Amide-linked conjugates of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) have been identified in most plant species. They function in storage, inactivation or inhibition of the growth regulator auxin. We investigated how the major known endogenous amide-linked IAA conjugates with auxin-like activity act in auxin signaling and what role ILR1-like proteins play in this process in Arabidopsis. We used a genetically encoded auxin sensor to show that IAA-Leu, IAA-Ala and IAA-Phe act through the TIR1-dependent signaling pathway. Furthermore, by using the sensor as a free IAA reporter, we followed conjugate hydrolysis mediated by ILR1, ILL2 and IAR3 in plant cells and correlated the activity of the hydrolases with a modulation of auxin response. The conjugate preferences that we observed are in agreement with available  in vitro  data for ILR1. Moreover, we identified IAA-Leu as an additional substrate for IAR3 and showed that ILL2 has a more moderate kinetic performance than observed  in vitro . Finally, we proved that IAR3, ILL2 and ILR1 reside in the endoplasmic reticulum, indicating that in this compartment the hydrolases regulate the rates of amido-IAA hydrolysis which results in activation of auxin signaling.

Hydrolases of the ILR1-like family of Arabidopsis thaliana modulate auxin response by regulating auxin homeostasis in the endoplasmic reticulum
