A dynamic compartment model for xylem loading and long-distance transport of iron explains the effect of kanamycin on metal uptake in Arabidopsis

Arabidopsis plants exposed to the antibiotic kanamycin (Kan) display altered metal homeostasis. Further, mutation of the WBC19 gene leads to increased sensitivity to kanamycin and changes in iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) uptake. Here we propose a model that explain this surprising relationship between metal uptake and exposure to Kan. We first use knowledge about the metal uptake phenomenon to devise a transport and interaction diagram on which we base the construction of a dynamic compartment model. The model has three pathways for loading Fe and its chelators into the xylem. One pathway, involving an unknown transporter, loads Fe as a chelate with citrate (Ci) into the xylem. This transport step can be significantly inhibited by Kan. In parallel, FRD3 transports Ci into the xylem where it can chelate with free Fe. A third critical pathway involves WBC19, which transports metal-nicotianamine (NA), mainly as Fe-NA chelate, and possibly NA itself. To permit quantitative exploration and analysis, we use experimental time series data to parameterize this explanatory and predictive model. Its numerical analysis allows us to predict responses by a double mutant and explain the observed differences between data from wildtype, mutants and Kan inhibition experiments. Importantly, the model provides novel insights into metal homeostasis by permitting the reverse-engineering of mechanistic strategies with which the plant counteracts the effects of mutations and of the inhibition of iron transport by kanamycin
