Guard cell

'''Guard cells''' are specialized cells in the epidermis of leaves, stems and other organs of [[Embryophyte|land plants]] that are used to control gas exchange. They are produced in pairs with a gap between them that forms a [[stoma|stomatal pore]]. The stomatal pores are largest when water is freely available and the guard cells become [[turgor pressure|turgid]], and closed when water availability is critically low and the guard cells become flaccid. [[Photosynthesis]] depends on the [[diffusion]] of [[carbon dioxide]] (CO2) from the air through the stomata into the [[mesophyll tissue]]s. [[Oxygen]] (O2), produced as a [[By-product|byproduct]] of photosynthesis, exits the plant via the stomata. When the stomata are open, water is lost by evaporation and must be replaced via the [[transpiration stream]], with water taken up by the roots. Plants must balance the amount of CO2 absorbed from the air with the water loss through the stomatal pores, and this is achieved by both active and passive control of guard cell [[turgor pressure]] and stomatal pore size.<ref name="Schroeder">Schroeder JI, Kwak JM, & Allen GJ (2001) Guard cell abscisic acid signaling and engineering drought hardiness in plants.

== Guard cell function == Guard cells are cells surrounding each [[stoma]]. They help to regulate the rate of transpiration by opening and closing the stomata. Light is the main trigger for the opening or closing.{{citation needed|date=December 2024}} Guard cells are bean-shaped, with a thicker inner side (i.e. the side closest to the pore) and a thinner outer side{{clarification needed|date=December 2024}} As water enters the cell, the thin side bulges outward more than the thicker side does. Thus the guard cell bends outwards and the stoma opens.

Guard cells contain [[phototropin]] proteins which are serine and threonine kinases with blue-light photoreceptor activity. Phototrophins contain two light, oxygen, and voltage sensor (LOV) domains, and are part of the [[PAS domain]] superfamily.<ref name="Kinoshita-2003">{{Cite journal|last1=Kinoshita|first1=Toshinori|last2=Emi|first2=Takashi|last3=Tominaga|first3=Misumi|last4=Sakamoto|first4=Koji|last5=Shigenaga|first5=Ayako|last6=Doi|first6=Michio|last7=Shimazaki|first7=Ken-ichiro|date=2003-12-01|title=Blue-Light- and Phosphorylation-Dependent Binding of a 14-3-3 Protein to Phototropins in Stomatal Guard Cells of Broad Bean|journal=Plant Physiology|volume=133|issue=4|pages=1453–1463|doi=10.1104/pp.103.029629|issn=0032-0889|pmid=14605223|pmc=300702}}</ref> The phototropins trigger many responses such as phototropism, chloroplast movement and leaf expansion as well as stomatal opening.<ref name="Kinoshita-2003" /> Not much was known about how these photoreceptors worked prior to around 1998.

As protons are being pumped out, a negative electrical potential was formed across the plasma membrane. This hyperpolarization of the membrane allowed the accumulation of charged [[potassium]] (K+) ions and [[chloride]] (Cl−) ions, which in turn, increases the solute concentration causing the water potential to decrease. The negative water potential allows for osmosis to occur in the guard cell, so that water enters, allowing the cell to become turgid.{{Citation needed|date=August 2023}}

Opening and closure of the stomatal pore is mediated by changes in the [[turgor]] pressure of the two guard cells. The turgor pressure of guard cells is controlled by movements of large quantities of ions and sugars into and out of the guard cells. Guard cells have cell walls of varying thickness(its inner region, adjacent to the stomatal pore is thicker and highly cutinized<ref>{{Cite web|title=Structure of Plants and Fungi |author=Digitális Tankönyvtár|url=https://regi.tankonyvtar.hu/hu/tartalom/tamop412A/2011-0073_structure_of_plants_fungi/ch04s02.html|access-date=2021-04-02|website=regi.tankonyvtar.hu|language=hu}}</ref>) and differently oriented cellulose microfibers, causing them to bend outward when they are turgid, which in turn, causes stomata to open. Stomata close when there is an osmotic loss of water, occurring from the loss of K+ to neighboring cells, mainly [[potassium]] (K+) ions.<ref name="Imamura-1943">Imamura S (1943) Untersuchungen uber den mechanismus der turgorschwankung der spaltoffnungs-schliesszellen.

== Water loss and water use efficiency == Water stress (drought and salt stress) is one of the major environmental problems causing severe losses in agriculture and in nature. [[Drought tolerance]] of plants is mediated by several mechanisms that work together, including stabilizing and protecting the plant from damage caused by desiccation and also controlling how much water plants lose through the stomatal pores during drought. A plant hormone, [[abscisic acid]] (ABA), is produced in response to drought. A major type of ABA receptor has been identified.<ref name="Ma-2009">Ma Y, Szostkiewicz I, Korte A, Moes D, Yang Y, Christmann A, & Grill E (2009) Regulators of PP2C phosphatase activity function as abscisic acid sensors.

Science 324:1068-1071.</ref> The plant hormone ABA causes the stomatal pores to close in response to drought, which reduces plant water loss via transpiration to the atmosphere and allows plants to avoid or slow down water loss during droughts. Since guard cells control water loss of plants, the investigation on how stomatal opening and closure is regulated could lead to the development of plants with improved avoidance or slowing of desiccation and better [[Intensive farming#Irrigation|water use efficiency]].<ref name= "Schroeder"/>

ABA is the trigger for the closure of the stomatal opening. To trigger this it activates the release of anions and potassium ions. This influx in anions causes a depolarization of the plasma membrane. This depolarization triggers potassium plus ions in the cell to leave the cell due to the unbalance in the membrane potential. This sudden change in ion concentrations causes the guard cell to shrink which causes the stomata to close which in turn decreases the amount of water lost. All this is a chain reaction according to his research. The increase in ABA causes there to be an increase in calcium ion concentration. Although at first, they thought it was a coincidence they later discovered that this calcium increase is important. They found Ca2+ ions are involved in anion channel activation, which allows for anions to flow into the guard cell. They also are involved in prohibiting proton ATPase from correcting and stopping the membrane from being depolarized. To support their hypothesis that calcium was responsible for all these changes in the cell they did an experiment where they used proteins that inhibited the calcium ions for being produced. If their assumption that calcium is important in these processes they'd see that with the inhibitors they'd see less of the following things. Their assumption was correct and when the inhibitors were used they saw that the proton ATPase worked better to balance the depolarization. They also found that the flow of anions into the guard cells were not as strong. This is important for getting ions to flow into the guard cell. These two things are crucial in causing the stomatal opening to close preventing water loss for the plant.<ref>{{Cite journal|last1=Meimoun|first1=Patrice|last2=Vidal|first2=Guillaume|last3=Bohrer|first3=Anne-Sophie|last4=Lehner|first4=Arnaud|last5=Tran|first5=Daniel|last6=Briand|first6=Joël|last7=Bouteau|first7=François|last8=Rona|first8=Jean-Pierre|date=September 2009|title=Intracellular ca2+ stores could participate to abscisic acid-induced depolarization and stomatal closure in Arabidopsis thaliana|journal=Plant Signaling & Behavior|volume=4|issue=9|pages=830–835|issn=1559-2316|pmc=2802785|pmid=19847112|doi=10.4161/psb.4.9.9396|bibcode=2009PlSiB...4..830M }}</ref>

== Vacuolar ion transport == [[Vacuole]]s are large intracellular storage [[organelle]]s in plants cells. In addition to the ion channels in the plasma membrane, vacuolar ion channels have important functions in regulation of stomatal opening and closure because vacuoles can occupy up to 90% of guard cell's volume. Therefore, a majority of ions are released from vacuoles when stomata are closed.<ref name="MacRobbie-1998">MacRobbie EAC (1998) Signal transduction and ion channels in guard cells. Phil. Trans. Roy.

Guard cells control gas exchange and ion exchange through opening and closing. K+ is one ion that flows both into and out of the cell, causing a positive charge to develop. Malate is one of the main anions used to counteract this positive charge, and it is moved through the AtALMT6 ion channel.<ref name="Meyer-2011">{{Cite journal|last1=Meyer|first1=Stefan|last2=Scholz-Starke|first2=Joachim|last3=Angeli|first3=Alexis De|last4=Kovermann|first4=Peter|last5=Burla|first5=Bo|last6=Gambale|first6=Franco|last7=Martinoia|first7=Enrico|date=2011|title=Malate transport by the vacuolar AtALMT6 channel in guard cells is subject to multiple regulation|journal=The Plant Journal|language=en|volume=67|issue=2|pages=247–257|doi=10.1111/j.1365-313X.2011.04587.x|pmid=21443686|issn=1365-313X|url=https://www.zora.uzh.ch/id/eprint/53840/1/Meyer_PlantJ_2011.pdf}}</ref> AtALMT6 is an aluminum-activated malate transporter that is found in guard cells, specifically in the vacuoles.

There was no phenotypic difference observed between the knockout mutants, the wild type, or the AtALMT6-GFP mutants, and the exact cause for this is not fully known.<ref name="Meyer-2011" />

== Signal transduction == Guard cells perceive and process environmental and endogenous stimuli such as light, humidity, CO2 concentration, temperature, drought, and plant hormones to trigger cellular responses resulting in stomatal opening or closure. These signal transduction pathways determine for example how quickly a plant will lose water during a drought period. Guard cells have become a model for single cell signaling. Using ''[[Arabidopsis thaliana]]'', the investigation of signal processing in single guard cells has become open to the power of [[genetics]].<ref name="Pei-1997"/> Cytosolic and nuclear proteins and chemical messengers that function in stomatal movements have been identified that mediate the transduction of environmental signals thus controlling CO2 intake into plants and plant water loss.<ref name="Schroeder"/><ref name="Hetherington-2003"/><ref name="Shimazaki"/><ref name="Kwak-2008"/> Research on guard cell signal transduction mechanisms is producing an understanding of how plants can improve their response to drought stress by reducing plant water loss.<ref name="Schroeder"/><ref name="Pei etal-1998">Pei Z-M, Ghassemian M, Kwak CM, McCourt P, & Schroeder JI (1998) Role of farnesyltransferase in ABA regulation of guard cell anion channels and plant water loss.

These responses require coordination of numerous cell biological processes in guard cells, including signal reception, ion channel and pump regulation, [[membrane trafficking]], [[Transcription (genetics)|transcription]], [[cytoskeleton|cytoskeletal]] rearrangements and more. A challenge for future research is to assign the functions of some of the identified proteins to these diverse cell biological processes.{{Citation needed|date=August 2023}}
