Abstract excerpt
Nitrate-induced Ca2+ signaling is crucial for the primary nitrate response in plants. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the generation of the nitrate-specific calcium signature remains unknown. We report here that a cyclic nucleotide-gated channel (CNGC) protein, CNGC15, and the nitrate transceptor (NRT1.1) constitute a molecular switch that controls calcium influx depending on nitrate levels. The...
