The chemical composition of extracellular polymers released by cells of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv W38) adapted to a medium containing 30% polyethylene glycol 8000 (-28 bar) or 428 millimolar NaCl (-23 bar) was compared to the composition of those released by unadapted cells. Unadapted cells released uronic acid-rich material of high molecular weight, arabinogalactan-proteins, low molecular weight fragments of hemicellulosic polysaccharides, and a small amount of protein. Cells adapted to grow in medium containing NaCl released arabinogalactan and large amounts of protein but not the uronic acid-rich material, and cells adapted to grow in polyethylene glycol released only small amounts of an arabinogalactan of much lower molecular weight and some protein. Secretion of all material was nearly blocked by polyethylene glycol, but when cells were transferred to a medium containing iso-osmolar mannitol, they again released extracellular polymers at rates similar to those of unadapted cells. Like cells adapted to NaCl, however, these cells released arabinogalactan and large amounts of protein but only small amounts of the uronic acid-rich material. Media of NaCl-adapted cells were enriched in 40, 29, and 11 kilodalton polypeptides. CaCl(2) extracted the 40 and 11 kilodalton polypeptides from walls of unadapted cells, but the 29 kilodalton polypeptide was found only in the medium of the NaCl-adapted cells. Accumulation of low molecular weight polysaccharide fragments in the medium was also substantially reduced in both NaCl- and polyethylene glycol-adapted cells, and specifically, the material was composed of lower proportions of xyloglucan fragments. Our results indicate that adaptation to saline or water stress results in inhibition of both the hydrolysis of hemicellulosic xyloglucan and release of uronic acid-rich material into the culture medium.
