title: Comprehensive phosphoproteome analysis in rice and identification of phosphoproteins responsive to different hormones/stresses.
abstract: Phosphoproteins in rice were detected by in vitro protein phosphorylation followed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Forty-four phosphoproteins were detected on a 2D-gel after in vitro protein phosphorylation of the crude extract from rice leaf sheath. Among the phosphoproteins detected, 42 were identified through analysis by Q-TOF MS/MS and/or MALDI-TOF MS. The largest percentage of the identified phosphoproteins are involved in signaling (30%), while 18% are involved in metabolism. When rice seedlings were treated with various hormones and stresses, it was observed that the phosphorylation of 13 proteins was enhanced differentially by different hormone and stress treatments. Furthermore, when the hormone/stress regulated phosphoproteins are compared in rice leaf sheath, leaf blade and root, only cytoplasmic malate dehydrogenase was found to be phosphorylated in all the tissues. Results suggest that in the phosphorylation cascade of rice, glycolytic metabolism processes and Ca(2+)-signaling seem to be important targets in response to hormones and stresses. Furthermore, the direct visualization of phosphoproteins by (32)P-labeling and their mass spectrometric identification provides an accurate and reliable method of analyzing the rice phosphoproteome.
