Gene : AT5G61350 A. thaliana

DB identifier  ? AT5G61350 Secondary Identifier  ? locus:2163158
Brief Description  Protein kinase superfamily protein
TAIR Computational Description  Protein kinase superfamily protein;(source:Araport11)
TAIR Curator Summary  Encodes a membrane-localized receptor-like kinase that regulates root hair tip growth by maintaining cytoplasmic Ca2+ gradients. Knockouts of CAP1 produced more cytoplasmic NH4+ and ceased growth of root hairs on MS medium except when NH4+ was depleted; NH4+ depletion reestablished the Ca2+ gradient necessary for normal growth. The lower net NH4+ influx across the vacuolar membrane and relatively alkaline cytosolic pH of root hairs in cap1-1 relative to wild type implied that mutation of CAP1 results in more NH4+ accumulation in the cytoplasm. Furthermore, CAP1 functionally complemented npr1 kinase yeast mutant defective in high-affinity NH4+ uptake via MEP2, distinguishing CAP1 as a cytosolic modulator of NH4+ level that participates in NH4+ homeostasis-regulated root hair growth by modulating tip-focused cytoplasmic Ca2+ gradients.
