Hypocotyl phototropism is redundantly mediated by phot1 and phot2, two blue light receptor phototropins, under the intensity of blue light>1 μmol m−2 s−1. As light intensity increases, phot1 inhibits the phot2-mediated response. To date, only Arabidopsis Root Phototropism2 (RPT2) has been shown to participate in phot1-mediated inhibition of phototropism. To dissect the signaling network that underlies phot1-mediated inhibition, we carried out a yeast two-hybrid (Y2H) screening assay for RPT2 interacting proteins and identified J-domain protein required for chloroplast accumulation response 1 (JAC1). The interaction between JAC1 and RPT2 was verified by bimolecular fluorescence complementation and Co-IP assays. JAC1 is expressed mainly in cotyledons and hypocotyls. Like RPT2, JAC1 can be induced by blue light, suggesting that it may function similarly to RPT2 in the inhibition of phototropism. Genetic analysis showed that jac1 mutation significantly enhanced the hypocotyl bending of phot1 mutants towards intermediate-intensity blue light, and this effect was inhibited by the constitutive expression of JAC1 in the phot1 jac1 mutant. The phot1 rpt2 double mutant also exhibited enhanced phototropism compared with the phot1 mutant. Taken together, our data clearly demonstrate that JAC1 cooperates with RPT2 to negatively regulate hypocotyl phototropism in plants and may act either downstream of or in parallel with phot1.
