DbPPT: a comprehensive database of protein phosphorylation in plants.

ABSTRACT: As one of the most important protein post-translational modifications, the reversible phosphorylation is critical for plants in regulating a variety of biological processes such as cellular metabolism, signal transduction and responses to environmental stress. Numerous efforts especially large-scale phosphoproteome profiling studies have been contributed to dissect the phosphorylation signaling in various plants, while a large number of phosphorylation events were identified. To provide an integrated data resource for further investigations, here we present a comprehensive database of dbPPT (database of Phosphorylation site in PlanTs, at http://dbppt.biocuckoo.org), which contains experimentally identified phosphorylation sites in proteins from plants. The phosphorylation sites in dbPPT were manually curated from the literatures, whereas datasets in other public databases were also integrated. In total, there were 82,175 phosphorylation sites in 31,012 proteins from 20 plant organisms in dbPPT, presenting a larger quantity of phosphorylation sites and a higher coverage of plant species in comparison with other databases. The proportions of residue types including serine, threonine and tyrosine were 77.99, 17.81 and 4.20%, respectively. All the phosphoproteins and phosphorylation sites in the database were critically annotated. Since the phosphorylation signaling in plants attracted great attention recently, such a comprehensive resource of plant protein phosphorylation can be useful for the research community.

Project description:Environment pH (pHe) is a key parameter dictating a surfeit of conditions critical to plant survival and fitness. To elucidate the mechanisms that recalibrate cytoplasmic and apoplastic pH homeostasis, we conducted a comprehensive proteomic/phosphoproteomic inventory of plants subjected to transient exposure to acidic or alkaline pH, an approach that covered the majority of protein-coding genes of the reference plant Arabidopsis thaliana. Our survey revealed a large set-of so far undocumented pHe-dependent phospho-sites, indicative of extensive post-translational regulation of proteins involved in the acclimation to pHe. Changes in pHe altered both electrogenic H+ pumping via P-type ATPases and H+/anion co-transport processes, putatively leading to altered net trans-plasma membrane translocation of H+ ions. In pH 7.5 plants, the transport (but not the assimilation) of nitrogen via NRT2-type nitrate and AMT1-type ammonium transporters was induced, conceivably to increase the cytosolic H+ concentration. Exposure to both acidic and alkaline pH resulted in a marked repression of primary root elongation. No such cessation was observed in nrt2.1 mutants. Alkaline pH decreased the number of root hairs in the wild type but not in nrt2.1 plants, supporting a role of NRT2.1 in developmental signaling. Sequestration of iron into the vacuole via alterations in protein abundance of the vacuolar iron transporter VTL5 was inversely regulated in response to high and low pHe, presumptively in anticipation of associated changes in iron availability. A pH-dependent phospho-switch was also observed for the ABC transporter PDR7, suggesting changes in activity and, possibly, substrate specificity. Unexpectedly, the effect of pHe was not restricted to roots and provoked pronounced changes in the shoot proteome. In both roots and shoots, the plant-specific TPLATE complex components AtEH1 and AtEH2-essential for clathrin-mediated endocytosis-were differentially phosphorylated at multiple sites in response to pHe, indicating that the endocytic cargo protein trafficking is orchestrated by pHe.
