An important effector of Ca2+ signaling in animals and yeast is the Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent protein phosphatase calcineurin. However, the biochemical identity of plant calcineurin remained elusive. Here we report the molecular characterization of AtCBL (Arabidopsis thaliana calcineurin B-like protein) from Arabidopsis. The protein is most similar to mammalian calcineurin B, the ... More
