Intercellular transport of auxin is mediated by influx and efflux carriers in the plasma membrane and subjected to developmental and environmental regulation. Here, using the auxin-sensitive Arabidopsis thaliana root hair cell system and the tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum) suspension cell system, we demonstrate that the protein kinase PINOID (PID) positively regulates auxin efflux. Overexpression of PID (PIDox) or the auxin efflux carrier component PINFORMED3 (PIN3, PIN3ox), specifically in the root hair cell, greatly suppressed root hair growth. In both PIDox and PIN3ox transformants, root hair growth was nearly restored to wild-type levels by the addition of auxin, protein kinase inhibitors, or auxin efflux inhibitors. Localization of PID or PIN3 at the cell boundary was disrupted by brefeldin A and staurosporine. A mutation in the kinase domain abrogated the ability of PID to localize at the cell boundary and to inhibit root hair growth. These results suggest that PIDox- or PIN3ox- enhanced auxin efflux results in a shortage of intracellular auxin and a subsequent inhibition of root hair growth. In an auxin efflux assay using transgenic tobacco suspension cells, PIDox or PIN3ox also enhanced auxin efflux. Collectively, these results suggest that PID positively regulates cellular auxin efflux, most likely by modulating the trafficking of PIN and/or some other molecular partners involved in auxin efflux.
