phospholipase C (PLC), to hydrolyze the minor lipid,
phosphatidylinositol 4-
bisphosphateintotwosecondmessengers,inositol1,4,5-trisphosphate(InsP)and
3 2+ diacylglycerol(DAG). WhileInsP
diffusesintothecytosol,whereitreleasesCa 3 2+ from an intracellular
store by activating a ligand-gated Ca -channel, DAG
remainsinthemembranetorecruitandactivatemembersoftheproteinkinase
Cfamily.
Overtheyears,avarietyofotherlipidbased-signalingcascadesweredisc-
ered.
Theseinclude,phospholipaseA,generatinglyso-phospholipidsandfreefatty
acids(tobeconvertedintoprostaglandinsandleukotrienes),phospholipaseD,to
generatethelipidsecondmessenger,phosphatidicacid(PA),andphosphoinositide
3-kinase (PI3K), generating a distinct set of polyphosphoinositides
(PPI) ph- phorylated at the D3-position of the inositol ring, all
with separate signaling functions.
Sphingolipids,representinganotherimportantgroupofsignalinglipids,
alsocameacross.
Themajorityoftheselipid-basedsignalingpathwayshavebeendiscoveredin
plantcellstoo. Moreover,theyhavebeenfoundtobeactivatedinresponsetoa

plantgrowthanddevelopment.
Whilemanyoftheenzymes,lipids,andtheirtargets involved arewell
conserved, major differences with the mammalian paradigms
havealsoemerged.
Thisbookhighlightsthecurrentstatusofplantlipidsignaling.
Allchaptershave
beenwrittenbyexpertsinthe?eldandcoverinformationforbothbeginnersand

1-3),partII,lipid kinases (Chaps. 4-7), part III, lipid
phosphatases (Chaps. 8-9), part IV, ix x Preface inositolphosphates
and PPI metabolism (Chaps. 10-13), part V, PA signaling (Chaps.
