The Ca2+ status of the endoplasmic reticulum is altered by induction of calreticulin expression in transgenic plants

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY, 126(3), 1092–1104.

MeSH headings : Arabidopsis / genetics; Arabidopsis / metabolism; Calcium / metabolism; Calcium-Binding Proteins / biosynthesis; Calreticulin; Cell Line; Endoplasmic Reticulum / metabolism; Heat-Shock Response; Phenotype; Plant Proteins / metabolism; Plants, Genetically Modified; Plants, Toxic; Ribonucleoproteins / biosynthesis; Tobacco / genetics; Tobacco / metabolism; Zea mays / genetics; Zea mays / metabolism
TL;DR: The level of CRT in heat shock-induced CRT transgenic plants correlated positively with the retention of chlorophyll when the plants were transferred from Ca( 2+)-containing medium to Ca(2+)-depleted medium, consistent with the hypothesis that increasingCRT in the ER increases the ERCa(2+) stores and thereby enhances the survival of plants grown in low Ca(1+) medium.

Changes in phosphoinositide metabolism with days in culture affect signal transduction pathways in Galdieria sulphuraria

PLANT PHYSIOLOGY, 119(4), 1331–1339.

By: I. Heilmann  n, I. Perera n , W. Gross * & W. Boss n

TL;DR: The increase in PIP kinase activity before IP3 signaling in d-12 cells indicates that there is an additional pathway for regulation of phosphoinositide metabolism after stimulation other than an initial activation of phospholipase C. (via Semantic Scholar)
