Abstract
Plants are an important part of nature because as photoautotrophs, they provide a nutrient source for many other living organisms. Due to their sessile nature, to overcome both biotic and abiotic stresses, plants have developed intricate mechanisms for perception of and reaction to these stresses, both on an external level (perception) and on an internal level (reaction). Specific proteins found within cells play crucial roles in stress mitigation by enhancing cellular processes that facilitate the plants survival during the unfavorable conditions. Well before plants are able to synthesize nascent proteins in response to stress, proteins which already exist in the cell can be subjected to an array of posttranslation modifications (PTMs) that permit a rapid response. These activated proteins can, in turn, aid in further stress responses. Different PTMs have different functions in growth and development of plants. Protein phosphorylation, a reversible form of modification has been well elucidated, and its role in signaling cascades is well documented. In this mini-review, we discuss the integration of protein phosphorylation with other components of abiotic stress–responsive pathways including phytohormones and ion homeostasis. Overall, this review demonstrates the high interconnectivity of the stress response system in plants and how readily plants are able to toggle between various signaling pathways in order to survive harsh conditions. Most notably, fluctuations of the cytosolic calcium levels seem to be a linking component of the various signaling pathways.
