Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The cotton (Gossypium spp.) fiber cell is an important unicellular model for studying cell differentiation. There is evidence suggesting that phosphorylation is a critical post-translational modification involved in regulation of a wide range of cell activities. Nevertheless, the sites of phosphorylation in G. hirsutum and their regulatory roles in fiber cell initiation are largely unknown. In this...
