Arabidopsis DORN1 extracellular ATP receptor; activation of plasma membrane K+-and Ca2+-permeable conductances

Wang, Limin; Wikins, Katie; Davies, Julia Mary

The first reports in the 1970s of extracellular ATP (eATP) effects on algal cytoplasmic streaming and Venus fly trap closure received little attention (Jaffe, 1973; Williamson, 1975). By the time interest in plant eATP ...
