Given below some functions of the glutamate receptor-like (GLR) genes. Which one is incorrect?

#Unit 6. System Physiology – Plant
  1. It produces electrical signals and changes the membrane potential
  2. Change in membrane potental is carried to the distantly location on the plant
  3. GLR repairs plant prior to the herbivory by activating the defence mechanism such as JA
  4. GLR genes must be safely stored in leak-proof cellular compartments, and they must also be relatively isolated from susceptible tissues in the event of leakage due to cellular damage.

Two-component system regulating response to low Gln,

a) Glutamine dissociates from the sensor domain in the NtrB protein, leading to activation of a histidine kinase transmitter domain in NtrB

b) glutamine binds to a sensor domain of NtrB, causing a conformational change in the protein that inhibits its histidine kinase activity, the regulatory domain of NtrC blocks its DNA-binding domain from binding the glnA enhancers.

c) Activated transmitter domain of NtrB that transfers the γ-phosphate of ATP to a histidine residue (H), this phosphohistidine then transfers the phosphate to an aspartic acid residue (D) in the NtrC protein

d) This causes a conformational change in NtrC that unmasks the NtrC DNA-binding domain so that it can bind to the glnA enhancers
