Editing Calmodulin (section)

====Sorghum====
The plant [[sorghum]] is well established model organism and can adapt in hot and dry environments. For this reason, it is used as a model to study calmodulin's role in plants.<ref name="Sanchez_2002" /> Sorghum contains seedlings that express a [[glycine]]-rich [[RNA-binding protein]], SbGRBP. This particular protein can be modulated by using heat as a stressor. Its unique location in the cell nucleus and cytosol demonstrates interaction with calmodulin that requires the use of Ca<sup>2+</sup>.<ref>{{cite journal | vauthors = Singh S, Virdi AS, Jaswal R, Chawla M, Kapoor S, Mohapatra SB, Manoj N, Pareek A, Kumar S, Singh P | display-authors = 6 | title = A temperature-responsive gene in sorghum encodes a glycine-rich protein that interacts with calmodulin | journal = Biochimie | volume = 137 | issue = Supplement C | pages = 115–123 | date = June 2017 | pmid = 28322928 | doi = 10.1016/j.biochi.2017.03.010 }}</ref> By exposing the plant to versatile [[stress (biology)|stress]] conditions, it can cause different [[proteins]] that enable the plant cells to tolerate environmental changes to become repressed. These modulated stress proteins are shown to interact with CaM. The ''CaMBP'' genes [[Gene expression|expressed]] in the sorghum are depicted as a “model crop” for researching the tolerance to heat and [[drought stress]].
