Abstract excerpt
Recent genetic analysis showed that phototropins (phot1 and phot2) function as blue light receptors in stomatal opening of Arabidopsis thaliana, but no biochemical evidence was provided for this. We prepared a large quantity of guard cell protoplasts from Arabidopsis. The immunological method indicated that phot1 was present in guard cell protoplasts from the wild-type plant and the phot2 mutant, that phot2 was...
