Ammonium triggered the response mechanism of lysine crotonylome in tea plants.

The results indicated that the crotonylated proteins had a profound influence on metabolic process of tea leaves in response to NH4+ deficiency/resupply, which mainly involved in diverse aspects of primary metabolic processes by sensing NH4+, especially in photosynthesis, carbon fixation and amino acid metabolism. The data might serve as important resources for exploring the roles of lysine crotonylation in N metabolism of tea plants. Data were available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD011610.
