Cytokinin signal perception and transduction.
In the past few years, enormous progress has been made in understanding cytokinin perception and signalling. Three cytokinin receptor proteins, which are hybrid histidine kinases, have been identified in Arabidopsis. These receptors may transduce signals in a quantitative rheostat-like fashion, thus permitting long-lasting and continuously variable signalling that is directly dependent on the h...
متن کاملLight signal transduction in higher plants.
Plants utilize several families of photoreceptors to fine-tune growth and development over a large range of environmental conditions. The UV-A/blue light sensing phototropins mediate several light responses enabling optimization of photosynthetic yields. The initial event occurring upon photon capture is a conformational change of the photoreceptor that activates its protein kinase activity. Th...
متن کاملThe ethylene signal transduction pathway in plants.
Ethylene (C2H4), the chemically simplest plant hormone, is among the best-characterized plant growth regulators. It participates in a variety of stress responses and developmental processes. Genetic studies in Arabidopsis have defined a number of genes in the ethylene signal transduction pathway. Isolation of two of these genes has revealed that plants sense this gas through a combination of pr...
متن کاملSignal Transduction: Rho-like Proteins in Plants
Plants lack the Rho and Rac/Cdc42 GTPases that are so important in diverse signal transduction processes in animals. A plant-specific group of Rho-like proteins - Rops - shows striking similarities to their animal relatives, but also exciting differences in their regulation and signal transduction.
متن کاملPerception and signal transduction of cytokinins.
Cytokinins are plant hormones implicated in diverse and essential processes in plant growth and development, and key genes for the metabolism and actions of cytokinins have recently been identified. Cytokinins are perceived by three histidine kinases--CRE1/WOL/AHK4, AHK2, and AHK3--which initiate intracellular phosphotransfer. The final destination of the transferred phosphoryl groups is respon...
