Ammonium triggered the response mechanism of lysine crotonylome in tea plants.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Lysine crotonylation, as a novel evolutionarily conserved type of post-translational modifications, is ubiquitous and essential in cell biology. However, its functions in tea plants are largely unknown, and the full functions of lysine crotonylated proteins of tea plants in nitrogen absorption and assimilation remains unclear. Our study attempts to describe the global profiling of nonhistone lysine crotonylation in tea leaves and to explore how ammonium (NH₄⁺) triggers the response mechanism of lysine crotonylome in tea plants.

Results

Here, we performed the global analysis of crotonylome in tea leaves under NH₄⁺ deficiency/resupply using high-resolution LC-MS/MS coupled with highly sensitive immune-antibody. A total of
