Abstract


The small Rho GTPase acts as a molecular switch in eukaryotic signal transduction, which plays a critical role in polar cell growth and vesicle trafficking. Previous studies demonstrated that constitutively active (CA) mutant strains, of MoRho3-CA were defective in appressorium formation. While dominant-negative (DN) mutant strains MoRho3-DN shows defects in polar growth. However, the molecular dynamics of MoRho3-mediated regulatory networks in the pathogenesis of Magnaporthe oryzae still needs to be uncovered. Here, we perform comparative transcriptomic profiling of MoRho3-CA and MoRho3-DN mutant strains using a high-throughput RNA sequencing approach. We find that genetic manipulation of MoRho3 significantly disrupts the expression of 28 homologs of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rho3-interacting proteins, including EXO70, BNI1, and BNI2 in the MoRho3 CA, DN mutant strains. Functional enrichment analyses of up-regulated DEGs reveal a significant enrichment of genes associated with ribosome biogenesis in the MoRho3-CA mutant strain. Down-regulated DEGs in the MoRho3-CA mutant strains shows significant enrichment in starch/sucrose metabolism and the ABC transporter pathway. Moreover, analyses of down-regulated DEGs in the in MoRho3-DN reveals an over-representation of genes enriched in metabolic pathways. In addition, we observe a significant suppression in the expression levels of secreted proteins suppressed in both MoRho3-CA and DN mutant strains. Together, our results uncover expression dynamics mediated by two states of the small GTPase MoRho3, demonstrating its crucial roles in regulating the expression of ribosome biogenesis and secreted proteins.
