Other claims from this paper (9)
- Mechanism 14-3-3 proteins lambda and kappa interact with SOS2 and repress its kinase activity in Arabidopsis.
- Intervention effect Growth in the presence of salt decreased the interaction between SOS2 and the 14-3-3 proteins.
- Intervention effect Growth in the presence of salt led to SOS2 kinase activation in planta.
- Mechanism The SOS2 junction domain, which 14-3-3 lambda binds, is important for SOS2 kinase activity.
- Observation Ser-294 is identified as a phosphorylation site within the SOS2 junction domain by mass spectrometry.
- Intervention effect Mutation of Ser-294 to Ala or Asp does not affect SOS2 kinase activity in the absence of 14-3-3 proteins.
- Intervention effect The Ser-to-Ala mutation decreased the 14-3-3-mediated inhibition of SOS2 activity.
- Intervention effect The Ser-to-Asp exchange enhanced the 14-3-3-mediated inhibition of SOS2 activity.
- Mechanism 14-3-3 lambda and kappa are important regulators of salt tolerance in Arabidopsis.
