Efficient integration of various external and internal signals is required to maintain adaptive
cellular function. Numerous distinct signal transduction systems have evolved to allow cells …

The possible role of cyclic AMP (cAMP) in plants has been an area of controversy for nearly
20 years: although cAMP and putative components of its synthesis, degradation and site of …

Recent work reveals a role for cyclic nucleotides as secondary signalling molecules in a
variety of signal transduction pathways in plants. Evidence is accumulating that cGMP is …

Adenylate cyclases (ACs) are enzymes capable of converting adenosine-5′-triphosphate
to cyclic 3′, 5′-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). In animals and lower eukaryotes, ACs …

Abstract In plants, 3´, 5´-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is an important second
messenger with varied functions; however, only a few adenylyl cyclases (ACs) that …

The second messenger 3′, 5′-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is increasingly
recognized as having many different roles in plant responses to environmental stimuli. To …

Abstract Cyclic nucleotides 3′, 5′-cAMP and 3′, 5′-cGMP are now established
signaling components of the plant cell while their 2′, 3′ positional isomers are …

The cyclic nucleotides monophosphates (cNMP) and in particular adenosine 3', 5'-cyclic
monophosphate (cAMP) and guanosine 3', 5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) are cyclic …

Background Cyclic nucleotides have been shown to play important signaling roles in many
physiological processes in plants including photosynthesis and defence. Despite this, little is …

Adenosine 3': 5'-monophosphate, commonly known as cAMP, is a key second messenger in
living organisms ranging from Dictyostelium to Homo sapiens. cAMP was first described as a …
