Calmodulin-like domain protein kinases (CDPKs) represent a new class of calciumdependent protein-phosphorylating enzymes that are not activated by calmodulin or phospholipid compounds. They have been found exclusively in plant and protozoal tissues. CDPKs are typified by four distinct domains: an N-
Plants cannot move away from their environments. As a result, all plants that have survived to date have evolved sophisticated signaling mechanisms that allow them to perceive, respond, and adapt to constantly changing environmental conditions. Among the many cellular processes that respond to envir
