Nevertheless, the mechanism and the molecular entities of the flytrap action potential (AP) remain unknown. When entering the electrically excitable stage, the trap expressed a characteristic inventory of ion transporters, among which the increase in glutamate receptor GLR3.6 RNA was most pronounced. Trigger hair stimulation or glutamate application evoked an AP and a cytoplasmic Ca(2+) transient that both propagated at the same speed from the site of induction along the entire trap lobe surface. A priming Ca(2+) moiety entering the cytoplasm in the context of the AP was further potentiated by an organelle-localized calcium-induced calcium release (CICR)-like system prolonging the Ca(2+) signal. While the Ca(2+) transient persisted, SKOR K(+) channels and AHA H(+)-ATPases repolarized the AP already. By counting the number of APs and long-lasting Ca(2+) transients, the trap directs the different steps in the carnivorous plant's hunting cycle. VIDEO ABSTRACT.
