Summary
Histidine kinases (AHKs) play an important role in the integration of multiple endogenous and environmental signals in Arabidopsis. In project B05 we would like to analyze the atomic structure of the histidine kinase 5 (AHK5) and the function of AHK5 in the perception and signaling of H2O2 in the context of environmentally modified root growth and development. In addition we would like to study, how H2O2-dependent signals are integrated by AHK5-dependent processes with other signaling cascades and how this can result in specific cellular and physiological outputs.
