Proteins and their phosphorylation were examined in rice phloem sap that had been collected by the insect laser technique. Analysis by SDS-PAGE indicated that rice phloem sap contained over 150 proteins. The total protein concentration was 150-200 ng μl^<-1>. Analysis of proteins extracted from leaves, roots and seeds revealed that several major low-molecular-weight proteins were confined to the rice phloem sap. Maintenance of rice plants under stable environmental conditions was associated with a constant complement of proteins in the phloem sap. Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of proteins were detected in the sieve tubes and occurred in a light dependent manner when [γ-^<32>P]ATP was supplied to leaf blades. In darkness, 17-kDa and 24-kDa proteins were phosphorylated. When plants were transferred to the light, 17-kDa and 21-kDa proteins were phosphorylated. Proteins in the rice phloem sap were also phosphorylated in vitro. The phosphorylation was Ca^<2+>_dependent and was inhibited by a protein kinase inhibitor. These results indicate that a signal-transport system that involves phosphorylation of proteins may exist in rice sieve tubes.
