BREVIPEDICELLUS (BP or KNAT1), a class-I KNOTTED1-like homeobox (KNOX) transcription factor in Arabidopsis thaliana, contributes to shaping the normal inflorescence architecture through negatively regulating other two class-I KNOX genes, KNAT2 and KNAT6. However, the molecular mechanism of BP-mediated transcription regulation remains unclear. In this study, we showed that BP directly interacts with the SWI2/SNF2 chromatin remodeling ATPase BRAHMA (BRM) both in vitro and in vivo. Loss-of-function BRM mutants displayed inflorescence architecture defects, with clustered inflorescences, horizontally orientated pedicels, and short pedicels and internodes, a phenotype similar to the bp mutants. Furthermore, the transcript levels of KNAT2 and KNAT6 were elevated in brm-3, bp-9 and brm-3 bp-9 double mutants. Increased histone H3 lysine 4 tri-methylation (H3K4me3) levels were detected in brm-3, bp-9 and brm-3 bp-9 double mutants. Moreover, BRM and BP co-target to KNAT2 and KNAT6 genes, and BP is required for the binding of BRM to KNAT2 and KNAT6. Taken together, our results indicate that BP interacts with the chromatin remodeling factor BRM to regulate the expression of KNAT2 and KNAT6 in control of inflorescence architecture. BP is a class-I KNOX transcription factor that controls normal inflorescence architecture development by repressing the expression of two KNOX genes, KNAT2 and KNAT6. In this study, we showed that Arabidopsis BP directly interacts with the SWI2/SNF2 chromatin remodeling ATPase BRM. brm and bp mutants displayed similar inflorescence architecture defects, with clustered inflorescences, horizontally orientated pedicels, and short pedicels and internodes. Furthermore, BP and BRM co-target to KNAT2 and KNAT6 genes and repress their expression. This work reveals a new regulatory mechanism that BP associates with BRM in control of inflorescence architecture development.
