We showed recently that the germinal center kinase III (GCKIII) SmKIN3 from the fungus Sordaria macrospora is involved in sexual development and hyphal septation. Our recent extensive global proteome and phosphoproteome analysis revealed that SmKIN3 is a target of the striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase (STRIPAK) multisubunit complex. Here, using protein samples from the wild type and three STRIPAK mutants, we applied absolute quantification by parallel-reaction monitoring (PRM) to analyze phosphorylation site occupancy in SmKIN3 and other septation initiation network (SIN) components, such as CDC7 and DBF2, as well as BUD4, acting downstream of SIN. For SmKIN3, we show that phosphorylation of S668 and S686 is decreased in mutants lacking distinct subunits of STRIPAK, while a third phosphorylation site, S589, was not affected. We constructed SmKIN3 mutants carrying phospho-mimetic and phospho-deficient codons for phosphorylation sites S589, S668, and S686. Investigation of hyphae in a ΔSmkin3 strain complemented by the S668 and S686 mutants showed a hyper-septation phenotype, which was absent in the wild type, the ΔSmkin3 strain complemented with the wild-type gene, and the S589 mutant. Furthermore, localization studies with SmKIN3 phosphorylation variants and STRIPAK mutants showed that SmKIN3 preferentially localizes at the terminal septa, which is distinctly different from the localization of the wild-type strains. We conclude that STRIPAK-dependent phosphorylation of SmKIN3 has an impact on controlled septum formation and on the time-dependent localization of SmKIN3 on septa at the hyphal tip. Thus, STRIPAK seems to regulate SmKIN3, as well as DBF2 and BUD4 phosphorylation, affecting septum formation.IMPORTANCE Phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of proteins are fundamental posttranslational modifications that determine the fine-tuning of their biological activity. Involved in this modification process is the recently identified striatin-interacting phosphatase and kinase (STRIPAK) multisubunit complex, which is evolutionarily conserved from fungi to humans. STRIPAK functions as a macromolecular assembly communicating through physical interactions with other conserved signaling protein complexes to constitute larger dynamic protein networks. Its function is implied in many cellular processes, such as signal transduction pathways, growth, and cellular differentiation. We applied absolute quantification of protein phosphorylation by parallel-reaction monitoring (PRM) to analyze phosphorylation site occupancy in signaling components that are linked to the STRIPAK complex. Using the filamentous fungus Sordaria macrospora, we provide evidence for the phosphorylation-dependent role of the Hippo-like germinal center kinase SmKIN3, which controls septum formation, and localize it in a time-dependent manner on septa at the hyphal tip.
