Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb002180
• Gene Symbol: ZmCPK1|ZmCPK7|ZmCDPK3|cdpk36
• Gene Name: calcium dependent protein kinase36
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• ZmCPK1|ZmCPK7|ZmCDPK3|cdpk36, a calcium-independent kinase member of the Zea mays CDPK gene family, functions as a negative regulator in cold stress signalling.
• Biochemical analysis demonstrated that ZmCPK1|ZmCPK7|ZmCDPK3|cdpk36 displays calcium-independent protein kinase activity.
• In accordance, heterologous overexpression of ZmCPK1|ZmCPK7|ZmCDPK3|cdpk36 in Arabidopsis thaliana yielded plants with altered acclimation-induced frost tolerance. Our results identify ZmCPK1|ZmCPK7|ZmCDPK3|cdpk36 as a negative regulator of cold stress signalling in maize.
