* Using pharmacological and biochemical approaches, the role of calmodulin (CaM) and the relationship between CaM and hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) in abscisic acid (ABA)-induced antioxidant defense in leaves of maize (Zea mays) plants were investigated. * Treatment with ABA or H(2)O(2) led to

Using pharmacological and biochemical approaches, the signaling pathways between hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)), calcium (Ca(2+))-calmodulin (CaM), and nitric oxide (NO) in abscisic acid (ABA)-induced antioxidant defense were investigated in leaves of maize (Zea mays L.) plants. Treatments with ABA,

The calmodulin-binding transcription activators (CAMTA) play critical roles in plant growth and responses to environmental stimuli. However, how CAMTAs function in responses to abiotic and biotic stresses in maize (Zea mays L.) is largely unknown. In this study, we first identified all the CAMTA

The maize genomic sequence and cDNA encoding a calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase homolog were isolated and identified. The deduced peptide (MCK2) from this cDNA shared high amino acid identity (91.2%) with maize MCK1. These two genes were physically mapped onto chromosomes by fluorescence

The protein substrate specificity of the maize (Zea mays) leaf ADP: protein phosphotransferase (regulatory protein, RP) was studied in terms of its relative ability to inactivate/phosphorylate pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase from Zea mays and the non-sulphur purple photosynthetic bacterium

Calcium dependent protein phosphorylation was studied in corn (Zea mays L.) root tips. Prior to in vivo protein phosphorylation experiments, the effect of calcium, ethyleneglycol-bis-(beta-aminoethyl ether)-N-N' -tetraacetic acid (EGTA) and calcium ionophore (A-23187) on phosphorus uptake was

Coleoptile segments of oat (Avena sativa var Cayuse) and corn (Zea mays L. var Patriot) were incubated in different concentrations of calmodulin antagonists in the presence and absence of alpha-naphthaleneacetic acid. The calmodulin antgonists (chlorpromazine (CP), trifluoperazine, and fluphenazine)

Recent evidence indicates a role for calcium and calmodulin in the gravitropic response of primary roots of maize (Zea mays, L.). We examined this possibility by testing the relationship between calmodulin activity and gravitropic sensitivity in roots of the maize cultivars Merit and B73 x Missouri

We used five cultivars of Zea mays (Bear Hybrid WF9 * 38MS, B73 * Missouri 17, Yellow Dent, Merit, and Great Lakes Hybrid 422) to reinvestigate the specificity of metal ions for inducing root curvature. Of 17 cations tested, 6 (Al3+, Ba2+, Ca2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, Zn2+) induced curvature. Roots curved away

The role of calmodulin on Al toxicity was studied in two maize (Zea mays L.) inbred lines, Cat 100-6 (Al-tolerant) and S 1587-17 (Al-sensitive). Increasing levels of Al induced the release of malate at similar rate by roots of both genotypes, while the exudation of citrate, a stronger Al-binding

Changes in membrane Ca2+, calcium receptor protein calmodulin, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), mitochondria and cellulose in unfixed, living, isolated egg cells and fusion products of pairs of one egg and one sperm cell of Zea mays L. have been investigated using chlorotetracycline, fluphenazine,

The effects of calmodulin (CaM) on ATPase activity and ATP-dependent formation of a proton gradient (DeltapH) were studied in tonoplast membrane vesicles from corn (Zea mays L.) roots. At 0.6 micromolar, CaM stimulated ATPase activity by about 20% in the absence of an uncoupler, but by only 4% in

The role of a calcium-dependent and calmodulin (CaM)-stimulated protein kinase in abscisic acid (ABA)-induced antioxidant defense was determined in leaves of maize (Zea mays). In-gel kinase assays showed that treatments with ABA or H(2)O(2) induced the activation of a 49-kDa protein kinase and a

In mammals, pyrethroids are neurotoxicants that interfere with ion channel function in excitable neuronal membranes. Previous work demonstrated increases in the expression of Ca(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase 1-gamma (Camk1g) mRNA following acute deltamethrin and permethrin exposure. In the
