Description

The ankyrin-repeat transmembrane protein ACD6 was identified two decades ago, but its exact biochemical function has remained enigmatic. Chen et al. show that ACD6 is a bona fide regulator of calcium influx using heterologous systems and calcium reporters in plants, and that this activity can be further enhanced by a MHA1L peptide ligand.
