CBL-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 23

UniProtKB accession:  Q93VD3

Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  CIPK serine-threonine protein kinases interact with CBL proteins. Binding of a CBL protein to the regulatory NAF domain of CIPK protein leads to activation of the kinase in a calcium-dependent manner. Downstream of CBL1, CBL2, CBL3 and CBL9, regulates by phosphorylation the K(+) conductance and uptake of AKT1 in low K(+) condition, in response to calcium signaling and during the stomatal opening regulation by monitoring the turgor pressure in guard cells. In response to low nitrate concentration, phosphorylates NRT1.1, switching it from a low-affinity nitrate transporter to a high-affinity transporter. Confers tolerance to low potassium conditions. Involved in drought sensitivity and leaf transpiration.
