Abstract excerpt
Calmodulin (CaM), a ubiquitous multifunctional calcium sensor in all eukaryotes, mediates calcium action by regulating the activity/function of many unrelated proteins. Although calcium and CaM are known to play a crucial role in pollen germination and pollen tube growth, the proteins that mediate their action have not been identified. We isolated three closely related CaM-binding proteins (NPG1, NPGR1, and...
