✦ Synopsis
The regulatory NodD proteins of Rhizobium bacteria mediate the activation of a gene set responsible for symbiotic nodule formation by plant signal molecules. Here we discuss the signal recognition and gene activation properties of NodD and present a model summarizing the current knowledge on NodD action.

The plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) is necessary for the regulation of several aspects during seed development and for the response to environmental stresses such as desiccation, salt and cold. An important part of the physiological response to ABA is achieved through gene expression. Although dif
The calpacitin protein family is made up of small, abundantly expressed proteins that bind to the Ca 2؉free form of calmodulin (CaM) with an affinity equal to or greater than that of the Ca 2؉ -containing form. Their CaM-binding domains are homologous and contain an IQ motif. Two members of this fam
