Protein kinases are signal transduction factors that play a central role in acclimation. In this study, the function of a calcium sensor-interacting protein kinase, OsCIPK03, was characterised in the salt stress response of rice (Oryza sativa L.). Transgenic plants overexpressing OsCIPK03 exhibited an increased sensitivity to salt stress during both seed germination and seedling growth. By contrast, transgenic RNA interference lines that underexpressed OsCIPK03 were significantly more tolerant to NaCl stress than the wild-type. In response to salt stress, rice that underexpressed OsCIPK03 accumulated more proline than non-transformed plants. Furthermore, several stress-responsive genes were identified as being differentially expressed in the transgenic plants. Together, these results suggest that OsCIPK03 functions as a negative regulator of salt stress tolerance in rice.

Autophagy is a conserved cellular degradative process important for cellular homoeostasis and survival. An early committal step during the initiation of autophagy requires the actions of a protein kinase called ATG1 (autophagy gene 1). In mammalian cells, ATG1 is represented by ULK1 (uncoordinated-51-like kinase 1), which relies on its essential regulatory cofactors mATG13, FIP200 (focal adhesion kinase family-interacting protein 200 kDa) and ATG101. Much evidence indicates that mTORC1 [mechanistic (also known as mammalian) target of rapamycin complex 1] signals downstream to the ULK1 complex to negatively regulate autophagy. In this chapter, we discuss our understanding on how the mTORC1–ULK1 signalling axis drives the initial steps of autophagy induction. We conclude with a summary of our growing appreciation of the additional cellular pathways that interconnect with the core mTORC1–ULK1 signalling module.
