Abstrakt: Arabidopsis plants adapt to warm temperatures by promoting hypocotyl growth primarily through the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor PIF4 and its downstream genes involved in auxin responses, which enhance cell division. In the current study, we discovered that cell wall-related calcium-binding protein 2 (CCaP2) and its paralogs CCaP1 and CCaP3 function as positive regulators of thermo-responsive hypocotyl growth by promoting cell elongation in Arabidopsis. Interestingly, mutations in CCaP1/CCaP2/CCaP3 do not affect the expression of PIF4-regulated classic downstream genes. However, they do noticeably reduce the expression of xyloglucan endotransglucosylase/hydrolase genes, which are involved in cell wall modification. We also found that CCaP1/CCaP2/CCaP3 are predominantly localized to the plasma membrane, where they interact with the plasma membrane H + -ATPases AHA1/AHA2. Furthermore, we observed that vanadate-sensitive H + -ATPase activity and cell wall pectin and hemicellulose contents are significantly increased in wild-type plants grown at warm temperatures compared with those grown at normal growth temperatures, but these changes are not evident in the ccap1-1 ccap2-1 ccap3-1 triple mutant. Overall, our findings demonstrate that CCaP1/CCaP2/CCaP3 play an important role in controlling thermo-responsive hypocotyl growth and provide new insights into the alternative pathway regulating hypocotyl growth at warm temperatures through cell wall modification mediated by CCaP1/CCaP2/CCaP3.
