Article Synopsis
  • * By introducing a lysine-null SUMO1 into specific mutant plants and developing a new enrichment method, researchers identified over 2,200 SUMOylation sites across 1,300 proteins involved in important nuclear processes.
  • * The findings reveal that SUMOylation enhances the stability of target proteins and differ from typical motifs found in other eukaryotes, providing a valuable resource for future studies on how SUMOylation affects protein function in plants. *

The mechanisms of plant drought resistance are unclear but may involve membrane trafficking and metabolic reprogramming, including proline accumulation. Forward genetic screening using a () identified a drought hypersensitive mutant with a single-amino acid substitution (P335L) in the nonphototrophic hypocotyl 3 (NPH3) domain of NPH3/root phototropism 2-like 5 (NRL5)/naked pins in Yucca 8 (NPY8). Further experiments found that NRL5 and other NPH3 domain proteins are guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases).
