description | Abstract Plasma membrane H+-ATPase provides the driving force for light-induced stomatal opening. However, the mechanisms underlying the regulation of its activity remain unclear. Here, we show that the phosphorylation of two Thr residues in the C-terminal autoinhibitory domain is crucial for H+-ATPase activation and stomatal opening in Arabidopsis thaliana. Using phosphoproteome analysis, we show that blue light induces the phosphorylation of Thr-881 within the C-terminal region I, in addition to penultimate Thr-948 in AUTOINHIBITED H+-ATPASE 1 (AHA1). Based on site-directed mutagenesis experiments, phosphorylation of both Thr residues is essential for H+ pumping and stomatal opening in response to blue light. Thr-948 phosphorylation is a prerequisite for Thr-881 phosphorylation by blue light. Additionally, red light-driven guard cell photosynthesis induces Thr-881 phosphorylation, possibly contributing to red light-dependent stomatal opening. Our findings provide mechanistic insights into H+-ATPase activation that exploits the ion transport across the plasma membrane and light signalling network in guard cells. |
