The role of reversible phosphorylation of the host plasma membrane H+-ATPase in signal transduction during the incompatible interaction between tomato cells and the fungal pathogen Cladosporium fulvum was investigated. Tomato cells (with the Cf-5 resistance gene) or isolated plasma membranes from Cf-5 cells treated with elicitor preparations from race 2.3 or 4 of C. fulvum (containing the avr5 gene product) showed a marked dephosphorylation of plasma membrane H+-ATPase. Similar treatment with elicitor preparations from races 5 and 2.4.5.9.11 (lacking the avr5 gene product) showed no change in dephosphorylation. Elicitor (race 4) treatment of cells, but not of isolated plasma membranes, for 2 hr resulted in rephosphorylation of the ATPase via Ca2+-dependent protein kinases. The initial (first hour) rephosphorylation was enhanced by protein kinase C (PKC) activators and was prevented by PKC inhibitors. Activity of a second kinase appeared after 1 hr and was responsible for the continuing phosphorylation of the H+-ATPase. This latter Ca2+-dependent kinase was inhibited by a calmodulin (CaM) antagonist and by an inhibitor of Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase II. The activation of the Ca2+/CaM-dependent protein kinase depended on the prior activation of the PKC-like kinase. |
