Calcium and reactive oxygen species rule the waves of signaling

Leonie Steinhorst et al. Plant Physiol. 2013 Oct.

Abstract

Calcium signaling and reactive oxygen species signaling are directly connected, and both contribute to cell-to-cell signal propagation in plants.

Schematic model of Ca2+-mediated signal transduction processes in a plant cell. Examples of signal transduction processes mediated by CDPKs and CBL/CIPK complexes from Arabidopsis together with their respective target proteins are shown. For further details, see text. ER, Endoplasmic reticulum; P, target phosphorylation.
