Cyclin-dependent kinase A (CDKA) is a key component for cell cycle progression. The catalytic kinase activity depends on the protein's ability to form an active complex with cyclins and on phosphoregulatory mechanisms. Cell cycle arrest and plant growth impairment under abiotic stress have been linked to different molecular processes triggered by increased levels of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS). Among these, posttranslational modifications (PTMs) of key proteins such as CDKA;1 may be of significance. Herein, isolated maize embryo axes were subjected to sodium nitroprusside (SNP) as an inductor of nitrosative conditions to evaluate if CDKA;1 protein was a target for RNS. A high degree of protein nitration was detected; this included the specific Tyr-nitration of CDKA;1. Tyr15 and Tyr19, located at the ATP-binding site, were the selective targets for nitration according to both in silico analysis using the predictive software GPS-YNO2 , and in vitro mass spectrometry studies of recombinant nitrated ZmCDKA;1. Spectrofluorometric measurements demonstrated a reduction of ZmCDKA;1-NO2 affinity for ATP. From these results, we conclude that Tyr nitration in CDKA;1 could act as an active modulator of cell cycle progression during redox stress.
