The Transduction of Light Signals in Plants: Responses to Blue Light

1991
Although the majority of articles in this volume are devoted to studies of phytochrome, there has been considerable progress recently in understanding plant responses to blue light — mediated not by the blue light-absorbing bands of phytochrome, but rather by specific blue light photoreceptors. These inroads are being made at the cellular, biochemical,

The transduction of light signals by phytochrome

1997
Extraordinary progress has recently been made towards the understanding of how the plant photoreceptor phytochrome is able to transduce light signals into biological responses. This has been achieved by a combination of complementary genetic, biochemical, and cell biological approaches. We can now assign individual phytochromes to particular responses,

SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION IN BLUE LIGHT-MEDIATED RESPONSES

2006
The study of blue light (B)-mediated responses has a long history (Darwin, 1881; Sachs, 1887), yet molecular identification of the photoreceptors mediating these responses has only occurred in the last decade. Although identification of cryptochrome (cry)-, phototropin (phot)-, and other B-receptor-mediated signal transduction components have lagged ...

Light-Induced Signal Transduction Pathway Involving Inositol Phosphates

1996
Signals such as light, hormones, and gravity control diverse physiological and developmental processes throughout the life cycle of plants. How a plant senses these signals and then responds in an appropriate manner has been a subject of great interest.

Metabolic transduction and amplification of light signals

1988
Any photomorphogenic response is made up of the processes of signal perception, signal transduction and amplification, and expression of morphogenic change. Transduction involves transformation of the environmental signal into a molecular or metabolic message, and may consist of a catenary sequence of events - a transduction chain during which there is

Components of Light-Induced Signal Transduction in Cyanobacteria

2007
Sensing the quality of light with respect to intensity, spectral composition, duration, and direction and polarization is of outstanding importance for photosynthetic organisms, being them immobilized as the plants or motile as many bacteria or unicellular algae ([Smith 2000]).
