The tropical origins of the grape (VitisviniferaL.) make it vulnerable to low temperatures, which constitute a serious threat to grape production. Our knowledge of the molecular basis of cold tolerance in perennial grape species is limited. The E3 ubiquitin ligase HIGH EXPRESSION OF OSMOTICALLY RESPONSIVE GENE 1 (HOS1) has been demonstrated to negatively regulate cold responsiveness, but the understanding of theHOS1in grape remains fragmentary. Here, we initially evaluated the expression ofHOS1in cold-tolerantVitis amurensis(VaHOS1) and susceptibleV. vinifera(VvHOS1) cultivars and discovered their responses to cold stress differed significantly. The two grapeHOS1genes exhibit a high degree of sequence similarity (98.77% at the amino acid level) but their lengths (313-bp insertion/deletion polymorphism) and promoter sequences are substantially different (91.96%). This 313-bp region significantly affects the differential expression ofHOS1betweenV. viniferaandV. amurensis. The 313-bp deletion abolishedVvHOS1promoter activity in promoter-GUS assay of transgenicArabidopsis. Moreover, 313-bp fragment might function as a positive core region to affect promoter activity ofVvHOS1to involved in different developmental stages and cold stress. In addition, DNA pull-down and mass spectrometry (MS) assay revealed the potential regulatory proteins may bind to the 313-bp core promoter region. We show that the two linker histone H1 genes (designated asVvHH1: LOC100853898 and LOC100259836), and one sister chromatid cohesion protein PDS5 homolog B (designated asVvPDS5B: LOC100853350), which associates with the core promoter region, decreases or activatesGUSexpression. This work elucidates the expression features of theHOS1promoter from genusVitisand further identifies a core region required for the promoter activity viatrans-activation or suppression of candidate regulatory proteins.
