Plant roots form an intracellular symbiosis with nitrogen-fixing bacteria while maintaining the capacity for defending themselves against bacterial pathogens. To investigate the molecular relationship between these opposing cellular responses, we compared changes in the root phosphoproteome of the legume Lotus japonicus occurring within minutes after perception of nodulation factor (NF), a symbiotic signaling molecule, to those elicited by flagellin peptide (flg22), a conserved pathogen-associated peptide motif present in flagellar protein of a wide range of bacteria. Phosphoproteins were visualized by autoradiography of two-dimensional polyacrylamide gels after in vivo labeling with 33P-orthophosphate. Comparisons of NF- and flg22-induced phosphoprotein patterns revealed signal-specific responses but also a surprisingly large overlap. Specificity of the responses was observed because the NF receptor kinases NFR1 and NFR5 were both required for NF- but not for flg22-mediated changes in the phosphoproteome. Moreover, NF did not stimulate an oxidative burst or activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases, two common markers for early defense responses that were induced by flg22. Inhibitor studies revealed that phosphorylation of at least some of the proteins in response to NF requires phospholipase D (PLD) whereas regulation of the flg22 phosphoproteome is PLD-independent. Although plant signal transduction during symbiosis and defense utilizes distinct components, phosphorylation of overlapping sets of proteins is achieved.

The fucosyltransferase NodZ is involved in the biosynthesis of the nodulation factor in nitrogen-fixing symbiotic bacteria. It catalyzes alpha1,6 transfer of l-fucose from GDP-fucose to the reducing residue of the synthesized Nod oligosaccharide. We present the structure of the NodZ protein from Bradyrhizobium expressed in Escherichia coli and crystallized in the presence of phosphate ions in two crystal forms. The enzyme is arranged into two domains of nearly equal size. Although NodZ falls in one broad class (GT-B) with other two-domain glycosyltransferases, the topology of its domains deviates from the canonical Rossmann fold, with particularly high distortions in the N-terminal domain. Mutational data combined with structural and sequence alignments indicate residues of potential importance in GDP-fucose binding or in the catalytic mechanism. They are all clustered in three conserved sequence motifs located in the C-terminal domain.
