Ubiquitination is an important post-translational protein modification that is known to play critical roles in diverse biological processes in eukaryotes. The RING E3 ligases function in ubiquitination pathways, and are involved in a large diversity of physiological processes in higher plants. The RING domain-containing E3 ligase AtRDUF1 was previously identified as a positive regulator of ABA-mediated dehydration stress response in Arabidopsis. In this study, we report that AtRDUF1 is involved in plant responses to salt stress. AtRDUF1 expression is upregulated by salt treatment. Overexpression of AtRDUF1 in Arabidopsis results in an insensitivity to salt and osmotic stresses during germination and seedling growth. A double knock-out mutant of AtRDUF1 and its close homolog AtRDUF2 (atrduf1atrduf2) was hypersensitive to salt treatment. The expression levels of the stress-response genes RD29B, RD22, and KIN1 are more sensitive to salt treatment in AtRDUF1 overexpression plants. In summary, our data show that AtRDUF1 positively regulates responses to salt stress in Arabidopsis.
