen in Figure 5, EHD1 overexpressing seedlings possess increased salt tolerance, as is evident from their increased ability to germinate on NaCl containing media. Perhaps not surprisingly, seedlings knocked-down in EHD1 have increased NaCl sensitivity as compared with wild-type seedlings. Once again, the 23727046 deletion in the EH domain behaves like an EHD1 knock down, while, in this specific case, the deletion in the coiled-coil domain did not confer increased germination on salt containing media, behaving instead like the wild type seeds. EHD2 knock-down seedlings behaved similarly to wild-type seedlings throughout the course of the experiment (Figure S2). Salt sensitivity in Arabidopsis has been correlated with an increase in reactive oxygen species [45,46]. We examined the production of ROS with AmplexRed in seedlings exposed to 200 mM NaCl for 2 hours (as described in [47,48]. As can be seen in Figure 6, a decreased sensitivity to NaCl in the EHD1 overexpressing seedlings correlates with a decrease in ROS production in response to the exposure to NaCl, while an increase in NaCl sensitivity in the knock-down seedlings correlates with an increase in ROS production in response to NaCl treatment. Once again, the EHD1 mutant lacking the EH domain behaves like an EHD1 knock-down while the EHD1 mutant lacking the coiled-coil domain behaves similarly to EHD1 overexpressing seedlings. To further examine the salt tolerance/sensitivity phenotype, seedlings of all types were examined microscopically followingEHD1 is involved in recyclingAs discussed above, mammalian EHD1 is involved in endocytic recycling in several systems.
