AtNSF regulates leaf serration by modulating intracellular trafficking of PIN1 in Arabidopsis thaliana

Abstract: In eukaryotes, N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor (NSF) is a conserved AAA+ATPase and a key component of the membrane trafficking machinery that promotes the fusion of secretory vesicles with target membranes. Here, we demonstrate that the Arabidopsis thaliana genome contains a single copy of NSF, AtNSF, which plays an essential role in the regulation of leaf serration. The AtNSF knock-down mutant, atnsf-1, exhibited more serrations in the leaf margin. Moreover, polar localization of the PIN-FORMED1 (PIN1) auxin efflux transporter was diffuse around the margins of atnsf-1 leaves and root growth was inhibited in the atnsf-1 mutant. More PIN1-GFP accumulated in the intracellular compartments of atnsf-1 plants, suggesting that AtNSF is required for intracellular trafficking of PIN between the endosome and plasma membrane. Furthermore, the serration phenotype was suppressed in the atnsf-1 pin1-8 double mutant, suggesting that AtNSF is required for PIN1-mediated polar auxin transport to regulate leaf serration. The CUP-SHAPED COTYLEDON2 (CUC2) transcription factor gene is up-regulated in atnsf-1 plants and the cuc2-3 single mutant exhibits smooth leaf margins, demonstrating that AtNSF also functions in the CUC2 pathway. Our results reveal that AtNSF regulates the PIN1-generated auxin maxima with a CUC2-mediated feedback loop to control leaf serration
