Abstract
In most organisms, the mitochondrial genes are transcribed by RNA polymerases related to the single-subunit RNA polymerases of bacteriophages like T3 and T7. In flowering plants, duplication(s) of the RpoTm gene coding for the mitochondrial RNA polymerase (RPOTm) led to the evolution of additional RNA polymerases transcribing genes in plastids (RPOTp) or in both mitochondria and plastids (RPOTmp). Two putative RPOTmp enzymes were previously described to be encoded by the nuclear genes RpoTmp1 and RpoTmp2 in the moss Physcomitrella patens. Here, we report on a third Physcomitrella RpoT gene. We determined the sequence of the cDNA. Comparison of the deduced amino acid sequence with sequences of plant organellar RNA polymerases suggests that this gene encodes a functional phage-type RNA polymerase. The 78 N-terminal amino acids of the putative RNA polymerase were fused to GFP and found to target the fusion protein exclusively to mitochondria in Arabidopsis protoplasts. P. patens is the only known organism to possess three mitochondrial RNA polymerases.

Introduction
Mitochondrial transcription is strictly dependent on nuclear gene-encoded phage-type RNA polymerases since all eukaryotes, with the exception of the jacobid protists, seem to lack a mitochondrial bacterial-type RNA polymerase (Burger et al. 2013). On the contrary, chloroplasts have retained a eubacterial RNA polymerase with chloroplast gene-encoded core subunits and nuclear gene-encoded sigma factor(s) from their cyanobacterial ancestor. In angiosperms, the bacterial-type RNA polymerase (called PEP for plastid-encoded plastid RNA polymerase) is not sufficient for transcription of the chloroplast genes. The activity of one or two phage-type RNA polymerase(s) (called NEP for nuclear-encoded plastid RNA polymerase) has to complement PEP activity. NEP has evolved in angiosperms by duplication(s) of the RpoTm gene for the mitochondrial RNA polymerase (RpoT for RNA polymerase of phage T3/7-type; m for mitochondrial (Liere et al. 2011). RpoT genes encoding mitochondrial and/or plastid phage-type polymerases have been identified in several land plants. Eudicotyledonous plants such as Arabidopsis and Nicotiana posses at least three RpoT genes coding for a mitochondrial (RPOTm), a plastid (RPOTp) and a dual-targeted polymerase (RPOTmp) (Hedtke et al. 2000, 2002; Kobayashi et al. 2002, a, b). Nuclear genomes of monocots investigated thus far harbour not more than two RpoT genes, one coding for a mitochondrial RNA polymerase (RPOTm) and the other for a plastidial enzyme (RPOTp) (Chang et al. 1999; Emanuel et al. 2004; Ikeda and Gray 1999), seemingly lacking the RpoTmp gene encoding the dual-targeted RPOT polymerase found in eudicots. This RpoTmp originated most likely after RpoTp from a second duplication of the RpoTm gene during angiosperm evolution (Liere et al. 2011). In the basal angiosperm Nuphar advena, two duplications of the RpoTm gene gave rise to the plastid enzyme RPOTp and to a second mitochondrial RNA polymerase (Yin et al. 2010).
While RpoT genes from angiosperms have been well characterised [reviewed in (Liere et al. 2011)], almost nothing is known about the evolution of those genes in other lineages of the plant kingdom. Only one RpoT gene coding for the mitochondrial RNA polymerase was detected in the lycophyte Selaginella moellendorffii (Yin et al. 2009). In the deeper branching leafy moss Physcomitrella patens, however, two nuclear RpoT genes were reported to exist (Kabeya et al. 2002; Richter et al. 2002). Dual targeting of the two RpoT gene products to both mitochondria and plastids being the result of two different translational starts has been described, and the polymerases were designated as PpRPOTmp1 and PpRPOTmp2 (Richter et al. 2002). For both PpRPOTmp1 and PpRPOTmp2, translation initiation at the first of two in-frame AUG start codons was found to compose a polypeptide with N-terminal plastidial targeting properties, whereas initiation at the downstream AUG gave rise to a mitochondrial protein (Richter et al. 2002). More recently, Kabeya and Sato (2005) demonstrated that translation initiation from the first AUG at the RpoTmp1 and RpoTmp2 transcripts was repressed for all constructs with the native 5′UTR present. Thus, targeting to mitochondria or chloroplasts of these enzymes might be tightly regulated by alternative usage of the two start codons.
Phylogenetic analyses show a distinct group of the plant RpoT sequences clearly separated from those of fungi and animals. In concordance with this finding, the plant specific gene structure is highly conserved in all plant RpoT genes investigated thus far (Richter et al. 2002). Within this group, the RPOT polymerases of Physcomitrella patens are separated from the angiosperm polymerases, with the latter falling into two groups with plastid-localised enzymes on one hand, and mitochondrial- and dual-targeted polymerases on the other (Liere and Börner 2007; Richter et al. 2002). The duplication event that led to the RpoT gene copies in P. patens, thus, must be considered to have occurred independently from the one giving rise to the RpoT gene family in angiosperms. Furthermore, it shows that the duplication giving rise to a group of exclusively plastid-localised RPOTp gene products of angiosperms is predating the duplication event that led to the appearance of the third gene as found in eudicot plants, such as A. thaliana or N. sylvestris (Richter et al. 2002).
The moss P. patens (Hedw.) Bruch and Schimp is a widely spread species which colonizes open habitats in cold temperate zones. The occurrence of homologous recombination in its nuclear genome and several other aspects of its biology, e.g., small size, short life cycle, a relatively easy cultivation procedure, its basal phylogenetic position, an extensive EST database and the fact that it is predominantly haploid make Physcomitrella ideal for molecular and comparative studies (Cove 2005). Moreover, the complete genome sequence has been published (Rensing et al. 2008).
Surprisingly, BLAST analysis of the genome sequence of P. patens revealed a third genomic locus (provisionally designated as PpRpoT3) bearing close similarity to plant phage-type RNA polymerases. We have determined the sequence of this third Physcomitrella RpoT gene and of its transcript. We report here that it encodes an RNA polymerase that is targeted to the mitochondria.
Materials and methods
PpRpoT3 cDNA cloning
The BLAST analysis of the published Physcomitrella whole genome sequence (Rensing et al. 2008) revealed a third genomic locus potentially encoding a phage-type RNA polymerase on PHYPAscaffold_241 (NW_001865497). Putative coding regions were used to generate primers for the amplification of cDNA ends. 3′- and 5′-RACE reactions employed the CapFishing Full-length cDNA Premix kit (Seegene; Eschborn, Germany) and Phusion hot start DNA polymerase (New England Biolabs GmbH, Frankfurt am Main, Germany) according to the protocols of the manufacturers. For cDNA synthesis, 1 μg of polyA-enriched Physcomitrella protonema RNA was reverse transcribed using SuperScript™ III RNase H-reverse transcriptase kit (Life Technologies, Darmstadt, Germany). Notably, 5′RACE reverse transcription employed two gene-specific primers annealing to the in silico-predicted lower exon 1 region (5racePpT3gsp1/5racePpT3gsp2). While 3′- and 5′-RACE adaptor primers were provided in the kit, gene-specific primers (gsp) were employed for two rounds of PCR to enhance the specificity of the reaction (see Supplementary Table 1). To verify the cloned transcript ends, a primer walking strategy was used until no specific amplification products were obtained after a second round of 35 PCR cycles (5racePpT3gsp7 and 3racePpT3gsp4). After the identification of both PpRpoT3 transcript termini, the whole PpRpoT3 coding region (the complete cDNA sequence was deposited in the EMBL database under accession number Hx2000029983) was amplified using primers PpT3fw1 and PpT3m3169, and the fragment was cloned into pDrive (pDriveRpoT3cDNA). To map the PpRpoT3 gene structure, subsequent sequencing of the whole PpRpoT3 cDNA employed primers used in previous steps of the cloning procedure. Sequencing primers are shown in Supplementary Table 1.
Generation of PpRPOT3-GFP fusion constructs
To generate the pPpRPOT3-GFP constructs and to drive the expression of the fusion protein PpRPOT3-GFP, a PpRpoT3 fragment containing the full 5′UTR, and encoding 78 N-terminal amino acids of PpRPOT3 was amplified from pDriveRpoT3cDNA using primers PpT3gfpfwXbaI (cactctagaCTGCTTGCGTTGCTTTGC) and PpT3gfprevSalI (atagtcgacCAAGGATGTCTTCCAGAGGTG; lowercase letters correspond to non-annealing nucleotides for the introduction of restriction sites). PpT3gfpXba1-2 (cactctagaGAGTTGAATACTATGTGGC) was used for the amplification of a construct lacking all, but 12 nt of the 5′UTR. PCR products were XbaI/SalI-digested and ligated into the SpeI/SalI-cleaved vector pOL−GFP S65C (Peeters et al. 2000). Mitochondrial CoxIV-GFP and plastidial RecA-GFP (Peeters et al. 2000) control constructs were kindly provided by Ian Small (UWA, Perth, Australia).
Transient expression in Arabidopsis protoplasts and microscopy
Protoplasts were isolated from Arabidopsis thaliana leaves grown for 4 weeks under long day conditions (23 °C, 16/8 h light/dark) as described before (Yoo et al. 2007). Briefly, 100 μl protoplasts (2 × 106 protoplasts/ml) were transfected with 20 μg pOL-PpRpoT3gfp plasmid in 40 % polyethylene glycol 4000, 0.8 M mannitol, and 1 mM CaCl2. Transformed protoplasts were kept in the dark and examined 48 h after transfection by confocal laser scanning microscopy with a Leica TCS SP2 using 488-nm excitation and two-channel measurement of emission from 510 to 580 nm (green/GFP) and >590 nm (red/chlorophyll).
Phylogenetic analyses
Sequence information was retrieved from the National Center for Biotechnology Information (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/BLAST) employing the BLASTP and TBLASTN algorithms and from the Joint Genome Institute (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/). For translation and alignment, sequences were subsequently imported into GENEIOUS (Drummond et al. 2010). Multiple protein sequence alignments were generated using CLUSTALW (Thompson et al. 1994) implemented in the GENEIOUS package. The phylogeny was reconstructed by the PhyML algorithm V3.0 (Guindon et al. 2010) with 100 bootstrap replicates. The aligned sequence data comprised 894 amino acids lacking only the less conserved N-terminal portion of the proteins. For the reconstruction, the LG amino acid replacement model was employed. A discrete gamma distribution with four categories was assumed to approximate the continuous function (shape: 1,004/inv: 0,138). Essentially, the same tree topology was obtained employing Bayesian (Ronquist and Huelsenbeck 2003) and neighbor joining analysis (Saitou and Nei 1987). The tree was rooted with the four green algae RPOT proteins indicated. Tree reconstruction was based on a multiple alignment of 54 plant RPOT sequences (Supplementary Table 2).
Results and discussion
Characterization of the third gene encoding a phage-type RNA polymerase in Physcomitrella
To identify the precise position and length of the open reading frame encoding the third phage-type RNA polymerase, we determined the full-length cDNA sequence. Transcripts of the gene were present in RNA preparations from protonema tissue, i.e., the RpoT3 gene is active. The full-length cDNA comprising 3,496 bp was obtained by aligning fragments produced by RT–PCR and RACE. It constitutes 235 bp of untranslated leader, the protein coding sequence of 3,030 bp, and a 3′-untranslated sequence of 231 bp. Therefore, the predicted PpRPOT3 protein comprises 1,010 amino acids and it shows 46–48 % identity with the three Arabidopsis RPOTs. While the two Physcomitrella RPOT polypeptides RPOTmp1 and RPOTmp2 share 59 % identity, the scores for RPOT3 are significantly lower; 53 % with RPOTmp1 and 51 % with RPOTmp2. Interestingly, the 46–48 % identity scores of RPOT3 with the three Arabidopsis RPOTs are higher then those of RPOTmp1 (43–47 %) and RPOTmp2 (43–46 %). Figure 1 shows an alignment of the Arabidopsis and Physcomitrella RPOT polymerases demonstrating the high degree of similarity and the conservation of functionally essential residues and motifs in PpRPOT3. Thus, the derived amino acid sequence is consistent with PpRpoT3 encoding a functional RNA polymerase. To elucidate the gene structure of the third Physcomitrella RpoT gene, the cDNA was aligned with the genomic sequence taken from the JGI genome browser (http://genome.jgi-psf.org/). The two published RpoT genes RpoTmp1 (7.3 kb) and RpoTmp2 (8.7 kb) contain 18 and 20 introns, respectively (Richter et al. 2002). In PpRpoT3 (7.3 kb), only 17 introns are found. Compared with the RpoT gene structure of flowering plants, PpRpoT3 contains one additional intron in the 5′ non-coding part of the gene, intron 4 and 16 (as of Arabidopsis RpoTm) are missing in PpRpoT3 (Fig. 2).
The insertion sites of all other common introns are precisely conserved relative to the aligned amino acids sequences between PpRpoT3, the two other Physcomitrella genes and those of Arabidopsis (Fig. 2).
Phylogenetic analysis
No conclusive evidence concerning the phylogenetic relationship of the three Physcomitrella RpoT genes can be inferred from the exon–intron structure. While the acquisition of intron 1 (as of PpRpoTmp1) is in favour of a closer relationship of PpRpoTmp1 and PpRpoTmp2, PpRpoTmp1 and PpRpoT3 both share the lack of the highly conserved intron 16 (as of Arabidopsis RpoTm). To assess the phylogenetic positioning of the polymerase characterised in the present study more specifically, phylogenetic trees were reconstructed applying the Bayesian algorithm as well as maximum-likelihood (PhyML) analysis. Tree reconstruction was based on a multiple alignment of 54 plant RPOT sequences (see Fig. 3; Supplementary Table 2). Bayesian as well as PhyML analysis resulted in essentially the same tree topology (not shown). Figure 3 shows the rooted (green algae) consensus tree of the PhyML analysis in which angiosperm RPOT polymerases constitute two clearly discernible groups: one consisting of plastid-localised polymerases, and the other of mitochondrial-localised and dual-targeted enzymes, while Selaginella and Physcomitrella polymerases do not belong to these clusters. All Physcomitrella RPOTs appear to be the result of two Physcomitrella lineage specific duplication events, with the PpRpoTm/RpoTmp1 duplication as the more recent one. Furthermore, conservation of the plastid-targeting properties for both dual-targeted proteins or, alternatively, independent acquisition of plastid-targeting properties for both RPOTmp1 and RPOTmp2 is supportive for their functional importance in Physcomitrella. The lack of a dual-targeted RPOTmp both in Nuphar and in monocots supports the view that the RPOTmp enzyme detected in eudicots is an evolutionary novelty due to an RpoTm gene duplication that likely occurred only after the separation of monocots and eudicots. The putative plastid-targeting sequences as present in two of the three Physcomitrella RPOT proteins are, therefore, clearly species- or lineage-specific convergent inventions. Importantly, multiple mitochondrial RNA polymerases as found in Physcomitrella and eudicots are identified in Nuphar as well. The fixation of duplicated RpoT genes led to a convergent multiplicity of mitochondrial RNAPs in Nuphar, Physcomitrella and eudicots, previously not found in any other eukaryotic lineage.
Mitochondrial localisation of the phage-type RNA polymerase
While both PpRpoTmp1 and PpRpoTmp2 contain two in-frame AUG codons in their 5′ ends, potentially facilitating dual targeting properties due to alternative translational starts, for PpRpoT3 only one putative start codon was identified. Computer analysis of the putative transit peptide (Emanuelsson et al. 2000) produced high scores (0.8–0.9) for mitochondrial localisation and no indication for targeting to chloroplasts. To experimentally investigate the subcellular localisation of the PpRpoT3-encoded polypeptide, the putative N-terminal transit peptide was fused in-frame to the GFP coding region. Furthermore, an additional construct was generated in such a way that it contained the whole native 5′UTR sequence together with the sequence encoding the putative transit peptide, allowing for translational initiation at potential non-AUG start codons and to rule out GFP localisation due to forced translational initiation (Kabeya and Sato 2005). After transfection of the PpRpoT3-GFP fusion constructs into Arabidopsis protoplasts transient expression was monitored by confocal laser scanning microscopy. Three plasmids encoding GFP only (Fig. 4b), a mitochondrial Cox4-GFP and a plastid RecA-GFP (Fig. 4d) fusion protein were used for reference transformations of Arabidopsis protoplasts. Protoplasts expressing PpRPOT3-GFP from both constructs displayed green fluorescence of small structures (shown in Fig. 3a for the construct with 5′UTR) resembling the fluorescent mitochondria of protoplasts synthesizing Cox4-GFP (Fig. 4c), substantiating a mitochondrial localisation of PpRPOT3. The obtained data indicates that the N-terminal part of PpRPOT3 has mitochondrial targeting properties and strongly suggests that RPOT3 is exclusively targeted to mitochondria in planta. Therefore, PpRPOT3 will be subsequently designated as PpRPOTm.
In the light of the existence of only one RpoT gene in Selaginella, the finding of three genes encoding organellar phage-type RNA polymerases in the nuclear genome of P. patens comes as a surprise (Fig. 5). It raises the question as to the functions of three RNA polymerases (PpRPOTm, PpRPOTmp1, PpRPOTmp2) in mitochondria and of possibly also three enzymes in chloroplasts (PEP and the putative NEP activities PpRPOTmp1 and PpRPOTmp2 in addition to PEP). Multiple RPOT activities per organelle appear as a common feature of eudicotyledonous plants and Physcomitrella. Whether this complexity is due to an evolutionary trend, adaptive or neutral, remains to be shown. The identification of different but overlapping functions of RPOT proteins in plastids as well as in mitochondria of Arabidopsis is only the first step to answer such a question, since a regulatory role sensu stricto for these enzymes remains to be shown (Liere et al. 2011). Physcomitrella RpoT deletion mutants and Physcomitrella lines with manipulated higher or lower RPOT activities might offer a way to show if a similar division of labour evolved in case of the three mitochondrial RNA polymerases in Physcomitrella as compared to the two Arabidopsis enzymes (Kühn et al. 2009).
