High impact information on ATTPC1

  • Here, we describe the different families of (putative) cation channels: the Shakers, the two-P-domain and Kir K(+) channels (encoded by the KCO genes), the cyclic-nucleotide-gated channels, the glutamate receptors, and the Ca(2+) channel TPC1 [1].
  • Calcium channel blockers and calmodulin inhibitors added solely during the recovery phase suggest that this role for calcium is in protecting against oxidative damage specifically during/after recovery [2].
  • Thus, involvement of TPC1 channels in calcium signaling leading to development of plant defense mechanism has been suggested [3].
  • Action of aluminum, novel TPC1-type channel inhibitor, against salicylate-induced and cold-shock-induced calcium influx in tobacco BY-2 cells [3].
  • Notably, responsiveness to H(2)O(2) was lost in the cosuppression cell line, thus TPC1 channels are required for ROS-responsive Ca(2+) influx [4].
 

Biological context of ATTPC1

 

Associations of ATTPC1 with chemical compounds

  • Sucrose-induced luminescence, which reflects a cytosolic free Ca(2+) increase in aequorin-expressing Arabidopsis leaves, was enhanced by overexpression of AtTPC1 and suppressed by antisense expression of it [6].
  • We show that a tpc1 knockout mutant lacks functional slow vacuolar channel activity and is defective in both abscisic acid-induced repression of germination and in the response of stomata to extracellular calcium [7].
  • Quantitative oxylipin analysis identified less than twofold increased jasmonate levels in healthy fou2 leaves compared to wild-type; however, wounded fou2 leaves strongly increased jasmonate biogenesis compared to wounded wild-type [8].
