Abstract
Plant phytochromes perceive red and far-red light to elicit adaptations to the changing environment. Downstream physiological responses revolve around red-light-induced interactions with phytochrome-interacting factors (PIF). Phytochromes double as thermoreceptors, owing to the pronounced temperature dependence of thermal reversion from the light-adapted Pfr to the dark-adapted Pr state. Here, we assess whether thermoreception may extend to the phytochrome:PIF interactions. While the association between Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) PHYTOCHROME B (PhyB) and several PHYTOCHROME-INTERACTING FACTOR (PIF) variants moderately accelerates with temperature, the dissociation does more so, thus causing net destabilization of the phytochrome:PIF complex. Markedly different temperature profiles of PIF3 and PIF6 might underlie stratified temperature responses in plants. Accidentally, we identify a photoreception mechanism under strong continuous light, where the extent of phytochrome:PIF complexation decreases with red-light intensity rather than increases. Mathematical modeling rationalizes this attenuation mechanism and ties it to rapid red-light-driven Pr⇄Pfr interconversion and complex dissociation out of Pr. Varying phytochrome abundance, e.g., during diurnal and developmental cycles, and interaction dynamics, e.g., across different PIFs, modify the nature and extent of attenuation, thus permitting light-response profiles more malleable than possible for the phytochrome Pr⇄Pfr interconversion alone. Our data and analyses reveal a photoreception mechanism with implications for plant physiology, optogenetics, and biotechnological applications.
