Phosphorus, taken up by plants as inorganic phosphate (Pi), is an essential but often growth-limiting mineral nutrient for plants. As part of an orchestrated response to improve its acquisition, insufficient Pi supply triggers alterations in root architecture and epidermal cell morphogenesis. Arabidopsis ( Arabidopsis thaliana ) mutants defective in the expression of the OVARIAN TUMOR DOMAIN-CONTAINING DEUBIQUITINATING ENZYME5 ( OTU5 ) exhibited a constitutive Pi deficiency root phenotype, comprising the formation of long and dense root hairs and attenuated primary root growth. Quantitative protein profiling of otu5 and wild-type roots using the isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantification methodology revealed genotype- and Pi-dependent alterations in protein profiles. In otu5 plants, Pi starvation caused a short-root-hair phenotype and decreased abundance of a suite of Pi-responsive root hair-related proteins. Mutant plants also showed the accumulation of proteins involved in chromatin remodeling and altered distribution of reactive oxygen species along the root, which may be causative for the alterations in root hair morphogenesis. The root hair phenotype of otu5 was synergistic to that of actin-related protein6 ( arp6 ), harboring a mutation in the SWR1 chromatin-remodeling complex. Genetic analysis of otu5/arp6 double mutants suggests independent but functionally related roles of the two proteins in chromatin organization. The root hair phenotype of otu5 is not caused by a general up-regulation of the Pi starvation response, indicating that OTU5 acts downstream of or interacts with Pi signaling. It is concluded that OTU5 is involved in the interpretation of environmental information, probably by altering chromatin organization and maintaining redox homeostasis.
