| Abstract |
SWEET sucrose transporters play important roles in the allocation of sucrose in plants. Some SWEETs were shown to also mediate transport of the plant growth regulator gibberellin (GA). The close physiological relationship between sucrose and GA raised the questions of whether there is a functional connection and whether one or both of the substrates are physiologically relevant. To dissect these two activities, molecular dynamics were used to map the binding sites of sucrose and GA in the pore of SWEET13 and predicted binding interactions that might be selective for sucrose or GA. Transport assays confirmed these predictions. In transport assays, the N76Q mutant had 7x higher relative GA3 activity, and the S142N mutant only transported sucrose. The impaired pollen viability and germination in sweet13;14 double mutants were complemented by the sucrose-selective SWEET13S142N, but not by the SWEET13N76Q mutant, indicating that sucrose is the physiologically relevant substrate and that GA transport capacity is dispensable in the context of male fertility. Therefore, GA supplementation to counter male sterility may act indirectly via stimulating sucrose supply in male sterile mutants. These findings are also relevant in the context of the role of SWEETs in pathogen susceptibility.
