Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb022180
• Gene Symbol: ZmCDPK6 ZmCPK2 cdpk37
• Gene Name: calcium dependent protein kinase37
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• The roles of ZmCDPKs as a convergence point of different signaling pathways in regulating maize response to abiotic stress, which will promote an understanding of the molecular mechanisms of ZmCDPKs in maize tolerance to abiotic stress and open new opportunities for agricultural applications.
• Calcium-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are a kind of calcium sensor with a calcium binding domain and a kinase domain.
• Zmcdpk37 encoded a Calcium-dependent protein kinase7.
• Ca2+-independent ZmCPK2 is inhibited by Ca2+-dependent ZmCPK17 during drought response in maize.
• ZmCPK2 interacts with and phosphorylates and activates ZmYAB15, a negative transcriptional factor for drought resistance.
• ZmCPK2 interacts with and is inhibited by calcium-dependent ZmCPK17, a positive regulator of drought resistance, which is activated by ABA.
