Transduction of extracellular signals in guard cells requires coupling of ion fluxes across the vacuolar and plasma membrane. Changes in cytoplasmic proton and Ca2+ concentrations are important messages during stomatal movement. Here we summarize the different biophysical properties of voltage- and ligand-dependent ion channels in both the vacuolar and plasma membranes of guard cells, focusing on how cytoplasmic Ca2+ and proton concentrations direct ion fluxes towards stomatal opening or closure. Particular attention is given to the patch clamp analysis of plasma membrane cation channels (GCKCin, GCKCout and Ca2+ channels), the anion channel (GCAC1) and the vacuolar SV-type channels. A working model is presented of how the ion channels of both membrane systems could communicate to synchronize potassium salt release during stomatal closure.

D010944 Plants Multicellular, eukaryotic life forms of kingdom Plantae. Plants acquired chloroplasts by direct endosymbiosis of CYANOBACTERIA. They are characterized by a mainly photosynthetic mode of nutrition; essentially unlimited growth at localized regions of cell divisions (MERISTEMS); cellulose within cells providing rigidity; the absence of organs of locomotion; absence of nervous and sensory systems; and an alternation of haploid and diploid generations. It is a non-taxonomical term most often referring to LAND PLANTS. In broad sense it includes RHODOPHYTA and GLAUCOPHYTA along with VIRIDIPLANTAE. Plant
D011188 Potassium An element in the alkali group of metals with an atomic symbol K, atomic number 19, and atomic weight 39.10. It is the chief cation in the intracellular fluid of muscle and other cells. Potassium ion is a strong electrolyte that plays a significant role in the regulation of fluid volume and maintenance of the WATER-ELECTROLYTE BALANCE.
D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.
