Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are at the heart of eukaryotic cell-cycle control. The yeast
Cdc2/CDC28 PSTAIRE kinase and its orthologs such as the mammalian Cdk1 have been …

Higher plants are sessile organisms that perceive environmental cues such as light and
chemical signals and respond by changing their morphologies. Signaling pathways utilize a …

Plants display a number of responses to low phosphate availability, involving biochemical
and developmental changes. Recently we have shown that many of these responses can be …

The recent discovery of Epac, a novel cAMP receptor protein, opens up a new dimension in
studying cAMP-mediated cell signaling. It is conceivable that many of the cAMP functions …

The circadian system optimizes cellular responses to stress, but the signaling pathways that
convey the metabolic consequences of stress into this molecular timekeeping mechanism …

The plant hormone jasmonate (JA) regulates plant immunity and adaptive growth by
orchestrating a genome-wide transcriptional program. Key regulators of JA-responsive gene …

Abstract Calmodulin N-methyltransferase (CaM KMT) is an evolutionarily conserved enzyme
in eukaryotes that transfers three methyl groups to a highly conserved lysyl residue at …

Two-component systems are an evolutionarily ancient means for signal transduction. These
systems are comprised of a number of distinct elements, namely histidine kinases, response …

Plant morphogenesis relies on cell proliferation and differentiation strictly controlled in space
and time. As in other eukaryotes, progression through the plant cell cycle is governed by …

Over the last 20 years, the concept of signalling is being continually modified, especially the
molecular crosstalk associated with it. It has taken a shape of a new field due to the …
