    AnnotationActivation of mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases is a common reaction of plant cells in defense-related signal transduction pathways. To gain insight into the mechanisms that determine specificity in response to a particular stimulus, a biochemical approach has been employed. Photoautotrophic suspension culture cells of tomato (Lycopersicon peruvianum) were used as experimental system to characterize MAP kinase activation by different stress-related stimuli. An elicitor preparation of the tomato-specific pathogen Fusarium oxysporum lycopersici was shown to result in the simultaneous induction of four kinase activities that could be separated by ion-exchange chromatography. The simultaneous activation of multiple MAP kinases was further substantiated by distinct pharmacological and immunological properties: a differential sensitivity toward various protein kinase inhibitors and a differential cross-reaction with isoform-specific MAP kinase antibodies. In contrast to the two fungal elicitors chitosan and the F. oxysporum lycopersici preparation, the plant-derived stimuli polygalacturonic acid and salicylic acid were shown to activate distinctly different subsets of MAP kinases.
