  • Title: Overexpression of lncRNA08489 enhances tomato immunity against Phytophthora infestans by decoying miR482e-3p.
    Author: Liu W, Cui J, Luan Y.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 2022 Jan 08; 587():36-41. PubMed ID: 34864393.
    Abstract:
    LncRNAs are widely involved in various biological processes of plants. Recent evidences indicated that lncRNAs could act as competing endogenous RNAs (ceRNAs) to adsorb complementary miRNAs in a type of target mimicry, thereby indirectly regulating the target genes of miRNAs. In this study, a lncRNA, lncRNA08489 was identified to be the ceRNA of miR482e-3p in tomato plants. The expression patterns of lncRNA08489 and miR482e-3p showed opposite trends after tomato plants infected with Phytophthora infestans. In tomato leaves overexpressing lncRNA08489 (OE08489), the expression level of miR482e-3p decreased and its target gene, NBS-LRR increased. After infection with P. infestans, the resistance of OE08489 plants was stronger than that of the wild type, and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging ability of OE08489 plants was significantly improved. Taken together, these results indicated that lncRNA08489 acted as a ceRNA to decoy miR482e-3p and regulate the expression of NBS-LRR to enhance tomato resistance through ROS-scavenging system.
