报告内容简介：
Human population is expected to reach 9
billion by 2050, and global crop productivity needs to increase by 70%.
Unfortunately, pathogen infection and other stresses have posed grand
challenges to crop yield and food security. Stomatal pores are major entry
points of bacteria pathogens. How stomatal guard cells respond to pathogen
invasion and other factors (e.g., rising CO2 levels) is an important and
interesting question. Mitogen activated protein kinase 4 (MPK4) regulates
various signaling events in plant defense, growth, light response and
cytokinesis. We discovered that MPK4 is highly abundant in guard cells. Here I
report an experimental system that combines genetic engineering of kinase
activity and proteomics to study the signaling networks of MPK4. MPK4
activation affects multiple pathways (e.g., metabolism, redox regulation,
jasmonic acid biosynthesis and stress responses). Furthermore, MPK4 activation
also increased protein phosphorylation in the phosphoproteome, from which
putative MPK4 substrates were identified. A transcription factor and a
regulatory protein were indeed phosphorylated by MPK4. We demonstrated the utility
of phosphoproteomics in elucidating kinase dynamics and identification of
kinase substrates. As CO2levels affect stomatal immunity and stomatal movement,
we studied CO2signaling using hyphenated metabolomics technologies. A new
signaling pathway involving jasmonic acid was discovered. Future directions in
signal crosstalk and data integration will be discussed.
