Calcium: Not Just Another Ion

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Cell Biology of Metals and Nutrients

Part of the book series: Plant Cell Monographs ((CELLMONO,volume 17))

Abstract

Calcium (Ca2+) represents very likely the most versatile ion in living organisms. It is involved in nearly all aspects of plant development and participates in a plethora of regulatory processes. Calcium is an important signaling compound, regulates cellular metabolism and is important for endocytosis and exocytosis. Calcium can easily form complexes with proteins, membranes and other organic acids rendering this ion a versatile signaling constituent and simultaneously a toxic cellular compound. Consequently, the required tight spatial and temporal control of intracellular Ca2+ levels provided the basis for the emergence of calcium signaling. It is this apparent antagonism between the obvious cellular abundance of Ca2+ as a structural important ion in the plant and its required rareness in the cytoplasm as well as the evident question how this simple ion can specifically function in such a myriad of distinct process that has sparked considerable interest and research. Here we will discuss new insights into the signaling function of Ca2+ in the context of its diverse cell biological roles.
