Function

Tillering and Dwarf 1(TAD1), which encodes a co-activator of the anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C), a multi-subunit E3 ligase. The protein interacts with moC1, forms a complex with osAPC10 and functions as a co-activator of APC/C to target MoC1 for degradation in a cell-cycle-dependent manner.

TAD1 encodes a Cdh1-type activator of APC/C, an ortholog to CCS52A in dicots.During the cell-cycl progression, TAD1 shows an oscillating expression pattern with a higher level in the G1-phase.The TAD1-deduced amino-acid sequence contains several conserved domains, including seven WD repeats, C-box, CSM, RVL and IR motifs.

                                             
                                                 Deternination of the interaction between TAD1 and MOC1 by coimmunoprecipitation and BiFC assays.

Sequence analysis revealed that MOC1 harbours a typical D-box at the N-terminal (Fig.a). Therefore, it is very likely that MOC1 and TAD1 directly interact to control rice tillering. MOC1–GFP fusion protein could capture the TAD1–FLAG fusion protein, suggesting an in vivo interaction between MOC1 and TAD1 (Fig.b). Bimolecular fluorescence complementation shown in Fig.c, when the full-length cDNAs of TAD1 and MOC1 were introduced into rice protoplasts simultaneously, the fluorescence signal was detected in the nucleus, indicating that TAD1 can directly interact with MOC1 in the nucleus. Furthermore, when two conserved residues, arginine and leucine, of the D-box at the N-terminal were changed into alanine (Fig.a), the MOC1 protein was unable to interact with TAD1, demonstrating that the D-box is indispensable for the interaction between MOC1 and TAD1 (Fig.c). In addition, a series of truncated TAD1 proteins were generated to determine the domains that are essential for the interaction with MOC1 via the BiFC analysis (Fig.d). The results showed that the N-terminal 203 amino acids of TAD1 are sufficient to interact with MOC1.

OsAPC10 interacts with TAD1 in vivo and their interaction occurs in the nucleus of rice protoplasts. Coexpressed TAD1, MOC1 and OsAPC10 proteins in the rice protoplasts can prove that MOC1 can indeed form a protein complex with TAD1 and OsAPC10 in vivo(Fig.b). Therefore, it is very likely that TAD1 recruits MOC1 to APC/C, and OsAPC10 is also involved in recognizing and targeting MOC1 for further degradation. TAD1 may recruit MOC1 to APC/C for degradation mainly at the G1-phase Cell division may execute the activation of bud cells. The activity of cell division blocked in the G1-phase possibly accompanies low levels of MOC1 proteins in the dormant tiller buds. Based on the cellcycle profile of bud cells and the function of APC/C TAD1–MOC1, we propose that the APC/CTAD1–MOC1 complex may act locally in tiller buds. During the cell-cycle progression of tiller bud cells, TAD1 is activated in the G1-phase, where it targets MOC1 for degradation to maintain a low level of MOC1. When tiller cells transit into the next phase, the TAD1 level is reduced, which causes MOC1 to accumulate and regain its function in controlling tillering.

                          Expression of TAD1 during the cell-cycle progression and phenotypes of TAD1-overexpressing transgenic plants.

TAD1 has an oscillated expression pattern during the cell-cycle progression, showing a higher level in the G1-phase and a lower level in the S- and G2/M-phases. The overexpression of MOC1 resulted in similar phenotypes to that of the tad1mutant plant, such as more tillers and reduced plant height, whereas TAD1-overexpressing transgenic plants showed a reduced tiller number,a similar phenotype to moc1.Real-time PCR analysis showed that TAD1is expressed ubiquitously in the examined rice organs, including roots, shoot apices, axillary buds, internodes, nodes, and young leaves and panicles, but more abundant in young leaves, axillary buds and nodes.The tissue-specific expression pattern of TAD1 was further examined by messenger RNA in situhybridization. TAD1 was predominantly expressed in the leaf primordia and young leaves, tiller buds, inflorescence promordia, and crown root promordia. In addition, TAD1 expression was detected in vascular bundles at the unenlongated stem.
