Abstract excerpt
Blue light receptor phototropin is a protein kinase that initiates various blue light signaling pathways, including the phosphorylation and activation of plasma membrane (PM) H+-ATPase for stomatal opening. Activation of PM H+-ATPase drives K+ uptake via K+in channels. This influx of K⁺ is electrically balanced by intracellular anions such as Cl⁻ and malate2-, increasing cellular osmotic potential and driving...
