Abstract excerpt
Recently we discovered a tobacco protein (designated NtCBP4) that modulates heavy-metal tolerance in transgenic plants. Structurally, NtCBP4 is similar to mammalian cyclic-nucleotide-gated non-selective cation channels containing six putative transmembrane domains, a predicted pore region, a conserved cyclic-nucleotide-binding domain, and a high-affinity calmodulin-binding site that coincides with its...
