摘要: Identifying key genes involved in Cadmium (Cd) response pathways in plants and developing low-Cd-accumulating cultivars may be the most effective and eco-friendly strategy to tackle the problem of Cd pollution in crops. In our previous study, Stressseventy subfamily A 4 (SSA4) was identified to be associated with Cd tolerance in yeast. Here, we investigated the mechanism of SSA4 in regulating Cd tolerance in yeast. ScSSA4 binds to POre Membrane 34 (POM34), a key component of nuclear pore complex (NPC), and translocates from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, where it regulates the expression of its downstream gene, Viable in a Hal3 Sit4 background 1 (VHS1), resulting in reduced Cd accumulation in yeast cells. Additionally, we identified a Chinese cabbage SSA4 gene, BrSSA4c, which could enhance the Cd tolerance in Chinese cabbage. This study offers new insights into the regulatory mechanisms of Cd tolerance in yeast, a model organism, and paves the way for the genetic enhancement of Cd tolerance in Chinese cabbage.
