The phytohormone auxin modulates diverse aspects of plant growth and development. Protein phosphorylation is believed to play a key role in regulating auxin-mediated responses. To determine the phosphoproteins affected by auxin in Arabidopsis, we used phospho-specific antibodies to analyze their profiles on two-dimensional gels, then identified them by mass spectrometry. We found two phosphoproteins, enolase and the beta subunit of succinyl-CoA synthetase (SCS-beta), and noted that their phosphorylation was increased by auxin. To investigate their importance in auxin-mediated processes, we characterized Arabidopsis knockout mutants of the two genes. A homozygous null mutation in the gene for SCS-beta conferred embryo lethality. The enolase knockout mutants showed defects in root development similar to those of auxin-related mutants such as alf3 and xbat32. Therefore, we suggest that enolase is involved in auxin-regulated processes.
