To explore the molecular basis of Tamarix hispida's response to salt stress, we performed an integrative analysis combining physiological measurements with proteomic and phosphoproteomic approaches. Under 200 mM NaCl treatment, physiological assays revealed that membrane damage and oxidative stress peaked at 3 h, identifying this time point as critical for capturing early stress-responsive events. Using 4D label-free quantitative proteomics, we quantified 5382 proteins, of which 509 were differentially expressed. Notably, functional enrichment analysis indicated that many suppressed proteins participated in pathways connected to photosynthesis and carbon fixation, suggesting that salt stress disrupts essential metabolic processes. Concurrently, phosphoproteomic profiling revealed 5425 phosphosites mapped to 1960 distinct proteins, including 132 differentially phosphorylated proteins (DEPPs). Functional enrichment analysis indicated that these DEPPs are primarily involved in protein phosphorylation, RNA splicing, and cell cycle regulation. Key components of the phosphatidylinositol (PI) signaling pathway-such as phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate 5-kinase (PIP5K) and diacylglycerol kinase (DGK)-exhibited increased phosphorylation levels, implying activation of downstream messengers including inositol trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG), which may serve to amplify salt stress signaling. Additionally, enhanced phosphorylation of nuclear transport proteins, including importins and nucleoporins, suggests that nucleocytoplasmic trafficking is dynamically regulated in response to salt stress. Several transcription factors (TFs) also exhibited significant phosphorylation changes, implying their involvement in stress-responsive regulatory networks. Functional validation of five randomly selected TFs demonstrated that site-directed mutagenesis of their phosphorylation residues significantly altered salt tolerance, highlighting the pivotal role of phosphorylation in modulating transcriptional responses to salt stress. Collectively, these findings uncover a critical regulatory mechanism in T. hispida's adaptation to salinity, linking early signal transduction with transcriptional and metabolic reprogramming."],"pubmed_title":["Phosphoproteomic profiling reveals PI pathway and transcription factor regulation in Tamarix hispida under salt stress."],"pubmed_authors":["Sun Shilin S, Zhao JunYin J, Niu Siyuan S, Jin Ruoxuan R, Han Xue X, Wu Di D, Wang Yucheng Y"],"additional_accession":[]},"is_claimable":false,"name":"Phosphoproteomic Profiling Reveals PI Pathway and Transcription Factor Regulation in Tamarix hispida under Salt Stress","description":"Here, we identify the salt-sensitive proteins in vivo under 200 mM NaCl treatment in Taramix hispida by 4D label free-based phosphoproteomic analysis. Through a normalization by proteomics analysis to phosphorylation omics, 5,425 phosphorylated sites were identified in 1,960 comparable proteins. Meanwhile, 132 proteins were screened as differential expression phosphorylated proteins (DEPPs) including 94 upregulated phosphoproteins containing 159 phosphorylated sites and 38 downregulated phosphoproteins containing 50 phosphorylated sites. The DEPPs were enriched in various pathways such as photosynthesis, nuclear localization signals, and signal transduction process. The upregulated phosphorylation of key enzymes in PI-PLC signal transduction process like PIP5K and DGK enhanced salt stress tolerance of T.hispida. What’s more, we also identified 52 transcription factors that might respond salt stress conditions through phosphorylation. Five of them were positively regulated salt stress tolerance of T.hispida by phosphorylation or dephosphorylation. More important, we also suggest a scheme depicting the molecular events that NaCl stress activates the PI signaling pathway in T.hispida. These findings provide a landscape of salt-sensitive proteins of Taramix in response to salt stress, which provide even more significant sheds new light for facilitate research on the breeding of salt-tolerant plant varieties.","dates":{"publication":"Fri Jun 06 00:00:00 BST 2025"},"accession":"PXD064704","cross_references":{"TAXONOMY":["189793"],"pubmed":["41422564"]}}
