ABSTRACT
The casein kinase II (CK2) complex consists of catalytic (α) and regulatory (ß) subunits and is highly conserved throughout eukaryotes. Plant CK2 plays critical roles in multiple physiological processes; however, its function in plant immunity remains obscure. In this study, we demonstrated that the unique chloroplast-localized CK2 α subunit (CPCK2) is a negative regulator of Arabidopsis thaliana innate immunity. cpck2 mutants displayed enhanced resistance against the fungal pathogen powdery mildew, Golovinomyces cichoracearum and the virulent bacterial pathogen, Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pto) DC3000. Moreover, the cpck2-1 mutant accumulated higher salicylic acid (SA) levels and mutations that disabled SA biosynthesis or signaling inhibited cpck2-1-mediated disease resistance. CPCK2 interacted with the chloroplast-localized carbonic anhydrase (CA), SA-binding protein 3 (SABP3), which was required for cpck2-mediated immunity. Significantly, CPCK2 phosphorylated SABP3, which promoted S-nitrosylation of this enzyme. It has previously been established that S-nitrosylation of SABP3 reduces both its SA binding function and its CA activity, which compromises the immune-related function of SABP3. Taken together, our results establish CPCK2 as a negative regulator of SA accumulation and associated immunity. Importantly, our findings unveil a mechanism by which CPCK2 negatively regulates plant immunity by promoting S-nitrosylation of SABP3 through phosphorylation, which provides the first example in plants of S-nitrosylation being promoted by cognate phosphorylation.
