title: Ethylene signalling: redundant receptors all have their say.
abstract: In Arabidopsis, the hormone ethylene is sensed by five related receptors, all of the 'two-component' variety. The receptors constitutively suppress a downstream signalling pathway, and are inactivated by ethylene, leading to the activation of genes necessary for the various ethylene-regulated biological responses.
