Figure S2. Sequence Alignment for BdSLAC1, AtSLAC1 and HiTehA

Structure-based sequence alignment for BdSLAC1 (Barachypodium distachyon), AtSLAC1 (Arabidopsis thaliana) and HiTehA (Haemophilus influenzae). The structures for both BdSLAC1 and HiTehA have been used to restrict sequence gaps to inter-helical segments. Superior coils define extents of the BdSLAC1 helical segments, and the helical regions for HiTehA are indicated by underscore. Boxes are drawn for pore lining residues. Red letters mark conserved positive-charged residues in the TMs connecting loops on the cytoplasmic side. The residues that are identified as phosphorylation sites by mass spectrometry are highlighted in green. The kink-mediated residues in the middle of TM helices are highlight in yellow. A residue insertion (A146) in HiTehA, resulting in a wider p-helical turn in the middle of TM5, is highlighted in magenta. The disordered region in BdSLAC1 is highlight in cyan.

Figure S3. Electrophysiological Measurements for Arabidopsis SLAC1::OST1

(A) Current-voltage (I-V) relations from oocytes expressing wild type or mutant channels. Wild-type SLAC::OST1 (black), SLAC::OST1 (D160A) (blue), ABI alone (magenta) and co-expression of SLAC::OST1/ABI1 (red). (B) Mean chloride currents, measured at -90 mV, are shown comparing SLAC1::OST1, SLAC1::OST1 (D160A), and SLAC1::OST1/ABI1 co-expression. The OST1 kinase stimulates macroscopic currents in SLAC1, while the functionally impaired OST1 (D160A) abolished the channel activity. This observation validates SLAC1 activation by OST1. Co-expression of SLAC1::OST1 with ABI1 shows no conductance confirming ABI1 inhibition to OST1 kinase activity.

Figure S4. Mass Spectrometry Analyses of Phosphorylated Peptides

(A) Purification of Arabidopsis SLAC1::OST1 fusion protein from yeast S. pombe. To prepare SLAC1::OST1 fusion protein, Arabidopsis SLAC1 was fused directly to OST1, and this construct was introduced into a modified pREP1 vector with a C-terminal Flag-10XHis tag. The resulting construct was transformed into S. pombe for expression.The fusion protein was purified by Ni2+-affinity chromatography and analysed on 12% SDS-PAGE. (B-F) The band corresponding to the SLAC1::OST1 fusion protein, as shown in (A), was recovered, subjected to tryptic digestion, and further analysed with a nano LC-MS/MS system. At least 14 sites were found being phosphorylated, including 13 in the N-terminal domain and 1 at the C-terminus. Six of these residues were shown to be critical for SLAC1 activation in our electrophysiological studies in Xenopus oocytes. MS/MS spectra of the five phospho-peptides were shown, with m/z 764.87, 853.36, 422.21, 590.27 and 915.47, representing peptides that contain phosphorylated S59 (B), S86 (C), S113 (D), T114/S116 (E) and S116/S120 (F), respectively.

Mutations in SLAC1::OST1 are shown and coloured as indicated. (B) Current-voltage (I-V) relations for Arabidopsis SLAC1-13A::OST1 mutant channels. SLAC1-13A::OST1 contains 13 mutations at the N-terminus of SLAC1, including: S6A, S38A, S59A, S86A, S113A, T114A, S116A, S120A, S134A, T137A, T142A, S146A and S152A, whereas F450A SLAC1-13A::OST1 contains the additional F450A mutation. F450A SLAC1::OST1 served as a positive control for proper surface expression of the SLAC1-13A::OST1 construct. This observation shows that the lack of current in SLAC1-13A::OST1 is due to loss of phosphorylation, rather than failure of surface expression in oocytes.

Materials and Methods

Cloning and Expression in Yeast S. pombe

SLAC1 proteins from 15 plant species were selected, corresponding cDNAs

were synthesized and cloned into a modified pREP1 vector, which contains a

TEV protease cleavage site, a FLAG tag and a deca-histidine tag at the C-

terminus (34). The resulting constructs were transformed into a leucine

auxotrophic S. pombe strain by the lithium acetate method, and standard media

for fission yeast were used. The transformants were negatively selected by

plating on EMM plates without leucine, but 25mM thiamine inhibits the promoter.

Among those, BdSLAC1 had the best expression level, and passed for further

biochemical and structural studies.

Scaled-up Production and Purification

In brief, for preparation of the seed, the transformed yeast S. pombe cells were

inoculated into ~ 150 ml EMM culture medium supplemented with 25 mM

thiamine, and shaken at 200 rpm, 30 °C for ~ 24 hours. For protein expression

and scale up, the cells were spun down, and washed with sterile ddH2O twice

before further inoculation to large culture of ~ 0.5-1.0 liter. Cells were first grown

for ~12 hours while at 30° C and 200 rpm, then supplemented with an equal

volume of fresh media and continued in growth for another 12 hours, and finally

harvested by centrifugation and stored at -80°C for future use.

Cells were suspended in lysis buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl pH 8.0 and 200 mM

NaCl) at 1:10 (w/v) ratio and then lysed by passing through a high-pressure cell

Page 16: Supplemental Information Structure and Activity of SLAC1

16

disrupter (JNBIO, Guangzhou) at ~15-20,000 psi 4 times. Cell debris was

removed by centrifugation at 10,000 rpm for 20 min, and the supernatant was

subjected to ultra-centrifugation at 150,000g for 1 hour for membrane isolation.

The membrane fraction was homogenized in a solubilization buffer containing

40 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) and 150 mM NaCl at 1:10 (w/v) ratio. To prepare

SMALP nanoparticles of BdSLAC1, SMA was added to the cell lysate at 2%

SMA (w/v) final concentration, and the mixture was stirred gently at room

temperature for 2 hours. The insoluble matter was removed by

ultracentrifugation at 150,000g for 30 min, and the supernatant was loaded to a

1ml HiTrap Ni2+-NTA affinity column (GE Healthcare), pre-equilibrated with

solubilization buffer. After a 10 column-volume buffer wash, the protein was

eluted with 10 column volumes of 500 mM imidazole in solubilization buffer. The

protein sample was concentrated to around 5 mg/ml for further purification on a

Superose-6 10/300 GL (GE Healthcare) column without addition of detergents

or SMAs in solubilization buffer. The elution was analyzed by SDS-PAGE, and

peak fractions for the resulting BdSLAC1 SMALP were concentrated to ~ 2

mg/ml for protein for making cryo-EM grids.

Cryo-EM Structure Determination

3µL of purified BdSLAC1 (1.8mg/ml) was applied to a plasma-cleaned Quantifoil

UltrAuFoil holey gold grid (0.6µm holes with 1 µm spacing) in a TFS Vitrobot,

with a blot time of 7s and a wait time of 30s. Data were collected on a Titan Krios

equipped with a Gatan K2 direct electron detector, operated in electron counting

Page 17: Supplemental Information Structure and Activity of SLAC1

mode. 7265 50-frame stacks, each with a total electron exposure of 71.3 e-/Å2,

were collected at a nominal magnification of 130kx and a calibrated pixel size of

1.0475 Å. Initial motion correction was carried out using the Relion 3 CPU-based

implementation of Motioncor2 (46), and whole frame CTF estimation was

performed using CTFFIND4 (47). Approximately 1000 particles were manually

picked in Relion and 2D classes derived from these particles were used as

templates for picking the entire dataset using relion_autopick. 3M initial particles

(4x binned) were subjected to extensive 2D classification in cryoSPARC (48),

performing separate classification runs for top views and side views, giving a

final set of 110k high quality particles. After re-extraction at full scale, a single-

class ab initio reconstruction run without imposed symmetry produced a volume

with the features of a trimeric channel. Using the non-uniform refinement module

of cryoSPARC and this set of particles, the ab initio model refined to a

reconstruction at 3.29 Å. Further improvement was achieved to 3.09 Å by

Bayesian polishing in Relion(49), 3.02 Å after refinement of per particle defocus,

and 2.97 Å after cleaning up the particle set further by a multi class ab initio

reconstruction followed by heterogeneous refinement. An initial model was

generated from the structure of TehA using Phyre (50). The model was initially

fit to the map as a rigid body in Chimera (51), and flexible fitting and model

completion was carried out in Coot (52). The final map was sharpened with

phenix.auto_sharpen, and the model was refined with phenix.real_space_refine

Page 18: Supplemental Information Structure and Activity of SLAC1

18

(53). Validation statistics of the final model were calculated with phenix.validate

and EMringer (54).

Electrophysiology

All constructs were cloned into plasmid pGHME2, which contains inserts of 5’

UTR (60nt) and 3’ UTR (300nt) from the Xenopus beta-globin gene in the

expression cassette, linearized and transcribed into cRNA using T7 polymerase

(33). Oocytes were injected with indicated cRNA solution as followings:when

injected with cRNA of SLAC1 or SLAC1::OST1, their concentrations were

diluted to 1.0 mg ml-1, and injected 36 nl of cRNA for each oocyte; when co-

injected with cRNAs of SLAC1 (Wild-type or mutant) with OST1, or

SLAC1::OST1 with ABI1, their concentrations were diluted to 2.0 mg ml-1, then

mixed at the ratio of 1:1, and injected 36 nl of cRNA for each oocyte.

Two-microelectrode voltage-clamp recordings were performed 2 days after

cRNA injection to measure SLAC1 currents as described (33). The

microelectrode solutions contained 3 M KCl. For voltage-clamp current

recordings, the bath solution contained 1 mM MgCl2, 1 mM CaCl2, 10 mM

Tris/MES (pH5.6) and 30 mM CsCl; Osmolarity was adjusted with D-mannitol to

220 mOsmol*kg-1. The bath electrode was a 3 M KCl agar bridge. Voltage-clamp

currents were measured in response to 7.5-s-long voltage steps to test

potentials that ranged from -110 mV to 70 mV in 20 mV increments. Prior to

each voltage step the membrane was held at 0 mV for 1.60 s, and following

each voltage step the membrane was returned to 0 mV for 2.0 s. I–V relations

Page 19: Supplemental Information Structure and Activity of SLAC1

19

for AtSLAC1 channels were generated from currents measured 0.5 s after the

start of each test voltage step.

Current responses from voltage-clamped oocyte experiments are directly

proportional to the amount of cRNA injection for a particular genetic construct,

and proportional to the moles of individual genetic constructs when the masses

per construct differ. With a fixed mass of injection, the mass, the number of

transcribed channels per oocytes will be inversely proportional to the construct

length. As there are 3126 nt per SLAC1::OST1 construct vs. 2031 nt per

SLAC1 construct, the ratio of SLAC1::OST1 to SLAC1 channels is 2031/3126

from the fixed amount of SLAC1 cRNA injected into each oocyte. We normalize

our results to the currents from SLAC1 injections; i.e. measured currents from

SLAC1::OST1 constructs were increased by the factor of 1.539.

Mass Spectrometry Analysis

Protein bands were excised from SDS-PAGE gels and digested with trypsin

according to a modified procedure(54). In brief, the protein-containing gel was

cut into pieces, and de-stained in 25mM ammonium bicarbonate / 50%

acetonitrile buffer. The proteins were reduced with 10 mM DTT at 56° C for 1

hour and alkylated with 55 mM iodo-acetamide at room temperature for 1 hour

in the dark. Trypsin (Sigma T1426; enzyme-to-substrate ratio 1:50) in 25 mM

ammonium bicarbonate was applied to digest the peptides at 37°C overnight.

Digested peptides were extracted from the gel with stripping buffer (5%

trifluoroacetic acid and 50% acetonitrile) by sonication. The liquid was dried by

Page 20: Supplemental Information Structure and Activity of SLAC1

20

SpeedVac, and peptides were re-solubilized in 0.1% formic acid and filtered by

0.45 μm centrifugal filter.

The peptides were analyzed by LC-MS/MS using LTQ-Orbitrap elite mass

spectrometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) coupled to an online Easy-nLC 1000

(Thermo Fisher Scientific) with enabled multistage activation. Phosphopeptides

were identified by searching the Arabidopsis thaliana proteome sequences

(downloadRed from TAIR) using the Thermo Scientific Proteome DiscovererTM

software (version 1.4).
